All new mods in Warframe Whispers in the Walls update: Tome mods, Tennokai, and more

Warframe's Whisper in the Walls is the prologue quest to kickstart the next cinematic story arc that will continue with Warframe 1999. For players less interested in the story beats, this update also brings a lot of fresh content, including two new enemy factions, tilesets, the Cavia syndicate, and a plethora of mods.

In many ways, the mods added in this update will shake up the meta for melee, primer weapons, and Warframes with high-damage fourth abilities. Detailed below, all these mods can be obtained by engaging the new game modes, enemies, and bosses introduced by Whispers in the Walls.

New Warframe Tome mods: What are they and where to get them?

One of the new weapons introduced to Warframe in this update is the Grimoire. This is the first of many planned Tome subclass of weapons with infinite ammo and direct interaction with the abilities of a Warframe.

This interaction is achieved through Warframe's Tome-exclusive mods. You can obtain all seven of them from the new Mirror Defense mission on the Munio node in Deimos, where Tome mods have a chance to drop on every C rotation.

Canticle and Invocation mods cannot be used together, and the former can be put on the Exilus slot.

Khra Canticle - Slain enemies have a 12% chance to drop a Universal orb.

Lohk Canticle - Killing enemies grants bonus fire rate for self and allies in affinity range.

Finishing the Whispers in the Walls quest and returning to your Orbiter grants you a Melee Upgrade Segment for the Arsenal.

This unlocks the Exilus slot on your melee weapons, where you can install Tennokai mods. This includes the basic Mentor's Legacy mod you receive as another quest reward.

Tennokai essentially gives you a quick-timed prompt, reacting to which lets you heavy attack without spending your melee combo counter. Find out more about the Tennokai and heavy attack system in this guide.
