Greed. Brutality. Oppression. True stories, all, and the System is full of them. Dreamers? You listening? The System needs you performing your good deeds for the day. Nora needs it. Needs you to act. To change things. Hear the news, Dreamers. Hear it, or be it. Your call. Because in Nora's System, no good act goes unrewarded. This is Nora Night. You're listening to Nightwave.

—Nora Night

Alert and Challenge Reward since Update 24.3

Nightwave is a pirate radio station hosted by the enigmatic Nora Night. In-game, Nightwave serves as a unique Syndicate system that offers various player rewards such as Mods, Resources, Cosmetic items and more through the completion of various mission challenges.

Apart from the reward system, Nightwave will also feature various stories that further expand upon WARFRAME's lore through their broadcasts.

MechanicsEdit

Nightwave can be accessed from either the Orbiter's Navigation console, or on the Main Menu, through a banner on the lower right corner of the screen. Alternatively, players can interact with the Orbiter's Radio Scanner to the right of the ramp to access Nightwave.

The Nightwave system consists of daily and weekly challenges that players can complete to earn Nightwave Standing, which is used to rank up through Nightwave's 30 levels (15 in the Intermission), with each level requiring 10,000‍10,000 to level up. Every level attained grants unique rewards, with much rarer rewards being available at much higher levels. Unlike with traditional Syndicate standing, Nightwave Standing is only used to increase Nightwave ranking, and any leftover Standing upon leveling up is carried over to the next level.

Upon reaching the maximum rank, players can prestige and reset their rank to 0. Each subsequent rank-up will then only unlock 15 of a special currency called Cred to be spent in Cred Offerings. However, it is not possible doing so in Intermission.

NightwavePrestige — Upon reaching Rank 30, players can reset their rank by earning additional standing

SeriesEdit

Nightwave's reward system is presented in limited-duration seasons called Series, with each Series featuring its own story and set of level-up rewards themed after its accompanying lore. Each Series lasts for 10 - 11 weeks, and upon completion, all player progress with Nightwave will reset.

A storyless Intermission with reduced duration and ranks and inability to prestige is introduced during long downtime between Series.

ActsEdit

Acts are challenges that players can complete to earn Standing to increase their rank in Nightwave. They fall under three categories of difficulty: Daily, Weekly, and Elite Weekly.

Daily Challenges are introduced daily, with each lasting 3 days, while 5 Weekly and 2 Elite Weekly Challenges are introduced on a weekly basis, and last for 7 days. Apart from the duration, the different Challenge tiers also offer different levels of difficulty, with Daily having the easiest tasks, and the Elite Weekly having the most difficult ones. All Daily Challenges reward 1,000‍1,000, Weeklys reward 4,500‍4,500 and Elite Weeklys reward 7,000‍7,000.

Standing award during Intermission gives Weeklys 6,000‍6,000 and Elite Weeklys 9,000‍9,000.

Any Weekly and Elite Weekly Acts that have not been completed before the next week's rotation will be put on reserve. After all of the current week's Acts are completed, any missed Acts from previous weeks will be available and marked as Recovered, three at a time. Once all missed Acts have been completed, they will no longer appear, only to be refreshed in future week rotations.

Possible known challenges for an Act are:

	Executioner Kill 10 Enemies with Finishers	1,000‍1,000	Easiest type of finisher are stealth finishers, so either employ a stealth frame or simply sneak up on enemies.

	Saver Pick up 15,000 Credits	1,000‍1,000	Only Credits which are picked up during a mission are counted towards the challenge. Any after-mission rewards (from caches, Index, Dark Sectors, etc.) are not valid. The first mission after the daily log-in reset has an innate Credit Double boost applied.
	Sharing is Caring Kill 150 Enemies with Viral Damage	1,000‍1,000	Does not require the pure damage type, any killing blow with a weapon that includes some of that damage in combination counts. Sources of Viral Damage
	Shiny Pick up 8 Mods	1,000‍1,000	Mods must be picked up during a mission. Mods as a mission reward (i.e. from Nightmare Mode missions) do not count.

Icon	Description	Reward	Tips and Notes
	Animator Fully socket 3 Ayatan Sculptures	4,500‍4,500	One guaranteed sculpture can be acquired through Maroo's weekly mission. Arbitrations have a high chance to reward sculptures. Infested Salvage (Oestrus, Eris) has a 1 in 6 chance of spawning a sculpture and can be searched very quickly.
	Assassin Complete 3 Assassination missions	4,500‍4,500	Only counts per mission, so multi-target assassinations (Ceres or Neptune) will not count extra.
	Cache Hunter Find all caches in 3 Sabotage missions	4,500‍4,500	Mission has to be completed after finding all caches for it to count.
	Conservationist Complete 6 different Perfect Animal Captures	4,500‍4,500	Perfect captures depend on not scaring away or hurting the animal, as well as tranquilizing them quickly. Only counts up to 1 animal per attempt/lure, so even if multiple animals spawn at once and are captured perfectly it will increase just by one.
	Don't Blow It Complete 12 Conduits in Disruption	4,500‍4,500	Requires completion of the Natah Quest. Does not count consecutive (in one run), but total successful completions (over several runs). Was added during Season 2 of Nightwave
	Earth Bounty Hunter Complete 5 different Bounties in the Plains of Eidolon	4,500‍4,500	Requires presence at completion of all stages of a Bounty to count, so if one loads in after the first stage has already been completed the challenge will not count it. All bounties must be different. Repeating a bounty, even after completing a different one in-between, will not count. The same tier of bounty in a different rotation will count. Eidolon, Ghoul Purge, and Operation: Plague Star bounties also count towards this challenge.
	Earth Fisher Catch 6 Rare Fish in the Plains of Eidolon	4,500‍4,500	Rare species are: Cuthol Glappid Murkray Norg Only counts per successful catch, so resource boosters do not double the counter.
	Earth Miner Mine 6 Rare Gems or Ore in the Plains of Eidolon	4,500‍4,500	Rare Gems or Ore are: Crimzian Nyth Sentirum Auron Only counts per successful mine, thus: Resource boosters do not double the counter. Acquiring two valid gems/ores from one vein by "critical" mining will double the counter.
	Eliminator Complete 3 Exterminate missions	4,500‍4,500	Completing Crossfire mission variants count for this challenge as well.
	Enhance! Pick up 8 Rare Mods	4,500‍4,500	Mods must be picked up. Acquiring rare mods as a mission reward (i.e. from Nightmare Mode missions) doesn't count. The Index is a great source for enemies that have a high chance of dropping Rare Mods. Ambushed Coildrives drop a guaranteed Rare Mod at the end of the defense phase during Fortuna Bounties.
	Eximus Eliminator Kill 30 Eximus	4,500‍4,500	High or increased Eximus spawns occur in: Sanctuary Onslaught Sortie missions with the Eximus stronghold modifier
	Gilded Gild 1 Modular Items	4,500‍4,500	Modular items are: Zaw Kitgun MOA (Companion) Amp A K-Drive can not be gilded. The Mote Amp counts as a modular item, despite its predefined make-up.
	Good Friend Help Clem with his weekly mission	4,500‍4,500	Requires completion of the A Man of Few Words Quest. Speak to Darvo at any relay to start the mission. If you have already done the mission recently, it only becomes available again after 7 days, potentially locking you out of completing the weekly Act solo due to the overlapping reset windows. However, other players can still take you to their mission if you are in a squad.
	Invader Complete 9 Invasion missions of any type	4,500‍4,500	Completing invasion missions beyond 3/3 completion for battle pay counts.
	Jailer Complete 3 Capture missions	4,500‍4,500	—
	Not a Warning Shot Kill 500 Enemies	4,500‍4,500	—
	Operative Complete 3 Spy missions	4,500‍4,500	—
	Polarized Polarize with Forma 3 times (not in Simulacrum)	4,500‍4,500	Umbra Forma and Aura Forma are counted for this challenge.
	Protector Complete 3 Mobile Defense missions	4,500‍4,500	—
	Rescuer Complete 3 Rescue missions	4,500‍4,500	—
	Saboteur Complete 3 Sabotage missions	4,500‍4,500	—
	Sanctuary Researcher Complete 5 Scans for Cephalon Simaris	4,500‍4,500	Simaris' daily Synthesis targets provide 2-4 scans. To get new daily scans, completed ones must be turned in before daily reset (00:00 UTC) Completed scans of targets of/by other players do count as well, as long as the player is in range of the scan. Personal Research from the console behind Simaris can be used to get more scans, but each one can only be completed once.
	Sound Sleeper Complete 3 Nightmare missions of any type	4,500‍4,500	Nightmare missions are unlocked for a planet once all nodes (except Dark Sectors) of that planet are completed.
	Sortie Specialist Complete 1 Sortie	4,500‍4,500	Requires completion of the The War Within Quest. Completion will not trigger if the Sortie had been completed earlier the same day (Sortie and Nightwave reset windows do not overlap).
	Supporter Complete 10 Syndicate missions	4,500‍4,500	Requires Rank 1 with any Faction Syndicate (Steel Meridian, Arbiters of Hexis, New Loka, Red Veil, Cephalon Suda or The Perrin Sequence). Cephalon Simaris' Synthesis or Sanctuary Onslaught missions do not count despite appearing under the Syndicate missions tab.
	Test Subject Complete 8 waves of Sanctuary Onslaught	4,500‍4,500	Requires completion of the The New Strange Quest. Waves do not have to be completed in succession, only total.
	Unlock Relics Unlock 3 Relics	4,500‍4,500	—
	Vault Looter Unlock 4 Orokin Derelict Vaults	4,500‍4,500	Orokin Vaults are located in any mission in the Orokin Derelict (except Orokin Derelict Defense) and require Orokin Derelict Keys to access them from the Star Chart. Orokin Derelict Capture is the easiest mission to farm vaults on, as players can quickly kill the capture target and then search for the vault in peace. Players can equip all 4 Dragon Keys in their gear simultaneously to open these vaults solo. Ensure you have a Warframe that can withstand the lowered health and shields ( Inaros is recommended) and a weapon with high damage to compensate for lowered damage output.
	Venus Bounty Hunter Complete 5 different bounties in the Orb Vallis	4,500‍4,500	Requires presence at completion of all stages of a Bounty to count, so if one loads in after the first stage has already been completed the challenge will not count it. All bounties must be different. Repeating a bounty, even after completing a different one in-between, will not count. The same tier of bounty in a different rotation will count. Profit-Taker Orb and Exploiter Orb bounties from the Vox Solaris Syndicate also count towards this challenge. The second mission of the Profit Taker bounties are especially the fastest.
	Venus Fisher Catch 6 Rare Servofish in the Orb Vallis	4,500‍4,500	Rare species are: Longwinder Tromyzon Charamote Synathid Only counts per successful catch, so resource boosters do not double the counter.
	Venus Miner Mine 6 Rare Gems or Ore in the Orb Vallis	4,500‍4,500	Rare Gems or Ore are: Amarast Thyst Zodian Hesperon Only counts per successful mine, thus: Resource boosters do not double the counter. Acquiring two valid gems/ores from one vein by "critical" mining will double the counter.
Note: Each challenge saves/updates its objective automatically with each step, so no progress is lost if a mission fails or is abandoned.

Icon	Description	Reward	Tips and Notes
	Ascendant Complete 4 Halls of Ascension on Lua	7,000‍7,000	Requires completion of the The Second Dream Quest. Solutions to each puzzle can be found on the Orokin Moon page, along with their appearances.
	Day Trader Win 3 wagers in a row without letting the enemy score in one match of The Index	7,000‍7,000	Can be completed on any risk level of the Index. On the Gas Works map, be wary that the point can be accessed from underneath. Frames with area denial/terrain generation make this task easy with high Ability Duration: Atlas' Tectonics Gara's Mass Vitrify (not recommended on Gas Works due to entrance from below) Khora's Strangledome Limbo's Cataclysm with Stasis
	Defense Complete a Defense mission reaching at least wave 20	7,000‍7,000	—
	Elite Test Subject Complete 8 Zones of Elite Sanctuary Onslaught	7,000‍7,000	Requires completion of the The New Strange Quest. Waves do not have to be completed in succession, only total.
	Eximus Executioner Kill 100 Eximus	7,000‍7,000	High or increased Eximus spawns occur in: Sanctuary Onslaught Sortie missions with the Eximus stronghold modifier
	Grove Guardian Kill 3 Silver Grove Specters	7,000‍7,000	Requires completion of the The Silver Grove Quest. Players who haven't completed the quest can still complete the challenge by having other players use their Apothics on the shrine (consider the Recruitment Chat channel to find a group). An Apothic must be placed at the Silver Grove shrine, as in the Silver Grove quest. The shrine can be found in any mission (except Defense) that has the Grineer Forest tileset. Each player can use up to 2 Apothics of one type. Lotus will tell players carrying an Apothic when the Silver Grove is nearby. The entrance is very small and narrow, so players must search carefully. Player must be within the grove when the specter is killed for it to count towards completion of the challenge.
	Hold Your Breath Survive over 30 minutes in Kuva Survival	7,000‍7,000	Requires completion of the The War Within Quest. Timer begins after the Alarm is triggered. Using Nekros' Desecrate to roll for additional Life Support Packs off enemies comes in handy. This is more effective with dismembering weapons, as Nekros has more corpses to Desecrate. Since Desecration is client-side, multiple Nekros can sometimes Desecrate the same corpse for even more drops.
	Hydrolyst Hunter Kill or Capture an Eidolon Hydrolyst	7,000‍7,000	Requires completion of the The War Within Quest. A bounty for the Hydrolyst is available from Konzu at night to easily find a group.
	Kill Profit-Taker Kill Profit-Taker	7,000‍7,000	Requires Rank 5: Old Mate with Solaris United.
	Kill Shot Kill 1,500 Enemies	7,000‍7,000	—
	Night Terror Complete 10 Nightmare missions of any type	7,000‍7,000	Nightmare missions are unlocked for a planet once all nodes (except Dark Sectors) of that planet are completed.
	Silent Eliminator Complete an Extermination mission with level 30 or higher enemies without being detected	7,000‍7,000	—
	Sortie Expert Complete 3 Sorties	7,000‍7,000	Requires completion of the The War Within Quest. A Sortie is deemed complete if all three missions are completed.
	Survival Complete a Survival mission reaching at least 30 minutes	7,000‍7,000	Timer begins after the Alarm is triggered. Using Nekros' Desecrate to roll for additional Life Support Packs off enemies comes in handy. This is more effective with dismembering weapons, as Nekros has more corpses to Desecrate. Since Desecration is client-side, multiple Nekros can sometimes Desecrate the same corpse for even more drops.
	Unlock Relics Unlock 10 Relics	7,000‍7,000	Only counts the player's relics being unlocked, so a full squad in a Fissure mission will not count for 4 relics.
Note: Each challenge saves/updates its objective automatically with each step, so no progress is lost if a mission fails or is abandoned.

Description	Reward	Tips and Notes
Survival with Friends Complete a Survival mission reaching at least 60 minutes while playing with a friend or clanmate	5,000‍5,000	Timer begins after the Alarm is triggered. Using Nekros' Desecrate to roll for additional Life Support Packs off enemies comes in handy. This is more effective with dismembering weapons, as Nekros has more corpses to Desecrate. Since Desecration is client-side, multiple Nekros can sometimes Desecrate the same corpse for even more drops. Was only available during Season 1 of Nightwave
Hold Your Breath Survive over 60 minutes without using Life Support Modules in Kuva Survival	5,000‍5,000	Requires completion of the The War Within Quest. Timer begins after the Alarm is triggered. Using Nekros' Desecrate to roll for additional Life Support Packs off enemies comes in handy. This is more effective with dismembering weapons, as Nekros has more corpses to Desecrate. Since Desecration is client-side, multiple Nekros can sometimes Desecrate the same corpse for even more drops. Life Support Modules can be turned into Kuva Harvesters without breaking the challenge. Was only available during Season 1 of Nightwave
Sortie with Friends Complete a Sortie while playing with a friend or clanmate	5,000‍5,000	Requires completion of the The War Within Quest. Completion is triggered at the end of the third mission, so mission 1 and 2 can be completed solo or random beforehand. Challenge will not trigger if the Sortie had already been completed earlier the same day, only on the first successful completion. Was only available during Season 1 of Nightwave
Kill Profit-Taker with Friends Kill Profit-Taker while playing with a friend or clanmate	5,000‍5,000	Requires Rank 5: Old Mate with Solaris United. Was only available during Season 1 of Nightwave
Defense with Friends Complete a Defense mission reaching at least wave 40 while playing with a friend or clanmate	5,000‍5,000	Was only available during Season 1 of Nightwave

Series 2 — The EmissaryEdit

Series 2 began on July 6, 2019.

StoryEdit

Series 2 introduced Arlo, an Infested survivor with a mysterious power to heal others of various sicknesses.

Series 2: THE EMISSARY
Teasers Nightwave: Series 2 Trailer "Dreamers, you know 'bout the Infestation, right? Spreads like a month-old salad with genocidal intent. But maybe there's something more to this 'Infestation', something we all missed."
Episodes The Emissary Introduction "Dreamers, you know 'bout the Infestation, right? Spreads like a month-old salad with genocidal intent. Swallows everything it touches... makin' monsters from meat, or metal, or both. Well, these days it's mostly contained. Spores as old as stone. Derelicts drifting in forgotten orbits. So it was with old Kenga. Somehow exposed and promptly cast out. Woke up on a blessed cage-drop down to Eris. But, should some sad soul catch the gray-vein, well... every culture has its plague dogma. But maybe there's something more to this 'Infestation', something we all missed. Turns out... Kenga didn't find Void in that hell-nest, no. He found a survivor! Little boy. Arlo. Died three years ago, yet there he was. Lost his voice but gained his life... and somehow... saved old Kenga with the slightest touch of his slender hand." The Emissary Second Diorama "My mother was a cynical woman. Smart as she was cruel. Nora, she said, no disease spreads faster or further than the ones in our head. She was talkin' about ideas. Mine was that old Kenga and his wonder boy would've been splayed out in some bio-trader's lab by now. Or blood-studies for the Grineer command. Dreamers, I was wrong. Kenga's grey-vein was just the beginning. White lung, parasitic liver, clone rot, even bone spurs. Turns out this kid, Arlo, is a healer. So many questions... an idea like that is like a flare dropped in vol-gas. Now the sick and curious are flocking the Rails to see this 'Emissary of Eris'. And who speaks for Arlo the mute? Why old Kenga, of course. No more the outcast, it is he who is spreading the word of Arlo's gift. Even you, Dreamers, may soon hear it."

Warframe Nightwave - The Emissary Cinematic 1

Warframe Nightwave - The Emissary Cinematic 2

MechanicsEdit

Devotees can randomly spawn in missions after a Tenno is downed. Functioning as allies, they will appear next to the downed player and revive them. They will remain until they die, providing firing support and continue to revive any downed player and even their Companions.
- Bleedout will always trigger should the Devotee spawn.

Previous SeriesEdit

Series 1 — The Wolf of Saturn SixEdit

Series 1 began on February 27, 2019 and lasted until May 19, 2019.

StoryEdit

Series 1 introduced the Wolf of Saturn Six, a Grineer fugitive that escaped from the previously undisclosed Saturn Six Max-Pen with his Saturn Six Fugitive pack, and are actively hunting the Tenno.

Series 1: WOLF OF SATURN SIX
Teasers Nightwave: Series 1 Trailer "Hey there, Dreamers. You hearing me? Looks like things are kicking off. Mark the frequency. The time has come to act together. Acts of defiance. Acts of generosity. Acts of sacrifice. This is how we turn the system round. Nora sleeps better knowing her dreamers are out there, workin' to lift us up." Nightwave: Series 1 Episode 2 Teaser "You still with me, Dreamers? What's keeping you up? For me, it's the gap-waves. Let's check what's next." Nightwave: Series 1 Episode 3 Teaser "Hey there, Dreamers. I'm Nora Night, saying... you live with wolves you better act like one." Nightwave: Series 1 Episode 4 Teaser "It's a bad moon, Dreamers. Can you feel it? We both know what happens next... when a Wolf finds its pack... they hunt." Nightwave: Series 1 Episode 5 Teaser "Is this the end? I hope so... but if I were you, I'd keep a ear out. Stay deadly, Dreamers."
Episodes Introduction to The Wolf of Saturn Six "It's a bad moon, Dreamers. Can you feel it? Hm. From my perch, at Nightwave, I listen at the windows of the wealthy and well-to-do. Ever heard of Saturn Six? News to me too. Turns out the Grineer have a Max-Pen floating some six leagues deep in the gas. No one knew about it... 'cause no one ever busted out. Until now, right? Some Grineer meathead they started calling 'The Wolf'. On account of him taking up howlin' at night. Decrypts say he was a model prisoner, doing the time. Fabbin' bombs with the rest of his con brothers. Apple of the Warden's eye even. But something cracked, and now he's out there on the loose... the so called Wolf of Saturn Six." "Greed. Brutality. Opression. True stories, all, and the System is full of them. Dreamers? You listening? The System needs you performing your good deeds for the day. Nora needs it. Needs you to act. To change things. Hear the news, Dreamers. Hear it, or be it. Your call. Because in Nora's System, no good act goes unrewarded. This is Nora Night. You're listening to Nightwave." Nightwave Second Diorama "It's late. You still with me, Dreamers? Soon we'll see the sun curve over the Venusian sky. A hot blue taste. What's keeping you up? For me, it's the gap-waves, all abuzz with the doings of a certain big, bad, Wolf. Why didn't he run? Why didn't he hit that Solar Rail as far as it would take him? Instead, he's stalking those soul-bare, money-huggers 'round Jupiter. My birds are sayin' the Corpus net got flipped. A system-wide message from the Wolf. DELIVER GHARN. Where'd a meathead learn a trick like that? And who's Gharn? Baby, you can guess... he's the Warden of Saturn Six! A big man, too well dressed for his station, too well fed for his rank. And he's in the solar wind too... think he knows how the Wolf came to howlin'?" Nightwave Third Diorama "An ice-night in Neptune, Dreamers. Hmm. Hold yours close and true, and hey... if you're between stops... Nora knows that mood. But our Wolf... he's not alone tonight. Add this with me: the howler breaks out of Saturn Six. But get this... the howling doesn't stop... someone else takes to singing that cruel song. The Wolf knows why, and it called him back to the scene of the crime. Warden Gharn's little side business. Mmm. Sellin' Grineer lemons for a Corpus squeeze. So freedom's got no hold on the Wolf, does it? No. It's the sisters and brothers from the joint that matter to him.. The pack. We both know what happens next... when a Wolf finds its pack... they hunt. " Nightwave Fourth Diorama "The message read: GHARN IS YOURS. An anonymous gift. I know what this looks like. But the Wolf's too cold for revenge. The Grineer appoint Wardens for life. The Wolf had no choice but to shorten the term. Not payback, just 'never again'. But it was too easy. Days like these, an easy meal means you're taking someone's bait. Alad V's. The devil in a Corpus cloak. Got the Wolf in an all-new prison, baby. Only this one's not made of bars, it's made of chemicals... hmmm...guess we all know someone like that. The whole lot has been transformed into these 'Amalgam Dogs'... his words. Hybridized, juiced on some Sentient strain. No nice way to put it. I think the pack is coming after you, Dreamers." Nightwave Fifth Diorama "Passing by that Mercury Junction... shimmering hot, tonight. Word on the grid is the devil's got his due... hmm. Should have known. We saw the signs, didn't we? Sure. The Wolf got tough... tougher. But more than that, the Wolf got smart. Got a pack together. Worked the Corpus crypto. He's his own man now. Leavin' no more tracks. Is this the end? Dreamers, I hope so... but if I were you, I'd keep an ear out... 'cause one of these days you just might hear that howl come round your shoulder. This is Nora Night, signing off. Stay deadly, Dreamers."

MechanicsEdit

In addition to Acts, reputation can also be earned by finding and capturing three Saturn Six Fugitives that spawn randomly in missions, granting 50‍50 per Capture. If the player waits too long before capturing them, they will die and no reputation will be given but it will still count as them being eliminated. A secondary objective labeled "Fugitives Eliminated" will appear when they spawn in a mission. Fugitive groups can spawn multiple times in a single mission. These enemies appear in the "unaffiliated" category in the codex, as despite being Grineer biologically, they are fugitives.
The Wolf of Saturn Six can randomly spawn in most missions similar to Assassins, acting as a field boss. He has a 4% chance to spawn in missions below level 20, and 6% for missions level 20 and above.^[1] Defeating him has a chance to reward a component for his signature hammer, the Wolf Sledge.
- Following Episode 4, the Wolf became Sentient-turned, and has a chance to drop the Saturn Six Mask.

Patch HistoryEdit

Update 25.4

Eligibility for the Get Clem & Maroo Ayatan Treasure Hunt missions now resets at 00:00 Monday each week (same as Nightwave) instead of an arbitrary 7-day cooldown from whenever you last completed them. This ensures you have a chance to complete the missions within the weekly refresh of Nightwave.
- Anyone who ran within the last 7 days will have their cooldown reset 7 days from when they ran it, and future resets will be Monday 00:00.
In Tuesday’s Hotfix we released a fix for a Nightwave bug that prevented proper tracking of Acts. This is Part 2 of that fix. Today’s fix retroactively provides missing Nightwave Standing to players affected by the issue we fixed Tuesday.

Hotfix 25.3.3 A bug existed in the progress tracking and completion status of 'Recovered' Acts. If a repeat Act appeared, this would cause it to be already-completed immediately when they appear in the UI and prevent players from earning their associated standing reward. We have more fixes coming on this - stay tuned!

Hotfix 25.3.2.1

Fixed UI lockup that could occur when viewing Nightwave Rewards and then an Act.

Hotfix 25.3.2

Right clicking on Nightwave rewards will now display its preview diorama.
Fixed inability to mark Mods dropped from containers in the Void for the "Mark a Resource or Mod" Nightwave Act.
Fixed the Glaive Prime Blueprint help text saying it's obtainable from Nightwave Cred Offerings.

Hotfix 25.3.1

Updated the Nightwave Act "Transmute 3/3 Mods" to read "Complete 3/3 Transmutations".
Fixed crash when returning to the Orbiter after earning Nightwave Affinity.

Update 25.3 NIGHTWAVE SERIES 2: THE EMISSARY

Nora Night’s next broadcast follows the remarkable tale of Arlo. As the story unfolds, you’ll learn more about Arlo and his mission to soothe our deepest wounds.

Earn New Rewards -- An Infested Display of Power

Series 2 brings a brand-new set of Infested-themed rewards to earn! Rise through all 30 Tiers to unlock these limited-time rewards before the Series is over.

Protosomid Shoulder Guard (Tier 28): Loathsome tendrils squirm from these hefty
Chitoid Sentinel Bundle (Tier 29): Give any Sentinel a flair of Infestation with this pack.

Emissary Creds must be redeemed before the Series is over or sold for Credits, so use them before the frequency is lost.

Nightwave Series 2 Changes

Based on your feedback, Nightwave Series 2 introduces a suite of changes to reduce the time and tension of earning rewards. Some of these went live with Nightwave: Intermission, but let’s refresh our minds:

Playing Catch-Up! - We added a way for you to replay missed Acts from previous weeks, in case you have missed them!
De-grindification! - Less Weekly and Elite Weekly acts, but still giving the same amount of Standing as you would get from Series 1! In addition, we are looking to front-load Emissary Creds as an earlier reward for participating in the Series!
Act Changes! - We have lowered the Time and Wave requirements for some Endless Mission Acts, as well as lowering the cost of Ayatan Statues (this was implemented during Series 1). In addition, we have also removed the ‘with friends’ requirements from all of our Nightwave Acts!
New Acts! - Including the most important one... petting your Kubrow or Kavat! We also included some Acts for Kuva missions, Transmuting Mods, K-Drive Races and more!

If you haven't yet, check out our full Dev Workshop on Series 2 Changes: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1092003-dev-workshop-nightwave-changes-for-series-2/

Fixes

Fixed Perfect animal Captures not always giving credit for Nightwave Acts when it should.
Fixed Nightwave Act progression in the Orbiter causing UI to additionally count all the previously completed Acts in the ship and adding it to the displayed Standing.

Update 25.2

Fixed ‘Everything Old is New Again’ and ‘Loyalty’ Nightwave Acts not awarding Standing.
Fixed the ‘Silent Eliminator’ Nightwave Act not failing when an enemy detects you, regardless of alarms. Step your stealth game up!

Hotfix 25.1.2
Nightwave: Intermission is now live on all platforms until July 5th at 11:59 PM ET.

What is Nightwave: Intermission?

Nightwave: Intermission is a 15 Rank evergreen reward Intermission! As we work towards content for Series 2, we wanted to release an interim gap to ensure rewards were accessible! Nora Cred can be acquired and used to purchase Nightwave Offerings during this mini-series.

Nightwave: Intermission Rank Rewards:

100 Nora Creds
2000 Endo
Robotic Slots
3 Orokin Cells
Gamma Color Picker
50 Nora Creds
10K Kuva
Rift Sigil
3 Forma Bundle
Orokin Reactor
50 Nora Creds
10K Kuva
Orokin Catalyst
Aura Forma
EIDOLON EPHEMERA (not exclusive to this rewards table)

Nightwave: Intermission also brings a chunk of our planned Nightwave changes based on great feedback that were posted in the Dev Workshop, with the exception of ‘New Acts’, as we’re saving those for Series 2! The changes going live include:

Playing Catch-Up: Stored, Missed Acts!
1. When both Weekly and Elite Weekly Acts are completed for a week, a ‘missed’ Act, 3 at a time, from a previous week will be available to play and complete. Once you have completed all ‘missed’ Acts, they will no longer appear, only to be refreshed in the next week’s rotation.
Degrindification!
1. Reduced to 5 Weekly Acts and 2 Elite Weekly Acts. While there will be less Acts overall, the rewards for these Acts will increase, so you will earn the same amount of Standing as you would in the previous Episode upon completion.
Changes to Existing Acts!
1. 'With Clanmates / Friends' Act requirements have been removed completely
2. Increased Nightwave Standing from Weekly Acts from 3k to 4.5k and Elite Weekly Acts from 5k to 7k.
3. Reduced required Defense Wave Acts from 40 to 20 Waves.
4. "Kill Profit Taker with Friends" Act is now just "Kill Profit Taker".
5. Changed 'Complete 5 Sorties' Elite Weekly to 'Complete 3 Sorties'.
6. Complete any '60 minute Survival' Act reduced to 30 minutes.
7. Ayatan Socket requirement for Acts lowered from 5 to 3.
8. ‘10 perfect Conservations’ reduced to ‘6 different perfect Conservations’.
9. ‘10 Bounties’ reduced to ‘5 different Bounties’.
10. Increased the Sanctuary Onslaught Acts from 3 rounds to 8 rounds.
11. Removed the ‘Sortie with Friends’ Act.
12. The ‘Hold Your Breath’ Act has been changed to ‘Survive over 30 minutes in a Kuva Survival’.
Changed Nightwave Standing for Weekly Acts from 4.5k to 6k and Elite Weekly Acts from 7k to 9k.
1. This Standing increase is just for Intermission, in order to allow all 15 Ranks to be achievable in the given limited time duration. Nightwave: Season 2 will have the original change.

A note as to why:

As we count the days until TennoCon 2019, it’s evident that our ambitious goals for this year are needing all hands on deck, literally. Meaning that our plan to launch Nightwave Season 2 before TennoCon is going to be tight - and we don't want the downtime to be too long.

Thanks for your patience - Dreamers.

FAQ

Zahnny said:
Ah, so up until Tennocon. Nice. Do we get 15 creds when we perstiege like last time?

Very good question!

There is no Prestige past Rank 15 in Intermission. Intermission is short, sweet, and simply an interim gap.

Series 2 will have Rank Prestige back.

Hotfix 25.1.1

Wolf Creds still in your inventory can now be sold for 5K Credits.

Hotfix 24.7.2

Changed the Conservationist Nightwave Challenge description to clarify ‘Perfect Animal Captures in Orb Vallis’ instead of ‘Perfect Animal Captures’.

Update 24.7

Capped multi purchases for Syndicate stores that use currency other than Standing (e.g. Nightwave) to what can be afforded with currently owned Resources.

Hotfix 24.6.2

Fixed a script error when viewing Nightwave Episode dioramas.

Update 24.6

All of The Wolf of Saturn Six Nightwave episodes can now be viewed by selecting ‘Tune In’ on the Nightwave screen!
Fixed the Hall of Ascension Agility test contributing to Nightwave progress multiple times.
(Unlisted) Changed Acts:
- Animator: reduced requirement from 5 to 3 Ayatan Sculpture.
- Sortie Expert: reduced requirement from 5 to 3 Sorties.

Hotfix 24.5.8.1

Fixed Hive Sabotage missions not counting towards the ‘Cache Hunter’ Nightwave Act.

Hotfix 24.5.7

Fixed ability to repeatable collect Convict Standing by Host migrating and re-joining the previous squad, of which we have found a handful of obvious exploiters and will be acting accordingly.
Fixed incorrect number of Convicts being displayed in the HUD after a Host migration (would show 1/4 killed when it should've been 0/3).
Fixed the Nightwave ‘Vault Looter’ description not specifying Orokin Derelict Vaults.

Hotfix 24.5.6

Fixed the ‘Day Trader’ Nightwave Act not being marked complete after meeting the requirements. The appropriate Standing was delivered behind-the-scenes, but the UI neglected to accurately display that. Completing the Index requirements again post Hotfix will correct your UI, but note that the Standing has already been delivered.

Hotfix 24.5.5

Hotdropped Changed

Swapped the ‘Defense with Friends’ Nightwave Act with ‘Eximus Executioner’ due to complications with the Orokin Derelict Defense node. This Act has been fixed for future Acts of its kind: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1075909-psa-nightwave-elite-weekly-%E2%80%98defense%E2%80%99-swapped-to-%E2%80%98eximus%E2%80%99/

Hotfix 24.5.4

Updated the text string of the Nightwave Act ‘Use Forma x/3 times’ to indicate that this cannot be done in the Simulacrum, as it will not count towards the Act.
Common Nora Night Transmissions can now be disabled with 'enable hint transmissions' in the Audio Options menu.

Update 24.5

Nora Night is back on the airwaves with Series 1, Episode 2: The Wolf of Saturn Six. Tune in now to expand the story!
Fixed Nightwave Dailies appearing as progress for Weekly challenge completions.
Fixed overlapping UI in the Nightwave Tier Rank up screen.

Hotfix 24.3.1

Fixed socketing an Ayatan Sculpture in your Dojo not contributing to its respective Wolf of Saturn Six Challenge.
Fixed a text filepath showing on the Nightwave Syndicate End of Mission screen.

Update 24.3

Introduced, replacing Alert and Challenge Reward system.
