Umbra Mod

“You're not supposed to be in here! You're going to ruin the surprise!”

The following article/section contains spoilers.

Umbra Mods are special Mods released with Update 23.0 (2018-06-15) that can only be acquired through The Sacrifice Quest, which are enhanced versions of existing mods. They feature the properties of both Primed mods and Set Mods, offering significantly improved stats over their base counterpart, and increasing their overall stats upon equipping the required number of mods. They also possess a second stat that grants enhanced effectiveness when fighting Sentient enemies, either in the form of increased damage against them, or increased defense.

While Umbra mods can be used on any Warframe and weapon, Umbra mods have a unique Umbra polarity, whose matching polarity can currently only be found on  Excalibur Umbra, the  Exalted Umbra Blade, and the  Skiajati. When acquired through The Sacrifice Quest, the Umbral mods will already be at rank 5.
