The Iceblade of Narin update added a hidden puzzle involving Neote, Narin’s legendary sword found frozen within Narin’s Crest at Yuvan Peak.
Attempting to pull Neote without meeting its hidden conditions can result in Prophecy Unfulfilled, requiring several specific items and equipment conditions before the puzzle can be completed.
Solving the puzzle rewards the Neote Rapier Skin and The Legend of the Void Honoria, while Neote also has a separate interaction tied to Mastery blessings.
How to Solve the Neote Puzzle?
The Neote puzzle requires players to reach Legendary Rank 1, use Narin, collect the Tethyan Parchment Tatters, and prepare several specific pieces of equipment.
Once every requirement has been completed, return to Narin’s Crest at Yuvan Peak as Narin and interact with Neote to fulfill the prophecy.
Reach Legendary Rank 1
Players need to reach at least Legendary Rank 1 before they can complete the Neote puzzle and receive its cosmetic rewards.
Reaching Mastery Rank 30 allows Neote to be used for a True Master’s Font blessing, but this separate interaction does not reward the Neote Rapier Skin.
Get and Equip the On Wings of Ice Honoria
The On Wings of Ice Honoria can be purchased from Cephalon Melica for 500 Entropic Kuva through her Classroom Supplies.
Cephalon Melica can be found at Yuvan Peak or accessed aboard the Chrysalith, allowing the Honoria to be purchased once enough Entropic Kuva has been collected.
After purchasing it, open Options > Communication > Profile > Honoria and select On Wings of Ice to make it the active Honoria on your profile before returning to Neote.
Use Narin
Narin needs to be the active Warframe when attempting to fulfill the prophecy and obtain the rewards from the Neote puzzle.
Make sure all of the remaining requirements are prepared before entering Yuvan Peak as Narin and returning to Narin’s Crest.
Collect the Tethyan Parchment Tatters
The Tethyan Parchment Tatters can be found aboard the Chrysalith near the elevator used to enter and leave Zariman missions.
After coming out of the elevator, look to the right for an ivy-covered opening that leads into a hidden room, where the parchment can be collected from the papers on the wall.
The parchment contains clues related to the puzzle and should be collected before returning to Neote.
Equip Five Azure Archon Shards
Install five Azure Archon Shards on Narin through the Archon Shard system so that all five of her available slots contain an Azure shard.
Regular Azure Archon Shards are sufficient for the puzzle, so players do not need to sacrifice five Tauforged Azure Archon Shards to meet this requirement.
Keep all five shards installed on Narin when returning to Yuvan Peak to attempt the puzzle.
Equip All Four Dragon Keys
Players need the Bleeding, Decaying, Extinguished, and Hobbled Dragon Keys equipped at the same time before attempting to pull Neote.
Place each of the four Dragon Keys into the Gear Wheel and leave them equipped when traveling to Yuvan Peak, with their normal penalties remaining active.
All four keys need to be equipped when Narin interacts with Neote at Narin’s Crest.
Pull Neote From Narin’s Crest
Once every requirement has been completed, travel to Yuvan Peak as Narin with five Azure Archon Shards installed and all four Dragon Keys equipped.
Make sure On Wings of Ice is active on your profile and that the Tethyan Parchment Tatters have already been collected before approaching Narin’s Crest.
Interact with Neote with all of these conditions fulfilled to complete the hidden puzzle and receive its cosmetic rewards.
How to Get the Neote Rapier Skin?
Completing the Neote puzzle rewards the Neote Rapier Skin, allowing players to use the appearance of Narin’s legendary sword on compatible Rapier weapons.
Neote is obtained as a cosmetic skin rather than a separate melee weapon, so it can be selected through the Appearance options of a compatible Rapier.
Players also receive The Legend of the Void Honoria for completing the puzzle, which is separate from the On Wings of Ice Honoria used as one of its requirements.
Neote Blessing
Neote also functions as an alternative True Master’s Font for players who have reached Mastery Rank 30, allowing a Mastery blessing to be selected from Yuvan Peak.
This interaction is separate from the hidden puzzle, which means an MR30 player may successfully interact with Neote for a blessing without receiving the Neote Rapier Skin.
Using Neote for a blessing also uses the normal True Master’s Font cooldown, so players attempting the puzzle should avoid using the blessing beforehand if they want to interact with Neote immediately.
Verdict
The Neote puzzle requires several unusual conditions, but most of the work comes down to preparing everything correctly before returning to Narin’s Crest.
Use Narin with five Azure Archon Shards, equip all four Dragon Keys, activate On Wings of Ice on your profile, collect the Tethyan Parchment Tatters, and reach Legendary Rank 1.
Completing the puzzle rewards the Neote Rapier Skin and The Legend of the Void Honoria, while Neote can separately be used for Mastery blessings at Yuvan Peak.
