“Researching the Detonite traces within could advance our weapon technology”
Detonite Ampule
If you are wondering where to get Detonite Injector fast, you are either going to end up doing invasions or farming Detonite Ampule, which is used to make Detonite Injector.
Detonite Ampule are required for research on most of the Grineer technology and a lot is required in order to craft Detonite Ampule which is used to craft Grineer equipment.
While Detonite Ampule does not drop in large amounts, they can easily be farmed in the right places, but it is important to have a farming Warframe with you as well as a squad if you really want to get a lot.
Detonite Ampule solo farming is still doable but the rate at which you obtain the resource may be quite limited.
Where to farm Detonite Ampule?
Detonite Ampule can be found on the planets that are under the control of the Grineer. However, we have a better chance to obtain it on Ceres due to the high Dark Sector bonus.
Detonite Ampule will drop when farming on Grineer controlled planets in small amounts, but this does not necessarily mean only Grineer drop them, infested will too as long as it is a Grineer controlled planet.
Survival missions are suggested (endless missions are good for farming) and choosing a planet that has not only one Detonite Ampule but other resources as well to get the most from farming.
Several planets have Detonite Ampule drops in them such as Earth, Mercury, Saturn, Uranus, Sedna and Ceres but amongst these planets, a lot of luck has been found with Ceres, Saturn and Uranus.

Gabii (Ceres)
Gabii is the best place to farm Detonite Ampule due to it being a Dark Sector mission that offers a 35% increase in resource drop chance and the easiness of the mission.
Infested will be crawling all over the map, meaning you will have a lot of enemies to kill, increasing the chances of Detonite Ampule drops.
Aside from Detonite Ampule, players will be able to farm a good amount of Circuits which they will need later and also have a good chance of getting some Orokin Cells.
Different farming Warframes may be put to use since the enemies are weak and there are a lot of areas which can be camped in, while players may also roam and open containers.
Seimeni (Ceres)
A more controlled mission for farming Detonite Ampule is Seimeni, a Dark Sector defense which also offers the same 35% increase in resource drop chance.
This will allow players who do not want to be swarmed to farm calmly and give the opportunity to get defense rewards per rotation that may not be available in Gabii.
The map is quite large, and players may either stick with the defense target or position themselves to take full control of the map and kill enemies fast.
A Hydroid would be a good choice since enemies will be heading to the position of the defense target, making it easy to sit back and let the loot flow.

Piscinas (Saturn)
An alternative to Gabii and Seimenii would be Piscinas, another Dark Sector survival but with a lower resource drop chance increase at 25% which is still good.
Players that are after Plastids and Nano Spores will find that farming for Detonite Ampule on Piscinas will be more rewarding as they can farm a different resource group.
There are certain spots in the map, especially in a large room with platforms and stairs which allows players to farm solo since staying in the center will cause enemies to spawn from multiple points.
Players can find spots in Piscinas that allow squads to farm an insane amount of resources, which also works for Detonite Ample.
Tips
- Detonite Ampule is not a common resource and it is suggested that you bring Warframes that can increase loot drops like Nekros or Hydroid.
- Farming for a resource like Detonite Ampule is best done in groups in order to increase the number of enemies that spawn.
- It is possible to buy Detonite Injector in the market for 10 Platinum but seeing as you can easily farm Detonite Ampule and craft it, this would be considered as a waste.
Verdict
If you wonder how to farm Detonite Ampule, you can mainly check for Grineer planets or look at the resources in the star chart.
Clans usually use Detonite Ampule for crafting Detonite Injector or for researching equipment in the dojo to craft the equipment later.
Detonite Ampule has a drop rate like Mutagen Mass and Fieldron Sample, making it quite rare but still farmable with the right Warframes in the right missions.
