How to Unlock Helminth Invigoration in Warframe

My deepest nightmare come true. But great buffs, though!

Warframe offers a lot of content and there are a couple of secrets you can use to make your Warframes quite more powerful and skillful. One of these secrets is quite a weird and probably nightmare inducing mechanic that resides in your Orbiter. Helminth is an infested hivemind that has the ability to boost your Warframe’s skills. You can level Helminth in order to get the most powerful boosts available. Furthermore, thanks to a recent update, Helminth has received the ability to give Invigoration to your Warframes. Here is how to unlock Helminth Invigoration in Warframe.

How to Unlock Helminth Invigoration

Helminth Invigoration, added in the Sisters of Parvos update, makes the Helminth Segment system a lot more attractive for players to use. This hivemind infested mass will provide boosts to your Warframes’ abilities. Now, it will be able to grant a powerful buff once a week to three random Warframes. Eventually, after applying ten boosts or invigorations, you will be able to choose your next Warframe to be invigorated. Here is how to unlock Helminth Invigoration in Warframe.

Be sure to make the best out of the Invigoration’s buffs. Don’t forget to visit it often, so you can use it more strategically once you have the ability to choose which Warframe will receive a boost, aka an invigoration. Happy invigoration and happy hiveminding!
