Armor is an attribute that reduces damage taken to health but not to shields. Not all enemies possess armor; Warframes, most bosses, and all Grineer do, but normal Corpus and Infested enemies do not have any. For a given Warframe, its armor value can be found in the Arsenal.
How do levels work in Warframe?
As a player levels up different Warframes and weapons, it earns mastery towards their total player level. For every level a weapon gains, it will provide the player with 100 points, and 200 for Warframes, Companions and Archwings. However, an item can only count towards mastery once.
How does damage reduction work in Warframe?
Types of Damage Reduction damage dealt to the neutral shields of an enemy that has a +25% modifier to slash on its health will not take increased damage to its shields. The exception to this are damage modifiers on armor, which do apply to health as well, but not to shields.
What is the highest mastery rank in Warframe?
Warframe, Companions, and Archwings give 200 mastery points for each rank for a maximum of 6000 MR points when rank 30 is obtained.
What is the max rank in Warframe?
What is the EHP scaling for armored enemies?
Current EHP scaling for enemies with only health and shields compared to previous scaling at Base Level = 1. The standardized effective hit-points of armored enemies are simply the health divided by the compliment of the damage reduction granted from armor.
How does armor affect the level scaling of enemies?
The standardized effective hit-points of armored enemies are simply the health divided by the compliment of the damage reduction granted from armor. Because armor adds damage reduction to incoming damage on health the level scaling of standardized effective hit-points of armored enemies is influenced by the base armor itself:
What is the scaling formula for enemy shields?
Current health scaling compared to previous scaling at Base Level = 1. For shields, the ranges of level differences at which scaling transitions from exponential growth to a plateau is between 70 & 80. The formula by which enemy shields scale is as follows:
What are the scaling ranges for shield and armor?
*Note that the following Health, Shield, and Armor scaling formula are derived from in-game testing and have not been confirmed or denied valid by Digital Extremes at this time. The accuracy of the following information is still under review. For health, the level ranges at which scaling transitions from exponential growth to a plateau is 70-85.
