What’s hot in Warframe: The Jovian Concord

Warframe: The Jovian Concord

Big changes have come to Warframe, Tenno. The developers at Digital Extremes have released its 25th update, The Jovian Concord, to PC. This comes soon to console platforms as well, and the features are exciting. The online shooter has come a long way since Fortuna, after all. With a complete rehaul of Jupiter, a new and exciting boss to fight, and an all-new Warframe, there’s plenty to tackle in this completely free update.

“Infiltrate the remastered Corpus Gas City on Jupiter, drive your blade through Amalgam horrors, unlock the power of the Wisp Warframe, and shine a light on this sinister Corpus plot.”

The Jovian Concord sees Jupiter reborn

The plot in this Warframe update focuses on a supposed alliance between longstanding antagonist Alad V and the dreaded Sentients. They have overtaken Jupiter’s Gas City and are, you guessed it, up to nothing good.

Jupiter’s entire tileset has been given a serious overhaul. This comes with better graphics and audio production as well. Digital Extremes has fully reimagined the area to accommodate Warframe‘s parkour-style mobility. This remake also features new areas, lore, and secrets that players can discover. Should players fight through the sinister reactors and laboratories of Gas City and master the challenges entailed, there will be great rewards in store for them. One such reward, and indisputably the most valuable, is a brand-new Warframe.

The Wisp is the new Warframe released with Jovian Concord.

The Wisp comes with four new abilities: Reservoirs, Wil-O-Wisp, Breach Surge, and Sol Gate.

Meet your newest Warframe: The Wisp

With this update comes Warframe‘s 40th…well, Warframe. The Wisp is a rather intriguing, support-based Warframe. Her light abilities can heal and enhance herself and her allies to a considerable degree. She also comes with several crowd control abilities, making her a useful hybrid of sorts. That said, she can certainly dish it out, as well.

Wisp comes with a variety of useful skills she can utilize to assist her team:

  • Wil-O-Wisp: Useful for crowd control, Wisp conjures an illusion of herself which attracts the enemy’s attention. She can reactivate it to travel to its position.
  • Reservoirs: The Wisp summons a Mote Reservoir. These stick to Wisp’s team and confer certain benefits. These benefits can be chosen, and they range from healing and health buffs to increased speed and even stunning enemies.
  • Phased: This is Wisp’s Passive ability. She can momentarily alter her plane of existence in a ‘blink’ ability that renders her undetectable by enemies while airborne.
  • Breach Surge: This ability opens an interdimensional rift which causes enemies to spawn Surge sparks when they lose health.
  • Sol Gate: This is Wisp’s main DPS ability. She shoots a beam of solar energy to nuke enemies.

This skillset makes Wisp sure to be a highly engaging — albeit rather challenging, no doubt — Warframe to master. One thing is for sure: Wisp will be enjoyed by thousands of Warframe fans in the weeks to come. Acquiring her is no walk in the park, however. Would-be Wisps will have to overcome an engaging new game mode and fierce new enemies before they gain her reins.

Nightmarish enemies await the bravest of Warframes in Jupiter Gas City.

New baddies in The Jovian Concord

You’ll face new and challenging enemies in this update. The first new danger players will encounter are the Amalgams. As the name suggests, these creatures are cyborg in nature, a combination of Alad V’s malevolent experimentation and Sentient technology. There are also Demolysts, which are a key component of the newest Warframe game mode.

The new Disruption mode offers new challenges for even the most seasoned Warframes out there.

New Warframe game mode: Disruption

In order to progress, players must find lore items by completing certain missions. In addition to Sabotage, Spy, and Rescue missions, they must also beat the new “Disruption” game mode. This endless mission sees the Tenno defending terminals from the mini-boss Demolysts.

Players must first hack a terminal, which spawns endless waves of Amalgams. Killing and looting these enemies will provide the Tenno with keys for the terminals. Once that occurs, a Demolyst will spawn, which players must kill in order to successfully defend that terminal. Once all four terminals are interacted with and defended, the Tenno are rewarded and can either choose to leave or stay in the battle and continue. The main objective here is to keep going until all players have the components they need to progress to the boss of Gas City, and the key to unlocking The Wisp.

“Known and unknowable. This thing has haunted my life, waking and asleep, ever since I made that accursed bargain. A parasite at the core of my city. It drains my wealth, my power, my reactors… and my dignity.”

The terror of Gas City: The Ropalolyst

This is the conclusion of The Jovian Concord, the big bad of this update. Hailing to the Sentient, the Ropalolyst is a massive flying threat to the very city players have finally stormed through. It’s just as deadly on the ground as it is in the air, however, so tread with apprehension. The strategy to downing the final hurdle in this update is fairly complicated, with four different phases:

  1. Players will notice three electric generators on the main platform. They must wait next to one of these generators until the beast shoots at it. It will absorb the Ropalolyst’s energy, charging it.
  2. When the generator is fully charged, players must burn the boss’ shields down with void damage. From here, the only way to progress is to get up close and personal and ride the boss – right into the generator, which dishes out some serious zapping action.
  3. At this point, the Ropalolyst is grounded. Shooting at its back will daze it.  Approach a console on the main platform to activate a blast which will deal some serious damage to it.
  4. In the last phase, the boss can be damaged by regular weapons, so just burn it down. Once its health is depleted, the boss will become weakened, which at that point you must simply utilize the laser console to finish it off.

But wait, there’s more!

The Jovian Concord offers a lot more as well, from new mod sets to Tenno reinforcements. Full patch notes for this Warframe update can be found here. In addition, this update offers greater security for Warframe fans, finally allowing two-factor authentication on the PC. This is a pretty massive update for the Warframe community, so don’t hesitate to grab it!
