Beside getting the best Nokko Warframe build, players want to know how to rank up Nightcap Warframe. The Vallis Undermind update inWarframe brings a new NPC called Nightcap, who works like a syndicate. To earn rewards, you’ll need to increase your Warframe Nightcap standing, but ranking up here isn’t as simple as running missions or bounties like other factions. Instead, you’ll need to explore and collect special mushrooms found in the new area.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to rank up Nightcap Warframe quickly and efficiently.
How to Rank Up Nightcap Warframe

You can raise your Warframe Nightcap standing by collecting three of each of the 16 mushroom types in the Vallis Undermind update and analyzing them through Nightcap. You’ll find these mushrooms during Deepmines Bounties, so make sure to explore as you complete your missions. The mushrooms spawn randomly, so patience and careful searching are key.
Here’s the step-by-step guide on how to rank up Nightcap Warframe:
- Talk to Nightcap — You’ll find her in the Fortuna Airlock, to the left of the main Fortuna entrance.
- Open the Field Guide — This shows all mushroom types and tracks your progress.
- Check your collection — If you have three of the same mushroom type, select it and choose Analyze.
- Collect more mushrooms — If you don’t have three of any type, keep running Deepmines Bounties until you do.
- Look for icons — Mushrooms appear as small glowing icons on the ground. You’ll need to pick them up manually.
- Analyze regularly — After every bounty or mushroom hunt, check Nightcap’s Field Guide again to see if you can analyze new ones.
Required Mushrooms for Each Warframe Nightcap Standing
Nightcap Rank | Analyzed Mushrooms Requirement |
---|---|
Rank 1 | 1 Mushroom (3 mushrooms of the same type) |
Rank 2 | 2 Mushrooms (2 mushroom types, 3 mushrooms each) |
Rank 3 | 6 Mushrooms (6 mushroom types, 3 mushrooms each) |
Rank 4 | 12 Mushrooms (12 mushroom types, 3 mushrooms each) |
Rank 5 | 16 Mushrooms (16 mushroom types, 3 mushrooms each) |
In total, you’ll need 48 mushrooms (3 of each of the 16 types) to reach the highest Warframe Nightcap standing. However, because mushroom drops are random, you’ll likely gather more than necessary.
Once you’ve analyzed all mushroom types, you can compost extra mushrooms to earn Fergolyte, a resource used to buy Nokko Warframe blueprints, weapons, and other rewards from Nightcap’s shop.
Best Warframes for Mushroom Farming

To speed up mushroom collection in the Deepmines, use fast and mobile Warframes such as:
- Titania (great flight mobility)
- Volt (speed boost)
- Gauss (fast sprinting)
- Nezha (flaming dash and agility)
- Wukong (Celestial Twin helps gather faster)
- Nova (fast wormhole teleportation)
