Exalted Weapons are special weapons that are summoned by certain Warframes upon activating their corresponding special ability, which they can use in place of their standard weapons. These weapons can be individually modded identical to other weapons to further increase their power unlike traditional Warframe abilities, while still benefiting from Power Strength mods and buffs like normal abilities. These weapons do not utilize ammunition and instead consume energy, either per shot or continuously while active.
Warframes are unable to use their primary, secondary and melee weapons while an Exalted Weapon is active, and certain mods like cannot be equipped on them. Exalted Weapons also cannot benefit from Riven Mods which are not generated for these weapons.
All Exalted Weapons come pre-built with an Orokin Catalyst (regardless of whether the Warframe has an Orokin Reactor or not), and can be Polarized with Forma.
