Warframe: How to Get All Acolyte Mods & What They Do
While the Stalker may be constantly seeking to eliminate all Tenno who bare its mark, it’s not alone. The Striker also has Acolytes that do his bidding, and will randomly appear on the Star Chart in Warframe. Taking down these powerful opponents makes up a community event, but the rewards are well worth your time. Here’s how to get all Acolyte mods in Warframe and what they do.
Getting Acolyte Mods in Warframe
There are six Acolytes in Warframe that will randomly spawn once the last one has been beaten by the community.
To beat an Acolyte, you’ve first got to wait for the right moment. Acolytes only appear during limited-time events in-game, so keep an eye out over on the blog for when these are taking place.

Acolytes will always be wearing a Warframe, but can be easily spotted as they wear the same helmet as the Stalker. We’ve broken down each of their appearances below:
- Angst: Valkyr’s body with Immortal Skin and Vanquished Syandana
- Malice: Frost Prime’s body with machinery on its arms
- Mania: Loki’s body with Immortal Skin. Daedalus plate on left shoulder.
- Misery: Nekros’ body with Kyroptera Syandana. Oberon’s loincloth and Daedalus chest plate make up a codpiece.
- Torment: Mesa’s body. Equinox’s front tassels on the waist. Also wear a Naberus shoulder plate on right arm. Has an Eos chest plate as a codpiece.
- Violence: Limbo’s body, Hulta shoulder plates.
You can check the location of an Acolyte by opening up your Star Chart. Then, simply head over there. You’ll then need to seek it out within this larger area. If players are already fighting the Acolyte, just run over to all the commotion.
After chipping away at the Acolyte’s health for long enough, it’ll teleport off to another node on your Star Chart. Simply rinse and repeat the process of tracking it down and dealing damage alongside your fellow Tenno and eventually it’ll be defeated.
Upon defeating an Acolyte, you’ll be rewarded with one of Warframe’s Acolyte mods. Each Acolyte drops different mods. We’ve broken all of these down below, including their effects and drop rate, too.
