Duviri and the Circuit

Duviri is a world of floating islands in the middle of the Void. The moody king Dominus Thrax rules it, and his mood colors the whole land. Unlike usual, you do not start with your own loadout. You pick a Warframe and weapons from a random selection, and on the surface you play the Drifter instead of your Warframe. Duviri is a key source of Pathos Clamps, Arcanes, Warframe blueprints and above all Incarnon Genesis adapters.

The key terms in short:

Drifter

The adult version of your Operator. You control them on the surface of Duviri, with a melee weapon, a pistol and their mount, the Kaithe.

Spiral

One of Dominus Thrax’s moods, such as Anger or Sorrow. It decides colors, islands and the damage enemies deal. It changes every 2 hours.

Decree

A bonus that only lasts for your current visit to Duviri. After each task you pick one from several offers.

Undercroft

The underworld of Duviri. There you play normal missions like Defense or Survival with your Warframe.

The Circuit

An endless mode with Warframes only. It gives weekly rewards, and on the Steel Path also Incarnon Genesis adapters.

Pathos Clamp

The most important Duviri resource. You need it for Incarnon adapters, for Kullervo and for purchases from Acrithis.

Intrinsics

Permanent Drifter skills in four areas. You earn points for them by completing tasks in Duviri.

1. 01

   Clear the Uranus Junction

   The quest “The Duviri Paradox” unlocks once you have completed the Junction from Saturn to Uranus.

2. 02

   Play “The Duviri Paradox”

   The quest is solo. You meet the Drifter, Teshin, Decrees and the Undercroft. At the end you get your first Kaithe and the Sun & Moon blueprint.

3. 03

   Enter Duviri

   After that you reach Duviri through the Dominus Thrax icon in the top right of the Star Chart. Every visit starts in Teshin’s Cave, where you choose your gear.

4. 04

   Open the Steel Path

   For Duviri on the How to unlock and master the Steel Path you need the Steel Path on the normal Star Chart. You also have to complete each of the three Duviri modes once on normal.

Duviri has three modes. The Undercroft is not a mode of its own but the place where you fight with your Warframe. You end up there both in the story and in the Circuit.

A Spiral is a small story of six tasks. You play four of them as the Drifter on the surface and two with your Warframe in the Undercroft. At the end you fight an Orowyrm, a giant dragon.

Mood	Enemy damage
Joy	Void
Anger	Heat
Envy	Toxin
Sorrow	Cold
Fear	Electricity

• Each task gives a Duviri resource, 3 Intrinsics and a normal Decree. A trip into the Undercroft gives twice as much and a rare Decree.
• The Orowyrm gives 10 Pathos Kıskacı and 15 Intrinsics. On the Steel Path it is 15 Pathos Clamps, 22 Intrinsics and 5 Steel Essence.
• In the Duviri Experience up to 3 side portals into the Undercroft can appear. You need at least 7 Decrees and the enemies are tougher. In return, every portal gives an Arcane and Pathos Clamps (1, or 3 on the Steel Path).
• Kullervo’s island only appears in the Anger, Sorrow and Fear Spirals.

Decrees are bonuses that only last for one visit. After each task you pick one out of 3 offers. If you get the same Decree again, it ranks up. Rare Decrees are golden and much stronger. Black Decrees with a red shimmer give a big bonus but also a drawback.

• Rare Decrees come from the Undercroft, the Orowyrm and, once per visit, from Acrithis for Duviri resources.
• Many Decrees also work on your Warframe, for example double melee hits or bonus damage against enemies with Cold status.
• In the Circuit you earn Decrees by collecting the 3 blue fragments in each stage.

In the Circuit you play mission after mission in the Undercroft: Defense, Survival, Excavation, Exterminate, Void Flood, Alchemy and, from stage 5, a corrupted Jackal. Every cleared stage gives Circuit progress: 100, 110, 125, 145 and then 170 each. The fourth stage gives 50 extra once a day.

• Normal Circuit: every week 3 Warframes are on offer. You pick one and earn its blueprints step by step as rewards.
• Steel Path Circuit: every week 5 Incarnon Genesis adapters are on offer. At tier 5 and 10 you take one each. More in the Incarnon: awaken old weapons tutorial.
• Progress adds up over the whole week. You do not have to do it all in one run.
• Each tier of the reward track can only be claimed once a week. Reset is every Monday at 00:00 UTC.

Without breaks you need about 23 missions for tier 10 in the normal Circuit and about 34 on the Steel Path. The Warframes in the normal Circuit rotate in an 11-week cycle:

• Week 1: Excalibur, Trinity, Ember
• Week 2: Loki, Mag, Rhino
• Week 3: Ash, Frost, Nyx
• Week 4: Saryn, Vauban, Nova
• Week 5: Nekros, Valkyr, Oberon
• Week 6: Hydroid, Mirage, Limbo
• Week 7: Mesa, Chroma, Atlas
• Week 8: Ivara, Inaros, Titania
• Week 9: Nidus, Octavia, Harrow
• Week 10: Gara, Khora, Revenant
• Week 11: Garuda, Baruuk, Hildryn

Intrinsics are permanent skills with 10 ranks each. You earn the points from every task in Duviri. For the Circuit, Opportunity and Endurance matter most.

• Pathos Kıskacı comes from the Orowyrm, the Undercroft side portals and Isleweaver. Resource boosters do not affect it.
• Runik İliği only exists in the Undercroft and the Circuit, from Runic Compacts and guaranteed from the corrupted Vor and Jackal.
• Plants like Eevani, Kovnik, Drac Kökü and Ueymag as well as Tasoma Özü are gathered on the surface. You need them for Incarnon adapters. With Riding rank 5, plants and rocks show up on your map while riding.
• Ağıt drops from Dax enemies.

Acrithis is in the Dormizone and travels around Duviri. Every week she sells 5 offers for Pathos Clamps, for example a Forma blueprint for 10, an Orokin Reactor blueprint or an Exilus adapter for 20 each, Rivens for 15 and 10,000 Kuva for 10. With Opportunity rank 9 she also sells one Duviri Arcane per day for 10 or 20 Pathos Clamps.

Kullervo is the Duviri Warframe. You buy his blueprints from Acrithis for 42 Kullervo’s Bane in total. You only get this resource if you defeat Kullervo during Anger, Sorrow or Fear and also beat the Orowyrm in the same run (4 to 6, or 6 to 8 on the Steel Path). Building Kullervo costs 30,000 credits and 10 Pathos Clamps and takes 3 days. Another 30 Kullervo’s Bane get you the Rauta shotgun.

1. 01

   Steel Path Circuit

   Play to tier 10 of the reward track and take both Incarnon Genesis adapters. This is the most valuable reward in Duviri.

2. 02

   Normal Circuit if you need the Warframe

   If a Warframe you are missing is on offer, play to tier 10. Then you have every blueprint in one week.

3. 03

   Farm Pathos Clamps

   Every adapter costs 20 Pathos Clamps to install. “The Lone Story” is the fastest way there, especially on the Steel Path.

4. 04

   Farm Kullervo

   If you still need Kullervo, play the Duviri Experience during Anger, Sorrow or Fear. That way you do Kullervo and the side portals in the same run.

5. 05

   Shop at Acrithis

   Check her weekly offers after the reset. A Forma blueprint for 10 Pathos Clamps is often a good deal.
