Learn about the Vector Shield and other scannable objects in Warframe. Discover how to find and interact with various items in the game using your Codex Scanner.

Hey there, Tenno! So you're curious about those little doodads you can scan in Warframe, huh? This section is all about those miscellaneous bits and bobs you might find lying around, things that can be scanned with your trusty Codex Scanner or even have their own health pools. Think of them as the environment's little secrets!

We're talking about all sorts of things here, from basic Storage Containers and Resource Caches that might hold some goodies, to more unique items like the Kuva Siphon, which is super important for getting Kuva. You'll also find things like Kuria, which are little lore collectibles, and even decorative items like the Domestik Drone. Don't forget about environmental hazards or interactables like Infested Hives or Explosive Barrels – sometimes they're more than just scenery!

The main thing to remember is that if it's a static or miscellaneous thing in the game world that isn't a Warframe, weapon, or enemy, chances are it falls under the 'Object' category. You can scan these with your Codex Scanner to fill out your Codex, and some might even have specific interactions or purposes in missions. Keep an eye out for them; you never know what you might learn or find!
