Warframe: Temple Builds (2026) Guide

Temple is a Warframe that was added in the Techrot Encore Update and appears to have a guitar-playing rockstar theme that focuses on Heat Damage.

This Warframe excels at setting enemies on fire and making it easier to deal damage to groups of enemies with his different abilities.

When modding Temple, there are several ways to go and this all depends on what weapons you choose to focus on as well as which abilities you tend to use often.

Temple Builds

1) Balanced Build (Basic Build)

Our Basic Build for Temple allows you to utilize all your abilities more efficiently, which includes reduced Energy Costs and increased stats.

This becomes useful for those who are trying the Warframe out for the first time and can be a base build for you to modify until everything is smooth.

We have used Archon Intensify since Ripper’s Wail heals him and Archon Vitality because the majority of his abilities can cause Heat Status Effects.

Archon Vitality causes Status Damage from the Heat Status Effect (If caused by abilities) to be applied twice. (This will often happen with Pyrotechnics and Overdrive)

Archon Intensify on the other hand provides increased Ability Strength when using an ability that heals your Warframe. (This happens with Ripper’s Wail)

2) High Ability Strength Build (Ability Strength Build)

Our High Ability Strength Build boosts the Ability Strength of Temple up to 323% (This can be increased even further with other Mods) for improved damage and effectiveness.

This also increases the amount of pillars that are created with Pyrotechnics, allowing you to deal large amounts of damage with the ability.

Overdrive also gains a useful boost from the increased Ability Strength as the Critical Chance vulnerability is increased to 80% along with the extra damage of the wave.

Ripper’s Wail gains a higher amount of health per second and a higher Heat Damage bonus, making it easy to scale to 750% in no time.

Since Exalted Solo boosts the damage of Lizzie (Temple’s Guitar), this provides the damage it deals with an insane 4x multiplier.

3) Nuke Build (Efficiency Build)

Blasting your enemies with Temple’s abilities can be a fun thing to do, especially when you can deal a decent amount of damage to your targets.

This build has its Ability Efficiency boosted to 130%, which reduces the Energy Costs of all of Temple’s abilities for you to spam onto your enemies.

What makes things better is that the Backbeat Metronome reduces the Energy Costs even further when you cast your abilities at the right time.

Verdict

Temple has a lot of abilities that can often be cast and making sure you have enough Energy to spend is important, which is what makes Streamline and even Fleeting Expertise important Mods.

Since Temple can continuously attack enemies with Heat Damage, you can make use of the Heat Status Effect to deal damage over time and combine other Status Effects for even more damage.

Timing your abilities with Backbeat Metronome (Passive) is vital for gaining additional effects for certain abilities and this makes using Temple more efficient in a mission.
