Understand Gladiator Resolve
Useful when…
- Increasing Warframe health
- Filling a Vazarin-polarity standard slot
Effect and fit
Resolve grants up to +40% Health at rank 5, with +7% at rank 0 and +27% at rank 3. It is a standard Warframe mod with Vazarin polarity and base drain 4, and can be ranked to 5.
Rank tradeoff
The listed examples cost 20 Endo and 966 Credits for rank 0 to 1, 80 Endo and 3,864 Credits for rank 2 to 3, and 320 Endo and 15,456 Credits for rank 4 to 5. Early ranks are cheaper; the final step costs much more for the increase from the rank 3 value to maximum.
Alternatives and restrictions
Adept Surge and Adrenaline Boost are Conclave mods, not direct general-purpose substitutes: the former is an Exilus mod with +10% Mobility and -25 Health, while the latter gives +50% Energy and -20% Health. Archon Intensify provides Ability Strength and a conditional strength bonus after abilities restore health. These options serve different purposes from Resolve's health increase.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Adds health only; it does not increase armor or ability strength.
- Higher ranks require increasingly more Endo and Credits.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Treating Conclave mods as equivalent general-use options.
- Expecting health investment to provide armor or ability bonuses.
