Warframe: Players Can Now Unlock an Additional Arcane Slot in Update 31.6
Update 31.6 is a pretty hefty content patch for Warframe, and it’s now available on all platforms. Also known as the Echoes of the Zariman, this update provides plenty of new things for players, including an item that unlocks an additional arcane slot for their amps.
For those who are new to Warframe, Arcanes are items that provide significant benefits, such as increased damage, better survivability, and new abilities, so long as conditions are met. They can be slotted to different types of equipment, including weapons, amps, Warframes, and Operators.
That said, players can only carry a limited number of Arcanes, which is why the new Amp Arcane Adapter is a godsend. Basically, the Amp Arcane Adapter unlocks an additional arcane slot for the amp of the player’s choosing. It can be purchased with Holdfast standing from Cavalero.
What’s more, players can use the additional slot right away because Update 31.6 also introduces new Arcanes to Warframe. They are:
- On Energy Depleted: +180% Critical Chance for 8 seconds
- On Void Sling: +72% Amp Ammo Efficiency for 8 seconds
- Molt Augmented (Warframe)
- On Kill: +0.24% Ability Strength. Stacks up to 250x
- Molt Reconstruct (Warframe)
- Heal yourself and your allies within Affinity Range 6 Health for each point of Energy spent on the initial casting cost of abilities
- Cascadia Flare (Secondary)
- On Heat Status Effect: +12% Damage for 10s. Stacks up to 480%
The Echoes of the Zariman Update also brings other new content and changes, some of which are highlighted below:
