Warframe Damage Types

Every damage type in the game, decoded from Digital Extremes’ own weapon data — with the weapons that actually deal each one.

How many damage types are there?

14 identifiable types: 3 physical and 11 elemental or special.

DE stores a weapon’s damage as an unlabelled 20-slot vector. We identified these slots by testing against weapons whose type is unambiguous — Ignis is Heat, Glaxion is Cold, Amprex is Electricity — and every example below is generated from that data.

What this page does not tell you

It does not give you the faction-effectiveness matrix — how much extra Corrosive does to Ferrite Armour, or Viral to Cloned Flesh. Those multipliers are not in any official source we hold; they are community-derived from in-game testing.

We could copy that table from a wiki and present it as ours. We would rather point you at what we can actually stand behind: which weapons deal what, straight from Digital Extremes’ data, updated whenever they rebalance.

Two slots in DE’s damage vector are in use by a handful of weapons but appear too rarely to identify with confidence. Those render as “Other” with the slot number rather than a guessed name.
