Mastery, Primes and Founders

The words in a Warframe listing, explained, with a note on whether each can be traded or bought again. What cannot be traded (Founders items, Archon Shards, Catalysts, most Ephemeras) only ever comes with an account. Community

Progress · Can still be earned

Mastery Rank and Legendary ranks

The account level, raised by levelling Warframes, weapons and other gear. Ranks above MR30 are Legendary Ranks; the wiki gives LR6 as the current cap without Founders items. MR also limits trading: an account can make as many trades a day as its MR (Founders get two more).

Prime Warframes, the Vault and Resurgence

When a Prime is vaulted, the Void Relics that drop its parts stop dropping; relics already owned still work and can be traded. The Prime Vault closed for good on 14 September 2022, and retired Primes now return through Prime Resurgence: Varzia’s stock rotates every 28 days, for Aya earned in play or Regal Aya bought with money.

Riven mods

Mods · Tradeable

Arcanes

Tradeable enhancements that trigger on conditions. A Rank 5 (maxed) Arcane takes 21 copies, which is why “R5 Arcanes” in a listing means a lot of farming or Platinum.

Steam and Epic binding

Steam account binding (Update 37, October 2024) is optional, needs 2FA, and cannot be undone; Epic binding followed in May 2025. An account created through Steam can be bound to it automatically. Our reading: “Steam unlinked” in a listing means the account was never bound, so the buyer can bind their own.

Cross save and linking

Linking accounts across platforms is permanent: after linking only the Primary Account’s progress and inventory are used. Real-money purchases bought on Steam stay on PC. The one-time merge ended on 17 January 2025; linking itself remains available.
