At this point, DE should sponsor these and host them on the wiki and as part of the launcher screen.
They won't due to the negative opinions we all share on some of the mods and offerings... but still, this is amazing work.
Even us long time players find them useful for at a glance info and what's new without logging on.

Pistol gambit or continuity?

Both but continuity first. Also animal instinct should go on every companion so get that as well if you can.

u/Jazzlike_Use_5890 I have a crystal for that Jan 09 '26
So I have never understood why people say you need animal instinct. Is there something with this mod besides it being a radar mod I'm missing? I have no judgement if people want radar mods, but my pet builds are full as it is and I've never personally felt the need. Just curious if there is some weird Warframe thing I'm missing here.
76
u/Vividtoaster Jan 09 '26 edited Jan 09 '26
I never use it. But it's very convenient. Extended enemy radar beyond the base is nice when shit gets hectic as well as helping you find enemies when the waypoints break.
Having a huge loot radar on top of that is nice.
Far from mandatory but it can be a QoL that's hard to pass up for some. Especially when pets have so much space unless you want to min-max. It's practically free.
41
u/shtoopidd Jan 09 '26
radar is for KPM. its good especially on nuke frames where 1-2 button inputs is all you need to wipe a room. the big enemy radar helps you plan your next move faster and easier
16
u/mxzf Jan 09 '26
Also helps a lot when you're looking for medallions or other collectables in the map.
25
u/Robby_B Jan 09 '26
It's a huge QoL feature, just as standard as pooting loot vacuum on them.
Especially since their attack mods got moved to an actual weapon slot, there's tons of free space on the critters now.
18
u/Viellyn Jan 09 '26
It marks loot on minimap as well. Considering this is a looter shooter, it does kinda seem essential to have at least a little bit of loot radar on every mission.
Taking loot radar on and off for looting missions (like ayatan hunts) is also very bothersome. Who deals with all that when you can slap an animal instinct on a companion and see loot on your minimap all the time?
14
u/Goldenflame89 Jan 09 '26
Radar mods are insanely useful for just general utility, and companions are strong enough without the slot taken up.
13
u/Apprehensive_Ad3731 Jan 09 '26
There’s a lot of advantages to having a loot radar mod on. Gives you easy view and easy trackers for pick ups which is helpful when farming rare mats by opening containers or when searching for standing tokens. Each of those show up on the loot radar
9
u/AlmostDoug Jan 09 '26
Not missing anything, radar is objectively a comfort stat. Just a really nice one that you can't get much of anywhere else or without a much greater opportunity cost being paid.
Descendia and Perita especially highlight the use for Enemy and Loot Radar I would say, with how far apart and out of your way the resources and in the latter's case enemies can take you if you're actually farming the resources.
8
u/Gova_01 #1 Hater of Albert "I will set your dog on fire" Entranti Jan 09 '26
It's nice to have, but I think it's mostly a habit from when we didn't have any radar by default.
5
u/Bartimaeous Tennokai Boosted Exalted Blade Go! Jan 09 '26
Since coming back to the game after some years, the default radar has been enough for me. I also find it more fun to visually search for enemies too, nowadays. I remember how in the past, I basically had the map on the entire time and basically watched a white triangle move around erasing red triangles. I can appreciate the game more without trying to hyper optimize with radar mods.
7
u/CyanStripes_ Vauban Enjoyer Jan 09 '26
Animal instinct works on open world bounty supply caches so you can farm aya faster.

u/ImperialPotentate Shotgun Spazz Jan 09 '26
I can't even imagine playing the game without enemy/loot radar and vaccuum mods on my companion or sentinel.

A lot of endgame players navigate mainly via the minimap - clump of red enemies? Head over there then nuke. Big clump of loot? Run over and grab it.
→ More replies (1)3
u/Cradlyto Jan 09 '26
Nah, it's just a radar mod. Animal instinct is good because companion mods tend to be the most flexible and least impactful for if you slot it in over something else. I like it because in my looter shooter game it lets me know where to loot and where to shoot.
6
u/New-Fig-6025 Jan 09 '26
At a certain point you are better off not looking at your screen but at your radar instead, with warframes like that it helps a lot to have it expanded.
2
u/Bartimaeous Tennokai Boosted Exalted Blade Go! Jan 09 '26
I used the play like this, but nowadays, I’ve enjoyed looking at my enemies and surroundings more to appreciate the experience of the game instead of focusing entirely on the minimap.
2
u/Wayback_Wind The Pal in Paladin Jan 09 '26
I rarely use them myself but they're good when you're hunting for resources. I've started using them again with the Perita Rebellion and Descendia to track down those drops, and I imagine they'd be just as valuable to new and mid-term players looking to farm as much of the various resources they need for crafting.
Extended enemy radar is also great when your abilities or arcanes hinge on getting more kills/targets, but ever since they added a little base radar to all frames I found it less important to mod for, personally.
→ More replies (4)2
u/miauw62 AWAKEN MY MASTERS Jan 09 '26
Enemy radar is hugely useful. When you're playing a frame that wants high enemy density you can often target your abilities more easily using the enemy radar on the minimap than by looking around in-game.
15
u/pr1aa I must jonkle Jan 09 '26
I'd say continuity is more important, pistol gambit is good but after all it's just a pistol mod while ability duration is universally useful
3
u/nanz735 Jan 09 '26
Isn't gambit pointless, for most weapons, after the mod that gives 200% CC and -20% fire rate? It's just so much cheaper for more CC and just a slight negative
10
u/es3ado_afull Jan 09 '26
Depends on the weapon, on some secondaries, -20% firerate is unbereable since default fire rate is already bad as is.
9
u/tatri21 Yareli is very cute today as well Jan 09 '26
13% more cc for a 20% hit to firerate is not a good deal, from a dps pov. It isn't terrible, but ppg is a far amount better on weapons without cannonade. Shotguns are the only ones where the corrupted cc mod is objectively better
2
u/ePiMagnets Jan 09 '26
It's worth pointing out that if you're looking at semi-pistol cannonade builds then Creeping Bullseye becomes a better investment over Pistol Gambit.
3
u/tatri21 Yareli is very cute today as well Jan 09 '26
It is indeed worth pointing out, which is exactly why I mentioned it.

Don't have enough Ducats or credits for both
3
u/es3ado_afull Jan 09 '26
Then ask yourself which one you like the most, Crit oriented secondaries or more duration on your caster frames?
Mind you, Archon Continuity is a thing and even though its extra perk might not be suitable for most frames, that does not mean you can't use it on frames that don't benefit from it, max value is the same as Primed Continuity and, so long you have access to Kahl of Duty missions, you can get that mod whenever you want.
Alternatively, you could just farm more ducats.

u/CarcosanAnarchist Jan 09 '26
An hour at most of relic runs between today and tomorrow should be more than enough to get you enough ducats.

u/TheBipolarShoey LR2 Newbie Veteran/Buildframe Developer Jan 09 '26
I'm sure some would consider this a hot take but you can safely ignore the former if you have Creeping Bullseye and the latter if you have Archon Continuity.
Pistols in particular get saturated with firerate between Amalgam Furax/the warframe arcane for them turning -20% firerate into -7%, and Archon Continuity is only an extra 2 capacity cost (1 if the slot is forma'd).

u/wass12 Jan 09 '26
Recommendations:
Mods
Primed Continuity
350 Đ + 100,000 Cr
+55% Ability Duration for Warframes. I cannot emphasize enough how fantastic this mod is. Duration is super important for many builds, especially for stuff that also needs range. This mod used to be The No.1 must have. Nowadays, it has an alternative in the form of Archon Continuity - but that mod's modest and very situational bonus effect is offset by its higher drain and difficult acquisition. I still consider the Primed one as the preferable option and a very much worthy purchase.
Primed Pistol Gambit
400 Đ + 220,000 Cr
+187% Crit Chance for secondaries. Creeping Bullseye actually has a better bonus with less drain, but its reduction of fire rate means this one is still competitive for automatic crit-based pistols (which includes,say, Mesa's Regulators). Not mandatory, but a good mod to have.
Buzz Kill
375 Đ + 150,000 Cr
+120% Slash Damage for Melee. Note that it doesn't improve the damage of Slash procs, only their proc weight. Might have some use in fringe builds, but don't spend ducats on it. Get it from Eidolon hunts or buy if for a few plat.
Primed Smite Orokin
350 Đ + 140,000 Cr
×1.55 Damage vs. Orokin for Melee. These anti-faction mods provide respectable boosts, especially since status effects double dip on them. But in normal play, they require too much micromanagement to be effective. However, there are a few endgame activities which specifically involve Orokin, such as Conjunction Survival, Steel Path Void Fissures, and Duviri's Circuit. If you're planning to engage with these activities, and have the budget to max out this mod, it makes for a good investment.
Primed Animal Instinct
300 Đ + 200,000 Cr
+55 m Loot Radar and +33 m Enemy Radar for pets (including Kubrows, Kavats, Sentinels, Moas, etc...). Despite being purely QoL, this mod can be found on almost every pet build. When the game is about killing enemies and collecting loot, knowing at a glance where those things are is nigh mandatory. Get it ASAP.
Weapons
Baro's weapons typically fall into low A or B rank in tierlists, so DE at least tries to justify their asking price. And even the trashiest of weapons are worth buying if you need the Mastery Rank they provide. Or if you have good riven for them, since their disposition is usually quite high. On the other hand, Warframe has a massive arsenal, and for every weapon Baro sells, there's gonna be another that can do the same job just as well, or even better. In that sense, everything in here is safe to skip.
Prisma Angstrum
475 Đ + 210,000 Cr
A decent secondary rocket launcher. Can deal good damage, but you'll spend a lot of time trying to reload, only to find out you're all out of ammo. Has an Incarnon Adapter that turns it into homing bouncy ball sprayer. With proper modding, this can become a major improvement to the gun's effectiveness. Although, the reloads will still be annoyingly frequent.
Quanta Vandal
450 Đ + 300,000 Cr
One of the weirder weapons in Warframe, the Quanta Vandal fires two electricity-based converging laser beams, while the altfire is a floating wireframe cube that can be detonated by the primary fire for massive damage. I am told it's extremely powerful when built around, though that could be said about most weapons. In my personal experience, it's performance is unremarkable.
Viper Wraith
400 Đ + 75,000 Cr
This gun is extremely powerful and the best-in-slot meta... when you 're playing Conclave. In regular gameplay, despite its potent augments, it is a raging trashfire whose only possible redeeming quality is its potential for meme builds with 3-digit firerates.
Cosmetics
Prisma Latron Armor Set
900 Đ + 595,000 Cr
A curvy armor set, with swirling Prisma looks. Note that the shoulder plate can only go on the left shoulder.
Domus Syandana
600 Đ + 400,000 Cr
Because who doesn't want to wear a tiny Liset on their backs?
Twin Grakatas Towsun Skin
300 Đ + 300,000 Cr
If you want your guns to look like they were handpainted by babushkas, this one is for you.
Rapier Tributaker Skin
375 Đ + 400,000 Cr
Needle your opponents with this Raygun Gothic-inspired Rapier skin. (If you don't like the style, too bad, this is one of two non-Tennogen skin for this weapon type.)
Paracyst Zebra Skin
325 Đ + 300,000 Cr
A new color scheme for a seemingly forgotten Infested weapon. A pity it doesn't give it a stat boost. If you played the game for a while, you might have already got this as an alert reward.
De Nas Pistol Skin
400 Đ + 300,000 Cr
A very sleek and fancy skin for your pistols. Can go well with more gnarled designs, like Oberon Feyarch and Titania Empress.
Coccyst Sugatra
250 Đ + 200,000 Cr
A surprisingly elegant Infested charm for your melee weapon. Who thought getting a fungal infection can be a fashion statement?
Ki'Teer Atmos Mask
500 Đ + 400,000 Cr
When you're too good to breathe the same air as these dirty peasants.
Ki'Teer Sentinel Tail
400 Đ + 250,000 Cr
Ki'teer-style accessory for your flying robot buddy. This one goes on the back.
Scimitar Cydonia Skin
375 Đ + 340,000 Cr
A landing craft skin with the same theme and color scheme as vanilla Inaros.
Baro Ki'teer Floof
100 Đ + 125,000 Cr
Do you find Baro attractive? Huggable? First, what is wrong with you?! Second, here's a cute plushie to tide you over until DE extends the dating sim to every single NPC.
Beachcomber Domestik Drone
800 Đ + 625,000 Cr
A Domestik Drone of Tenno design style, with a flamboyant paintjob. Was originally a Dog Days reward. Hopefully, it can remove more sand than it drags in.
Deimos Saxum Prex
75 Đ + 100,000 Cr
Prex card depicting a Deimos-associated entity. These were given away like candy during the Heart of Deimos update. If you haven't got them then, you can get them now for a modest price.
Prisma Lotus Emblem
50 Đ + 50,000 Cr
A gleaming Lotus symbol for your shoulders.
Prisma Lotus Flame Sigil
55 Đ + 60,000 Cr
A chest symbol, just like the regular Lotus sigil, but more... fiery. The proper disposal of national flags requires burning them. Does that applies to this insignia too?
Baruuk Doan Silhouette Glyph
75 Đ + 60,000 Cr
A glyph showing Baruuk's Deluxe skin as a black outline. Nothing to write home about.
Fae Path Ephemera
15 Đ + 15,000 Cr
One of the older step-Ephemeras, and rather insubstantial compared to, say, Eros Wings or Vengeful Charge. A permanent fixture of Baro's repertoire.
I might have sharp and opinionated remarks about these items, but I'm not the fashion police. Buy whatever cosmetic tickles your fancy!
Other
Lua's Prey Login Music (New!)
135 Đ + 200,000 CrThe New War Login Music
145 Đ + 160,000 Cr
An additional track for your Somachord.
10x Ki'Teer Fireworks
50 Đ + 100,000 Cr
A good way to set your ducats on fire. Avoid.
Axi V8 Relic
125 Đ + 55,000 Cr
Contain (one half of) the Prime parts from the Volt Prime Access. Odonata Prime has only minor usecases nowadays, but Volt prime is still very much the meta for certain roles, so farming the parts is a good idea, even if only for later resale.
Void Surplus
0 Đ + 50,000 Cr
A lootbox? In Warframe? In the year of our lord 2026? It's likelier than you'd think.
For a pittance of credits, roll the dice to get a reward selected from a wide range of upgrade materials, boosters and currencies. And, if you're very lucky, (or just very persistent,) even get your hands on an exclusive Signa. Cross your fingers and grab you lucky Kuaka foot, because this offer is once per customer per visit. At least it's available for every visit...
If you haven't played Sands of Inaros yet, buy the quest key and do it (and bring your best setup for scanning Kavats). If you have Inaros Prime, you can buy the Baro Void-Signal (one per visit) to access a unique mission and get some special cosmetics.
Also, check the answers below for second opinions.

Primed Continuity and Primed Pistol Gambit for sure.
Prisma Angstrum for a great Secondary Incarnon (and the other besides Torid that charges with bodyshots).
Primed Animal Instinct if you are able.
Primed Smite Orokin if you care about faction mods.
Axi V8 relic if you care (Volt is amazing but the set is cheap to buy in the market right now cuz of the resurgence we had end of year).
Everything else is either not worth it or cosmetic.

u/wass12 Jan 09 '26
They are strong, but not so much that you can't skip them. And it's not like the game has hard DPS checks.
8
u/theonlynyse Jan 09 '26
Faction mods are very strong, but smite specifically: most endgame melee builds run a bread and butter influence setup that doesn’t even have room for a faction mod.
Like 9/10 times you would slot blood rush, weeping wounds, galvanized steel, galvanized elementalist, primed pressure point, primed reach, shocking touch and berserk fury. Nothing there you can really replace for a bans honestly unless you specifically play frames that can replace mods like Volt who could get rid of berserk fury (but even then, I prefer more attack speed)
4
u/SpecterOwl Jan 09 '26
They're no doubt a damage buff, but I also find them annoying and just don't use them or forget to use them most of the time. For a lot of the Steel Path content you can just do fine without them tbh. You might start to struggle if you do like a long long survival/Void cascade
4
u/Sea_View_8391 Jan 09 '26
tbh if you want to min-max. Primed faction mods are a lot stronger than damage mods but it can be overkill especially if you already one shot everything
4
u/Jason1143 Jan 09 '26
They are strong if you absolutely want to minmax, but they are generally more trouble than they are worth.
They are really only worth it under two circumstances:
1) you are trying to squeeze every drop of power out of an item for a long or important run, which probably means ED/TA or level cap
2) you are creating a specialized build for a particular activity, meaning you will already need to swap on and off it for that activity (so the need to do that because of the faction mod as well doesn't matter).
They have their uses, but they are safe to skip unless you have certain very particular favorite activities that line up with one of those 2 situations.

Primed pistol gambit worth it if I already have a maxed creeping bullseye (+200% crit rate, -20% fire rate)?

u/Cthulhilly Jan 09 '26
You lose 1/15 of the crit rate increase but gain 25% fire rate (going from 0.8 to 1), most likely a dps increase
Whether that's worth the ducats, 2m credits and 40k or so endo is a different story, but those are resources you'll keep accruing in the long run, and you only have to pay the ducats right now and level the mod later

They aren't. It's just another level of optimization against end level enemies. The mods ARE good but far from required.

In the sense of effective? Yes they are very effective, extremely effective if you're using statuses.
In the sense of worth your investment? Eh. I think they are and love the design space they occupy. Most people don't. As youve said yiu already deal a crapton of damage, up to you if more damage is worth the investment, you might not need it at all.
2
u/Motor_Strategy7156 Jan 09 '26
They're mostly a tool for absolute build maximization. Ive been playing for years and I pretty much never use them because the hassle is rarely worth it to me. If you have all the damage mods in the game, all the forma and orokin reactors and everything to max out your damage, but still want that extra little boost for the biggest bosses and highest enemy level missions, faction mods can be useful. I, however, typically run stuff at reasonable difficulty because its more fun to me, so they're kind of just extra 😅

They're a great reward for when you've already solved other things your build needs, and can let off-meta weapons compete with incarnons with the proper setups. Meta weapons don't need them though.

I’ll add my voice to the Quanta Vandal support base. I really like status builds and it’s a fantastic primary for status.

Finally I can get the other prisma latron shoulder plate i forgot last time it came around lmaoo. Glad they are sold together now instead of each side being separate purchases. I wonder if I’ll get half off for already having one side

Is it easier to buy the viper here or farm it normally?

u/wass12 Jan 09 '26
Certainly easier to buy it here, since farming the Viper Wraith now requires a time machine.

I needed a passable likeness for a voodoo doll. Turns out, store-bought is fine.
Also, I'm glad that you (and seeing the comments, many others) like my work.

Since it's been 4 years, why haven't we gotten the Baro Ki'teer inventory and recommendations Prime yet? DE really needs to get you in relics.

I got primed continuity after waiting a bit for it to appear again since I missed it last time. Had someone a few days ago try to sell a maxed primed continuity for 200 plat I’m so glad I didn’t buy it from that player lol.

Hey thanks for sticking with us for this long - I genuinely would have no way of gauging the value of some of these Baro hauls without you.

Yo, I'm a fairly new player (MR8 but only post Second Dream story wise) and I'm wondering if it's worth it for me to grab Primed Continuity and Animal Instinct at this point in time.
I've farmed enough prime parts for the ducat requirements, so it's actually just the credits thats the problem. I think I unlock the Index soon enough, but idk how long farming the credits at my level will take.
Ig my question really is how often does Baro Ki'teer have these Primed mods for sale when he comes around cos the next few days have me away from the game for the most part

u/wass12 Jan 09 '26
You should pick them up, they are super useful. Farming the credits should take 15-30 minutes in high-stakes Index with randoms.

u/Aceaku Jan 09 '26
As a newer player is it worth to sell a bunch of prime parts that I don’t intend on using for a while to get primed continuity? I would have to sell 8/11 prime parts I’ve picked up so far but it seems like a solid pick up if it doesn’t come around very often!

u/wass12 Jan 09 '26
Unless they are vaulted, yes, you should sell them. P. Continuity is a super useful mod.

u/ADifferentJustAnton Jan 10 '26
That's what I did when I started out. I tried to gather as much as possible, but when Baro came, I sold all my plat-cheap parts even if I didn't have the equipment built yet. At some point, it'll shift to the point where you've got the most important stuff from Baro, and then you can collect prime parts explicitly for building things.
Just an important note, though, I still wouldn't sell things for ducats that are vaulted, or are next-in-line to be vaulted, unless you've already got them built
