Enemy Body Parts

Certain Enemy Body Parts will apply damage multipliers to incoming damage that is inflicted on them. These special enemy body parts are specific to each enemy type, and the multipliers are applied to all damage inflicted, independent of their damage type. Targeting these body parts will also completely bypass their Shield Gating.

	3 25	Thurible Channel Harrow’s energy into the Thurible to generate a buff. Once finished, kill enemies to bestow nearby allies with bursts of energy. The more energy channeled the greater the reward for each kill. Headshots produce extra energy. Introduced in Update 21.0 (2017-06-29)	Strength:10 / 10.83 / 12.5 / 15% (energy convert)
			Duration:20 / 25 / 30 / 35 s
			Range:13 / 15 / 17 / 20 m
			Misc: 4.0x (headshot multiplier)

• Info
• Augment
• Tips & Tricks

Info

• Harrow chants in ritual to channel 25 Energy into the thurible at a rate of 10 / 10.83 / 12.5 / 15% of the base energy consumed per tick.
  •  Ability Efficiency will not reduce the stored energy gained per tick.
• Pressing the ability key again (default 3 ) or running out of energy stops the channeling, causing the thurible to generate an aura of incense around Harrow with a radius of 13 / 15 / 17 / 20 meters that lasts for 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 seconds. While active, each enemy killed by Harrow restores the charged amount of energy to Harrow and all allies inside his aura; if an enemy is killed by headshot, the amount of energy restored per player is multiplied by 4.
  • Energy per kill uses the following expression when accounting for Ability Strength and Ability Efficiency:
    Energy Per Kill = 1 + [Energy Channeled × 15% ÷ (2 - Ability Efficiency)] × Ability Strength
    • With a maxed  Intensify and maxed  Streamline, draining 25 energy will yield 1 + [25 × 15% ÷ (2 - 130%)] × 130% = 7.9643 energy per kill and ~7.9 × 4 = 31.8 energy per headshot kill.
  • Duration is affected by Ability Duration.
  • Aura radius is affected by Ability Range.
  • Channeling speed is affected by Casting Speed.
  • Enemies killed anywhere by Harrow using ranged and melee weapons will reward energy; weapons with deployables such as the  Zenistar are also eligible to reward energy from indirect kills.
  • Players using toggled abilities that drain energy per second can not gain energy from Thurible.
• While channeling energy into the thurible, the current amount of energy per kill is displayed to the right of the aiming reticle. The color of the text and stylized art are affected by Harrow's chosen Warframe energy color.
• Thurible's buff icon is displayed beside the shield and health indicators on the HUD, with the amount of energy per kill indicated below the buff icon.
• Upon killing an enemy via body-shot or headshot, a brief message displays above the ability icons indicating the total amount of energy restored per kill or per headshot kill.
• Channeling Thurible is a two-handed upper body animation that disables weapon use, casting other abilities and Pickups collection, but allows player movement and parkour Maneuvers.
• Can be recast while aura is active to channel energy. Channeling ends the previous instance of Thurible.
• While active, Harrow is surrounded in a glow of energy and his incense aura is constantly visible to all players. Both visual effects are affected by his chosen Warframe energy color.

Augment

Main article: Warding Thurible

Warding Thurible is a Warframe Augment Mod for  Harrow that reduces damage taken by allies within  Thurible's range when channeled, and grants extra energy charge if those Allies are hit.

Warding Thurible

Tips & Tricks

• While channeling Thurible, you can still move and use parkour maneuvers such as roll, slide, bullet jump, aim glide, wall hop and wall cling to evade incoming enemy attacks.
• Mod for Ability Strength and Ability Efficiency to increase the conversion rate per energy point spent. Natural Talent and Speed Drift greatly increase the speed at which each energy point is drained.
•  Flow (and  Primed Flow) synergize with this ability. Higher maximum energy allows you to channel even stronger buffs, at the cost of longer channeling time.
• Use  Condemn to stop enemies in their tracks, allowing for easy headshot kills to maximize energy gain.
• When under heavy fire, channel Thurible while under the protection of  Covenant to guarantee your safety.
• Dark energy colors can greatly improve visibility for long range shooting due to Thurible's incense aura being constantly visible to you and your team.
  • However, lighter energy colors can allow teammates to spot the area of effect at a glance and rally to your position for energy restoration.
• This is most likely a bug, but channeling the Thurible allows Harrow to use his melee with a Gravimag deployed Arch-Gun.

	4 100	Covenant Protect nearby allies with an energy force that absorbs all damage and converts it to a Critical Chance bonus for all those under the Covenant. Headshots are amplified even further. Introduced in Update 21.0 (2017-06-29)	Strength:5% (base critical chance) 1.50% (critical chance per 100 damage)
			Duration:3 / 4 / 5 / 6 s (invulnerability time) 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 s (critical chance time)
			Range:N/A
			Misc: 4.0x (headshot multiplier to bonus critical chance) 50% (bodyshot critical chance cap) 200% (headshot critical chance cap) 50/250 m (affinity range/open-world affinity range)

• Info
• Augment
• Tips & Tricks

Info

• Harrow expends 100 energy to break free of his shackles in a whirlwind of impenetrable energy, imbuing himself and allies inside his Affinity Range with complete Invulnerability to damage and Status Effects for 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 seconds. While invulnerable, any enemy damage prevented by all affected players during this time accumulates into a total pool.
  • Affinity Range is not affected by  Ability Range but is affected by Fosfor and  Vazarin's  Mending Unity.
• After the invulnerability phase, all affected players receive the Retaliation buff which provides an additive weapon Critical Chance bonus lasting for 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 seconds. Retaliation provides a 5% base critical chance, plus extra critical chance converted from total damage prevented at a rate of 1.50% per 100 damage points prevented. Additionally, the combined critical chance percentage is multiplied by 4 on headshot hits.
  • Critical chance bonus is capped at 50% on bodyshot hits and 200% on headshot hits.
  • The critical chance applied to the weapons is a flat value applied after mods.
    • Example: A weapon with 10% base critical chance which has a Rank 5  Point Strike equipped and is affected by a capped Retaliation buff will have
      10% × (1 +  150%) + 200% = 225% critical chance on headshot.
• Protection and Retaliation buffs affect both players and their Companions.
• Covenant cannot be recast while its buffs are active.
  • Multiple Harrows can cast Covenant independently of other players' active invulnerability and critical chance buffs.
• Casting animation of 3 seconds is affected by Casting Speed. Casting Covenant is a full-body animation that stops Harrow's movement and actions.
• During the invulnerability phase, the current total of damage prevented is displayed to the right of the aiming reticle, represented by a shield-like emblem.
  • After the invulnerability phase, the critical chance bonus and its headshot multiplied percentage are briefly displayed at the same position, represented by a bullet-like emblem.
  • An audible whispering sound plays when each buff's duration ends.
• Covenant's buff icons for invulnerability and critical chance are displayed beside the shield and health indicators, with the critical chance bonus percentage located at the top-right of the icon and buff timers at the bottom.
• Harrow and affected allies are visibly surrounded by a gust of energy while under Covenant's effects. This visual effect expands or contracts depending on the phases of the ability, and is affected by Harrow's chosen Warframe energy color.

Augment

Main article: Lasting Covenant

Lasting Covenant is a Warframe Augment Mod for  Harrow that increases  Covenant's critical chance buff duration each time an enemy is killed with a headshot.

Lasting Covenant

Tips & Tricks

• It synergizes well with abilities that buff critical damage, such as  Electric Shield.
• Also pairs well with the  Dual Toxocyst since they are at their optimal power when you are getting headshots.
• Since the critical chance applied is additive, this ability can turn a  Nukor modded with  Primed Target Cracker (and possibly other critical damage mods such as a Riven) into a viable critical secondary.
• As Covenant's critical chance buff is capped, Harrow may opt to build on Ability Duration over Ability Strength, as not only does the increased invulnerability protect him longer, the damage he negates during the extended invulnerability phase can be enough for him to cap the aftermath Retaliation buff.
• Stacks with  Arcane Avenger, resulting in an additive +95% critical chance on bodyshot and +245% on headshot with both effects maxed.
• Casting this while attempting to revive a teammate makes for a reliable survival strategy, as the invulnerability phase will protect you from enemy fire.
• If the mission has Environmental Hazards, like the toxic waste in the Grineer Shipyard tileset, you can use them to stack extra damage negation during the invulnerability phase.
• Covenant synergizes well with a Kitgun equipped with  Pax Seeker, with its projectiles gain benefits for critical chance to headshot from this ability.
  • However, headshot kills by Pax Seeker's projectiles won't trigger  Lasting Covenant augmentation.

• Lycath's Hunt

	3 75	Lycath's Hunt (TAP) Lycath hunts to sustain the pack. There is a chance for enemies killed by melee attacks to drop health orbs and enemies killed by headshots to supply energy orbs. Increase the duration of Lycath's hunt by killing enemies affected by 5 or more Status Effects. (HOLD) Lycath guards Voruna with increased Heavy Attack efficiency. Introduced in Update 32.2 (2022-11-30)	Strength:N/A
			Duration:8 / 12 / 16 / 20 s (duration) + 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 s (extra time per conditional kill)
			Range:N/A
			Misc: 100% (health orb drop chance on melee kill) 100% (energy orb drop chance on headshot kill) ≥5 (number of statuses for extra time) 60 s (duration cap) +100% (passive heavy attack efficiency)
			Subsumable to Helminth

• Info
• Tips & Tricks

Info

• Lycath tracks down his prey's scent as he scavenges for sustenance to feed the wolf pack. Voruna expends 75 energy and embraces her huntress' instinct for 8 / 12 / 16 / 20 seconds, drawing lifeblood and energy from her prey's demise. While active, each enemy killed by Voruna's melee attacks has a 100% chance to drop a Health Orb, while each enemy directly killed by Voruna's headshot hits has a 100% chance to drop an Energy Orb. Kill an enemy affected by at least 5 Status Effects to extend Lycath's Hunt's remaining duration by 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 seconds, up to a maximum duration capped at 60 seconds.
• Hold down the ability button (default 3 ) to command Lycath to guard Voruna, changing her passive to a permanent 100% Heavy Attack Efficiency bonus to her melee weapon for no energy cost.
  • Since heavy attack efficiency is hard-capped to 90%, the extra 10% is only visible and viable when equipped with a Riven Mod that features a reduction in heavy attack efficiency (as it will subtract from the full 100% efficiency).
• Ability Synergy:
  • Voruna remains invisible when casting Lycath's Hunt during  Shroud of Dynar.
  •  Fangs of Raksh stacks and spreads 5 different types of status effects on enemies to extend Lycath's Hunt on kill.
  •  Ulfrun's Descent's direct lunge and its  Slash status effect are considered a melee attack to proc Lycath's Hunt's Health Orb drops. Radial Slash damage does not count.
• Cannot be recast while active.
• Lycath visually idles upon Voruna's left upper thigh. His distinct physical features are the forward-facing spikes above his skull and his nose ring.
• Voruna visually swipes and sharpens her claws with a menacing gesture. While active, shadowy tendrils emit from her upper body.
• Subsuming Voruna to the Helminth will offer Lycath's Hunt and its augments to be used by other Warframes.
  • However, Subsumed Lycath's Hunt orb drop rate is reduced to 50% and cannot activate the passive.

Tips & Tricks

•  Cedo's Alternate Fire can proc numerous different status effects to assist in prolonging Lycath's Hunt duration.
• Activate Lycath's Hunt before engaging in melee to provide Voruna an indirect means of self-healing with the greatly increased drop of Health orbs.
• The increased Orb drop rate allows Voruna to effectively make use of  Health Conversion,  Energy Conversion,  Equilibrium,  Arcane Energize,  Arcane Eruption,  Arcane Pulse, and  Arcane Blessing.
  •  Equilibrium is particularly suited for a melee-centric Voruna, as she can quickly regenerate her Energy reserves by picking dropped Health orbs from slain enemies and keep hammering others with her other abilities.
• For generating Energy Orbs with Lycath's Hunt, use weapons that allow easy kills with headshots such as sniper rifles,  Scourge's alt-fire, a raised-aim  Akarius, or Incarnon form of  Dual Toxocyst.

Notes

• Certain weapons do not have bonus damage on headshots, always defaulting to the 1x multiplier:
  •  Arca Plasmor ( Tenet)
  •  Alternox's primary fire
  • Catchmoon
  •  Fulmin in semi-auto mode
  •  Lex Incarnon Genesis
  •  Nataruk's charged and perfect shots
  •  Paris Incarnon Genesis
  •  Stropha's shots
  •  Electricity and  Gas status procs
• Most Headshot bonuses stack their effects additively. For example, a  Daikyu using  Primary Deadhead and  Amalgam Daikyu Target Acquired on an enemy with a 3x headshot multiplier will have a 3 * (1 +  30% +  75%) = 6.15x headshot multiplier.
• Radial parts of all Area of Effect Weapons have a 1x headshot multiplier and additionally cannot trigger headshot conditions.
  • This does not apply to the projectile itself, such as  Kuva Bramma's arrows or  Kuva Chakkhurr's precision shots.

Patch History

Update 32.0 (2022-09-07)

Headshot Damage Changes

During playtesting, the ammo changes alone weren’t enough to significantly change things for AoE weapons. So instead of tightening these values to be overly restrictive, we chose to address other factors that make these weapons so strong, such as headshot damage.

Our approach here is two-fold, to reduce the impact of headshots for AOE weapons, but to also make precision headshots pack a larger punch overall.

• Radial damage no longer gains extra headshot damage or triggers headshot conditions.
  • This is primarily targeted at the Ignis Wraith - as a “flamethrower” weapon, it’s hard to imagine a blanket of elements being precise enough to target weak points specifically. Explosive projectiles themselves can still land headshots, so there is still a reason to aim with most weapons for maximum damage.
• Increased the base damage multiplier on headshots from 2x to 3x.
  • This means precision weapons are more rewarded for skillful usage, leveling the playing field even further!

Update 21.0 (2017-06-29)

• Corpus Ospreys can now receive headshots! You may now unleash devastating shots to their “faces”.
