Warframe: Heart Noctrul (How To Get, Location & Uses)

Heart Noctrul is a refined gem in Warframe that is crafted from raw Noctrul and mainly used for Fortuna and Orb Vallis-related blueprints.

Since it is not obtained directly from mining veins, you must refine Noctrul using a reusable blueprint purchased from Smokefinger.

If you are progressing through Solaris United content or crafting Fortuna gear, Heart Noctrul becomes a resource you will eventually need in batches.

Where To Get Heart Noctrul?

Heart Noctrul is crafted from Noctrul, which is mined from red mineral veins found across Orb Vallis in Fortuna on Venus.

Once you have gathered enough raw Noctrul, you must purchase the reusable Heart Noctrul blueprint from Smokefinger in Fortuna.

The blueprint costs 1,000 Solaris United Standing and requires you to reach at least Neutral rank with Solaris United before it becomes available.

After purchasing the blueprint, you can craft Heart Noctrul by accessing the Foundry aboard the Orbiter once you have returned to it.

Each build consumes 10 Noctrul and produces 10 Heart Noctrul with a crafting time of one minute, making it a 1:1 ratio when crafting.

Because of the short build time and low material cost, Heart Noctrul is easy to produce as long as you have taken the time to mine enough Noctrul.

Heart Noctrul is required for crafting various Fortuna and Orb Vallis weapons, components, and modular equipment tied to Solaris United progression.

The following are items that require Heart Noctrul, as well as how much is required:

Heart Noctrul is easy to obtain once you begin mining on Orb Vallis and unlock access to Smokefinger’s gem blueprints.

Since each craft yields ten units and only takes one minute, refining Noctrul regularly prevents material shortages later.

If you are actively building Fortuna weapons or modular gear, keeping Heart Noctrul stocked will save you extra mining runs.
