===Series 3 — Glassmaker===
Nightwave Series 3: Glassmaker began on May 12, 2020 at 2 p.m ET and ended on January 24, 2021 at 8 p.m ET.
====Story====
Series 3 introduced a mysterious Cephalon known as the "Glassmaker", named for crystallizing its victims into glass, a form of punishment used in the old Orokin era.
This series introduced a new interactive mechanic where players must perform detective work on the Glassmaker's victims to uncover the mystery behind the murderer.

====Mechanics====
*Every 24 ± 2 minutes server time a glowing orb spawned while in missions and "glassed" an enemy near it, similar to Void Fissures. The glass fissure was not static: after glassing one enemy it might have disappeared and then reappeared near another group of enemies, seemingly following the movements of the player so that the glassification always happened near them. This process repeated until 5 enemies had been glassed, after which it disappeared until the next 24 ± 2 minutes.
**Glassing could occur on any ground or Railjack mission that isn't a Void Fissure.
**These glassed enemies were invulnerable until the spiky crystals protruding from it were destroyed. Each glassed enemy killed gave standing and had a chance to drop 1 Cephalite Resonance, up to a maximum of standing per appearance.
***Glassed enemies could (and most often did) explode on death, dealing damage to units in their range (both Tenno and enemies).
***Cephalite drops were not affected by Resource Boosters or Resource Drop Chance Boosters.
***However, they were affected by loot abilities (, ) and Warframe Augment Mods (, , ).
***The player could not carry more than 20 Cephalite Resonances.
*With each new episode of the Series being released, a new Crime-simula scene could be accessed from the Nightwave menu.
**In this simulation, players could search and examine evidence pieces.
**The text and symbols on these pieces as well as their locations were randomized per player, so the evidence one had differed from the evidence another player had. Each piece of evidence had three variations. It was helpful to collate a screenshot of all evidence frames for easy reference during the Memory Weave.
**Once the key evidence pieces had been found, players were given the choice to enter a Memory Weave at the cost of 5 Cephalite Resonance.
***In the Weave, the player was presented with a series of choices of three platforms, one of which corresponded to each piece of evidence. Choosing the correct platform/evidence unlocked the next choice until all evidence pieces were exhausted. Choosing the incorrect platform/evidence caused the platform to break and the player to fall out of bounds, ejecting them from the Weave. Falling off the edge or missing any platform teleported the player back onto the main platform.
***The order of the questions given was always random.
***The player had 60 seconds to choose and select all correct answers in sequence.
***Abilities and aim gliding could not be used in the weave.
***Failing the weave required the player to repay the "fee" of 5 Cephalite Resonance to retry again.
***After reaching the final platform, the player was rewarded with a "conclusion" piece of evidence and standing for completing the Episode's Crime-simula.
****Reattempting an already cleared Crime-simula did not yield additional awards, and still consumed Cephalite.
*Completion of Episode 5's Crime-simula and memory weave transitioned the player into a boss fight with Nihil.
**After completing the memory weave, a crystal appeared in the Crime-simula that lead directly to the Nihil fight. Reattempting the boss fight did not require Cephalite Resonance.
**Completion of other episode's crime-simulas were not required to enter the Nihil fight.
**Defeating Nihil awarded an inbox message containing the Blueprint and Nihil's Oubliette Orbiter Decoration.
