Warframe: How to Get Valkyr/Valkyr Prime (2026) Guide

Valkyr is a versatile Warframe born of rage, charging into battle as a berserker who shreds enemies to pieces with her deadly claws and fury.

She combines deadly melee attacks, high armor, and life-stealing abilities to stay alive while dealing massive damage up close to her targets.

With abilities that can boost her survivability, mobility, and melee prowess, Valkyr dominates both solo missions and team fights.

How To Get Valkyr?

You can purchase Valkyr’s Main Blueprint for 35,000 Credits from the Market, while her Component Blueprints come as rewards from Themisto (Alad V Assassination Mission) located on Jupiter.

The Themisto mission can be completed in minutes, allowing you to easily farm the Component Blueprints required for Valkyr, but multiple attempts may be needed.

Additionally, once you have unlocked The Circuit (Available after The Duviri Paradox quest), you may obtain all of the blueprints by completing her rotation after selecting it for the week.

Valkyr Abilities

Passive Ability

Valkyr has a rage meter that builds up when she hits or kills enemies using melee weapons, which increases her Melee Damage up to a limit of 300%

Upon being damaged to the point where she is about to be killed while she has more than 150% Rage, this will be consumed and prevent her from dying, and she is granted 5 seconds of invulnerability.

This makes it easy for Valkyr to build up additional melee damage while she engages her enemies and continues to shred them with any equipped melee weapon.

1) Rip Line

Valkyr releases a hook that pulls her to a surface or an enemy, allowing her to quickly move across long distances to close in on her targets.

If Rip Line hits an enemy, nearby enemies will be pulled to the target when Valkyr reaches them, while she unleashes a melee attack to hit them.

Ripline (Max Rank)

Augment Mods: Swing Line removes the Energy cost of Rip Line while Valkyr is airborne, and she also gains 20% Parkour Velocity. Obtained from New Loka/The Perrin Sequence.

2) Warcry

After Valkyr lets off a fearsome warcry, that increases the Attack Speed and Armor of her and any allies that are within Affinity Range.

This provides you and your team with faster melee attacks along with increased armor for better survivability in a fight.

Warcry (Max Rank)

Augment Mods: Eternal War allows Valkyr to extend the duration of Warcry by 2 seconds for each enemy that is killed with a melee attack. Obtained from New Loka/The Perrin Sequence.

3) Paralysis

Valkyr releases a blast in the area around her, which causes enemies to become slowed and makes them more vulnerable to melee attacks.

This works well with Valkyr when she is close to enemies and makes it easier to deal more damage to them when using melee weapons or when Hysteria is active.

Paralysis (Max Rank)

Augment Mods: Prolonged Paralysis causes enemies that are affected by the ability to be pulled to Valkyr with an increased stun duration of 5 seconds. Obtained from New Loka/The Perrin Sequence.

4) Hysteria

Valkyr goes into a raging berserker state where she utilizes her claws (Valkyr Talons) to shred her enemies into pieces. (Attacks have Life Steal)

During the duration of the ability, Valkyr will be immune to Status Effects, and her Armor Bonus will be multiplied.

Hysteria (Max Rank)

Augment Mods: 

• Hysterical Assault causes Valkyr to leap towards enemies when performing her attacks while also providing her with increased Parkour Velocity and Sprint Speed. Obtained from New Loka/The Perrin Sequence.
• Enraged increases Damage and Critical Chance by 350% while causing Hysteria to last for 15 Seconds and have a cooldown. Obtained from New Loka/The Perrin Sequence.
• Hysterical Fixation causes each kill during the duration of Hysteria to restore 20% of your Max Shields. Obtained from Conclave.
