The Dagath Warframe usually requires you to not only join a Clan and buy her blueprints, but also a special mission in Ceres, where you must buy Abyssal Beacons from Syndicates to do them. With the recent Alerts, you can finally assemble your first Dagath as these provide the completed components and the main blueprint for free. If you already have her, you can also subsume Dagath’s Wyrd Scythes and expand your Helminth collection.
This guide will show you where to get Dagath for free, as well as a powerful loadout and build to accompany her.

Dagath Melee Build
To start, subsume Wyrd Scythes with Kullervo’s Wrathful Advance. Using this subsume, this build will significantly boost Dagath’s critical damage to Steel Path levels, as this synergizes with her Grave Spirit ability. By combining Wrathful Advance and Grave Spirit, her melee crit chance is increased by 100% and her crit damage bonus by 50%, doubling if her weapons hit Doomed enemies.
💡Tip: The best ability combo for most enemies is: Doom>Wrathful Advance>Grave Spirit.
📌Note: This build also covers survivability since Spectral Spirit reduces the cooldown of Grave Spirit whenever you get kills outside her invulnerability state.
Warframe Mods
For her Warframe mods, use the following:
- Corrosive Projection
- Primed Sure Footed
- Prime Rage
- Equilibrium
- Primed Continuity
- Spectral Spirit
- Narrow Minded
- Umbral Intensify
- Primed Flow
- Catalyzing Shields
📌Note: For Dagath’s Arcanes, Molt Augmented increases your Ability Strength for every kill, and Arcane Strike adds extra melee Attack Speed.
Nami Solo Build
The Incarnon form of this weapon gives it a longer range and more Follow Through, allowing you to AoE entire groups of enemies with your melee attacks. For mods, slot in the following for the Nami Solo:
- Cyclone Kraken
- Disciple’s Merit
- Galvanized Steel
- Galvanized Elementalist
- Weeping Wounds
- Primed Fury
- Voltaic Strike
- Shocking Touch
- Primed Reach
- Primed Pressure Point
- Incarnon Evolutions
- Brigand’s Frenzy
- Lone Blade
- Absolute Dominion
📌Note: As for the Arcane, use Melee Influence for even more AoE damage, as the Electric procs will chain to other enemies nearby.
