Notes
- Considering the resources required to craft the necessary non-Chroma Warframe parts, the total cost of crafting Chroma is 4
Neural Sensors, 3 Neurodes, 2 Argon Crystals, 2 Morphics, 1 Control Module, 1300 Rubedo, 1000 Ferrite, 900 Nano Spores, 650 Polymer Bundles, 600 Plastids, 550 Salvage, 400 Oxium, 300 Alloy Plates, and 135,000. - While players will have access to most of the component blueprints by the time they reach Pluto, players will still have to gain access to Sedna to get Saryn systems from Kela De Thaym to craft Chroma.
- When editing the appearance of Chroma, there is a special option to view him without his Effigy on.
- Completing the steel path junctions will not reward you with components for a second time
Trivia
- Chroma was first revealed during Tennolive 2015 and hinted at during Devstreams 45 and 46.
- Chroma shares a similar name with an enemy from Digital Extremes' 2008 game darkSector.
- The word Chroma means "Color" in Greek. His name likely refers to his unique gameplay mechanic that his selected emissive color determines the elemental damage type dealt by his abilities.
- His name may also refer to Chromatic Dragons from the popular role-playing game "Dungeons & Dragons", whose elemental affinities are, similarly, indicated by the color of their scales. This connection was hinted by Community Manager Rebecca Ford in livestreams prior to Chroma's unveiling.
- Chroma was originally developed simply under the name Dragon and is still referred to as such internally in the game files.
- Chroma is the second tallest Warframe due to his stature and the pelt he wears. Limbo is the tallest, due to his "top hat."
- Chroma's Drac Helmet shows Chroma's actual helmet, the only one to do so while Effigy is inactive. The 'head' of the pelt rests on top of Chroma's base helmet in a fashion similar to that of cloaks capes or hats of skinned animals where the upper part of the head and snout is used as a hat.
- The helmet also resembles a seahorse. The Leafy Sea Dragon and Weedy Sea Dragon are both closely related to seahorses.
- Its appearance seems inspired by the Greek depiction of dragons, most notably the snout, which appears thinner in contrast to the typical European dragon. This is further backed by the fact that Chroma's name has a Greek origin.
- Chroma is the second Warframe to have a separable part, the first being Limbo.
- In Chroma's case, his outer pelt separates from his body during his 4th ability, Effigy, to create the sentry. Because the sentry's helmet design is determined by the cosmetic helmet selected for the Chroma warframe, this also reveals Chroma's "true" helmet which is not affected by the helmet selected.
- Following the above notes, Chroma presumably wears his dragon-skin outer pelt like a hunter might do for animal skin.
- In Chroma's case, his outer pelt separates from his body during his 4th ability,
- The line in Lotus' summary, "When all the land is in ruins, Tenno, only Chroma will remain" is a reference to the song about the character Trogdor, a fictional dragon-like being from the web cartoon Homestar Runner.
- Chroma is another in the line of heavily fan-requested warframes (such as Zephyr, Nova, and Mesa), with inspiration being drawn from a long-surviving thread on the Fan Concepts forum.
- When equipped with Tonfa-type weapons (ex. Kronen), Chroma stores them on his back with the weapon's blades running nearly parallel each other, rather than diverging outward as with other Warframes. Chroma is currently the only Warframe to store Tonfas in this manner, and the second Warframe to have a unique holster style for a melee weapon, with the first being Nekros when stowing Dual Daggers.
- Chroma has the fourth highest armor value of any Warframe at 350, surpassed by Atlas at 450, Valkyr at 600 and Valkyr Prime at 700.
- Chroma is the first and only Warframe whose component blueprints are acquired from Junctions.
- Chroma is the first and only Warframe to require components from other Warframes to construct.
- It is also the first Warframe whose blueprint uses a fourth Warframe component in the place of a resource like Orokin Cells or Argon Crystals.
- The increased credit drop chance from enemies killed by Chroma's 4th ability, Effigy, may be a reference to common legends of dragons hoarding gold.
- On release, a bug allowed Chroma to double end of mission credit rewards for all allies on missions with no extraction, chiefly Defense and Interception. His release coinciding with a double credit weekend, with a credit booster more than 1.3 million credits was obtainable from The Law of Retribution. Removed in Hotfix 16.1.4.1 (2015-03-29).
- Chroma's default helmet (along with the default helmets of Loki and Excalibur) are available as unlockable antenna toppers in Rocket League.
- Chroma appears to have six fingers, but the digit coming out from his hand is actually a part of his effigy.
- Chroma is the first know Warframe to be controlled by faction other than the Tenno, in this case is the Infested, and being hostile toward the players.
- When or how Chroma comes into this circumstance is unknown.
- Chroma is the third quest-driven Warframe that has a Prime variant, after Mirage and Limbo.
“Market forces dictate that you need to evolve or die.”

The Void Relics for this item have been removed from the drop tables and do not drop during gameplay at this time. Vaulted Void Relics already contained in player inventories are not affected and can still be either opened or traded between players.

- Higher Energy (200/300 vs. 150/225)

Prime attachments
Vaultings
- On June 30th, 2020, it was announced that Chroma Prime would enter the Prime Vault and be retired from the reward tables on July 14th, 2020, along with Gram Prime and Rubico Prime. Any preexisting components or fully-built frames will remain as is.
Passive
Chroma possesses an extra midair jump and bullet jump. Wings matching Chroma's energy colors will form during these maneuvers.
Chroma can alter his abilities to match any basic (uncombined) elemental attribute of the player's choice. Customizing Chroma's primary emission color determines what abilities he starts with. Color choices are grouped into four categories with each category corresponding to a given element:
- red, magenta, brown, orange and bright yellow hues being Heat;
- blue and purple hues being Electricity;
- green, lime, teal and dark yellow hues being Toxin;
- white, grey, black, and some faded colors being Cold.
Note that players do not need to purchase color palettes to unlock the full potential of this trait.
While customizing his emission color, Chroma's active element is displayed in the form of an icon (
Heat, 
Electricity, 
Toxin, 
Cold). This imgur album can serve as a reference for future color palette purchases.
Customizing the secondary emission and the energy colors will have no effect on Chroma's chosen element.
Abilities can be cycled mid-mission using

- Fixed an issue where Chroma would deal no damage with Vex Armor active. While this may sound like a simple fix, if you're a Chroma user please read on!
- Solving Vex Armor actually takes as back to Chroma's beginning. On original power creation, we used some less-than-ideal calculation methods to create Scorn and Fury's effects. If you are an avid Chroma user, you probably know the power maximizing this ability brings. At some point in Chroma's future we will need to revisit and use ideal methods for his Abilities; we will inform you well in advance when Chroma is under review. As you may or may not know, Oberon is currently under review at this time!
