Dante writes a book, heals the squad with it, and hits things with the same book when he has to. The combinations of his four verses decide everything: one hands out overshields, another blinds and finishes. One of the densest frames of recent years.
Can you buy Dante for platinum

In short, yes, Dante costs 350 platinum in the Market and arrives fully built with a free slot.
- Price. 350 platinum for a built Dante with a slot for it.
- Mastery. It ticks the same whether the frame was bought or built, so buying saves time, not rank.
Is there a Dante Prime

No, there is no Prime version of Dante yet. Primes usually arrive about two years after the original and strictly in order, so the turn will come, but nobody can promise a date.
Where the blueprints come from

The main blueprint and all three components drop from Rotation C of Disruption on Armatus, Deimos. Access opens after The Deadlock Protocol and Whispers in the Walls. If you would rather not depend on chance, Loid in Sanctum Anatomica sells the same blueprints for Vessel Capillaries: Armatus demolishers drop 2 to 4 apiece, 5 to 7 on The Steel Path. A component costs 90, the main blueprint 270, the whole set 540.
What it is built from

The Foundry wants four runs: three components first, the final assembly after. Components run in the Foundry at the same time, so from the first click to a finished frame it is roughly 84 h: twelve for the parts and 72 for the Warframe itself.
| Blueprint | Credits | Time | Resources per build |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chassis | 15 000 | 12 h | Entrati Lanthorn x2, Alloy Plate x8 000, Entrati Obols x12 000, Plastids x2 000 |
| Neuroptics | 15 000 | 12 h | Entrati Lanthorn x3, Control Module x10, Bellow Voca x4, Neural Sensors x4 |
| Systems | 15 000 | 12 h | Entrati Lanthorn x3, Circuits x4 000, Entrati Obols x9 000, Necracoil x450 |
| Dante | 25 000 | 72 h | Dante Neuroptics x1, Dante Chassis x1, Dante Systems x1, Orokin Cell x3 |
Where to farm the resources

There is exactly one bottleneck here, and it is Entrati Obols: the recipe wants 21 000 and it will not pile up on its own. Hollvania in 1999, from the Entrati Lab and its bounties. Second heaviest is Entrati Lanthorn at 8. Cavia bounties in the Sanctum Anatomica and Zariman missions. Bounty rewards are the steadier of the two. Everything else accumulates while you play and needs no special trip.
| Resource | Where it drops |
|---|---|
| Orokin Cell | Ceres, Saturn, and Deimos |
| Entrati Lanthorn | Albrecht's Laboratories (Deimos) and Zariman |
| Alloy Plate | Venus, Phobos, Ceres, Jupiter, Pluto, and Sedna |
| Entrati Obols | Albrecht's Laboratories (Deimos) |
| Plastids | Phobos, Saturn, Uranus, Pluto, and Eris |
| Control Module | Europa, Neptune, and the Void |
| Bellow Voca | Albrecht's Laboratories (Deimos) |
| Neural Sensors | Jupiter |
| Circuits | Venus, Ceres, and the Kuva Fortress |
| Necracoil | Albrecht's Laboratories (Deimos) |
Is Dante worth building
Dante writes: Tragedy erases a room that Dark Verse has marked, and Pageflight hands out overguard to everyone nearby.
The numbers look like this: no mastery rank requirement, roughly 84 hours from the first foundry press to a finished frame, and 70 000 credits across all the builds together.
The best all-round support released in years. The catch is that his combos take a while to learn.
Every other frame is broken down the same way, the full list lives in the guide to all Warframes.
