Notes

• The amount of Energy gained from damage taken to health is affected by Warframe Armor.
• Stacks with  Hunter Adrenaline for a total of 85% damage conversion.
• Applies to Status Effects that deal damage over time and damage that bypasses shields.
• Does not apply to the following sources of damage:
  • Self-inflicted damage, such as explosive weapons in close quarters,  Nekros's  Despoil, or  Combat Discipline.
  • Laser traps encountered in the Orokin Void and Orokin Derelicts.
  • Health lost due to the Vampire Nightmare Mode modifier, or health drained in Survival missions by falling to 0% life support.

Tips

• Rage gains more mileage when equipped to Warframes with high Health such as  Ash,  Grendel,  Inaros,  Mesa,  Saryn,  Nidus, or  Valkyr.
  • In particular,  Inaros and  Nidus benefit greatly from Rage due to their lack of shields and significantly high health.
• Damage reduction from things like armor have mixed value with Rage, since it allows you take survive more damage, but reduces energy gained as well. Damage reduction which applies to shields, such as  Adaptation and various warframe abilities, are particularly bad due to them making it harder to lose health at all.
  • This means that frames with low health and high damage reduction and/or shields are usually a poor choice for Rage.
• Rage can be used alongside healing effects to create a renewable source of energy.
  • Examples of healing include  Life Strike for melee weapons, melee weapons such as  Hirudo, Valkyr's  Hysteria ability, and the healing abilities of  Trinity and  Oberon. 
    • Note that Trinity already possesses a primary means of generating energy.
  • Many Warframe ability Augments (such as Saryn's  Regenerative Molt) create healing effects which can be employed in the same fashion.
  • Beware of high amounts of burst damage which may overwhelm a Warframe before they can heal themselves.
• If the player has  Quick Thinking equipped and suffers lethal damage, the gain in energy will be converted back over as emergency health.
• When hunting for vaults in the Orokin Derelict, or even outside of the derelict, equipping the Decaying Dragon Key handicap to sacrifice shields will reduce the time needed before Rage can take effect.
• Rage converts 5% less energy than  Hunter Adrenaline, but costs 2 less Capacity at max rank. This makes Rage preferable in builds that are tight on Capacity, particularly ones that utilize Umbral mods.

Bugs

• Rage does not provide energy if attacked by Arc Traps
