Necrathene is a gem resource in Warframe that can be found in the Cambion Drift open-world game mode. Warframe is one of the live-service games that has improved the most since its release, with gameplay and game mode updates frequently being added to keep things interesting and fresh for the player base.

What Is Necrathene?

Warframe Necrathene

Necrathene is a gem resource that players can find in the Cambion Drift. Players can use Necrathene to craft it into Stellated Necrathene or trade it for Otak Tokens in quantities of 4 to 25.

Stellated Necrathene is a very useful resource; being used as part of the components for building the Catobolyst weapon, the Voidrig mechsuit, and a K-Drive Hoverboard.

Since players will likely spend a lot of time in the Cambion Drift, it is more efficient for them to pick up the Necrathene they find in order to craft it into Stellated Necrathene and move on to building these powerful late-game items and having more overpowered Warframe builds.

How To Get Necrathene

Players can obtain Necrathene through the Cambion Drift open-world game mode. To get here, players must complete the Warframe Heart of Deimos quest which unlocks the Cambion Drift. Despite being, at its core, a dungeon shooter, Warframe's open-world areas match even the best free open-world games.

As with all open-world areas on Warframe, players will have a lot to do: including collecting newer resources that are not found in the normal instance-based dungeons, special mission types, and using Voidrigs as well as K-Drive launchers. While taking on all that the Cambion Drift has to offer, players will be able to pick up Necrathene from the mining mini-game that can be found in various locations.

The drop rates seem to be hard to predict, similarly to Warframe fish oil which can be difficult to get, with results varying wildly according to the testimony of players on the Warframe subreddit and forum. What's clear is that Necrathene is a rare resource that will take players time to obtain large quantities of. Luckily, players can pretty much passively mine on Warframe, so it is best to go for Necrathene passively while mining for a while and doing something else while playing. This makes for a more efficient method of obtaining them because players are less likely to burn out since they aren't putting their entire focus into farming the resource.

Warframe was released in 2013 and is available on PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One Series S/X, and the Nintendo Switch.
