Styanax Prime Relic Farming in Warframe (June 2026)

Every Relic that drops a Styanax Prime part, the fastest farms, and how to crack them open.

Every Relic that drops a Styanax Prime part, the fastest farms, and how to crack them open.

Styanax Prime landed in Warframe on June 17, 2026, and you can build the whole frame for free by farming four Void Relics. Each Relic holds one of his four parts, so the job is simple once you know which Relic maps to which component and where to grind it.

Quick answer: Farm Lith S18 (Neuroptics), Meso Y2 (Chassis), Neo Y1 (Systems), and Axi A21 (Blueprint). Run Hepit in the Void for Lith, Io on Jupiter for Meso, Xini on Eris for Neo, and Apollo on Lua for Axi, then crack each Relic at a matching Void Fissure.

Styanax Prime Relics and parts

Each part has a fixed Relic and a fixed rarity. Only the Neuroptics is a Rare drop, which keeps the overall farm on the lighter side. The Blueprint sits at Common, so the most common reward comes from the Relic that is hardest to stock up on.

Styanax Prime should stay in the active Relic rotation until around Q2 2028 before he enters the Vault, so there is no rush window on the in-game farm.


Best Styanax Prime Relic farms

The fastest routes lean on short, repeatable missions. Capture runs in the Void clear in under a minute with a fast frame, and Defense or Interception nodes give reliable rotation rewards. Here are the primary spots and a few backups.

RelicBest spotBackup spots
Lith S18Hepit, Void (Capture)None
Meso Y2Io, Jupiter (Defense)Ukko, Void (Capture); Kappa, Sedna (Disruption)
Neo Y1Xini, Eris (Interception)Ukko, Void (Capture); Kappa, Sedna (Disruption)
Axi A21Apollo, Lua (Disruption)Berehynia, Sedna (Interception); Kappa, Sedna (Disruption)

Lith S18 (Neuroptics)

Hepit in the Void is the strongest farm by a wide margin. It is a quick Capture against level 10 enemies, and every run guarantees either a Lith Relic or Aya. Each clear carries a 13.3 percent chance at the Lith S18 specifically, so bring a fast frame like Gauss, Volt, Titania, or Wukong and reset the mission rapidly.

Meso Y2 (Chassis)

Io on Jupiter is the go-to Defense. Rotation A guarantees a Meso Relic, and you can leave after two waves to chase a 12.5 percent chance at the Meso Y2 each cycle. If you prefer speed, Ukko in the Void can drop Meso or Neo from a single Capture run.

Neo Y1 (Systems)

Xini on Eris is an Interception with a 10 percent chance at the Neo Y1 and usually enough players around to fill a squad. Ukko in the Void doubles up here too, since the same Capture can return either Neo or Meso. The per-run odds at each Relic are roughly half of the dedicated nodes, but the mission ends so quickly that the trade-off works out.

Axi A21 (Blueprint)

Apollo on Lua is the best Axi farm. You only earn Axi Relics on rotations B and C, so defend all four conduits in the first round to reach those rotations. Berehynia on Sedna (Interception) is a solid alternative.

Note: If you would rather not switch nodes, Kappa on Sedna (Disruption) cycles three eras in one place. Rotation A gives Meso, Rotation B gives Neo, and Rotation C gives Axi.


Buy Relic Packs with Steel Essence or Syndicate standing

If grinding nodes is not appealing, all four Styanax Prime Relics can appear inside Relic Packs. The easiest source is Teshin at any relay, who sells packs for Steel Essence, with a cap of 25 purchases. If you have Syndicate standing banked, all six legacy syndicates also stock Relic Packs at 20,000 standing each. Good luck still matters, since the pack contents are random.


How to open Styanax Prime Relics

Open the Navigation screen and pick a Void Fissure mission that matches the era of the Relic you want to crack, then equip that Relic before launching.
During the mission, kill the golden Corrupted enemies and collect ten Reactant. The Relic cracks open once you hit ten, and you choose a reward at the end.
To raise your odds at a specific part, refine the Relic before the run. Spend Void Traces earned in Fissures to upgrade it to Exceptional, Flawless, or Radiant.

Running a full squad on the same Relic improves your chances even more. At the reward screen you can pick from any teammate’s Relic without affecting their own choice, so a four-person group focused on Lith S18, for example, gives everyone four shots at the Rare Neuroptics. Just confirm everyone is using the same Relic at the same refinement tier.

Once you have all four parts plus the resources, build each component and the main blueprint in the Foundry, and Styanax Prime is yours without touching Prime Access. The Neuroptics from Lith S18 will be the part you chase longest, so keep Hepit on rotation and bank Void Traces to push your Relics to Radiant for the best shot at it.
