- The Vengeful Trickster Ephemera has a more pronounced effect in-game than what is depicted below due to filesize restrictions.

Notes[]
- Ephemera will inherit the color of the Warframe's attachments energy color, rather than the emissive color.
- An exception to this is Vengeful Shockwave Ephemera which the stones are not affected by any color selection. The beams of light coming off the stones can be colored using the Warframe's Energy color. However, it is affected by Rhino's Iron Skin by which it can change color according to the Warframe's tint color if Iron Skin was cast by Rhino Prime, just like the owner.
- A few ephemera also inherit the color of the Warframe's attachments accents color: the dragon bodies of Baurahn Prime, the arms of the Raptwing ephemera, and the various arm/knee spikes from the Seraphayre ephemera.
- All Ephemera and their blueprints are untradeable. The Vengeful and Sisters Ephemera are partial exceptions to this; while they cannot be traded by themselves, players can trade Converted Liches/Sisters who possess them, to others.
- The Ephemera will be awarded to both the original progenitor of the Lich/Sister, and the buyer of the Converted Lich/Sister.
Trivia[]
- The Sister Ephemeras project Corpus lettering and iconography:
- Gloriana, Zarina, and Lucretia translate to "Power In Prosperity, Prosperity In Victory".
- Sybillina translate to "Analysing Projected Revenue Forecast" and "Integrating Offset Sector Income Differential".
Bugs[]
- The Frostfall and Spinneret Ephemera will persist visually on an Operator in the Orbiter by simply previewing them. Even if neither are equipped they will both visually persist at the same time until leaving and returning to Operator mode, and is only bugged on the Orbiter itself.
- The Eros Wings Ephemera's light trails persist when other Ephemeras are previewed within the menu until the Arsenal is left.
- The Kaminari Ephemera is visually affected by certain sigils

- Fixed Spore Ephemera FX appearing as rectangles for Ash’s Bladestorm clones.
Hotfix 29.3.1 (2020-11-04)
- Baurahn Prime Ephemera Changes & Fixes
We were originally a little conservative with the Baurahn Prime Ephemera as to not visually overwhelm. Based on your feedback post launch we’ve made a few changes:
- Aggressively reduced required idle times for the dragons to trigger.
- Enabled Energy colouring for the dragons metal textures.
- Previously the metal parts of the dragons were locked as gold. Now it takes the primary Energy colour, and if you have the secondary unlocked, the Energy element of the dragons will favour that - so you can colour the metal with the primary and the Energy with the secondary.
- Increased scale of the smaller dragons.
- Fixed the Baurahn Prime Ephemera FX playing when in Navigation view, which can be visually overwhelming.
Update 28.3 (2020-08-12)
- Fixed some Ephemera FX lingering when viewing Market screens.
Update 28.0 (2020-06-11)
- The Blazing Step Ephemera has been removed from the Elite Sanctuary Onslaught rewards table and added to two places:
- Arbitration Honors Store in the Relay
- Railjack Commander Boss Drop Tables (5%)
- Out of the growing list of Ephemeras, Blazing Step was the more difficult to obtain due to its drop rate within the Elite Sanctuary Onslaught table. By taking Blazing Step out of the ESO table, the rewards within ESO will normalize and fill in the missing 1.01%. You now have the option to either spend your Vitus Essence in the Arbitrations Honor Store or by bringing demise to Railjack Commanders during your Railjack missions.
Update 27.4 (2020-05-01)
- Fixed some flickering on the Ki'teer Ephemera as it wasn't properly using the Attachment Energy color.
Hotfix 27.3.11 (2020-04-09)
- Fixed Step-based Ephemeras not working on Titania Prime.
Hotfix 27.3.9 (2020-04-07)
- Fixed the game possibly having high memory usage if someone was spawning Spore Ephemera in the other room and the game wasn't properly cleaning up due to the player being out of sight.
Update 27.3 (2020-03-24)
- Fixed the Spore Ephemera not scaling when in Archwing.
Hotfix 27.2.2 (2020-03-06)
- Fixed Attachment Energy colors not properly applying to certain particle systems. (mainly an Ephemera issue). As reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1172621-vengeful-toxin-ephemera-colour-slots-bugged-since-update/
Update 27.2 (2020-03-05)
- Fixed the Vengeful Pull Ephemera being way too bright after customizing it and not inheriting Archwing scaling.
- Fixed the Spore Ephemera showing the outline of Nidus’ wings in his Mutated state before he has enough stacks for them to actually show.
- Fixed walk trail (Burning Step, Frozen Step, Fae Path, etc.) Ephemeras spawning half of the FX when equipped on a Warframe with Wisp’s floating animations.
Hotfix 27.0.12 (2020-01-23)
- Tenebrous Ephemera is now obtained from Little Duck using a token system.
- Fixed the Vengeful Charge Ephemera providing constant light source for Mirage's Eclipse, resulting in a cosmetic granting the light buff to remain 99% of the time.
Hotfix 27.0.11 (2020-01-16)
- Tenebrous Ephemera Removal and Future Acquisition:
TEMPORARILY removed the Tenebrous Ephemera as a drop from Reinforced Sentient Containers aboard the Sentient Anomaly in Veil Proxima. The drop method is causing numerous issues in terms of connectivity stability and player frustration. We’re going to be changing the acquisition method that won’t involve a direct drop rate in a near future Hotfix/Update, and will instead be closer to a token system (complete X Anomaly missions to buy Ephemera from a vendor).
- The Tenebrous Ephemera will be coming back as soon as possible in a better acquisition method
- Fixes:
- Fixed overzealous particle sizes on the Naberus, Corposant Prime, and Spore Ephemeras when in Archwing.
