How to Beat Captain Vor (Mercury, Tolstoj)

Learn the best strategies and tips to defeat Captain Vor, the first major boss in Warframe, located on Mercury. Master this fight to progress in the game.

Stats / Weaknesses:

  • Weakness: Void Damage
  • Resistances: Toxin, Gas

Phases:

  1. Phase 1: Vor fights alone, using his flame weapon and teleportation. He will summon Grineer enemies periodically.
  2. Phase 2: After taking some damage, Vor will retreat and become invulnerable for a short time, healing himself. He will then reappear and summon more powerful Grineer allies.
  3. Phase 3: Vor will become more aggressive, using his abilities more frequently and summoning more allies.

Strategy:

  • Keep moving to avoid Vor's attacks, especially his flame weapon.
  • Use your Warframe abilities to deal damage and control the battlefield. Abilities that deal damage over time or can stun enemies are particularly effective.
  • Prioritize taking down the Grineer allies he summons, as they can overwhelm you.
  • When Vor retreats to heal, use the time to clear out any remaining allies or reposition yourself.
  • Exploit his weakness to Void damage if you have access to weapons or abilities that deal it.
  • Be aware of his teleportation ability and try to predict where he will reappear.
