Besides cool weapons like the Fulmin Prime or Temple’s flamethrower guitar, Warframe Antivirus Mods should also be part of your gear. Developers Digital Extremes have just released the second part of its Warframe 1999 expansion, called Techrot Encore. This update introduces new gameplay mechanics, especially with the Technocyte Coda nemesis enemies. This is why players want to know how to farm Antivirus & Potency Mods.
While these enemies are similar to Kuva Liches and Tenet Sisters, they come with their own unique Warframe Antivirus Mods and Potency Mods. Here’s everything you need to know about these mods and how to farm them effectively.
What Are Warframe Antivirus Mods & Potency Mods?
Antivirus Mods are similar to Requiem Mods but are specifically designed for the Technocyte Coda enemies. You equip these mods in your Parazon dagger and use them to perform Mercy Kills on these enemies. Each Antivirus Mod has different types, and you’ll need specific combinations to defeat the Technocyte Coda effectively.
On the other hand, Potency Mods are also equipped in your Parazon slot. Their main purpose is to speed up the hunting process for Technocyte Coda enemies. Potency Mods boost the Disinfection rate and can provide additional rewards like Affinity (experience points) or in-game currencies. Unlike Antivirus Mods, Potency Mods are not required but are very helpful.
Both mod types have a limitation: you can only use them for three Mercy Kills before they disappear, so you’ll need to farm them again.
How to Farm Warframe Antivirus & Potency Mods
Farming Warframe Antivirus Mods and Potency Mods can be a bit random, so you might not always get the specific variants you want. Here’s where you can find them:
- For Antivirus Mods: Complete the Antivirus Bounty from the Hex at Hollvania Mall.
- For Potency Mods: Defeat Techrot enemies in any 1999 mission.
Since the rewards are random, it’s a good idea to trade excess Antivirus Mods with other players to get the ones you need.
