Market

By purchasing this item you can directly exchange 30 for 1500 Alloy Plate.

—In-Game Description

Beginning in Update 9.0 (2013-07-13) materials could be purchased directly from the market for  Platinum.

Notes

• On the Alloy Plate, the five Grineer alphabets literally translates to "armor".
• Before Update 8.0 (2013-05-23), it was more rare (used to drop in stacks no greater than 25).
• Hotfix 18.4.3 (2016-01-27) replaced Alloy Plate Void drops with Ferrite.

Gathering Tips

These are based on opinions and may not be true. These should be viewed as advice for finding the materials until better facts are proven.

• (Mobile) Defense missions are good places to gather materials. While it is unknown whether defense missions have higher drop rates, they do spawn more enemies on average, making the chances for anything to drop higher. Levels underlined are the standard for team farming.
  • Aphrodite, Kiliken, and Tessera on Venus.
  • Casta, Cinxia, and Kiste on Ceres.
  • Berehynia, Charybdis, and Vodyanoi on Sedna.
• Bosses always have higher frequency drops on rarer materials:
  • The Jackal on Fossa, Venus (Level 5-14)
  • Lieutenant Lech Kril and Captain Vor on Exta, Ceres(Level 14-16)
  • Kela De Thaym on Merrow, Sedna(Level 35-40)
• A high ranked Thief's Wit mod can assist in finding materials and marking them for your teammates after you've picked them up.

Trivia

• Alloy Plates are normally used by Heavy and Elite Grineer units, such as Elite Lancers, Napalms, Bombards and all bosses.
