How to get and use Ignia in Warframe

Ignia is one of the several new resources introduced to Warframe as part of The Old Peace update, and it has plenty of importance.

While Ignia isn’t particularly hard to come by, you’ll need plenty of it. Additionally, obtaining this resource is locked behind completing one of the new modes added via the update. This guide will provide you with all the information you need first to find Ignia, and then use it in Warframe.

How to find Ignia in Warframe

The Old Peace Update has two new game modes: Descendia and Perita Rebellion. To find Ignia, you’ll need to play the former and clear multiple floors. The Descendia mode has 21 floors of various challenges and difficulty, with the final one pitting you against Roathe.

Certain levels of the Descendia mode will offer you Ignia, depending on whether you have successfully managed to clear them. There are bonus levels that reward you with Ignia as well if you’re playing on Steel Path difficulty.

• Normal Mode: Floor 2, 4, 9, 11, 16, and 18 offer you a chance to earn 40 Ignia each.
• Steel Path offers you a bonus chance to get 250 Ignia from Floors 2, 9, and 16.

While all of these sound sweet, there’s a catch about how much Ignia you can earn at any given time. You can collect the rewards once a week, and hitting the cap means that you’ll have to wait for the Sunday refresh. However, this also gives you plenty of time to hit the weekly cap and more so if you’re playing on the Steel Path difficulty.

Once you reach Floor 21 of the Descendia mode, you’ll find Roathe as the boss. Defeat Roathe, and he will then be available at La Cathedrale. You can browse different wares, and some of them will cost Ignia to purchase.

There are plenty of different items that you can purchase from Roathe, which also includes parts of the new frame, Uriel. Hence, try to maximize your weekly cap and farm as much Ignia as possible. If you’re a new/returning player, you’ll need to first clear many quests to gain access to The Old Peace missions, and then access Descendia and its floors.
