All Acolyte mods in Warframe, and what they do

The Acolytes are an extremely rare event that occurs in Warframe once a year. The Acolytes move around the Star Chart, and can drop powerful mods that many Tenno are desperate to have. To make sure you don’t waste your time, this guide will run through each Acolyte, the mods they drop, and what each mod does. The mods are a mix of Pistol, Rifle, Assault Rifle, Shotgun, and Melee mods, and can only be used with the relevant weapon type indicated on the mod.

If you need help tracking down the Acolyte, be sure to read our full event guide.
