Warframe Archwing Launcher Segment Guide

What is Archwing Launcher

What is archwing launcher? To put the answer in laymen’s terms: it is basically a pair of wings which players can use to fly during free roam missions. Even the gear item’s official description gives away the purpose of it by mentioning “Summons an Archwing for use during free roam missions” However, you will need the segment to use archwing launcher, and without the former, the latter is useless.

How to Get the Archwing Launcher Gear Item

In order to acquire the gear item, you will need to accumulate the following credits and materials.

Moreover, before you can actually get the blueprint of archwing launcher, you need to install the segment in the Foundry. Doing so gives you the option to unlock the blueprint of archwing launcher, which becomes accessible under the gear tab.

How to Get Archwing Launcher Segment

Basically, there are two ways to acquire the segment in Warframe. First, one of the easiest ways is to purchase it from the market at a 175 platinum price. Secondly, if you are not in haste, there is another way you can manufacture the gear by joining a clan.

Manufacturing Requirements

In order to get your hands on this item the cheaper way, you need to join a clan first. The quickest way to find a populated clan is to visit various Warframe Discord channels or Reddit posts. Once you have joined a clan, visit the Tenno lab located at your Clan Dojo, be at Mastery Rank 5 and accumulate the following materials and credits to buy the blueprint and manufacture the archwing launcher segment item.

Once you have collected all the required materials and credits mentioned below, you must go to Foundry and install the segment. After completing the manufacturing part, equip it as an item in your gear wheel.

How to Use Archwing Launcher Segment

Archwing Launcher is a must-have gear item. It allows the frames to conveniently traverse the landscape, such as in Orb Vallis or Plains of Eidolon. You can also use the segment for dodging enemies’ attacks. The availability of such gear items in Warframe potentially saves players a lot of time. Furthermore, once crafted, players can equip it in the gear menu and can use it infinitely. So do not be greedy and use it whenever you want without giving it a second thought.

Crafting

Fish Oil

In order to craft the Archwing Launcher Segment, one of the key ingredient materials that you need to get your hands on is Fish Oil. First of all, you need to acquire the proper fishing gear before you can begin your fish hunting. You will need a fishing rod and some bait to lure the big fish when you are fishing.

Tenno will have to build some reputation in the Ostron area in order to buy a fishing spear. The fastest way to do that is complete some bounties which you get in Plains of Eidolon. After you have completed a number of bounties, Tenno will get access to a merchant known as Fisher Hai-Luk. The trader will be easy to find because of all the fish hanging around the shop.

Fishing Gear Setup

Once you find the merchant, you will see three different fishing spears in the wares browse option. These fishing spears work for different kinds of fish. For example, some fish will have thick armor while some are soft-skinned. So, it is only obligatory to buy all these three fishing spears. You can equip only one fishing spear within your gear wheel. However, you will have access to all three of the fishing spears when you are in the Plains of Eidolon.

After getting the fishing spear, your second priority should be getting some bait. The Twilight Bait will do the trick in most cases. This bait will attract predatory fish in the lakes that are active either day or night. So, no matter what time of the day it is, the Twilight Bait will enable you to catch all kinds of fish. It only costs 100 standings which makes it facile to acquire. The Luminous Dye will reveal all the fish that are in your surrounding area. So, whenever you are fishing, this dye will come in handy.

Best Location

Once you have your fishing gear and the required bait, it is time to head into the Plains Of Eidolon. Cetus and Plains of Eidolon are one of the most popular places where you can get Fish Oil from fishing. We recommend that you look for big bodies of water. 

If you open your map, you will see a big pond of water in the middle of the Plains of Eidolon. You should be able to get a sufficient amount of fish which you can later extract to get Fish Oil. After you are done with fishing, you can fast-travel back to Fisher Hai-Luk. Interact with the merchant and select the Cut Fish option whilst selecting all the fish.

Iradite

You can find formations of Iradite scattered all over the Plains Of Eidolon. However, The Seethe, Er-Phryah’s Vigil, Renthi Spring, Seaside Ruin, Twin Horns, and Hek’s Stiletto are some good places to look for Iradite primarily. If you have a bounty activated while in Plains Of Eidolon, you will get double the amount of Iradite that you normally get. The best way to get Iradite is just to roam freely in Plains of Eidolon and keep an eye out for formations of Iradite.

Grokdrul

Grokdrul can be located mostly at Grineer outposts. You can get large amounts of Grokdrul if you activate the highest bounty mission before entering  Plains of Eidolon. A resource booster will prove useful in most cases. So, whenever you are liberating a Grineer outpost, keep an eye out for green canisters. Breaking these canisters will reward you with Grokdrul.

Circuits

This particular material is not that hard to get in Warframe. You can obtain circuits by killing enemies, scooping out lockers, and searching containers. The most convenient way is to buy these circuits from the market. You can get 1500 circuits in exchange for 30 platinum.

If you are looking for a less expensive way, then you can head over to the planet known as Ceres. Activate the Dark Sector survival mission and kill as many enemies as you can. The drop rate is increased by 35 percent so that is a bonus. Having said that, for the Archwing Launcher Segment gear item, you only need 600 circuits. So, we recommend you just buy circuits from one of the traders in the market.
