As you explore the Cambion Drift on Deimos, you will find a bunch of new stuff to do. One such item is Reactive Crystal in Warframe. These are tied to some unique tasks, and you will unlock some unique rewards and Standing for enabling them. The quest you’re going to find is actually a random spawn out in the wastes.
The goal of this quest is to find and repair some mysterious monoliths. The Monoliths you find are your goal. These giant pillars are something you need to activate these to achieve your goal. Go into Operator mode and shoot them with the Amp. This will enable them to start the repair process. Check out the image below to see the monoliths you’re looking for in an in-game example.
You will see the monoliths start to compile some kind of energy dome in the air. Each one will have a symbol on top of the pillar when it’s repaired. Each one also has its own effect. Standing by these shielded areas will confer various bonuses, such as protecting you from enemy fire. You could also cause enemies to attack each other inside the area-of-effect. There are even ones that appear to boost resource drops.
Basically, Reactive Crystal in Warframe is a passive boost for a short time that you can activate at any time.
The Crystals seem to be scattered all over. They can be found all over the map, including the underground areas. And yes, they can be triggered more than once, you just have to wait out a small cooldown. Once the effect ends, the pillar should go dark, wait for it to light up again before it can be activated.
These things are very useful when in a mission or bounty and you get swarmed by foes. Having a quick way to cause enemies to attack each other or make you immune from damage is super helpful. Each Reactive Crystal has a very short cooldown, so if you find one in a good spot, you can stay there for a while, then quickly reactivate it with your Amp when it stops working.
