Once a year in Warframe, The Acolytes, an extremely rare event occurs. The event like all others move around the Star Chart, and can drop powerful mods that a lot of Tenno are desperate to have. To help not waste your time, this guide will run through each Acolyte, the mods they will drop, and what each mod will do.
