A lot of the mods you’ll acquire in Warframe are easy to obtain. I couldn’t keep track of the hundreds of copies I’ve gotten for certain mods like Steel Fiber and Vitality, but I’ll be happy to get some free Endo. While some like this are simple, a lot of mods are very specific and have a low chance of dropping. They also drop from certain activities only, like this mod. Here’s how to get the Hammer Shot mod in Warframe.
Where to get the Hammer Shot mod in Warframe
The Hammer Shot mod drops exclusively from Nightmare missions, which are found under the Alerts tab on your Star Chart. Here, you’ll find an array of Nightmare mode missions that you can complete. The Hammer Shot has a 1.01% chance to drop from Rotation A, so you’ll either need to run the mission until receiving the first reward or pick a short mission such as Rescue.
Alongside Hammer Shot, you can get the following rewards for Nightmare missions at the following chances:
- Chilling Reload – 22.11%
- Accelerated Blast – 18.97%
- Ice Storm – 18.97%
- Stunning Speed – 18.97%
- Wildfire – 18.97%
- Blaze – 1.01%
Among these, Blaze is naturally the most useful since it’s a great source of Heat Status Chance for a Shotgun.
Is the Hammer Shot mod worth using?
Hammer Shot is a Rifle mod that grants 60% increased Critical Damage while upping your Status Chance by 80%. This makes the mod great in builds that want both Status Chance and Critical Damage while pairing nicely with similar mods. For example, combining this mod with Vital Sense can grant 180% increased Critical Damage, thanks to mods being additive. If you want to farm Nightmare missions anyway, this is a worthy addition to your arsenal.
