CODEX

The best defense is a good offense. Hildryn draws from her Shields to fuel her abilities, while Energy recharges her Shields.

Drawing from her shields like a battery, her defensive and offensive utility are unparalleled. This is Hildryn, the domina of armament.

In the sky or on the ground, Hildryn fills her victims full of dread.

—Lotus

Release Date: March 7th, 2019

Reinforced by her stalwart physique, the Herculean cyborg, Hildryn, fortifies her allies' defenses as enemy barricades crumble beneath her overwhelming might. Rocket skyward at full thrust, achieve atmospheric flight, and launch shield-powered warheads to raze the battlefield with heavy artillery firepower. Hildryn first rained death from above on March 7th, 2019 during Operation: Buried Debts.

Acquisition

Hildryn's main blueprint can be bought from Little Duck for 5,000 Standing 5,000 upon reaching the rank of Agent with Vox Solaris. Hildryn's component blueprints can be acquired from Exploiter Orb.

Item	Source	Chance	Expected	Nearly Guaranteed
Systems Blueprint	Exploiter Orb	22.56%	~ 4 Kills	27 ± 9 Kills
Chassis Blueprint	Exploiter Orb	38.72%	~ 2 Kills	14 ± 4 Kills
Neuroptics Blueprint	Exploiter Orb	38.72%	~ 2 Kills	14 ± 4 Kills

All drop rates data is obtained from DE's official drop tables. See Mission Rewards#Standard Missions for definitions on reward table rotations. Drop chances are rounded to two decimal places, following the official drop tables repository.
Expected means a player can expect to obtain at least one of a drop every N attempts on average.
Nearly Guaranteed refers to the total number of attempts a player needs to obtain a 1 in 10^2,3, and 4 probability not to have recieved a single drop (99%, 99.9%, and 99.99% probability to have received at least one drop).
The combined probability of multiple drops is 1 - ((1-A%) * (1-B%) * ...) (add drops in same rotation)

Notes

If Hildryn wields her signature Larkspur in Atmospheric mode, the weapon holds an additional 300 reserve ammo, for a total of 700.
Hildryn has the highest base shields out of all Warframes in the game: 450 and 1,575 at rank 30.
- When taking overshields into consideration, Hildryn is the Warframe with the second highest total shield value, behind Harrow.
Hildryn, along with Lavos, boasts the lowest base energy out of all Warframes in the game, having none at all.

While piloting a Railjack, Hildryn will use her own shields in place of energy to power the Railjack's activated abilities.
- The cost in shields is ten times that of the cost in energy. Furthermore, each usage of an ability increases that abilities' cost by an increment proportional to its cost; after the last use of the ability the cost will begin to decline until it reaches the original value.
- The speed of reduction is the same for most or all Railjack abilities resulting in longer wait times for higher cost abilities while lower cost abilities are restored within a few seconds.

Tips

As a Warframe with large Shield capacity, Hildryn gains a lot of benefits from Guardian and Arcane Enhancements affecting Shields, namely Arcane Aegis and Arcane Barrier.
As with other Warframes with high shield values, Hildryn also benefits well from Adaptation, essentially increasing the amount of damage her shields can absorb.
Hildryn can absorb a higher amount of damage while being airborne with Aegis Storm, by equipping Aerodynamic, Agility Drift and/or Aviator.
- This can be further increased by the Boreal's set bonus, equipping Boreal's Anguish and Boreal's Hatred in Hildryn and Boreal's Contempt in a Polearm.
Hildryn's lack of energy makes her an ideal Warframe to use in missions where energy regeneration would be severely hampered, such as in Nightmare Mode missions with the Energy Drain modifier, or Energy Reduction Modifiers in Sorties.
- Conversely, Hildryn should not be brought on missions that severely affect shields, such as the No Shields Nightmare Mode modifier.
- In Rathuum and The Index where Tenno start with no energy, Hildryn can immediately utilize her abilities.
Hildryn's reliance on shields instead of energy for abilities means that she does not suffer from energy loss caused by energy drain attacks and abilities, such as from Parasitic Eximus units and Sensor Bars.
- Conversely, due to her lack of energy, all energy interactions other than energy orbs provide no benefit for her, such as Trinity's Energy Vampire, Energy Siphon, Rage/ Hunter Adrenaline, Quick Thinking/ Gladiator Finesse, Zenurik Focus, or Arcane Energize.
Decaying Dragon Key may sound like an undesirable choice for a shield focused Warframe, but reducing maximum shield capacity will allow her Shield Wall passive to recharge faster. Combining it with shield recharge mods like Fast Deflection and Arcanes like Arcane Aegis can allow for shields to recharge quickly during the invulnerability period, putting Hildryn in an invulnerability loop if Arcane Aegis is triggered often enough.
- This particular build will severely hamper Hildryn's ability to cast powers however, due to the greatly reduced shield pool from which to draw shields to fuel her powers.
Having a Sentinel/MOA (Companion) with Guardian can allow for Hildryn's shields to instantly recharge upon depletion, effectively resetting her Shield Wall passive.
- Equipping Shield Charger is also useful for boosting shield regeneration and providing temporary additional shields and overshields.
- Both Guardian and Shield Charger have a cooldown of 30 seconds.
Hildryn has significantly reduced effectiveness against the Infested as they often lack armor or shields for her to Pillage and replenish her own shields.
- This weakness can be circumvented with Balefire Surge or Blazing Pillage.

Despite the caveats, Hildryn's passive ability allows for a dramatic increase in the frequency of Railjack ability use. Mods increasing max shields and the rate of shield regeneration further increase this advantage.

Trivia

Hildryn was first revealed in Devstream 122 along with Wisp, sharing space in the same concept art.
Hildr is an Old Norse word for "battle".
- Hildr is also a valkyrie in Norse mythology, attested in the Prose Edda.
Hildryn is the 39th Warframe to be released (excluding Primed and Umbra variants).
Hildryn is the second Warframe whose blueprint can be acquired from a syndicate, Vox Solaris, using standing, the first being Baruuk.
- Unlike Baruuk, Hildryn's component blueprints cannot be acquired from Vox Solaris. Instead, they are dropped from the Exploiter Orb.
- She is the first Warframe whose component blueprints are dropped from a Landscape's boss.
- She is also the first Warframe whose component blueprint acquisition method depends on a recurring Event, Thermia Fractures (also see Operation: Buried Debts).
Each of Hildryn's component requires 2 Lazulite Toroids to build, for total of 6 Lazulite Toroids. Considering each Lazulite Toroid provides 12,000 Standing 12,000 and her main blueprint costs 5,000 Standing 5,000, Hildryn is the most expensive in terms of syndicate standing, worth 77,000 Standing 77,000 in total.
Hildryn is the first Warframe that does not use energy for any abilities, later followed by Lavos.
- Also, Hildryn is the third Warframe to use an alternate resource for her abilities, after Nidus and Baruuk and later Gauss. In Hildryn's case, she uses her shields.
The Orokin script on her default helmet reads "shield maiden".
Hildryn is the second Warframe with unique rolling animations, the first being Limbo. She instead deploys "wings" from her shoulders and launches herself forward a short distance, similar to Rhino's Rhino Charge.
Hildryn is the first Warframe to have an Exalted Weapon as a first ability, immediately available from Unranked.
- Other Warframes with Exalted Weapons have theirs as a fourth ability, available at rank 10 and onward.
Hildryn is the first Warframe to have an Arch-gun, Larkspur, as a Signature Weapon.
- The Larkspur is her only signature weapon, however she also possess an Exalted Weapon, the Balefire Charger.
Hildryn is the second Warframe that can be airborne via a channeled ability, Aegis Storm, the first being Titania.

Bugs

Hildryn can't use most of the normal interactions that drain energy from Warframes, such as the energy draining hall in Lua Spy missions and puzzles, due to having zero energy.

Edit Tab

Passive

Hildryn utilizes her advanced Shielding systems to power all of her abilities. Although she has no Energy capacity, her shields boast additional passive benefits and defensive capabilities:

Hildryn's Shield Gating is more advanced than other Warframes, bolstering her defenses:
- Overshields protect Hildryn's Health pool from damage types that normally bypass shields to directly affect health, such as Toxin damage and Combat Discipline's health loss per kill.
- When her Overshield pool is depleted, any excess damage from the last hit is negated, preventing damage from leaking into the Shield pool in much the same way as normal shield gating does for Health.
- Hildryn's Shield Gating grace period is 3 seconds when fully charged, rather than the usual 1.3.
  - This passive is shared with ally Warframes and Companions when linked via Haven. Reset is dependent on the allies' own shield bar being fully replenished once protected by invulnerability.
  - This passive also works in Archwing combat.

All of Hildryn's abilities drain her Overshield and Shield points, as she lacks any energy capacity.
- Ability Efficiency mods and abilities affect the shield costs of her abilities instead of energy costs.
- Mods which convert energy spent on abilities to shields (such as Brief Respite or the Augur Mod Set) do not replenish shields.

Energy Orb pickups restore 25 shield points and instantly reset shield recharge delay.
- Because Hildryn can still pick up energy orbs to restore shield, mods or arcanes that benefit from picking up energy, such as Equilibrium, Energy Conversion, and Arcane Energize, still function.
  - However, Arcane Energize has no effect on her, even though it can still trigger.
- Can only pick up Energy Orbs when Hildryn's shield pool is not at or above maximum.
- Shield points from Energy Orbs cannot create Overshields.

Hildryn's shield pool stat scales with Warframe rank differently than normal, with ranks that would normally increase her energy pool increasing her shields for the same amount, for a total of +250% shields at Rank 30.

Main article: Balefire (edit)

SHIELD: 50 KEY 1	Balefire Charge and launch devastating bolts of fire. Overshield/Shield Cost per Shot: 100 - 450	Strength:100 - 200 / 200 - 400 / 350 - 700 / 500 - 1000 ( Electricity damage per bolt)
		Duration:N/A
		Range:1 / 2 / 2 / 3 m (explosion radius)
		Misc:100% (ragdoll chance on hit with Overshield)

Hildryn equips her Exalted Weapon energy rocket launcher sidearm, the Balefire Charger, using 50 shields or overshields to summon and converts 100 shields or overshields into an energy bolt which explodes on impact with enemies and surfaces.
- Balefire Charger will ragdoll enemies if Hildryn has overshield.
- Activation shield cost and shield cost per shot are affected by Ability Efficiency.
Balefire Charger has its own unique statistics:
- Base damage is 100 / 200 / 350 / 500 per hit.
  - Damage distribution is purely Electricity.
- Shots have a 150% critical multiplier, with a 5% critical chance and 10% status chance.
- Shots can be charged to increase the damage inflicted, at the cost of consuming more shields:
  - Scales with the amount charged (e.g. 50% charge deals 50% more damage), up to a maximum of 100% damage and 450 shields at full charge.
  - Has a charge time of 2 seconds.
- Shots have a fire rate of 0.833 rounds per second.
- Shots have an explosion radius of 1 / 2 / 2 / 3 meters.
  - Explosion radius is affected by Ability Range.
- Damage is affected by Ability Strength and most secondary weapon mods.
  - For example, with Hornet Strike, Convulsion and Intensify equipped, each shot will deal
    $Base Damage \times (1 + Damage Mods) \times (1 + Elemental Mods) \times (1 + Strength Mods) =$
    $500 \times (1 + 2.2) \times (1 + 0.9) \times (1 + 0.3) = 3,952$ damage.
  - The mods that affect Balefire Charger include:
    - damage (e.g., Pistol Amp and Hornet Strike)
    - elemental (e.g., Convulsion)
    - multishot (e.g. Barrel Diffusion)
    - critical (e.g., Pistol Gambit and Target Cracker)
    - status chance (e.g. Jolt)
    - fire rate (e.g. Gunslinger)
    - faction damage (e.g., Expel Infested)
    - punch through (e.g., Seeker)
      - However, the projectile won't deal any damage while traveling through enemies.
- Balefire can not be equipped with Acolyte Mods (e.g., Sharpened Bullets) or Amalgam Mods (e.g., Amalgam Barrel Diffusion).
- Riven Mods are not generated for the Balefire Charger.
While Aegis Storm is active, a second Balefire Charger will be equipped on Hildryn's left arm when using this ability. This is a purely cosmetic effect, and does not provide any tangible combat advantages.

Main article: Balefire Charger

The Balefire Charger is Hildryn's signature Exalted Weapon. This pistol launches bolts of Electricity that deal area-of-effect damage in a large area, and can be charged to deal more damage. Its massive damage is offset by its low critical chance, critical multiplier, and status chance.

Main article: Balefire Surge

Balefire Surge is a Warframe Augment Mod for Hildryn's Balefire that allows it to restore shields on direct hits from fully charged shots, and giving the ability to instantly destroy nullifier shields.

Rank	Shield Restore	Nullifier Restore	Cost
0	100	300	6
1	150	450	7
2	200	600	8
3	250	750	9

Balefire is capable of scoring headshots and activating headshot prerequisite effects such as Arcane Precision. Arcane Precision does affect Balefire Charger's damage.

Currently, Arsenal displays a (moddable) reload stat of 1 second that has no effect.

Main article: Pillage (edit)

SHIELD: 150 KEY 2	Pillage Pillage a percentage of Shields and Armor of nearby enemies to replenish Hildryn's own Shields and Overshields.	Strength:10% / 15% / 20% / 25% (shield/armor drain per enemy)
		Duration:2 s (expansion duration)
		Range:5 m / 6 m / 7 m / 8 m (pulse initial radius)
		Misc:? / ? / 6 / 20 m/s (expansion distance per sec) 100% (status cleanse on cast)
		Subsumable to Helminth

Hildryn emits a radial pulse with an initial radius of 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 meters, which follows her as an aura and rapidly expands outward by ? / ? / 6 / 20 meters per second over a duration of 2 seconds. Hildryn and allies touched by the expanding pulse are instantly cleansed of all negative Status Effects. Enemies in direct line of sight of Hildryn and within range of her aura are marked for pillage, reducing their current Shields and Armor by 10% / 15% / 20% / 25%. When Pillage expires or when the ability key (default 2 ) is pressed again while the ability is active, the pulse instantly retracts to Hildryn to restore her missing shields and produce Overshields based on the amount of shields and/or armor stolen from all pillaged enemies.
- Shield/armor drain per enemy is affected by Ability Strength.
  - Roar, Magnetic procs, and enemy weakspots on the "chest" area will increase the shield strip, but not shield return or armor strip.
- Pulse initial radius is affected by Ability Range.
- Expansion duration is affected by Ability Duration.
- Shield cost is affected by Ability Efficiency.
- Expansion distance per second and status cleanse are not affected by mods.
- Shield restore affects Kubrows, Kavats, and MOAs, but has no effect on Sentinels.
- Armor reduction is permanent and stacks multiplicatively with repeated use.
  - For example, with 200% Ability Strength it takes 10 casts of Pillage on an enemy with 500 armor to completly strip it.
- Does not steal from enemies without shields or armor stats.
- Enemies that possess both shields and armor will need to have their shields broken before armor can be pillaged.
- Repeatedly pillaging shields will eventually steal 0 points without breaking the enemy's shield, allowing it to regenerate shortly after.
  - Doing the same on armor, however, will be able to entirely remove the target's armor.
- Casting speed is affected by Natural Talent and Speed Drift.
- Pillaged enemies leaving Pillage's pulse and/or Hildryn's line of sight will still return shields to her.
Casting Pillage is a full body animation that stops Hildryn's grounded movement and other actions.
Pillage cannot be cast while Aegis Storm is active.
Hildryn's shoulder-mounted shield pads briefly become visible when Pillage is cast.
Enemies affected by Pillage glow in an upward stream of energy particles. Pillaged shields return to Hildryn as energy missiles once the ability expires or is recast while active.
Pulse, energy stream, and energy missiles are affected by Hildryn's chosen Warframe energy color.
Subsuming Hildryn to the Helminth will offer Pillage and its augments to be used by other Warframes.
- Subsumed Pillage uses 50 energy instead of shields.
- Does not generate shields for Inaros and Nidus.
- Other Warframes cannot make use of the Blazing Pillage augment, due to their inability to cast Haven.

Main article: Blazing Pillage

Blazing Pillage is a Warframe Augment Mod for Hildryn that makes enemies affected by Haven receive Heat damage with a guaranteed proc and restore Shields to Hildryn when hit by Pillage.

Rank	Heat Damage	Shields restored	Cost
0	50	20	6
1	100	30	7
2	150	40	8
3	200	50	9

Similar to Molecular Prime, ability duration is far more effective at increasing this ability's range than ability range itself. Increasing duration also provides more time for Hildryn to move around and tag enemies with the aura.
Modding for Corrosive Projection or Shield Disruption is ill-advised as this ability relies on enemies having shields or armor.

Main article: Haven (edit)

SHIELD: 250 KEY 3	Haven Create a shield aura around allies. Enemies that approach shielded allies will take damage. Overshield/Shield Drain per Ally: 5 s^-1 OS/S Drain per Enemy: 25 s^-1	Strength:150 / 250 / 300 / 500 (ally shield capacity bonus) 100 / 125 / 150 / 200 ( Radiation damage per second)
		Duration:50% / 60% / 70% / 80% (shield recharge rate)
		Range:8 / 10 / 12 / 15 m (link radius)
		Misc:100% (extra damage per second with Overshield) 3 seconds of shield gating for allies

Info

Hildryn overcharges her Shield Matrix to continuously link to allies and enemies alike. When targets are in her direct line of sight and within a 8 / 10 / 12 / 15 meter radius, Hildryn drains 5 Overshield/Shield points per second for every ally linked, and 25 Overshield/Shield points per second for every enemy linked. Deactivate the ability by pressing the ability key (default 3 ) again.
- Link radius is affected by Ability Range.
- Activation shield cost is affected by Ability Efficiency, while ally and enemy shield drain per second are affected by both Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
- Casting speed is affected by Natural Talent and Speed Drift.
While linked, allies gain extra maximum shield capacity by 150 / 250 / 300 / 500 points, 50% / 60% / 70% / 80% faster shield recharge rate, and 3 seconds of invulnerability on their shield gate; when the link is broken, excess shield points from the maximum shield capacity bonus become Overshields lasting until used.
- Shield capacity bonus is affected by Ability Strength.
- Shield recharge rate bonus is affected by Ability Duration.
- Shield gate invulnerability is not affected by Mods.
- When the shield gate invulnerability is ready to protect an ally, the ally's shield bar appears energized by lightning.
- Affected allies include all Warframes, Companions, Eidolon Lures, summoned allied units such as Specters, allied Invasion units, Hostages, Kavor Defectors, Sortie and Arbitrations Defense Operatives, and Defense Objects.
- Has no effect on Inaros or Nidus, due to their lack of shields.
While linked, enemies receive 100 / 125 / 150 / 200 Radiation damage per second, doubled when Hildryn has overshield. Light and medium enemy types are staggered when first linked, with a chance to be staggered again per damage instance. Heavy enemy types do not appear to suffer staggers from this ability.
- Damage per second is affected by Ability Strength.
Casting Haven is a full body animation that stops Hildryn's grounded movement and other actions, while deactivating Haven does not play an animation nor stop Hildryn's actions.
While Haven is active, Hildryn's upper body is enveloped in a fluctuating energy barrier, while her thigh-mounted shield pads become constantly visible.
Upon linking with a target, a shield beam connects the target to Hildryn with audible humming.
Energy barrier, shield pads, and shield beam colors are affected by Hildryn's chosen Warframe energy color.

Main article: Aegis Storm (edit)

SHIELD: 100 KEY 4	Aegis Storm Take the skies and rain Balefire rockets down on the enemy. Nearby enemies are blasted into the air where they will create an Energy Orb every few seconds. When shields run out the enemies are smashed into the ground. Overshield/Shield Drain per Second: 25 s^-1 OS/S Drain per Enemy: 25 s^-1 OS/S Drain per Dodge: 50	Strength:100 / 125 / 150 / 200 ( Radiation damage per second) 100 / 300 / 400 / 500 ( Impact damage on deactivation)
		Duration:N/A
		Range:8 / 10 / 12 / 15 m (energy field max radius)
		Misc:8-18 s (energy orb drop interval)

Hildryn activates her jet thrusters as she lifts off from the ground. Hildryn gains vertical and horizontal flight capabilities using the movement (W A S D ), crouch (Ctrl ), and jump (Spacebar ) hotkeys, similar to Archwing Maneuvers but without the Afterburner. While active, her shield matrix drains 25 shield points per second to continuously generate an energy field with a range of 8 / 10 / 12 / 15 meters; the energy field shrinks as Hildryn gains vertical height and expands as she is closer to the ground. Enemies inside the energy field and within Hildryn's line of sight drain 25 shield points per second per enemy, causing a fiery energy geyser to erupt from beneath them; enemies burned by energy geysers are suspended in midair, receive 100 / 125 / 150 / 200 Radiation damage per second, and drop an Energy Orb every 8-18 seconds. Deactivating Aegis Storm (default 4 ) causes Hildryn to slam into the ground, knocking down and dealing 100 / 300 / 400 / 500 Impact damage against all enemies inside the energy field.
- Geyser and slam damage are affected by Ability Strength.
  - Geyser damage is further increased as the energy field's radius becomes smaller.
- Range is affected by Ability Range.
- Activation shield cost is affected by Ability Efficiency, while shield drain per second values are affected by both Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
Hildryn in Aegis Storm cannot ascend higher than 10 meters above the horizontal surface underneath her. If Hildryn is above this threshold when activating the ability or due to changes in elevation, she will float downward. If Hildryn moves onto terrain that has a higher elevation than her original casting location, she will not maintain her current altitude limit and will rise to match the terrain.
Hildryn's Balefire Charger is the only weapon usable while this ability is active. Primary, Secondary, and Melee weapons cannot be used with Aegis Storm.
- However, Hildryn cannot zoom in with her Balefire Charger during Aegis Storm.
- While Hildryn holds two Balefire Chargers instead of one while Aegis Storm is active, this is a purely cosmetic feature and has no effect on the weapon's effectiveness.
Pillage and Helminth subsumed abilities cannot be cast while Aegis Storm is active.
Hildryn can perform dodging while Aegis Storm is active, at the cost of using 50 shields per dodge.
- Dash shield cost is affected by Ability Efficiency.
- Dodge distance is increased by Parkour Velocity bonuses from Arcane Agility, Arcane Consequence, Telos Boltace, and Infested Mobility, but not Endurance Drift.
- Amalgam Barrel Diffusion reduces animation time at the cost of ~27%±3% reduced distance.
Aegis Storm's movement speed is affected by ability like Volt's Speed and Wisp's Haste Reservoirs.
Hildryn is unable to accomplish any action that requires the Use key (default X ) while Aegis Storm is active, thus cannot interact with consoles, pick up datamasses, or revive allies from bleedout.
- The Operator can still be used while in Aegis Storm, and be able to do these actions without deactivating the ability.
While Aegis Storm is active large shield pads appear above each of Hildryn's shoulders. These pads appear above the pads that are briefly visible when Hildryn casts Pillage.
- Unlike the pads that appear for Pillage and Haven; which appear to be generated by small spheres; the pads visible when Aegis Storm is active appear to be generated by two Balefire Chargers, Hildryn's Exalted Weapon.
  - The Balefire Charger visible in Hildryn's hand when she casts Balefire appears to have five energy streams coming out of it. These are not visible in the Balefire Chargers generating her shield pads when Aegis Storm is active.

While channeling Aegis Storm, Hildryn can benefit from damage reduction from both and .

Even though they can't be used, weapons with Weapon Augments can still trigger their Syndicate Radial Effects, as long as they were the equipped weapon when activating Aegis Storm. Using Balefire Charger will prevent these effects, as that then becomes the equipped weapon. This is useful with the Perrin Sequences' Sequence effect, which recovers 25% of the warframe's shield, which is especially effective for Hildryn.

Operator Mode can be used without cancelling Aegis Storm, allowing Hildryn to crowd-control a large area of the battlefield while the operator uses their Amp or resurrects teammates. This also supplies affinity to an operator's Amp. However, take care not to die as operator, as Transference Static's shield depletion is particularly crippling for Hildryn.

While channeling, Hildryn's shields can be restored by 's , 's , Night 's , and 's . Trinity's will not restore shields.

can replenish Hildryn's own shields during Aegis Storm.
