Where to Farm Namalon in Warframe

Namalon is found exclusively in the Cambion Drift, mainly when mining the yellow mineral veins scattered throughout the open world. While these can be found anywhere, you’ll have the best luck finding yellow mineral veins to the west of Albrecht’s Prospect during Fass and to the east of The Abscess during Vome. Additionally, you can find Namalon when opening the resource caches within Isolation Vaults, exclusively openable through the Isolation Vault bounties. I’d only suggest going this route though if you’re already needing to do these bounties.

How to Use Namalon

The single recipe for Namalon is to create Devolved Namalon, which can be created using 20x Namalon to create 20x Devolved Namalon. The recipe for this can be acquired from Otak in the Necralisk, provided you’re Rank 1 with the Entrati. Using the Devolved Namalon, you can craft the following items:

  • Bonewidow Weapon Pod – 80x Devolved Namalon
  • Chondricord Trophy – 30x Devolved Namalon
  • Cortege Receiver – 80x Devolved Namalon
  • Glutinox Trophy – 30x Devolved Namalon
  • Morgha Receiver – 80x Devolved Namalon
  • Pulmonars – 60x Devolved Namalon
  • Quassus – 60x Devolved Namalon
  • Helminth Archon Shard Segment – 10x Devolved Namalon

If you want to build all of the above items (but only once with each), then you’ll need 430 Devolved Namalon. This directly translates to 430 Namalon, or 440 technically due to the recipe for Devolved Namalon only working in groups of 20. Either way, as long as you only farm Namalon as needed, you should be fine.
