Warframe’s Prime variants elevate weaponry to new heights of power and style, and the Cedo Prime shotgun stands out as a must-have for fans of high-status output and explosive alternate fire. Paired perfectly with Lavos Prime, this upgraded signature weapon demands specific Void Relics to craft. Farming these relics requires a blend of strategy, patience, and knowledge of the game’s economy. This guide dives deep into every avenue for obtaining Cedo Prime relics, from quick standing spends to intensive fissure grinds, ensuring you build it swiftly without wasting resources.

Understanding Void Relics and Prime Farming Basics

At the heart of Prime acquisition lies the Void Relic system. These special items, stored in your inventory console aboard the Orbiter, hold potential Prime blueprints, parts, or Forma. Relics come in five tiers—Lith, Meso, Neo, Axi, and Requiem—each corresponding to different eras of Prime content. Cedo Prime relics span multiple tiers, with rarer drops tucked into higher ones like Neo and Axi.

Each relic offers six possible rewards: three commons at the top, one uncommon on the bottom left, and one rare on the bottom right. Cracking a relic in a Void Fissure mission rolls one of these, with the chance for rares hinging on relic refinement. Use Void Traces—earned from successful fissure runs—to upgrade relics: Intact (base), Exceptional (fewer commons), Flawless (no commons), and Radiant (25% rare chance boost). For Cedo Prime’s rare parts, always aim for Radiant refinement in group play to maximize odds.

This table outlines the key relics for Cedo Prime, helping you prioritize farming efforts. Focus on rares first, as they appear in fewer places.

Fastest Ways to Stockpile Relic Packs

Don’t dive into fissures without a stockpile—relic packs are your shortcut. These bundles contain random intact relics, often weighted toward recent Prime releases like Cedo Prime.

  • Syndicate Offerings: Visit your Syndicates in the Orbiter, scroll to offerings, and buy relic packs for standing. Steel Meridian, Red Veil, and others offer them cheaply—up to 20-30 packs daily across factions.
  • Teshin in Relays: Head to any Relay’s Steel Path vendor (Teshin). Spend Steel Essence—earned from Steel Path—on packs at 375 essence each. Post-Lavos Prime release, these heavily feature the needed relics.
  • Entrati Family on Deimos: Fast-travel to Cavalero (Earth) or Son in Necralisk. Use standing to purchase packs; higher ranks unlock more. Combine with fishing or mining for extra standing.
  • Open-World Vendors: In Fortuna, speak to Smokefinger for Solaris United packs. On Cetus, Old Man Entrati offers Ostron variants. These are standing-efficient for bulk buys.

Pro Tip: Cycle through all syndicates and vendors daily. A single login can net 50+ relics, many primed for Cedo farming.

Prime Relic Drop Tables and Mission Hotspots

Beyond packs, farm intact relics from enemy drops and mission rewards. Each tier has optimal nodes:

  • Lith Relics: Mars (Olympus Survival) or Hepit (Capture). Quick 10-15 minute runs yield 4-6 relics.
  • Meso Relics: Jupiter (Io Defense) or Mars again for overlap. Expect 3-5 per rotation.
  • Neo Relics: Void (Mot Survival) or Sedna (Adaro Exterminate). High density in endless modes.
  • Axi Relics: Lua (Apollo Disruption) or Steel Path equivalents. Disruptions shine for Axi F3.

Steel Path variants double relic drops and offer exclusive packs, ideal for endgame players. Use public squads via Recruiting chat: “LF relic share Cedo Prime Axi/Neo.”

Cracking Relics: Void Fissure Strategies

Once stocked, select Fissure missions from Navigation (filter by relic tier). Prioritize Capture, Exterminate, or Rescue for speed—under 2 minutes each. Squad up for four relics per run; the host’s relic roll determines shared rares.

  1. Enter fissure, destroy Void containers for traces.
  2. Complete objective while fighting possessed enemies.
  3. At extraction, choose to refine or crack normally.
  4. In groups, share Radiants for 100% rare chance on one relic.

For Cedo Prime, run Neo and Axi fissures relentlessly. A good squad cracks 20+ relics hourly, netting multiple part chances.

Refinement Mastery and Trace Farming

Void Traces are the currency of success. Farm them via Bounties (Cetus/Fortuna), Sanctuary Onslaught, or fissure bonuses. Elite Sanctuary Onslaught (Sanctuary Relay) drops Radiant relics directly—perfect for Cedo Prime.

  • Intact: 6 traces
  • Exceptional: 15 traces
  • Flawless: 30 traces
  • Radiant: 100 traces

Refine rares to Radiant, uncommons to Exceptional. Share in clan Dojos via the Relic menu for communal cracking.

Synergy with Lavos Prime and Dual Zoren Prime

Cedo Prime shines with Lavos Prime, whose ammo mutation keeps you firing. Farm these together: Lavos relics mirror Cedo (Lith L5, Meso A8, Neo X1, Axi F3). Dual Zoren Prime daggers complete the set, dropping from similar pools. Stock up on all via the same methods for a full Prime overhaul.

Build Cedo Prime with:

  • Barrel: Meso A8 (2% uncommon)
  • Receiver: Neo X1 (4% uncommon)
  • Stock: Axi F3 (2% rare)
  • Blueprint: Lith L5 (common)

Trading and Market Alternatives

If farming fatigues you, Warframe.Market lists parts or pre-refined relics. Prime parts become tradeable post-dupe protection (24-7 days). Avoid buying intact relics with Platinum—trade for parts directly. Check warframe.market for prices; a full Cedo Prime set might cost 50-100p early post-release.
