Vessel Capillaries in Warframe

Vessel Capillaries are an important resource to get in Warframe because that’s how you get Dante, his signature weapons, and other miscellaneous items regarding the Sanctun Anatomica.

If you’re looking to get this fast, we have the methods on how to get it and the best way to farm it. 

How to get Vessel Capillaries in Warframe

To get Vessel Capillaries in Warframe, you have to play the Disruption mission, Armatus, on Deimos. It can be accessed after completing the Whispers in the Walls quest.

You can access this mission either through a Bounty given by Fibonacci or by just accessing it on the Star Chart. In any case, you’ll just play the Disruption mission like you do on any other planet, but you have to destroy the Demolisher Necramechs that spawn.

Each killed Necramech will drop a few units of this resource depending on what difficulty you play on.

The following are the amounts of Vessel Capillaries you get based on how you play Armatus:

  • Normal: 2 – 4 
  • Steel Path: 5 – 7

Best farm for Vessel Capillaries in Warframe

With what you know now about Vessel Capillaries, the best way to farm them is to play on Steel Path. Each successfully defeated Demolisher Necramech already yields more than the highest possible amount than those on the Normal mode.

On Steel Path, you’d have to kill, at the most, 252 Demolisher Necramechs so you can then earn enough Vessel Capillaries to get all of Dante’s parts and his weapons. However, that number can be a lot lower depending on luck from mission rewards and from getting more than five per kill.

This does mean that you will need a strong build since all enemies have 100 levels added to them along with 250% health, shield, and armor. 

If you can’t take on the Steel Path stuff because the enemies are too strong, you can opt for the normal mode as you can still run the chance of getting Dante’s parts and all the components of the weapons that were released with him. It’ll just take a bit longer
