After you’ve configured your Fulmin rifle and got the best build for Sevagoth Prime, you probably would want to know how to get Koumei in Warframe. The 58th Warframe in Warframe comes with a unique set of skills that revolve around luck and chance. Despite her interesting mechanics, getting Koumei is actually easier than obtaining many older Warframes.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through on how to get Koumei in Warframe without spending Platinum or real money, and the best way to start farming the it.
How to Get Koumei in Warframe
Before you can start farming for Koumei, there are a couple of things you need to unlock:
- Unlock Earth and the Cetus node.
- Complete the “Saya’s Vision” quest by speaking to Saya in Cetus.
If you’re a new player, this might require finishing the introductory mission on Cetus, which takes about 30 minutes. After that, you’ll be able to talk to Saya to start the “Saya’s Vision” quest, which unlocks the farming area for Koumei.
Farming the Koumei Warframe
Koumei can be farmed by playing a new game mode called Shrine Defense on Earth, located right next to the Cetus node. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what you need to do:
- Pick up the first offering and bring it to the shrine.
- Keep enemies away from the two offering areas—if they enter, the offering countdown will stop.
- Continue bringing offerings to the shrine until the area boss appears.
- Reduce the boss’s HP to half.
- Deliver the final two shrine offerings to remove the boss’s invulnerability.
- Defeat the boss.
You don’t need to defend the shrine itself, but you must keep certain spots clear of enemies to prevent the mission timer from stopping. Having more players in your squad can speed up the process significantly.
Shrine Defense Rewards
After completing a Shrine Defense mission, you’ll receive resources that are key to farming the Koumei Warframe:
- 14-18 Fate Pearls
- 20-24 Fate Pearls on Steel Path difficulty
- A low chance of receiving a Koumei blueprint
Saving Fate Pearls for Koumei
To buy all of Koumei’s parts, you will need a total of 330 Fate Pearls. It’s a good idea to save your Fate Pearls until you reach this number before trying to buy any blueprints. While there is a small chance you might get a Koumei blueprint as a drop during Shrine Defense, saving up your Fate Pearls ensures you can buy the blueprint if you’re not lucky.
Once you have 330 Fate Pearls, head back to Saya in Cetus on Earth. You can use the “Offer Fate Pearls” option to purchase Koumei’s blueprints from her.
Additional Costs and Crafting Time
After collecting the blueprints, you will need an additional 102 Fate Pearls to craft Koumei in the Foundry. In total, you’ll need to farm 432 Fate Pearls to fully unlock and craft it.
Once you’ve gathered all the necessary resources and crafted Koumei, keep in mind that the Foundry will take 3.5 days to complete the crafting process.
Now that you know how to get Koumei in Warframe, farming it should be a straightforward process for you once you unlock the necessary missions. By playing Shrine Defense on Earth and gathering Fate Pearls, you can quickly unlock Koumei without spending any real money. Just remember to save up 432 Fate Pearls to cover the full cost of both buying and crafting it.
