Ember is a nightmare for light-armored targets. Ember can super-heat the air which opens up surprising crowd-control possibilities.

This is Ember, destructive and deadly.

Ember's presence on the battlefield is devastating. Mind the heat, Tenno.

Trivia

Ember is the fourth Frame to have a Prime, after Excalibur, Frost, and Mag.
As seen from concept art and beta game footage, Ember was originally male. Ember was changed to a female in Update 5.3.
Ember is based around the Phoenix and Vermilion firebirds as can be seen by the naming of the helmets and deluxe skin, and the way the feet are designed like bird claws.

CODEX

Three figures waited behind a simple table. Their attention on a single chair, bathed in light. An old woman's voice from the shadow: 'Send her in'. Across the room a security officer, stern and plain, opened the door. The outline of a young woman appeared at the door. She hesitated, but only for an instant, then crossed the room and sat.

There was a gasp as the light hit her face. Her right eye was bright and blinking, but her left was a greasy slit. Her skin had been burned moon-white. Her mouth was a sagging gash without lips or expression. Her military beret was pulled snug over a scarred and hairless scalp.

The old voice: 'Your name is Kaleen.' Kaleen nodded. 'You were the principal investigator of the Zariman?' Kaleen's voice was a jagged whisper, a rigid face. 'Yes.'

Kaleen coughed, straightened: 'The Zariman was lost making the fold from Saturn to the Outer gates. Mechanical failure. I notified families and filled a report with the inspectors. Nothing ever returns from the fold, so I closed the case.'

'But you reopened the case, days later.'

'I didn't believe it myself until I stepped aboard the ship. It was completely intact, full environmental, as if it had never left.'

'And the crew was gone.'

'Not exactly.' Kaleen hesitated. 'We thought it was empty but we began to find...' Her face twitched at remembered pain, 'We began to find children hiding in the ship.'

'And that is when you violated procedure?'

Kaleen bowed her head, a tear welling in her sightless eye. 'They were children. They were afraid. They needed comfort.'

'So you broke quarantine and this happened to you.'

There was silence as Kaleen touched her face, 'So what have you done with them?'

The old woman gestured for the officer to take Kaleen away. The meeting was over. When Kaleen reached the door she twisted out of his grip and shot back, 'Why would you do that? Why did you put children on a military ship?'

'We didn't. That would violate procedure.'

Ember Prime offers the same potential for wanton destruction as Ember but provides unique mod polarities, allowing for greater customization.

Notes

Ember Prime, compared to Ember:
- Higher Shields (125/375 vs. 100/300)
- Higher Armor (125 vs. 100)
- Different Polarities ( vs. )
As a Prime Warframe, Ember Prime possesses a special passive ability where contact with an Orokin Void Death Orb will make them release an energy pulse that grants 250 Energy to all nearby allies. This effect can only occur once per Death Orb, and can occur even if the Death Orb has been previously destroyed.
Ember Prime is the first primed frame to come with only 2 polarized slots, all others come with 3.
- Possesses a and a polarity, compared to Ember's double . Due to the entirely differing base polarities, builds on Ember may not transition as well to her Prime variant without sufficient use of Forma.

Trivia

The golden protrusions on Ember Prime's shoulders are considered customizable Armor parts, and will be removed if any other arm plates are used.
During Archwing missions, the particle effects of Ember Prime's default helmet may disjoint from the helmet if the player is moving fast enough.
As of Update 15.11, Ember Prime is now the fifth Prime Warframe to have a stat boost over the original, having 125 shield and armor as opposed to the 100 of the original Ember.
The debris left behind from a World On Fire explosion is golden, as opposed to the regular debris found on Embers default variant.
In Primetime #124, [DE]Megan stated that her all-time favorite Warframe is Ember Prime.

Ignition

Ember is empowered by flames. Any time Ember suffers a Heat proc, she gains 35% Ability Strength for the duration and regenerates 10 points of Energy for every second she is ablaze.

Ability Strength bonus and energy regen per second are not affected by Mods.
Self-inflicted Heat procs from self-damaging weapons can trigger Ember's passive bonuses.
- Mods that affect Status Effect duration such as Continuous Misery and Perpetual Agony can extend the time Ember remains ablaze from self-inflicted Heat procs.
Energy regeneration from Ignition is paused when World On Fire is active.

Abilities

ENERGY 25 KEY 1	Fireball Charge and release a fiery projectile that ignites enemies on contact and leaves behind a treacherous patch of flame.	Strength:150 / 275 / 300 / 400 (initial damage) 50 / 100 / 125 / 150 (area damage)
		Duration:N/A
		Range:N/A
		Misc:5 m (blast radius)

Ember launches a fiery projectile that inflicts 150 / 275 / 300 / 400 Heat damage on impact with a 100% status chance. The projectile also inflicts 50 / 100 / 125 / 150 Heat damage in a 5 meter area of effect around the target with a 50% status chance.
- All damage is affected by Ability Strength.
- The 5 meter blast radius is not affected by Ability Range.
- Area damage affects the initial target, does not decrease with distance, and can also perform headshots.
Fireball can be charged before launch.
- Launching with a full charge doubles both the initial and area damage.
- A charge circle will be displayed when charging, showing the progress of the charge.
- A full charge takes 2.5 seconds.
- Charge rate is affected by mods that increase casting speed (e.g. Natural Talent). The charge rate can be reduced to a minimum cap of 1.5 seconds.
Fireball leaves a temporary lingering fire similar to the Napalm after hitting a target or a solid object which lasts for 10 seconds.
- The lingering fire deals 20% of Fireball's initial damage on impact.
- The fire's duration is not affected by mods or by charging.
- When launched at full charge, the lingering fire's radius is doubled.
Fireball may be cast multiple times on the same target. However, the Heat DoT does not stack.
Projectile has flight time and will continue to travel until it hits a solid object or enemy.
Will not disrupt Shade's cloak.
Will break reinforced Corpus ship windows.
Casting Fireball is a One-Handed Action that allows the player to perform attacks, movement and parkour Maneuvers.
Has a delay of 0.5 seconds between uses.

Main article: Fireball Frenzy

Fireball Frenzy is a Warframe Augment Mod for Ember that allows Fireball to, instead of charging, be held on cast, creating a wave of energy traveling outward from the user that temporarily grants the caster and nearby allies additional Heat damage to all attacks.

Rank	Heat Damage	Duration	Range	Cost
0	50%	28s	15m	6
1	65%	32s	15m	7
2	80%	36s	15m	8
3	100%	40s	15m	9

This is a good candidate for Fleeting Expertise since the duration is not negatively impacted.
The lingering fire allows the player to deny an area to the enemy or to protect a flank.

Interactive Maximization is not available in Abilities tab, please check the corrisponding ability or Warframe's Maximization

Casting Fireball repeatedly will sometimes cause the ability to not play its animation and to have the fireball appear with no trail.
Casting Fireball repeatedly will sometimes add an inconsistent delay between the casts, delivering lowered damage output.
Standing Toe-to-toe with an enemy and casting Fireball will cause the Fireball veer wildly off course from the intended direction to the Players crosshair.
- This can also cause the fireball to cast through the enemy instead, causing it to go right through them at the point of the crosshair.
Area damage deals double the amount against Crewman and Elite Crewman.

ENERGY 50 KEY 2	Accelerant Stun nearby enemies with strong accelerant. Increases all fire damage dealt.	Strength:1.5x / 1.75x / 2x / 2.5x (damage multiplier)
		Duration:30 s
		Range:8 / 12 / 15 / 20 m
		Misc:50% (cast speed bonus)

Ember releases a wave of accelerant, briefly stunning all enemies within a radius of 8 / 12 / 15 / 20 meters. Against affected enemies, all inflicted Heat damage will be multiplied by 150% / 175% / 200% / 250%. For Ember, casting speed will be increased by 50%. The accelerant lasts for 30 seconds.
- Damage multiplier is affected by Ability Strength. The casting speed bonus is not.
- Accelerant stuns enemies for one to five seconds, depending on the enemy; the stun length is not affected by Ability Duration.
- Accelerant's casting speed buff only influences the caster, and is affected by Ability Duration.
- Range is affected by Ability Range.
The calculation for casting time is:
- $Cast Time = Base Time \div (1 + Speed Bonus)$
- At max rank, expect a ~33% reduction to cast times:
  - $Cast Time = Base Time \div (1 + 0.5)$
  - $= Base Time \div (3/2)$
  - $= Base Time \times (2/3)$
- Animation cast speeds are unchanged, the ability only takes effect earlier independently of the animation.^{[possible bug]}

Main article: Flash Accelerant

Flash Accelerant is a Warframe Augment Mod for Ember that allows Accelerant to affect friendly players within range, increasing their casting speed and giving them bonus Heat damage.

Rank	Casting speed	Heat damage	Cost
0	+20%	+50%	6
1	+30%	+50%	7
2	+40%	+50%	8
3	+50%	+50%	9

All of Ember's abilities other than this ability itself will benefit incredibly as the other 3 abilities entirely do Fire damage.
Combining Accelerant with Banshee's Sonar will increase Fire damage excessively if affected targets are hit specifically on the highlighted spots.
This ability causes mobs to go into the "on-fire stun" effect 100% of the time, which can be used as a panic crowd-control ability, similar to Valkyr's Warcry or Banshee's Sonic Boom.
This ability is most effective when combined with a loadout specialized for Fire damage.
This ability will not increase the damage of combined elements which include a Heat component such as Blast.

Interactive Maximization is not available in Abilities tab, please check the corrisponding ability or Warframe's Maximization

ENERGY 75 KEY 3	Fire Blast Slam the ground to create a wave of plasma that incinerates nearby enemies and forms a persistent ring of fire. Add heat damage to weapons by firing them through the ring.	Strength:66 / 100 / 141 / 200 (wave damage) 37 / 112 / 150 / 225 (ring damage)
		Duration:9 / 12 / 15 / 20 s
		Range:N/A
		Misc:5 / 10 / 12 / 15 m (wave radius) 4 m (ring radius) 100% (status chance) 50% (bonus weapon heat damage)

Ember slams the ground, creating a wave of fire that expands outwards to a radius of 5 / 10 / 12 / 15 meters, dealing 66 / 100 / 141 / 200 Heat damage with a 100% status chance to enemies that make contact with it, and pushing them back. A ring of fire 4 meters wide and 1 meter thick is also created and lasts for 9 / 12 / 15 / 20 seconds. Enemies that linger within the ring's flames are dealt 37 / 112 / 150 / 225 Heat damage per second.
- All damage is affected by Ability Strength.
- The fire ring bypasses obstacles in the environment, but the expanding wave's effects do not.
- Enemies damaged by the expanding wave suffer knockdown and are violently pushed back.
- Damage from the ring is only inflicted within the flames. Enemies are not damaged in the ring's center.
- Ring duration is affected by Ability Duration.
- Wave radius and ring radius are not affected by Ability Range.
Shooting through the flame ring grants +50% Heat damage.
- This damage bonus does not scale with Ability Strength.
- The additional Heat damage is additive to elemental Mods and similar buffs.
  - It will combine with other elements on projectile weapons but not on hitscan weapons.
- Shooting through multiple rings adds 50% Heat damage for each ring.
Can be used while jumping, sliding, flipping, wall-running or wall-clinging.
Has a cast delay of about 0.7 seconds.
Can stack with multiple casts.

Main article: Fire Fright

Fire Fright is a Warframe Augment Mod for Ember that adds Heat status chance to the stationary ring of fire created by Fire Blast.

Rank	Status chance	Cost
0	40%	6
1	60%	7
2	80%	8
3	100%	9

Perfect for placing around the cryopod in Infested Defense missions.
Can be used as protection, when you're reviving a downed teammate in Infested missions.

Interactive Maximization is not available in Abilities tab, please check the corrisponding ability or Warframe's Maximization

Sometimes an enemy may take 2 damage ticks per second instead of just one.
The value for the damage in-game is incorrectly stated as only 150, while both the wave and ring damage are higher.

ENERGY 50 KEY 4	World On Fire Blast nearby foes with a burst of fire, and follow that up with a barrage of fireballs against any enemy who dares approach. Over time, these fireballs burn hotter as they consume more energy. Initial Energy Drain: 3 s^-1 Overheated Energy Drain: 6 s^-1	Strength:250 / 300 / 350 / 400 (initial damage) 500 / 600 / 700 / 800 (overheated damage) 10% / 20% / 25% / 35% (status chance)
		Duration:N/A
		Range:7 / 10 / 12 / 15 m (initial radius) 3.5 / 5 / 6 / 7.5 m (overheated radius)
		Misc:5 (number of targets) 6 s (overheat delay) 9.5 s (overheat buildup)

Ember ignites the environment, slamming her hand into the ground and dealing 250 / 300 / 350 / 400 Heat damage initially to a maximum of 5 enemies within an initial radius of 7 / 10 / 12 / 15 meters. Immediately after, Ember sustains wisps of burning flames in orbit around her, creating an aura that triggers a series of fiery explosions; each explosion inflicts 250 / 300 / 350 / 400 Heat damage to the same maximum number of enemies within a similar range. All instances of damage have a 10% / 20% / 25% / 35% status chance, while explosions occur at a rate of roughly 2 to 4.5 per second.
- Damage and status chance are affected by Ability Strength.
- Initial radius is affected by Ability Range.
- Enemies are prioritized upon World on Fire's activation. Higher priority will be given to enemies that pose the most immediate threat to Ember, such as enemies within close range.
- Explosions will occur directly on enemies as long as they are within the initial radius.
- With the exception of the initial explosions on activation, multiple explosions do not occur simultaneously.
After World on Fire remains active for 6 seconds, Ember's flames begin to overheat over the course of 9.5 seconds. As the flames overheat, damage per explosion gradually increases by 100% while the aura radius shrinks by 50% and energy drain per second increases by 100%.
- Overheat percentage is displayed on the ability icon from 0% to 100%.
- Overheat delay, buildup time, damage bonus, radius reduction, and energy drain rate penalty are not affected by mods.
World on Fire drains 3 energy per second, 6 at full percentage; it will remain active so long as Ember has energy. World on Fire will end if Ember runs out of energy or if deactivated; it can be reactivated by pressing the ability key (default 4 ).
- Activation energy cost is affected by Ability Efficiency, and the channeling energy cost is affected by Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
- Ember cannot replenish energy using Energy Vampire, Rift Plane's innate energy regeneration, Squad Energy Restores, Energy Siphon, Energizing Dash, or Ignition while World on Fire is active.
- World on Fire's energy drain is not converted into shields by Augur Mods.
- Energy can be replenished by Energy Orbs, Arcane Energize, Orokin Void Death Orb energy restores, Rage, and/or Hunter Adrenaline while the ability is active.
- World on Fire won't be deactivated when using Focus Ability or while downed.
Targets all types of enemies (e.g., mining machines, cameras, and turrets) excluding Void Laser Traps and Void Death Orbs.
Can be used while sliding and in the air.
World on Fire's visual aftereffects (debris) will appear gold when cast by Ember Prime.
Flame particle effects from wisps and explosions are affected by Ember's chosen Warframe energy color.

Main article: Firequake

Firequake is a Warframe Augment Mod for Ember that gives World On Fire a chance to Knockdown enemies caught in the flames.

Rank	Knockdown Chance	Cost
0	50%	6
1	65%	7
2	80%	8
3	100%	9

With the Firequake Augment equipped, World On Fire becomes a viable crowd-control ability as it has a 100% chance of knocking down enemies hit by its fire.
Ember's Passive 'Ignition' is especially effective when used with World On Fire as the extra Ability Strength will remain in effect after the initial Burning proc expires as long as that instance of channeling the ability remains active.
