Warfame Sidekick Guide - Everything You Need To Know

Acolytes in Warframe are followers of the Stalker. During infrequent events, they are available to fight in the game and can drop powerful mods that are highly sought after by gamers. Acolytes will appear in the game about once a year, appearing randomly on the Star Chart. They appear one at a time and must be found in-game by one player when this happens, then their location is shown on the star board for all other players.

Sidekicks have an overall health bar, which is slowly chipped as different groups of Tenno fight it. When the life bar reaches a certain level, it will move to a new node and must be found. When this main health bar is gone, the Acolyte is replaced by a new Acolyte.

Once a node is known, players can then load into the mission but will need to fully explore the map to find the sidekick. A room will be chosen at random as the sidekick's spawn point, and it will only appear when a player enters that room.

All Acolytes look like a Warframe, but with the very distinctive Stalker head. They will exit the mission if they take down all players at once, if a certain time elapses, or if they take enough damage. They will only drop a mod if they start taking too much damage.

There are six Acolytes, and they all drop different mods and rewards.

Acolytes can use certain abilities. Much like the Stalker, they can pull you from any terrain you try to stand on to escape them, and they can also instantly teleport to your location if you stray too far. For the Tenno experiment, sidekicks aren't particularly difficult to kill. Weapons like the Tiger and its variants should make this a quick job, allowing you to quickly farm the nodes they appear in.
