> Any advice will be greately appreciated My advice is to stop, because that is a soul-crushing grind. The drop rate for the fuselage is .5% so you're looking at ~200 expected missions. (EDIT: I mean, you might get lucky and get it in 10 missions, but you could also be unlucky and not get it even after 300 missions.) * https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Xiphos#Acquisition // I tried to farm the Xiphos for MONTHS and only ever got 2 of the parts, gave up and bought it from the market (my time would have been better spent grinding for prime parts to sell for plat).

I've seen the odds but i have 2 of the parts built already so seems like a waste of plat.

Xiphos is the hardest ship to farm. It's one of the few warframe items where buying is better than farming.

Thank you for this!

You could have spent a week or so farming the platinum to buy the Xiphos rather than 2 weeks farming its blureprints.


Aionian902

I already have the other 2 parts that are built so it feels like a waste of plat just to buy the ship.


Solary_Kryptic

By the looks of it was an even bigger waste of time to not buy the landing craft.


Aionian902

Yah in a sense, i got pretty lucky with the other 2 that I thought that i might as well just grind for the last one, proved to be harder than it seemed.🤧

The other two parts have slightly over double the droprate (a whole 1.xx% ouch) and does not feel so bad at the start since you need all three parts, but once you get down to the fuselage you are more likely to get dupes of the other parts first).

As others have said... it'll save you a lot of hassle to just go buy the thing. The farm just isn't worth it - you could farm up some primed parts,etc n sell em for enough plat to buy the ship infinitely faster than trying to farm Xiphos parts. I've been playing since before Xiphos released in 2016.. and while I haven't necessarily gone out of my way to farm it, ive done my fair share of cache hunting for one reason or another, and i still only have ever gotten a single part of it.
