Info

  • Birthed from Wisp's dimensional habitat, three species of Reservoir pods nursing friendly Motes can be selectively summoned by Wisp. Tap the ability key to freely cycle the selection wheel between the Vitality, Haste, and Shock reservoirs. Hold down the ability key to summon the selected reservoir from a portal above Wisp for 25 energy, placing the pod directly in front of her. The reservoir pods have a range of 5 meters and last indefinitely, while the motes retrieved from the pods lasts 19 / 22/ 26 / 30 seconds while outside of the reservoirs. Wisp can summon a maximum of 6 reservoir pods.
    • Casting additional reservoir pods will replace the oldest pod.
    • Up to three different reservoir types can be unlocked as the ability is ranked up:
      • Vitality: unlocked by default (Unranked Warframe)
      • Haste: unlocked at rank 1 (Warframe Rank 7)
      • Shock: unlocked at rank 2 (Warframe Rank 14)
    • Reservoir selection wheel is displayed above the ability icons. The icon for the currently selected type is enlarged and shown on the left of the wheel. Tapping the ability key (default 1 ) will cycle between the reservoir types, while holding the key will deploy the selected reservoir (tap/hold functions can be inverted in the Settings).

  • Reservoir pods are invulnerable static floating objects that are permanently placed until removed by Wisp or by colliding with Nullifier Crewman bubbles.
  • Each reservoir pod spawns a floating Mote above it, which can be plucked an infinite amount of times by Wisp, other Warframes, Companions, summoned allied units such as Specters and Railjack Crews, allied Invasion units, Hostages, converted Liches and Sisters, Kavor Defectors, Sortie and Arbitrations Defense Operatives, and Defense Objects coming into the reservoir's range.
    • This includes at least some allies spawned via Warframe abilities such as  Nidus's Maggots via his  Ravenous ability.
    • Motes attach to the entity that plucked them, floating in orbit and following their target wherever they go.
  • Motes grant the affected entity a specialized buff based on the reservoir type.
  • Motes respawn from their reservoirs after a brief cooldown if taken by an entity.
  • Motes last for a duration, with their timers able to be refreshed and paused indefinitely while the buffed entities are standing in range of the respective reservoir type.
  • Reservoir pods take on Wisp's Ability Strength when placed, and will remain at that Ability Strength percentage indefinitely.
  • If there are multiple reservoir pods, the pod with the highest buff value will take effect, with its corresponding duration.
    • A lower-value pod will still refresh the duration of a higher-value pod.
  • Each entity is limited to 1 active Mote buff per reservoir type.

  • The Vitality Mote increases maximum Health by 300 and restores 30 health per second.
  • Vitality Mote appears made of Infested flesh and sinew, shaped similar to a beetle shell with a red U-shaped crown.
  • Vitality Reservoir appears as a three-petalled plant with a red crown at its base. It constantly emits a flame-like energy particle effect.

  • The Haste Mote increases Movement Speed and melee Attack Speed by 20% and Fire Rate by 30%.
  • Haste Mote appears made of Infested flesh and sinew, shaped similar to a beetle shell with a green oval-shaped crown.
  • Haste Reservoir appears as a three-petalled plant with a green crown at its base. It constantly emits a liquid-like energy particle effect.

  • The Shock Mote stores an electrical charge that zaps up to 5 enemies within 15 meters with chain lightning every 3 seconds, dealing 10  Electricity damage with a guaranteed Status Effect to stun enemies.
    • The electric charge shows as electricity surging around the Shock Mote when ready to discharge.
  • Shock Mote appears made of Infested flesh and sinew, shaped similar to a beetle shell with a blue hammer-like crown.
  • Shock Reservoir appears as a three-petalled plant with a blue crown at its base. It constantly emits an electrical spark particle effect.


    • Ability Synergy:
      • Casting  Breach Surge on an active reservoir pod will teleport Wisp to its location and double Breach Surge's range.
        • Targeting a reservoir pod with the reticle will encircle it with Wisp's chosen energy color to indicate Breach Surge's ability to be cast on it and can be used at any range, provided there is line of sight.
        • Reservoir pods can be targeted through solid surfaces provided there is vision of them (e.g. windows).
        • Wisp cannot teleport to a pod while within less than 10 meters of it.
      • Currently obtained Motes provide additional properties to  Sol Gate.
        • Vitality: Provides a 25% damage increase.
        • Haste: Allows Sol Gate to deal  Corrosive procs on every damage instance.
        • Shock: Provides a 25% damage increase.

    Tips & Tricks

    • Avoid using Shock Motes in Spy missions, as it can hit Grineer Sensor Regulators and alert them.
    • Because motes will refresh the duration of any other mote buff (regardless of power), you can make very effective use of temporary Ability Strength buffs such as Growing Power, Energy Conversion, or (especially) the power increase from a Void Fissure mission. You can put down reservoirs while under these effects, acquire more powerful reservoir buffs, and then endlessly refresh their duration using regular-strength reservoirs. This makes any buff to power strength effectively infinite in duration, so long as you do not let your reservoir buffs expire (or get nullified).
      • Similarly, if there are multiple Wisps in a mission, they can space their reservoirs out to effectively gain all the buff benefits of the strongest Wisp, while also increasing the area covered.
