Info

• Equinox transforms between her night or day forms, over 1 second. She acquires abilities exclusive to each form and gains bonuses that diminish over 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 seconds.
• These bonuses decay linearly every second until they equal zero on ability expiration.
  • Stat bonus duration is affected by Ability Duration. The transformation time is not.
• The bonuses differ depending on Equinox's form:

• Night Form
• Day Form

Night form

• Upon switching to Night Form, Equinox can use Rest, Pacify, and Mend.
• She gains 100 / 150 / 200 / 250 armor and 50 / 75 / 100 / 150 shields, affected by Ability Strength.
  • Both are additive with Equinox's current armor and shield capacity (e.g., a level-30 Equinox with a maxed  Redirection,  Steel Fiber, and  Intensify will have 300 + 100 × 4.4 + 150 × 1.3 = 935 shields and 100 × 2.1 + 250 × 1.3 = 535 armor within the first second of a rank-3 Metamorphosis after the initial transformation is complete).
  • On missions with ice hazards, the shield decay rate is halved. When the ability ends, Equinox will be left with overshields equal to 50% of the listed maximum shield bonuses.

Day form

• Upon switching to Day Form, Equinox can use Rage, Provoke, and Maim.
• She gains 10% / 15% / 20% / 25% weapon damage and 5% / 10% / 12% / 15% movement speed, affected by Ability Strength.
  • The damage buff is additive with the base damage of weapons (e.g., with a maxed  Heavy Caliber and  Intensify, a weapon that inflicts 250 base damage will be increased to 250 × (1 + 1.65 + 0.25 × 1.3) = 743.75 within the first second of a rank-3 Metamorphosis after the initial transformation is complete).
  • The movement speed buff is multiplicative with other movement speed modifiers (e.g., with a maxed  Rush and  Intensify, a rank-3 Metamorphosis will increase Equinox's sprint speed to (1 × 1.3) × (1 + 0.15 × 1.3) = 1.5535 within the first second after the initial transformation is complete).

Switching between forms removes any bonuses granted by the previous form. Only a single set of Metamorphosis buffs can be active at any given time.

While switching, Equinox cannot cast any abilities but can perform all other actions such as moving and using weapons.

Pacify & Provoke and Mend & Maim are deactivated upon casting Metamorphosis. However, casting Metamorphosis in Day Form while Provoke is active will increase the armor and shield bonuses for Equinox's Night Form.

During the transformation, Equinox momentarily becomes whole with her night and day features merged together, then separates into the opposite form.

Main article: Duality

Duality is a Warframe Augment Mod for  Equinox that causes her opposite form to split from her when casting  Metamorphosis, creating a Specter armed with the weapon Equinox was using during casting.
