Orphix (Mission)

Orphix is a Empyrean mission type where Tenno must fight against Sentient Orphix boarding Corpus Ships using Necramechs. It is derived from the events of Operation: Orphix Venom.
Players must complete The War Within to play in Orphix missions.

These missions are divided into two sections: Railjack objectives and a modified Survival mission that require players to defeat Orphix in a timely manner in order to survive.
===Orphix Spawns===
Orphix spawns are not random and occur once every minute, cycling through three distinct tile locations. The following diagram shows how the Orphix spawn locations are laid out in a linear fashion.
A 🡆 B 🡆(C)
 then
(C)🡆 B 🡆 A
 🡅 🡇
 C 🡄 B 🡄 A
 or
(C)🡆 A 🡆 B
 🡅 🡇
 C 🡄 A 🡄 B
 
The Orphix spawn pattern starts with Tile A, Tile B and then Tile C. After the 3rd Orphix, it changes to use the spawn pattern CBA-ABC or CAB-BAC. Note that spawning tiles will be adjacent but not necessarily in linear arrangement and probably have branch paths that lead to dead ends.
===Fighting the Orphix===
Orphix radiate a pulse field that disables Warframes and dispels any buffs and active abilities. Crossing into the pulse field with the Warframe will force the player into Operator mode to rely on their Necramechs via Necramech Summon. If the player does not own a Necramech, there will be fallen Necramechs to use Transference into, which are rank 30 and equipped with a but are unmodded.
There are two distinct phases when fighting an Orphix: destroying Orphix Resonators and weakening the Orphix.

The Orphix is protected by multiple Orphix Resonators near it and can only be damaged when all Resonators are destroyed, opening up its center blue cavity to spawn more Sentient troops to help defend it. In ascending order of frequency, Orphix can spawn Aerolysts, Summulysts, Choralysts, Ortholysts, Symbilysts, Conculysts, Battalysts, and Brachiolysts. At 50% health, the Orphix will close up its cavity to respawn Resonators. Once the Orphix is dead, all Sentient enemies spawned by that Orphix will disappear. The Sentient control meter will also decrease by 8% upon defeating an Orphix.
After successfully destroying three Orphix, players may extract or continue destroying more Orphix, up to a maximum of 36. Orphix will continue to spawn even if one is active; if Orphix are left active for 100 seconds (100% Sentient control), players cannot continue and are forced to extract. A mission failure will result if Sentient control reaches 100% when the player has not destroyed three Orphix.

==Locations==
==Mission Rewards==
The mission reward rotation is AABC. Every three destroyed Orphix serves as a rotation and will reward an item from the rotation table.
==Notes==
*Necramech Summon has a 1 minute cooldown to revive the Necramech.
*Players must hit the glowing blue cavity of Orphix with a direct hit to deal damage with area of effect weapons. Radial damage alone will not damage Orphix and is only applied to direct hit attacks.
*Orphix Resonators have 3,000 Object health.
*Destroying Resonators will decrease Sentient control by 5%.
*The event missions count towards challenges that involve survival missions, such as weekly Nightwave Acts.
*Tenno Specters will be killed instantly if affected by the Orphix pulse field.
==Tips==
*Early in the mission, Orphix Resonators can be instantly destroyed with the Operator's Amp or Necramech's Melee, Slide, and Slam Attack.
*While there are free Necramechs for use, their unmodded state means they won't get very far with the higher leveled enemies.
* and have infinite punch through and can damage the Orphix Resonators from everywhere.
**Alternatively, loading on whatever Arch-gun the Necramech uses gives it a better chance at hitting these resonators.
**While the and the do not have innate punch through, the explosions upon impact do, giving them a decent chance at destroying the resonators.
*The 's alt fire and deal massive damage to all enemies and the Orphix.
*The is capable of damaging the Orphix from any angle.
*Warframes can still use their abilities outside the pulse field. The following abilities can continuously generate energy for Necramechs:
**'s with augment
**'s 
**'s (can affect corpses inside the pulse field)
**'s 
**'s 
*Use 's and 's and to stay alive.
** aids in maintaining energy to cast abilities.
** can greatly improve the Necramech's survivability.
*The 's can heal Necramechs in a substantial amount.
*'s can heal Necramechs for 500 health over 5 seconds.
*Building for will allow for maximum damage against the armored Orphix and Sentients
*The Battalyst's omni-directional laser makes it arguably the deadliest enemy, dealing a lot of damage very quickly to multiple Necramechs at long range. The Bonewidow's Meathook can instantly interrupt its attack and render it out of commission.
== Trivia ==
* Despite this mission type becoming available once The War Within is completed, Natah's transmissions can still occur despite the Lotus not returning to the Sentient's side until The Sacrifice.
