Warframe Baro Ki'teer location, arrival time, and items this week (May 3 to 5, 2024)

Warframe sets an industry-wide example when it comes to building a fair free-to-play live service game model. Players can obtain all items in the game, save for Excalibur Prime. The tradeoff for this availability is the fact that not all the items are readily available. The biggest example of this is Primed Mods. Unlike Prime Warframe and Weapon components, the Primed Mods can only be obtained from Baro Ki'Teer, the Void Trader.

Admittedly, you can always acquire these items from other players via trade chat. For those who want to play solo or prefer acquiring items from their direct drop sources, almost all of Baro Ki'Teer's merchandise is uniquely accessible only from his inventory.

All items on Baro Ki'Teer can be bought for a combination of Credits and Ducats. Credits can be farmed from many sources in the game, as it is the most common form of currency.

Ducats, on the other hand, can only be obtained from the Void Trader's Ducat Kiosks located in any Relay. Unlike Baro Ki'Teer's stock, the Ducats can be acquired any time of the week, as the kiosks are always operational.

Ducats can be purchased in exchange for Primed Parts for weapons and frames, obtained by cracking Void Relics from the four eras. The Ducat price for a Primed part is determined only by its rarity in the Relic.

For this week's Baro-exclusive non-cosmetic items, the order of priority for an average player should be:

  • Sands of Inaros Blueprint (for those who haven't done the quest yet)
  • Primed Quickdraw
  • Primed Pistol Gambit
  • Mark of The Beast
  • Viper Wraith (MR Fodder)
  • Opticor Vandal (Obtainable from elsewhere)

Prisma Lotus Bloom Sigil is the latest addition to the Baro inventory in the Warframe, as this week marks its debut appearance.

This week's offerings brings a few stocks back from Baro's last rotation - namely, Mark of the Beast and Viper Wraith make their return. Mark of The Beast can have very niche uses if you are running a pistol-glaive combo.

Primed Pistol Gambit is the elite form of regular Pistol Gambit - but sadly, you can actually get way more mileage with the Critical Delay mod, which is cheaper to rank up and fit into a build. Primed Quickdraw, on the other hand, is a big upgrade over the regular reload speed mod, but its use case is more limited.

What does the Peculiar Audience mod do in Warframe?

Peculiar Audience is one of the few pure flavor mods that sometimes appears on the Baro Ki'teer inventory. This makes it so that your kills will occasionally trigger the Skittergirl voiceline. Skittergirl is a ghost encounter you may occasionally find while doing a bounty in the Zariman Ten-Zero.

As expected of a flavor mod, using Peculiar Audience provides no tactical advantage whatsoever.


Baro weapons this week

This week's Baro inventory includes the weapons Viper Wraith and Opticor Vandal.

We will not sugarcoat it - Viper Wraith feels like an off-meta pea-shooter in 2024, and you will not get much use out of it even with a good Riven.

Opticor Vandal, on the other hand, is a good laser weapon that can be viable on Steel Path. Compared to the regular Opticor, it has much higher fire rate but lower damage, making it less of a one-shot wonder and more of a semi-auto weapon better suited to dealing with multiple enemies.

However, Opticor Vandal can also be obtained from getting the maximum score during a Thermia Fracture event. That version of Opticor Vandal comes with a pre-installed Orokin Catalyst, but you cannot trade it with other players.
