The Treasurer is a unique Corpus enemy only found on the Corpus Ship tileset (or missions with the same enemies as one). They were introduced in Update 28.0 (2020-06-11) and are the only source for Granum Crowns.
Crowns will only drop after the player has completed The Deadlock Protocol quest.
Behavior[]
Treasurers will spawn in any mission on the Corpus Ship tileset within 2-4 minutes for non-endless missions and 3-8 minutes for endless missions. When they appear, a transmission will play and the Treasurer will be automatically marked with a red marker. They will constantly run away from the player (similar to capture targets) and deploy various countermeasures in an attempt to distract them, such as slowing tether grenades, invisibility, and shockwaves. They will teleport out of the mission if not killed within 90 seconds. Before despawning, they will start to glow with a bright white light, indicating that the player has to hurry up to finish them off.
Damage Resistance[]
Treasurers have a unique shield that possesses 99% innate Damage Reduction, as well as being impenetrable by methods that would normally bypass shields (such as 
Toxin damage), making them very resilient to most weapons and abilities. Unlike most shields, their shields will not recharge after being damaged. They can, however, be recharged by Shield Ospreys, even when fully depleted. Toxin procs have no effect (dealing 0 damage) while their shields are up.
Their health has an innate 98% damage reduction, despite having no armor.

Notes[]
- The Treasurer does not spawn in Valac, Europa due to being a Crossfire mission, despite using the Corpus Ship tileset.
- Treasurers can spawn in Grineer Galleon tileset as well, given that the particular mission node is occupied by the Corpus.
- To prevent the Granum Crown from being dropped in extraction zones and therefore unreachable, the Treasurer will move away from it if he is within 35 meters. In addition, if the Granum Crown is dropped at the extraction point, it will be teleported to a safe spot.
- The Treasurer will not spawn if a player is within 35 meters of extraction.
- Drops are not affected by
Nekros Desecrate, Hydroid's Pilfering Swarm, Ivara's Prowl, Atlas Ore Gaze, Khora's Pilfering Strangledome and Chesa Kubrow's Retrieve. - Toxin and True damage do not bypass the Treasurer's shields and deal no damage.
- Immune to Revenant's Enthrall, Hildryn's Pillage, and Vauban's Bastille (Both Bastille and Vortex forms) and Minelayer Tether Coils.
- If a Treasurer should spawn while a Sister of Parvos is also present in the mission, he will only despawn after the Sister is defeated or flees. It is therefore recommended to kill The Treasurer before the Sister.
Tips[]
- Mesa's Peacemaker can kill Treasurers quickly.
- All of a Treasurer's shields can be instantly removed with Nyx's Psychic Bolts, Xaku's Gaze, Caliban's Fusion Strike, Styanax's Tharros Strike, or Unairu's Magnetic Flare.
- Magnetic damage is still effective against Treasurers, with its procs increasing the amount of damage done to their shield.
- Revenant's Reave depletes shields by a percentage.
- Cold procs and Sevagoth's Gloom can be used to slow down Treasurers.
- Treasurers are vulnerable to Harrow's Condemn's immobilization effect, and Khora's Ensnare, both of which can be infused onto any Warframe using the Helminth.
- Nightmare Mode missions with the No Shields modifier will remove the Treasurer's shields also.
Trivia[]
- Treasurers are voiced by Lucas Schuneman, or better known by his alias VoiceActingNinja, who also provided the voice for Nef Anyo, Tyl Regor, and Ghoul Rictus.
- The Treasurer's cache is its own item, labeled as "(Tier) Granum Crown Cache", and it breaks apart as soon as it contacts the ground. This suggests that during Update 28.0 (2020-06-11)'s development, players were originally intended to retrieve or break the caches themselves in order to collect the Crowns, and this was a very late change.
Bugs[]
- Sometimes Treasurers may not despawn if the player runs away from the area they appear on.
