Besides farming Coda Weapons and Neural Sensors, fans want to get their hands on Warframe prime relics. The usual issue players run into when a new Prime Warframe launches in Warframe is simple. They don’t have enough Relics to farm the Prime Parts. Luckily, there are better ways to build a Relic stash than sitting through five-minute Defense or Survival rotations.
Warframe relic packs are a cleaner option. They feel more rewarding, and they can also drop Aya, which is valuable if you’re hunting Vaulted Primes. Here’s how to earn Relic Packs, so farming Warframe prime relics becomes much easier.
How to Farm Warframe Prime Relics
There are multiple ways to get Warframe relic packs, but the real problem is visibility. The sources are scattered across different hubs and vendor menus. Because of that, it’s easy to miss a few if you don’t keep track.
So use the list below as a simple checklist for Warframe relic packs. If you’re actively playing, make sure you visit these at least once per day so you can buy packs whenever you have the Standing for them.
| Relic Pack Location | Relic Pack Cost (per pack) |
|---|---|
| Syndicate Offerings (Relay/Orbiter) | 20,000x Syndicate Standing |
| Teshin – Steel Path Honors (Relays) | 15x Steel Essence |
| Old Man Sumbaat – Wares (Cetus, Earth) | 20,000x Ostron Standing |
| Smokefinger – Wares (Fortuna, Venus) | 20,000x Solaris United Standing |
| Otak – Wares (Necralisk, Deimos) | 20,000x Entrati Standing |
Now, keep this in mind. Some of these sources reset weekly, like Steel Path Honors. Others depend on your Daily Standing cap. If you hit your Standing limit fast, you can buy a huge number of packs in one day. That means more Relics, plus more chances at Aya. It’s one of the fastest ways to stock up for Warframe prime relics.
Syndicate farming is usually the most efficient route, especially with the six main Syndicates: Steel Meridian, Arbiters of Hexis, Cephalon Suda, The Perrin Sequence, Red Veil, and New Loka. Just equip one of their Sigils and you’ll earn Standing while running normal missions.
Cheapest Method of Farming Warframe Relic Packs
If the goal is focused Relic Pack farming, this is the loop that works best:
- Rank up your two preferred allied Syndicates to Rank 5.
- Equip a Syndicate Sigil on a nuker Warframe like Dante, Volt, Sevagoth, Saryn, Mesa, and so on.
- Run your mission of choice that also drops Void Relics, so you earn Relics while building Standing for packs.
- Max out your Syndicate Standing for the day.
- Return to the Orbiter and buy as many Warframe relic packs as possible from the two Syndicates you support.
You can repeat the same routine daily with the Cetus, Fortuna, and Necralisk factions too. Also, make sure you check in with Teshin after doing Steel Path runs. Spend Steel Essence on Relic Packs whenever you can. Over time, this approach stacks up a lot of Warframe prime relics with far less waiting around.
