Release Date: December 16, 2015.
Nezha invokes sacred fire and blazing weaponry to invigorate friends, ignite foes and insure himself from damage. Nezha slid in Update 18.1 (2015-12-16)
Acquisition[]
Nezha's blueprints can be researched from the Tenno Lab in the dojo.
Prior to Update 19.0 (2016-11-11), Nezha's main blueprint could be purchased from the Market for 100,000 and its component blueprints were obtained from Sorties, and component blueprints could previously be traded between players.
Trivia[]
- Nezha is the third Warframe that was first introduced as a timed exclusive to Warframe China, after Excalibur Umbra and Wukong.
- In Chinese folklore, Nezha is known as a protection deity and is the third son of Li Jing. He is also known by his title of "Third Lotus Prince", which was bestowed on him following his deification, and his Taoist name of "Marshal of the Central Altar".
- The Warframe's androgynous appearance is a nod to the deity's youthful appearance, which belied his reputation as a trickster. To clear out any confusion regarding this, Digital Extremes has stated that the Warframe is male. [1]
- The rings that adorn the Warframe's body (and are used for some of his abilities) are also references to Nezha's lore;
- The rings on his ankles (which are activated when Fire Walker is in use) are known as the Feng Huo Lun (also known as Wind and Fire Wheels), which he stood upon, in order to move off the ground.
- The ring on his back (which is utilized when casting Blazing Chakram) is known as the Universe Ring while the spears summoned by casting Divine Spears seem to be derived from the Fire-tipped Spear. Both artifacts were bestowed by his teacher Taiyi Zhenren.
- Nezha appears in Journey to the West, under the command of his father Li Jing. In the story, Li Jing's troops (among other forces) are summoned to fight Sun Wukong after the latter rebels against the Jade Emperor. Nezha is among those Wukong defeats after a three-day long battle, but the two befriend each other and Nezha would assist Wukong and his friends during their travels.
- Prior to Update 19.0 (2016-11-11), Nezha's component blueprints were obtained via Sortie rewards. Furthermore Nezha was the first and only non-Prime Warframe whose component part blueprints could be traded between players. Since the update trading is no longer possible.
- The quote "Nezha is a burning thing, and he makes a fiery ring." from Nezha's profile video is a quote from Johnny Cash's song, Ring of Fire.

Passive[]
Nezha has reduced friction on the ground, preserving momentum gained from movement for far longer; this makes Nezha capable of especially long slides. It has a reduced effect from cooperative missions.
