Dagath rides in on a ghost horse and hands out critical damage through Doom and Grave Spirit. Fast, mean and surprisingly sturdy for a frame with that little health.
Can you buy Dagath for platinum
Short answer: yes, Dagath costs 275 platinum in the Market and arrives fully built with a free slot.
- Price. 275 platinum for a built Dagath 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 Dagath Prime
No, there is no Prime version of Dagath 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 blueprints live in the Dagath's Hollow room in a clan dojo. The room needs no research at all, just construction. Components are paid for in Vainthorns, 102 of them in total. Vainthorn drops in the Abyssal Zone, a separate Exterminate mission on Ceres, entered with an Abyssal Beacon, and the beacons are sold by syndicates at Rank 2 for 5,000 standing. One clear gives 6 to 8, on The Steel Path 8 to 12. Only the player who started the vote spends a beacon.
This is where most people get stuck: the blueprints sit in a clan dojo, and a new player has no clan. It takes one evening to get past.
- Find a clan. Open the Recruiting chat in game and say you are looking for a clan with the Tenno Lab researched. There are almost always open spots and joining takes a minute.
- If the research is not done, any member with research rights can start it. Pick the frame in the Tenno Lab, the clan chips in resources, then a timer runs.
- You cannot buy the blueprints from another player. Clan lab blueprints are not tradeable. Only Prime parts are.
- If you would rather not hunt for a clan, two routes remain: 275 platinum for the finished frame in the shop, or a Prime set from the market.
What it is built from
The build runs in four passes: three components at twelve hours each, then the frame itself. 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 | Vainthorn x34, Salvage x1 500, Morphics x4, Argon Crystal x2 |
| Neuroptics | 15 000 | 12 h | Vainthorn x34, Alloy Plate x2 000, Neurodes x3, Neural Sensors x3 |
| Systems | 15 000 | 12 h | Vainthorn x34, Circuits x1 000, Control Module x5, Gallium x4 |
| Dagath | 25 000 | 72 h | Dagath Neuroptics x1, Dagath Chassis x1, Dagath Systems x1, Orokin Cell x3 |
Where to farm the resources
Dagath has no real resource bottleneck: everything on the list piles up while you play. The only item worth a deliberate trip is Argon Crystal, and you need 2. Void only, and it decays 24 hours after you pick it up. Farm it last, right before you press build.
| Resource | Where it drops |
|---|---|
| Orokin Cell | Ceres, Saturn, and Deimos |
| Vainthorn | Abyssal Zone on Ceres (requires Abyssal Beacons to access) |
| Salvage | Mars, Jupiter, and Sedna |
| Morphics | Mercury, Mars, Phobos, Europa, and Pluto |
| Argon Crystal | Missions in the Void |
| Alloy Plate | Venus, Phobos, Ceres, Jupiter, Pluto, and Sedna |
| Neurodes | Earth, Lua, Eris, and Deimos |
| Neural Sensors | Jupiter |
| Circuits | Venus, Ceres, and the Kuva Fortress |
| Control Module | Europa, Neptune, and the Void |
| Gallium | Mars and Uranus |
Is Dagath worth building
Dagath is fast and cheap to run: her horses seek enemies out and Rakhali's Cavalry keeps her energy topped up.
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.
One of the friendliest recent frames for newer players, and she comes out of the Circuit rotation for free.
Every other frame is broken down the same way, the full list lives in the guide to all Warframes.
