Boss Fight

If you are someone who went with either Mag or Volt, there are other ways of getting Excalibur in the game. The blueprints of the character is obtainable from Lieutenant Lech Kril on War, Mars.

He is one of the first boss fights in the game, located in the War node. Battling him isn’t the easiest task, but you have to stick to the plan. Target the coolant tank mounted on his back. Once you break it, the Lieutenant will get in a fit of anger and slam his hammer on the ground. This action will freeze him temporarily, granting you a window to attack. After a repeat of this situation, Lech Kril will enter a cut scene, marking the beginning of a new phase.

This phase will offer much more opportunities to attack the boss. He will stay unguarded and enraged, so take advantage and score some damage.

Once you defeat the boss, one of the three components will drop. It can be the Excalibur Systems, Chassis, or the Neuroptics. Repeat the mission again to get all the parts. After collecting all of them,visit your Orbiter and build the Excalibur in the foundry.

You can also buy the blueprints from the Warframe market using credits. The entire Excalibur blueprint will cost 35,000 credits or 75 platinum.
