Quickening: Drop sources, locations, and probabilities

Tips

There are many ways to get Quickening in Warframe, but my recommendation for optimal efficiency would be to try one of these missions (in this order):

• Phobos/Memphis : It's a Defection mission (level 15-25). The item is dropped on rotation C (15.00%).
• Venus/Malva : It's a Survival mission (level 8-18). The item is dropped on rotation C (11.28%).
• Mars/Wahiba : It's a Survival mission (level 10-20). The item is dropped on rotation C (11.28%).
• Phobos/Zeugma : It's a Survival mission (level 15-25). The item is dropped on rotation C (11.28%).
• Ceres/Gabii : It's a Survival mission (level 15-25). The item is dropped on rotation C (11.28%).

These recommendations are based on the usual missions lengths, and the probability of getting the resource dropped.

Missions with a Chance to Get Quickening as a Reward

Warframe Rotations Explained

• Defense: One reward every 5 waves, following this pattern: AABC.
  So, rotation A reward at 5 and 10 waves, B after 15 waves and C for 20 waves.
  Then it starts all over again.
• Survival: One reward every 5 minutes, following this pattern: AABC.
  Rotation A at 5 and 10 minutes, B at 15 minutes, C at 20 minutes, etc. Then it starts all over again (25min is rotation A).
