==Notes==
*Equinox's first Emissive Color determines which form she begins with during a mission – light-colored hues has her start in her Day Form, and dark-colored hues has her start in her Night Form. This does not affect her overall gameplay otherwise.
*Equinox currently requires the most components to build, requiring four blueprints each for the Night and Day Aspects, and one for the Warframe itself. This totals to 9 components.
*Equinox is one of the most expensive Warframes in credits to build, with the total cost amounting to . This includes the cost to buy the Equinox blueprint from the Market along with the cost in constructing a Forma.
**Equinox is currently the only Warframe that requires a Forma to build.
*Rushing through all the components requires . If a player desires to rush all of the components, including the main blueprint, it may be wiser to outright buy the Warframe from the market for , which saves for the pre-installed Orokin Reactor and the Warframe slot.
*Equinox is currently the longest to build out of all Warframes. Each component to the Day and Night Aspects takes 12 hours to craft, the Aspects themselves both take 72 hours, and the Warframe itself takes another 72 hours, to a total of 156 hours at minimum.
==Trivia==
*Despite the androgynous nature of Equinox's design, former Community Editorial Coordinator Adam Ma has confirmed that Equinox is a female Warframe with a masculine form.Building Warframe: Equinox
*Equinox appears as her composite form (both day and night) in any shared space, such as in the player's Landing Craft, in Relays, or while using Archwings. This form can also be seen briefly when shifting between forms with .
** When customizing her appearance, a button in the bottom right of the screen labelled "Metamorphosis" allows players to switch between Equinox's three forms. However, leaving the Appearance menu reverts Equinox back to her Composite form.
*Equinox refers to a biannual event where daytime and night are of roughly equal duration.
**During her development, Equinox's separate forms were originally referred to as Anima and Animus, both of which are concepts in Jungian Psychology. They are respectively described as the feminine and masculine aspects of a person's psyche. Equinox is still referred to as 'AnimaAnimus' internally in the game files.
*When Equinox is equipped with Wisp's Agile animation, and unarmed, she will split into her day and night form, similarly to Wukong who spawns his Celestial Twin with the same animation.
