Arbitrations Revisited: Hotfix 25.7.6
Abritrations Revisited
Last week we released a Dev Workshop (link on those words: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1128051-arbitrations-revisited-part-2/) outlining our plans to improve Arbitrations, revisiting the droptables and improving reward frequency to be more consistent between modes. From new players who just completed the Star Chart, to veterans returning for new Arcanes and Aura mods, we hope these changes result in a more satisfying gameplay experience overall.
All changes are potentially subject to later changes based on feedback, so try out a few mission types and tell us your thoughts!
Reward and Rotation Changes:
In the original Arbitrations, Excavation missions were the clear outlier in terms of reward output for time spent. The following changes are intended to bring all other missions to the same level as Excavation, and also iterate on other community feedback:
-
Arbitrations now use regular rotation length for their rewards, with the exception of Excavation. Excavation timers have been adjusted to compensate. Example:
- EX: In lieu of a reward every 10 waves of Defense, you will now receive a reward every 5 waves.
- Arbitration rotation cadence has been changed from “ABCCCCC...” to “AABBCCCCC...”, so that the same level of time investment is encouraged.
- Reduced Endo Rewards drop percentage in the drop tables. Rare non-endo reward drop rates are unchanged - you’ll just get twice as many chances!
-
Arbiter Drones will now have a small chance to drop Vitus Essence on kill.
- Vitus Essence dropped by destroyed Arbitration drones will have the special pickup notification.
New Arbitration Rewards:
The following rewards have been added to the Arbitrations drop tables:
Stats shown at max rank*
-
New Aura Mods:
- Aerodynamic: 6 seconds added to Aim Glide/Wall Latch time, decreases damage taken while Airborne by 24%*
- Swift Momentum: 30% faster Charge Attack speed, 6 seconds added to Melee Combo time*
- Shepherd: Increases Companion Armor by 180 and Companion Health by 300*
- Combat Discipline: Allies gain 20 Health when they make a kill, but the aura bearer loses 10 Health when the bearer makes a kill.*
- Melee Guidance: Reduces Melee Combo timer on Self by 6 seconds, increases Melee Combo timer for Allies by 12 seconds*
-
New Arcanes:
- Arcane Primary Charger: On Melee Kill: 20% chance that Primary Weapon damage is increased by 200% for 8 seconds*
- Arcane Blade Charger: On Primary Weapon Kill: 20% chance that Melee damage is increased by 200% for 8 seconds*
- Arcane Pistoleer: On Pistol Headshot Kill: 30% chance to gain 100% ammo efficiency for 4 seconds*
- Arcane Bodyguard: On Six Melee Kills Within 30 seconds: Heal companion by 600*
- Arcane Tanker: On Heavy Weapon Summon: Gain 1200 armor for 16 seconds*
-
Per usual rules, an equipped maximum rank Arcane will also grant an extra Arcane Revive
- Note: You may notice that the new Arcanes have default icons - we will be updating these in the near future with unique imagery.
-
Added 3 x Vitus Essence bundle to the Arbitrations drop table.
Arbitrations Changes and Fixes:
- With the increased reward cadence resulting in more than double the Vitus Essence Output as before, prices in the Arbiter’s reward manifest have increased by roughly 1.5 times. To offset this change, we have run script to increase players’ existing Vitus stockpiles by an equivalent amount. Your Vitus should be increased to the correct amount upon login!
-
Arbitration Disruption Missions:
- Changed the extraction requirements for Disruption missions in Arbitrations from 8 completed Conduits to 4.
- Added “extraction available” pop up when it is ready if the round is reached and 4/4 Conduits were completed.
- Fixed round counter missing from the UI.
Additions:
- Added “Dayform” and “Nightform” icons beside the emissive color selection in Equinox’s Appearance screen. Choosing a dark or a light color for your emissive will change what form you spawn into mission as -- this just makes it easy to see which one!
- Added “Yo” Scale to the Shawzin. ‘Sup.
Changes:
- Ghoul Purge inbox messages will no longer automatically open your inbox or play the transmissions if you have completed all of the Encrypted Journal Fragments.
- Tweaked weather patterns in the Plains of Eidolon to prevent lengthy rainy periods.
- Increased brightness of Ash’s Bladestorm mark slightly to improve visibility.
- Ally NPCs will no longer attack Garuda’s Blood Atlar Victims.
- Updated Umbral Forma’s description to properly reflect the items it can be installed on (Warframes and Melee Weapons). Removed the ability to use Umbral Forma on K-Drives and Archwing Melee.
- Tweaks Ostron eyes to make them less glowy.
- Limited Shawzin to 30 notes per second to prevent macros playing ridiculous amounts of notes and causing issues.
- Enemies may now “react” (without changing their Alert state) to you by stopping and looking around if you shoot a Silent weapon within 2-3m of them several times quickly.
- Applying a Look Link to the same item (ex: a Nova Look Link applied to a Nova) that uses default colours will now properly apply the default color. Previously, the original color would remain unchanged.

- Made micro-optimizations to core math libraries.
