In the third-person sci-fi shooter Warframe, a wild pumpkin head on four legs runs amok, fitting for the Halloween weekend.
The Jack O’ Naut has awakened and is wreaking havoc on Earth. Before it devastates the entire planet, it must be shown where the pepper grows during the tactical alert that lasts until November 1st.
This shouldn’t be a problem, especially since the enemy level is in the single digits. But since things are not always as they seem at Halloween, this mission has a little twist: you have no weapons and must rely solely on your bare fists.
Additionally, you will find that your Warframe mods are also unavailable and you have significantly less shield and health before you drop.
But first, you need to hack two consoles and bring the two energy cells that you uncover to a closed door to open it. After that, Jack O’ Naut will confront you. However, you should not try to beat him with your fists since that does not bother him at all, and you’ll quickly find yourself on the ground.
To defeat the monster, you need to lure it into the pumpkins scattered around, as it only takes damage that way. Throughout the mission, however, you will not only deal with him but also with a horde of Infested.
Once you have dismantled the wild pumpkin, you will receive an Orokin Accelerator blueprint. Additionally, after another successful victory over Jack O’ Naut, you will receive a “Day of the Dead” seal. Even on a third visit, you can still snag a crafted Orokin Reactor. But to get that, you may have to make several attempts.
Speed Counts
The last part of the tactical alert consists of completing it within a certain time. When you spawn, a timer starts counting down from 999. Now you need to hurry, as you should reach the endpoint of the mission by the time it hits 666 seconds to receive the reward.
Tip: Try to leave all enemies and fallen teammates behind, as reviving takes too much time, and you risk falling right next to the dying teammates.
Skins & Double Experience
During the spooky season, there are also many time-limited “Day of the Dead” skins for various weapons, ships, syandanas, and glyphs available on the market. Additionally, you can purchase a Halloween color palette and the Dullahan pumpkin head mask, both available for 1 credit each.
Lastly, from this evening, October 28, until Sunday evening, October 31, there will be a double XP weekend in Warframe. The perfect time to bomb your gear with Forma to optimize it and get the most out of it. And if you happen not to have any Forma on hand, a visit to the Warframe Halloween page is recommended. With a few clicks, a Forma will be sent to your in-game mailbox in no time.
