Riven Mods

Cephalon Samodeus' grand creations. Each mod is malleable and unique, inspired by and meant for a single weapon. Complete a Riven Mod's challenge to unveil its possibilities, both rapturous and unfavorable.

—In-game description

Riven Mods are special mods for primary weapons, secondary weapons, melee weapons, archguns, and robotic weapons.

Riven Mods are completely unique; no two are the same, even if they have the same attributes, as their numbers will differ.

Warning: Weapon Dispositions are rebalanced every Prime Access release, resulting in ever-changing Riven Mod values. This should be kept in mind when investing in the Riven system.

Properties

Riven Mods are unique amongst other Mods in a variety of ways:

• Require the player to complete stated challenge to reveal its weapon assignment and attributes.
• Carry two or three different bonuses.
• Can carry a negative stat, the effects of which can be crippling but which greatly increases the potency of bonuses.
• Can have any of the Madurai, Naramon, or Vazarin polarities, regardless of its attributes.
• Have their own Mastery Rank requirement independent of the weapon, ranging from 8 to 16.
• Can have its bonuses (but not the weapon) rerolled with the use of Kuva.
• Are assigned to a single weapon per Riven mod, similar to Weapon Augment Mods.
• Cannot be equipped alongside another Riven mod.

Upgrade costs and Trading Credit taxes of Riven mods are equivalent to those of Rare mods.

Players start off with 15 inventory slots for Riven mods, which can be increased by purchasing 3 slots for 60 Platinum 60 at a time from the Market, up to a maximum of 150 slots (total cost to buy additional 135 slots is 2,700 Platinum 2,700). Achieving MR 30 earns an additional 30 slots for a total of 180. Receiving a Riven mod while being at the current limit will block access to any further Sorties, and the player will be given a choice to purchase slots, trade away a Riven mod, or dissolve a Riven mod of their selection.

Acquisition

A single Riven mod is given to players upon completion of The War Within quest.

In a more general sense, Rifle, Shotgun, Pistol, Melee, Kitgun, and Zaw Riven mods can primarily be acquired from:

• Palladino, a character in Iron Wake, who can transmute 10x  Riven Sliver into a veiled Riven mod, once per week. Players can obtain Riven Slivers as rewards from:
  • opening Requiem Relics
  • Empyrean, as a Mission reward
  • drops of eximus units killed in The Steel Path.
• Sorties, with various drop chances:

Weapon Type	Drop Chance
Melee	8.14%
Pistol	7.61%
Rifle	6.79%
Kitgun	2%
Zaw	2%
Shotgun	1.36%

• Teshin rotating offerings – does not include Pistol and Melee Riven mods

Riven mods can also more sporadically be acquired from:

• Nightwave, as a possible rank reward, depending on the series
• Nightwave, by purchasing Enter Nihil's Oubliette, depending on weekly offerings.
• Tactical Alerts
• Gift from the Lotus Alerts
• Daily Tribute Evergreen milestones, awarding three Riven Mods along with three Riven Slots

In addition to the above, players can also acquire the following:

• Archgun Riven mods – from Arbitration Honors
• Companion Weapon Riven mods – from Cephalon Simaris

Challenges

A Veiled Riven mod.

When a player receives a Riven mod, it is Veiled and:

• Will not take up mod capacity.
• Will not grant any bonuses or curses.
• Cannot be upgraded.
• In order to be unveiled - it must be equipped on a weapon of the same class that itself must be equipped in the currently active loadout:
  • Veiled Rifle Rivens can only be equipped on non-shotgun primaries.
  • Veiled Shotgun Rivens can only be equipped on shotguns.
  • Veiled Pistol Rivens can only be equipped on secondaries.
  • Veiled Melee and Zaw Rivens can only be equipped on melee weapons.
  • Veiled Kitgun Rivens can be equipped on either primaries or secondaries.
  • Veiled Robotic Weapons Rivens can be equipped on any Robotic weapon.
  • Veiled Archgun Rivens can only be equipped on Archguns.

Furthermore:

• The weapon used to complete a challenge is entirely irrelevant to the resulting Riven.
• It is possible to complete the challenges using any equipped weapon or Warframe ability, i.e. it does not need to be the weapon on which the Riven is currently equipped (however the Riven must be equipped on an item within the current loadout while attempting the challenge).
• It is possible to unveil multiple Rivens in a single mission by equipping one veiled Riven on different pieces of equipment. For example, one pistol and one rifle Riven. If the Rivens have the same challenge, this is convenient.
• If its conditions are met, the Riven will be revealed independently of mission success. It will also be automatically removed from the weapon used to reveal it if that weapon is not the Riven's dedicated type.
• Completing the challenges also gives affinity.
• Certain challenge modifiers are listed below for the sake of clarity:
  • Being alone - No Companions equipped.  Venari is exempt from this modifier as she is instead tied to  Khora's abilities. Not to be confused with Solo mode.
  • With an active pet - Generally refers to Beast-type companions. Venari is excluded from this modifier.
  • Having a Dragon Key equipped - any Dragon Key can be used for this challenge, unless specified.

Challenge	Notes & Tips	Internal Name
Kill X Enemies with Finishers	Ash's  Blade Storm does not count, but  Fatal Teleport does.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedFinisherKill
Kill X Enemies while Sliding	–	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedStyleKill
Kill X Enemies with Headshots	–	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedHeadshot
Kill X unalerted Tusk Ballistas with a Headshot	Tusk Ballistas can be found on the Plains of Eidolon, on top of watchtowers near Grineer camps.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedHeadshotUnawareBallistas
Kill X Enemies with Headshots from at least 75m away	This challenge is easier to do in Landscapes.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedLongRangeSniper
Kill X Enemies that are on a Dropship	Dropships include Tusk Bolkor, Tusk Firbolg, and Condor Dropship.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedKillPassengers
Catch X Fish without missing a throw.	Modifiers include being alone, remaining undetected. The Pharoma can be used to make this easier. And note that it affects only the fish that have spawned already.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedFisherman
Catch one Fish, Mine one gem or metal, and kill one enemy in 30 seconds.	Modifiers include being alone, remaining undetected, having a Dragon Key equipped. Search for a fishing area with nearby deposits and deploy bait before attempting this challenge. Additionally, consider mining deposits first as they're the most time-consuming out of the 3 tasks. The Grineer Camp at Er-Phryah's Vigil is a good place to complete this challenge, as the camp itself is located on the coast with several ore deposits nearby.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/PlainsTimedVariety
Complete a defense mission with level 30 or higher enemies without the defense objective taking any damage.	Modifiers include being alone, not using any team consumables, having a Dragon Key equipped. The failure condition of taking any damage includes hits to the shields, so defense missions with Ranged enemies is not recommended.  Frost built for  Snow Globe,  Volt built for  Electric Shield's Duration,  Banshee built for  Sound Quake,  Limbo built for  Stasis,  Vauban built for  Bastille,  Gara built for  Mass Vitrify and  Ember using  Inferno on Infested defenses is highly recommended but not required to complete this. Kala-azar, Eris or Sechura, Pluto are recommended missions to complete this challenge. Only five waves are needed to complete the challenge.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/HighPerfectDefense
Complete an extermination mission with level 30 or higher enemies without being detected.	Modifiers include not taking damage, being alone, having a Dragon Key equipped. This challenge can be completed by waiting around the mission start location while your teammates do the killing, as it tracks only whether you have been detected. You will be informed if you are detected and fail the challenge via pop-up. Keep in mind that to be detected, enemies have to actually see you. Using a frame that is able to stay invisible like  Loki,  Ash, or  Ivara will make the objective much easier.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/HighExterminationUndetected
Complete a solo interception mission with level 30 or higher enemies with a Hobbled Dragon Key equipped.	Modifiers include not dying/becoming downed. Remember that the Hobbled Dragon Key does not affect Bullet Jump and Slide speeds. Fast or crowd-control based frames may help in keeping all points secured.  Ivara,  Titania,  Hydroid, and even  Rhino are good at keeping the enemies off the points. Only one round of interception is required to complete the challenge. It is possible to start the mission with two or more allies, but they must leave before all enemies have been killed at the end. Suggested Mission: Pluto, Cerberus Using  Nyx on Sedna, Berehynia is small enough of a map to allow you to cover most of the map with  Mind Control or  Chaos.  Gauss makes this challenge a breeze with  Mach Rush, and  Thermal Sunder can be used to defend the consoles.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/HighSoloInterceptionHobbled
Complete a survival mission with level 30 or higher enemies without killing anyone.	Modifiers include having a Dragon Key equipped, not using Health/Energy Consumables. This challenge can be completed by using  Ivara's  Prowl ability to grab Life Support off enemies. However, this is still reliant on chance as not every enemy will drop Life Support. Opening Lockers and smashing containers will also sometimes drop Life Support capsules. By equipping  Master Thief on your Warframe you have the chance to open even more lockers than normally available. Allies killing enemies will result in challenge failure. Enemies killed due to infighting (e.g.  Nyx's  Chaos ability) do not cause the challenge to fail. Defeating (Shadow) Stalker in case of appearing during the challenge will not result in challenge failure. Enemies killed by laser traps in the Void do not result in challenge failure. Only five minutes are required to complete the challenge.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/HighSurvivalPacifist
Destroy X Dargyns with a bow.	While this primarily refers to Tusk Dargyns, Kuva Dargyns will also count towards this challenge. Standard Dargyns in Archwing Free Space missions, however, will not. The easiest way to find Dargyns is to go to the Koro node (an Assault mission) in the Kuva Fortress. During the first stage of the Assault, several Dargyns will fire on the player as they try to break in. Note that the Dargyns do not have to be piloted, however, they do have to be airborne. Kills against grounded Dargyns do not count. You can also fly a Dargyn into the air yourself, exit the vehicle and shoot it as it falls. Crossbows (such as  Zhuge and  Attica) can also be used count towards the challenge.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedSkiffArcher
Destroy X Vruush Turrets while in Archwing.	Modifiers include without dying/being downed, not getting afflicted by a Status Effect, while alone/in Solo Mode, having a Dragon Key equipped. Vruush Turrets usually found above Watch Towers in Grineer settlements. They are usually hidden underground. Fly low through a settlement, which will pop them up and then go to a safe distance and shoot them.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedAntiAntiAir
Find [1-4] Caches.	Modifiers include having an active pet, not dying/becoming downed, not using ciphers, not taking damage, not using energy consumables, being alone/in Solo Mode, having a Dragon Key equipped. Bounties given by Konzu or Eudico related to finding caches also count towards this challenge, making it easier to get. There is currently a bugged modifier of having to not raise the alarms, as completing the Sabotage objective will raise an alarm. Aborting the mission after finding a cache will still count towards the challenge, however. It is impossible to raise the alarm on Crossfire Exterminate Lua mission which makes this mission well suited to completing the challenge.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedFindCaches
Find [8-24] Syndicate Medallions.	Modifiers include having an active pet present, not failing a mission, not having an ally downed, not taking damage, not triggering an alarm. The active pet must be a Beast. Syndicate Operatives are not counted toward this (they can be downed). Any Syndicate medallion counts towards the challenge's progress. Despite using the same spawning mechanics as faction medallions, Voidplumes do not count towards this challenge. As any Syndicate mission is guaranteed to spawn eight medallions, players can expect to finish this challenge within 1-3 Syndicate missions depending on the challenge's requirements. Note: Completing the mission is not neccesary to complete the challeng on the riven, meaning you can gather the medallions and then abort the mission and it will still unveil it.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedFindRareMedallions
Get 3 headshot kills in a single aim glide.	Modifiers include having a Dragon Key equipped. Note that this does not require consecutive headshot kills. A "spray and pray" approach on an enemy-dense mission type is a possible tactic.  Patagium combined with  Aero Vantage can make this much easier by completely removing motion while aim gliding. Simply stop moving, jump straight up, and hold aim, and you'll hover in place for ~6 seconds. Frames that can prevent enemy movement without killing enemies such as  Ivara,  Vauban and  Equinox can help a lot. A good strategy is to bring a friend to immobilize enemies while the person with the Riven mod equipped brings  Zephyr to get the headshots. The  Scourge's Bullet Attractor field makes headshots noticeably easier to land if the throw doesn't kill the targets. For this reason, do not equip any damage-boosting mods on the Scourge. The  Arca Plasmor's large hitbox and innate punch through make it easy to score multiple headshots on a crowd if aimed slightly above head height. Pax Seeker's projectiles seek enemy heads and count towards the 3 headshots. Can be made trivial by charging Zephyr's Tail Wind to hover in place It is recommended to do this on Corpus Tilesets, as some Grineer can be difficult to headshot. If you have a warframe that can heal a Defense target like Khora's Venari, Tessera on Venus is an excellent choice; shoot out any Moas but let a sizeable number of Corpus converge on the defense target, then with an accurate semi-auto weapon like a  Vulkar get into an Aim Glide and headshot 3 of them in quick succesion.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedHeadshotGlide
Get [10-20] kills in a row while wall dashing or wall clinging without touching the floor.	Modifiers include having to be invisible during the kills, not raising alarms, taking no damage.  Ivara or  Loki are useful for "being invisible" modifier. Silent weapons or equipping silencing mods (f.e.  Hush) on weapons are useful for "not raising alarms" modifier. Can not be completed by doing a Survival or Defense mission for the "not raising alarms" modifier due to an alarm being raised at the beginning of the mission. Weapons that deal area-of-effect damage (i.e.  Tonkor,  Penta,  Ignis etc.) are ideal for completing this challenge. The wall clinging time can be prolonged by jumping on the wall once when your clinging time is about to run out and then reactivating wall clinging. As long as you do not touch the floor, the challenge won't reset. Keep in mind that  Loki has a 60-second long wall latch time as a passive ability, making this very helpful for this challenge. Exilus mods like  Patagium,  Ice Spring,  Firewalker or  Toxic Flight can help increasing the wall latch time as well. Abilities that can attack for you, such as  Wukong's  Celestial Twin, can make this trivial.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedWallClingKillstreak
Get the killing blow on [2-12] Sentients.	Modifiers include having a Dragon Key equipped, being invisible, while sliding, while alone, without dying/becoming downed, without an ally getting downed, without getting afflicted by a status effect, without using energy consumables, doing it in one day, taking no damage. Sentinel, Necramech, or Operator last hits will not count towards the challenge. Vomvalysts are an exception to this rule, but players must complete the challenge or leave the Plains of Eidolon before sunrise, otherwise, the challenge will be considered a failure. During The Second Dream, killing Sentients while being carried counts towards the requirement. Brachiolysts do not count towards this challenge. Neither do Amalgams, despite being listed as Sentients in the Codex. If Vomvalysts aren't available at the time, fighting the Ropalolyst on Jupiter spawns a good amount of Sentients during its final phase. Murex railjack missions always have 20 Sentients. These can be used for this challenge.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedKillSentients
Kill 3 airborne Condrocs within 5 seconds.	Modifiers include not dying/becoming downed, having an active pet. Ash's Blade Storm simplifies this greatly, but only works with Condrocs found on the ground. Mark them and wait for them to take flight before triggering. It appears that each time you enter the Plains, 4 airborne Condrocs can be found at "Er-Phryah's Vigil". This can simplify the mission further. Using an Odonata can trivialize this challenge. Getting close to a group and using Repulse, you can kill many Condrocs at once. You can use Energy Amplifier to broaden the area Repulse covers.
Kill X Dargyn Pilots before they hit the ground.	Simply destroying a Dargyn and the pilot simultaneously with an AoE weapon does not count, however killing the pilot with a Sniper Rifle while they are in mid-flight does work. Modifiers include while aim gliding, being alone, while sliding.  Mesa's  Peacemaker or  Ash's  Blade Storm abilities can make this trivial. The way to complete the "while sliding"-modifier is to hold down the slide button first and then activate Peacemaker. Throwing the Pilots into the air with Void Sling and killing them before they hit the ground also counts towards the challenge. Warframe abilities that count in suspending Dargyn Pilots:  Nidus's  Larva  Zephyr's  Tornado  Titania's  Spellbind  Rhino's  Rhino Stomp	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedKillFallingPilots
Kill [11-125] enemies.	Modifiers include while aim-gliding, while sliding, while invisible, kill enemies with finishers, kill enemies with headshots, kill enemies with headshots from at least 100 meters away, kill unalerted enemies, kill specific enemies, kill enemies that are on a dropship, having a Dragon Key equipped, not using consumables, not taking damage, not being affected by a Status Effect, not dying/becoming downed, not raising any alarms, not being detected, not failing the mission, while alone/in Solo Mode, completing within a single day. The ground vents on Jupiter will help to prolong aim glide time.  Zephyr is highly recommended, but it is possible to do without her.  Ivara's  Prowl can aid in scoring headshots undetected, as well as raising their damage. Using a sniper rifle and an Itzal as Penumbra allows players to cloak and avoid detections while the sniper rifle allows for precise aiming from longer distances.  Loki with  Hushed Invisibility will allow you to walk right up to the targets and headshot them. No alarms: Missions such as Void Exterminate (Teshub) contain no alarms. Status effect: can be avoided with  Rhino's  Iron Skin,  Nezha's  Warding Halo,  Titania's  Spellbind, or  Oberon's  Hallowed Ground. There is no requirement to kill all enemies within one mission, so a mission can be ended, even aborted, without resetting the counter. Kubrow Dens may help, as you can have almost 10 Kubrows per den. Be sure to equip a very low damage (unmodded) weapon to hit the den, without destroying it, to spawn additional Kubrows (about 5). Kubrows never trigger an alarm. "While sliding" can be done with  Octavia, casting  Mallet and just keep sliding until enough enemies are killed by the mallet. "Kill on a dropship" modifier: Applies to enemies on Tusk Firbolgs, Tusk Bolkors, Condors and Coildrives. Should be noted that destroying a dropship while enemies are onboard will count towards the challenge. The Interception mission on Cerberus, Pluto spawns a dropship right when you start the mission. Using a beam chaining weapon like Atomos, kill the enemies in the first dropship, abort the mission and repeat. Frames specializing in stealth and/or melee finishers while in open combat like  Excalibur,  Hydroid,  Ivara,  Equinox,  Ash,  Inaros, and  Zephyr will allow for easier completion for "with finishers" modifier. Finisher opportunities from blocking attacks and the Steel Meridian's Justice proc may also apply as well. A good way to enable finishers on enemies is by drop-kicking the enemy to the ground, leaving them open to a finisher.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedKill
Kill X wild animals with a fishing spear.	Any wild animals outside Landscapes (e.g. Feral Kubrows and Feral Kavats) cannot count towards this challenge. Fish do not count either. This is best completed in the Plains of Eidolon as wild animals spawn naturally as opposed to the Orb Vallis. This challenge is quite easy as  Ivara,  Loki, or  Ash as being cloaked allows for careful aiming and even kill multiple animals with one throw  Khora can use  Ensnare to not only immobilize wild animals, but also to pull in nearby animals and stun them as well. Explosion kills from  Molecular Prime also count towards this challenge, as long as they were initiated with a fishing spear. Molecular Prime also has the added benefit of slowing down animals, making them much easier to hit.
Land X consecutive headshots while in Archwing mode in the Plains of Eidolon.	Important note: Any hit by enemy (or turret) fire will reset the counter. This is not reflected in the description, however. Fly around with caution as any overlooked enemy may result in a reset, especially turrets can detect you over a long range. Manually exiting Archwing Mode will not reset the counter. The missiles fired by Tusk Hellions, Tusk Ballistas, or Vruush Turrets can reset this challenge's progress, as they can force a player out of Archwing Mode should they hit. Hitting any other body part than the head resets the counter. However, missing a target completely does not reset the counter. The challenge only takes into account of the number of headshots, not headshot kills. The challenge can easily be completed by getting consecutive headshots (with low damage) on a single target X amount of times. Shooting off a Tusk Thumper's leg plates and revealing its points of vulnerability counts as a headshot, allowing for 4 headshots per Thumper. The Eidolon Teralyst and its variants count for this challenge. It is recommended to take an accurate weapon and mod for fire rate and magazine capacity. Head out onto the plains at night and look for the Teralyst, use any Archwing abilities that can negate damage and open fire. Tips: When shooting one enemy of a group retreat immediately, as the others will be alerted and shoot at you. Alternatively, immobilize all enemies in a group using sleep or another form of crowd control before entering Archwing to guarantee accurate headshots. Use a silenced weapon. Itzal and Amesha are recommended Archwings, as they can respectively use Penumbra and Benevolent Decoy to avoid/deflect incoming damage. Odonata can also use Energy Shell to protect from damage, but bear in mind it only protects from frontal attacks. Headshots on grounded Condrocs count towards this challenge, as they generally stay in one place unless disturbed, but avoid Kuakas due to their erratic movement.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/RandomizedFlyingHeadshotSeries
Sustain a 6x melee combo multiplier for 30 seconds.	Modifiers include having either a Sentinel, Kubrow or Kavat for the duration, while alone/in Solo mode, having a Dragon Key equipped. Equipping  Body Count,  Drifting Contact and  Gladiator Rush together on a melee weapon can sustain the combo counter for over 30 seconds to more easily complete the challenge. Hit 6x melee combo multiplier once and just wait for the seconds to go by. Alternatively, using  Venka Prime or an Extinguished Dragon Key may also make the challenge easier, especially in tandem with the above suggestions. It is possible to attack a Kuva Fortress Fortress Scanner to rack up a combo, as they are invulnerable, and provide progress in combo counts. Kuva Siphons can also be used for this, as is Profit-Taker Orb resting on top of Enrichment Labs. Another recommended target for this challenge is Lieutenant Lech Kril found on Mars, since he starts off invincible and cannot take damage until his coolant tank is destroyed, which makes it easy to stack combos on him. The passive 'Power Spike' from the Naramon focus school helps a lot in maintaining a high combo counter even while no enemies are nearby. Pair this with slash weapons and the mod 'Relentless Combination' to make this challenge trivial. Blocking with your melee weapon is a safe way to stack and maintain combo. The  Xoris makes this challenge trivial due to its infinite combo duration.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/SustainMeleeComboThree
Synthesize a Simaris target without using traps or abilities while having a Hobbled Dragon Key equipped.	Modifiers include not taking damage, not using any abilities, being alone/in Solo Mode. The Hobbled Dragon Key only affects running and sprinting speed, and does not affect sliding or parkour.  Nezha's passive allows him to slide faster than he would move while running. If Solo mode is not one of the requirements, this has been found possible even with the No Damage modifier with a team-mate set to the same scan target and the team-mate does the scan while the Riven-holder stays at the spawn point, and the team-mate taking damage will not fail the challenge Simaris targets are vulnerable to knockdown effects, including ground slams. Activating  Ivara's  Prowl or  Rhino's  Iron Skin before the target spawns (such as at the start of the mission) and keeping it active until you reach the target to scan them does not fail the challenge.  Limbo's passive does not fail the "not using any abilities" modifier The synthesis target that you synthesize during the second mission in The New Strange quest will count towards the challenge.	/Lotus/Types/Challenges/LimitedSynthesis
Complete an incursion. Challenge Retired.	Modifiers include being alone, taking no damage, and having a Dragon Key equipped. Note that Incursions in the Plains of Eidolon occur only during day time. Incursions have been removed from the game in Update 24.4 (2019-03-08).

Attributes

A  Sybaris Riven mod.

Rivens are distinct from regular mods in that they are inconsistent in polarity (chosen between , , or ), Mastery Rank requirement (chosen between MR8-16), attributes, and have between two and four attributes. It is possible to have Rivens to grant a very powerful set of bonuses with a negligible (sometimes even beneficial) curse and vice-versa (e.g. Soma Sati-critatis with a curse that reduces undesirable  Puncture Damage, giving way to better procs).

Riven mods draw their names from a size pool of 31, indicated by the randomized/rerolled attributes that the new mod has. Names consist of a prefix and/or a core and suffix and follow "Prefix-CoreSuffix" or "CoreSuffix" pattern.

• Whether a stat is shown as a prefix, core or suffix is determined by the magnitude of the randomized modifier on that stat. The prefix and core are determined by the stats with the highest and second highest randomized modifier, respectively. The suffix is always the stat with the lowest randomized modifier.
  • For example, Vectis Sati-critaata has Multishot as the highest stat, Critical Chance as the second highest stat, and Base Damage as the lowest stat.

The 31 positive attributes are:

Legend/Notes:

†Positive values only

Sentinel weapons use the base values of their associated weapon class (e.g.  Deconstructor = Melee,  Sweeper = Shotgun, etc.).

The actual stat values are randomly chosen between 90% and 110% of the base value, multiplied by the Disposition, and then multiplied by the following value:

Type of Stats	Bonus	Negative
2 Bonus 0 Negative	0.99	0
2 Bonus 1 Negative	1.2375	-0.495
3 Bonus 0 Negative	0.75	0
3 Bonus 1 Negative	0.9375	-0.75

Disposition

Modifies the performance of an equipped Riven mod. More dots indicates stronger stats.

—In-game Description

The randomized attributes for Riven mods are affected by Disposition, a stat multiplier provided by the system that collates the usage popularity of a given weapon by players of high Mastery Rank and internal rankings based on the "strength" of a weapon. Disposition strength controls the range of the attributes available for each weapon. Disposition can be any value between 0.5 and 1.55, but in-game this is simplified to 5 categories:

• ●●●●● (1.31-1.55): Strong: Assigned to the least frequently-used weapons. Rivens with this disposition provide the greatest attributes.
• ●●●●○ (1.11-1.3): This Disposition is assigned to less popular weapons, Riven mods provide above-average attributes.
• ●●●○○ (0.9-1.1): Neutral: Weapons that see average usage within the player base, resulting in average attributes.
• ●●○○○ (0.7-0.89): Slightly more popular weapons, these will yield a below-average attributes.
• ●○○○○ (0.5-0.69): Faint: Assigned to the most frequently-used weapons, Rivens with this disposition provide the most restrained attributes. All newly released weapons start with this disposition.

Disposition is not necessarily shared between all variants of a single weapon. For example, the  Telos Boltor shares the same disposition with its  Prime variant at 1.20. However, the standard  Boltor has a different disposition at 1.30.

For Modular Weapons, the disposition is tied to the Main Component of the weapon, i.e. the Strike for a Zaw, and the Chamber for a Kitgun Secondary or Primary. For Kitguns, the Disposition of the Chamber can be different for Secondary and Primary versions.

Disposition changes every three months, aligned with every new Prime Access. If a weapon's disposition is changed, the attributes on already unveiled Rivens for the weapon will be automatically adjusted to match the new disposition.

A weapon's Disposition can be seen in the Arsenal under the Upgrade tab, but only when a riven which can be equipped to that weapon is currently owned.

Below is a list of Weapons, Zaw Strikes and Kitgun Chambers by Disposition:

Cycling (Rerolling)

Another unique aspect of a Riven mod's attributes is their ability to cycle (reroll) the attributes via the Cycle function in the Mods segment in the Orbiter. A Riven mod is cycled after spending Kuva, found through Kuva Siphon objectives on planets close to the Kuva Fortress or as an uncommon reward for completing Bounties.

Cycling a Riven mod affects the number of attributes, as well as the final numerical attribute, but not the current weapon designation, mod rank, polarity or Mastery Rank requirement. Dispositions belong to the weapons and not the mods, and thus a cycled riven will not have attributes outside its own range of values.

After cycling a mod, both the old version of the mod and the new version is displayed, and players can choose to keep the version they prefer.

Cycling a Riven mod starts off with 900 Kuva 900 Kuva for the first cycle and increases on subsequent cycles of the same mod, capped at 3500 Kuva 3500 Kuva. The number of cycles is indicated by a clockwise arrow at the bottom right of the Riven mod.

Cycle	Cost	Cumulative Cost	~Runs	Cumulative Runs
1	900	900	1.4	1.4
2	1,000	1,900	1.6	3.0
3	1,200	3,100	1.9	5.0

9	3,150	16,450	5.1	26.4
10+	3,500	19,950	5.8	32.2

Total Kuva cost to roll:

• An unrolled Riven 9 times is 16,450 Kuva 16,450.
• A high-rolled Riven 9 times is 31,500 Kuva 31,500.

Therefore, 15,050 Kuva 15,050 Kuva can be saved by rolling an unrolled Riven instead.

Transmutation

If a player has excess Rivens and are comfortable with doing away with several of them, a Riven Transmuter allows them to sacrifice four Rivens in their inventory for a new, veiled Riven mod.

The Riven Transmuter is a drop acquired from the Eidolon Hydrolyst, consuming four Riven mods to transmute them into a new, veiled one. The new Riven will always be of the same type as one of the transmuted Rivens. As a consequence, if four of the same type are transmuted (e.g. only rifle Rivens), then the new mod will be of the same weapon class.

Upon transmutation, the four selected Riven mods and the Riven Transmuter will be consumed.

Trade Data

Digital Extremes exposes in-game Riven Mods trade data through their website for third-party use, which is automatically updated weekly on Monday 00:00 UTC based on the prior week's trades. Note that this data only tracks Riven Mod and Platinum trades greater than 1 Platinum 1.

Players can access this data from the following websites:

Notes

• Riven mods are not saved in a player's Codex.
• It is possible to complete multiple Riven mod challenges within a single mission, assuming the player qualifies for them simultaneously.
• While it is possible to equip a veiled Riven mod onto Robotic Weapons, the challenge will not appear for the player.
• Typing [Riven mod] in the in-game chat and selecting the mod will let other players in the same chat channel see its bonuses.
  • Typing out the name of the actual Riven mod is an alternative way of representing the player's mod in chat.
• Base (unranked) Endo value of Riven mods is affected by the Mastery Rank requirement, weapon type, and number of cycles.
• A Riven Mod's chosen weapon is determined upon its unveiling; thus a Riven mod can be obtained, saved, and unveil a weapon that did not exist when the Riven mod itself was rewarded/obtained.
• Riven mods can be used on variants of a particular weapon, including MK1, Prime, Vandal, Wraith, Dex, Prisma, Mara, and Syndicate variants.
  • Being entirely separate weapons, Riven mods for the  Mutalist Cernos and the  Mutalist Quanta are not compatible with the normal  Cernos or  Quanta respectively, and vice versa. The same restriction applies to Dual Sidearms and Single Sidearms. Several Melee weapons such as  Dex Dakra and  Dakra Prime,  Nikana (Prime) and  Dragon Nikana are also considered separate melee weapons.
• Riven mods will not generate for Exalted Weapons.
• If a Riven mod includes multiple elemental damage bonuses, the elements listed are applied in the reversed order.
  • This means that any other elemental damage mod installed directly before the Riven mod will interact with the last element listed as opposed to the first element listed. Placing an elemental damage mod directly after said Riven mod instead will not affect the Riven mod's combined damage.
  • For example, if a  Heat damage mod is placed directly before a Riven mod that grants  Electricity and  Cold damage (and thus,  Magnetic damage), it will create  Blast and  Electricity damage as opposed to  Radiation and  Cold damage. Putting said  Heat damage mod directly after the Riven mod will keep the  Magnetic damage intact.
• Currently, the lowest Mastery Rank requirement to equip, trade, or sell a Riven mod is 8, and the highest is 16.
• The total Endo gain from dissolving a Riven mod is equal to the following formula:
  (100 × (Mastery Rank - 8)) + ⌊22.5 × 2^{Mod Rank}⌋ + (200 × Rerolls) - 7.
  • For example, the base value for an unranked, unrolled mod with a Mastery Rank requirement of 13 would be: (100 × (13 − 8)) + ⌊22.5 × 2^0⌋ + (200 × 0) - 7 = 515.
• Since Hotfix 23.8.2 (2018-09-19), trading Rivens only requires that the minimum mastery rank for Rivens be met, which is 8.
• As of Update 24.8 (2019-04-24) veiled Arch-gun Rivens can be purchased from Arbitrations Honors for 35 Vitus Essence.
  • Arch-gun Rivens can be equipped and unveiled with Atmospheric Arch-guns.

Trivia

• Riven mods feature a dynamic image, which constantly shifts between the images of the bonuses. For example, a Riven Rifle mod that affects Critical chance and Critical damage (positively or negatively) will shift between  Point Strike's image and  Vital Sense's image.
  • Interestingly, Riven mods that affect Status Chance use the images of Thunderclap, Crowd Control, Stopping Power, or Staggering Force, as opposed to  Rifle Aptitude,  Shotgun Savvy,  Sure Shot, or  Melee Prowess.
  • Riven mods for Kitguns will use images of Secondary mods even when equipped on Primary Kitguns.
  • Shotgun Riven mods that affect recoil will use  Hydraulic Chamber's image, the only instance of a Conclave-only mod appearing outside of the Conclave, as  Counterbalance would not be introduced until Update 30.5 (2021-07-06).
• Riven is the past participle of the Middle English verb Rive, which means "to violently tear apart". It also is a play of words on the word Revin, which mean the gift of god. This could mean that the Riven mods were masterpieces that were damaged.
• Riven mods for Companion weapons were made unobtainable in Update 24.0 (2018-11-08) but were brought back as Cephalon Simaris' offerings in Update 25.7 (2019-08-29) for 100,000 Standing 100,000 each. This was done to reduce reward pool dilution for Sortie-rewarded Riven Mods.
  • Prior to this, in Hotfix 19.10.1 (2017-02-14),  Artax Riven mods were made unobtainable from Sorties. Given the short 5-day period between the weapon's introduction and the hotfix and the low chance of getting a specific Riven mod, Rivens for Artax were the rarest ones in circulation.
• Taking into account the existence of 24 possible positive effects, the possibility of one negative effect, and that elemental damage and punch through cannot be negative attributes, also the fact that effects don't fall into the same category nor does order matter: there are 5,083 possible Riven mod stat combinations that have two positive effects and one or zero negative effects, and 35,673 possible Riven mod stat combinations that have three positive effects and one or zero negative effects, making a total of 40,756 different combinations for a single Rifle, Shotgun, or Pistol Riven.
• Prior to the removal of Channeling, the following stats used these prefix/core and suffix:

Effect	Prefix/Core	Suffix
Channeling Damage	Tori	Bo
Channeling Efficiency	Uti	Tia

Bugs

• If you complete the objectives of 2 different Riven Mods in the same mission they can cancel each other and not open at all, but rather reset to the state they were in before the mission started.
• If a Riven mod is unveiled while already being on the weapon it turns out to be for, it will remain on the weapon but not drain any mod points. This also allows weapons to reach negative mod point values.

Patch History

Hotfix 31.5.10 (2022-05-17)

• Fixed Unveiled Riven mods in Trade preview showing an incorrect Veiled version.

Update 31.5 (2022-04-27)

• Players who are over their Riven Capacity can now offer a Riven mod for Trade.  
  • Previously, you were unable to offer any Rivens for Trade if you were over capacity. Now, you can offer a Riven mod when at capacity, but will continue to not be able to receive a Riven via trade when at capacity as it cannot be exceeded.

Update 31.3 (2022-03-28)

Riven Disposition Changes:

As with each round of Prime Access come updated Riven Disposition numbers. See the full Disposition changes here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1303791-march-2022-riven-dispositions/

And read about our Riven Disposition Guidelines here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1303780-riven-disposition-guidelines/

Update 30.7 (2021-09-08)

• Reduced Riven challenge condition for "Kill X enemies with headshots from at least 100m away" to 75m away.

Hotfix 30.5.5 (2021-07-29)

• Updated respective Riven Challenge descriptions to indicate “Shield Restore consumables” as opposed to “Shield consumables”.

Hotfix 30.5.3 (2021-07-09)

• Fixed Rivens not being generated for the Cadus.
  • After looking into this issue we saw that some Bo Rivens out in the wild can be equipped on the Cadus. This fixes both the missing Cadus Riven generation AND that some Rivens were generated that could be equipped to both the Bo and Cadus. Please be advised that this fix will correct any existing Bo Riven Mods so that they cannot be equipped on your Cadus.

Hotfix 30.5.2 (2021-07-07)

• Fixed no longer being able to click the desired Riven after Cycling it (only the arrows would work).

Update 30.3 (2021-05-25)

Riven Disposition Changes:

As with each round of Prime Access come updated Riven Disposition numbers. See the full Disposition changes here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1265139-may-2021-riven-disposition-updates/

Update 30.2 (2021-05-12)

• Fixed ability to Transmute Veiled Riven Mods which lead to a broken screen when playing in non-English.

Hotfix 29.10.5 (2021-03-24)

• When linking an owned Veiled Riven Mod it will now be displayed as ‘Veiled [type] Riven Mod’ to distinguish it from linking the base Riven Mod type.

Hotfix 29.10.4 (2021-03-23)

• Fixed ability to obtain the Verglas Sentinel Riven from a Rifle Riven Mod as opposed to the intended Companion Weapon Riven Mod.

Update 29.8 (2021-02-11)

• Fixed Fire Rate curse from a Heavy Weapon Riven affecting your equipped Primary Bow.

Hotfix 29.5.7 (2020-12-10)

• Fixed rare issues with inability to Trade a Riven with the +30 Riven Mod Slots from Mastery Rank 30.

Hotfix 29.0.8.1 (2020-09-10)

• Fixed inability to Chat Link Rivens.

Hotfix 28.2.1 (2020-08-01)

• Fixed incorrect Riven Dispositions for Panthera Prime and Karyst Prime. They are both at the correct Riven Disposition of 0.5.

Update 28.0 (2020-06-11)

Riven Disposition Changes:

When we introduced separate Dispositions for each weapon variant back in November 2019, we planned to give new weapons a Disposition of 1 (the “average”), or matching the lowest member of the weapon family if it already had a Disposition lower than 1. Unfortunately, this meant that powerful new weapons (like the Kuva Lich collection) might have Rivens that start too strong, forcing reductions in accordance with our balance methodology.

In order to prevent this situation, we will be changing this policy: going forward, all new weapons will be released with the minimum Riven Disposition of 0.5. For The Deadlock Protocol, this includes the Dispositions on newly added Primary Kitguns, in addition to regular weapons (secondary Kitgun Dispositions will remain as-is.)

Full details can be found here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1199009-riven-disposition-procedure-for-new-weapons/

General Changes:

• Increased the Riven Capacity limit from 120 to 150.

Fixes:

• Fixed the "Killing blow on x Sentients" Riven challenge not counting for new Sentient enemies aboard the Sentient Anomaly.
• Fixed a Chat linked Riven that has 256+ rerolls being displayed as having 0 rolls. As reported here: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1195215-chat-linking-a-riven-every-256-rerolls-resets-the-rolls-in-the-link/

Hotfix 27.5.6 (2020-05-26)

• Fixed incorrect Riven Disposition displaying when viewing a Chat linked Zaw/Kitgun Riven.

Update 27.4 (2020-05-01)

• Added Riven compatible items component to Riven Unveil screen when Unveiling a Riven and when viewing a Riven via Chat Link!

Hotfix 27.3.11 (2020-04-09)

• Fixed and disabled Exalted Weapon Rivens from generation. Any of these will be re-rolled on login.

Hotfix 27.3.10 (2020-04-08)

• Fixed Client Mercy kills not counting towards Riven ‘Finisher kills’ challenges.

Update 27.2 (2020-03-05)

• You can now equip Veiled Kitgun Rivens on your Primary!
  • This feature is in preparation for Primary Kitguns coming in the Scarlet Spear update!
• Fixed Riven challenges requiring "without being afflicted by a status effect" resetting when the status effect is blocked by immunity from sources such as Nezha’s Warding Halo.

Update 27.1 (2020-02-04)

• Removed Riven Mods from the Codex Mod section.
  • There were a few issues present here: 1) the Codex Mod section not display all of your Rivens Mods, and, 2) the Riven Mods that it did show would point their acquisition to Cephalon Simaris, which only applies to Companion Weapon Rivens. Considering the extensive amount of Rivens possible, this option in the Codex does not function properly, as it would need to look up unique information.

Update 27.0 (2019-12-13)

Riven Disposition Changes

Christmas has come early! Initially these changes were planned for the release of Ivara Prime, but it has snuck into Empyrean so we’re rolling with it! For those that missed our previous Riven Workshop, this is our first time balancing Dispositions per weapon instead of per weapon family, as this functionality was added with The Old Blood update.

Update 26.1 (2019-11-22)

• Doubled the amount of Critical Chance on Melee Rivens and gave the Critical Chance 2x for Heavy Melee.
• Fixed ‘Chance to not gain combo count’ Riven curse not applying at all. This Riven curse has been reworded to ‘% chance to gain Combo Count’ for further clarification.

Hotfix 26.0.8 (2019-11-19)

• Clarified Melee Rivens that have the negative attribute of ‘Chance to not gain combo counter’ by replacing that line with ‘Additional Combo Count Chance’ that is seen on other Mods.

Update 26.0 (2019-10-31)

• All Riven Challenges related to Channeling have been changed to reflect ‘Combo Counter’. For example, Riven Mods can now have a + / - to not gain Combo Points on hit.
• Going forward, weapon dispositions will be tuned per weapon, instead of per weapon family. For instance, this means a Kohm Riven will have a disposition of 1.4 on a regular Kohm, but only a disposition of 1 when applied to a Kuva Kohm. Source
• The Riven Cycle screen now gives you the option to view the Riven stats on every owned variant of said weapon. For example, I can now select either my normal Lex or my Lex Prime to view it’s said Stats. https://gfycat.com/tepidmeatycrow

Update 25.8 (2019-10-01)

• With the addition of this new Prime Access comes the next wave of Riven Disposition changes! Please read our Dev Workshop post for all the changes: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1131603-october-2019-riven-disposition-updates/
• Veiled Sentinel weapon Riven Mods can now be equipped on any Sentinel weapon type instead of a specific type (e.g. shotgun). All Veiled Sentinel Riven Mods are now "Companion Weapon Riven Mod".

Hotfix 25.7.7 (2019-09-26)

• Sentinel Rivens will no longer get the ‘with an active pet’ requirement. Existing Rivens with this requirement have been changed to ‘without dying or becoming downed’.

Hotfix 25.7.6 (2019-09-18)

• Fixed chat linked Veiled Rivens not showing the unveiling challenge information.
• Fixed Veiled Companion Weapon Rivens issues when chatlinking.

Hotfix 25.7.1 (2019-08-30)

• Temporarily removed Companion Weapon Rivens from Simaris’ Offerings due to being unveiled for the incorrect weapon type. They will be added back once we make a permanent fix.

Update 25.7 (2019-08-29)

Riven Additions and Changes:

• Your total max Riven Slots is now 120 (up from 90)! Should you wish to purchase more Slots, you may now do so (up to 120)!
• Companion Weapon Rivens are available from Simaris’ Offerings for Standing (The War Within completion required), and yes, this includes the Artax!
  • If you recall back in Update 24.0 we removed Sentinel Weapon Rivens from the pool due to being lackluster in comparison to more applicable weapons. Adding Companion Weapon Rivens to Simaris’ Offerings allows players to freely choose these Rivens if they desire, and leaving it out of the general Riven Mod generation pool for those who don’t want them.
  • The follow Riven challenges now count towards Sentinel kills:
    • Kill X enemies
    • Kill X enemies that are on a dropship
    • Kill X enemies in a row while wall dashing/clinging without touching the ground

General Changes:

• Changed the Dargyn Bow Riven challenge description to specific that it must be Dargyns in flight, not ones parked on the ground.
