Weapon Loadouts

Main article: Category:Kronen Build

See the user build section for builds using this weapon.

Notes

• This weapon requires Mastery Rank 3 and two Argon Crystals to craft.
• The Kronen uses the Gemini Cross stance, which is currently the only Tonfa stance ingame.
• The last attack of the Kronen's basic combo can hit enemies behind the player.

Tips

• As with all Dual melee weapons, the Kronen consumes Stamina per individual swing of their left and right weapons. Since dual weapons can swing twice in rapid succession, one can drain stamina at an alarming rate faster than even stamina-heavy weapons like the Fragor. Consider using the Quick Rest mod when wielding this weapon to quickly recover Stamina, or alternatively use the Second Wind mod to instantly regain Stamina on channeling kills. Using Melee Combos that hit multiple times per attack like Gemini Cross' Vagrant Blight can also offset the heavy stamina cost.

Trivia

• This is the first Tonfa-type weapon in Warframe.
• One of the winning weapons from the fan-created melee weapon contest, this submission came from the player Datareaper.
• The weapon's name is possibly a reference to Karl Ruprecht Kroenen from the Hellboy franchise, who wields Tonfa-styled swords.
  • Krone is German for "crown" or "crest" - thus Kronen can be translated to "crowns" or "crests".

Media

• Kronen in Codex.
• Datareaper's original Blade Tonfa sketch that would become the Kronen.
• kronen holstered
