Guide to Warframe Acolytes - All you need to know

Last updated there is January 2, 2020

Acolytes in warframe are followers of Stalker. During infrequent events, they are available to fight in the game and can drop powerful mods that are very sought after by the players. The acolytes will appear in the game about once a year, appearing at random on the Star Chart. They appear one at a time and must be found in the game by a player when this happens, their location is then indicated on the stars table for all other players.

The acolytes have a global health bar, which is slowly chipped as different tentno groups fight it. When the bar of life reaches a certain level, it will move to a new node and must be found. When this main health bar has disappeared, the acolyte is replaced by a new acolyte.

Once a node is known, players can then load in the mission but will have to completely explore the card to find the acolyte. A piece will be chosen randomly as a point of reappearance of the acolyte, and it will only appear when a player enters this room.

All the acolytes look like a warframe, but with the very distinctive head of the Stalker. They will leave the mission if they slaughter all the players at a time, if a certain time goes or if they suffer enough damage. They will not let a mod only if they leave too much damage.

There are six acolytes, and they abandon all different mods and rewards.

Acolytes can use certain capabilities. Like the Stalker, they can pull you out of all terrain on which you try to hold you to escape them, and they can also teleport instantly to your site if you move too far. For the Tenno experience, the acolytes are not particularly difficult to kill. Weapons like Tiger and its variants should make it a quick job, allowing you to quickly cultivate the nodes in which they appear.
