Ash is an assassin-themed Warframe who utilizes both stealth and lethal damage as a way of dealing with his enemies. He can use his Shuriken ability to deal damage to enemies and cover his trace with his Smokescreen ability.
His agility allows him to teleport to enemies and make them vulnerable to finisher attacks. Utilizing his powers, Ash can send out copies of himself to attack marked enemies, eliminating several foes in a short amount of time.
How to Get Ash?
You can obtain the parts for Ash as a drop from Grineer Manics, stealth enemies who have similar traits to Ash that try to assassinate you during certain Grineer missions. A random port will be dropped by a small chance whenever a Manic is killed:
- Ash Neuroptics
- Ash Chassis
- Ash Systems
The Ash blueprint may be purchased from the orbiter for 35,000 Credits.
Ash is purchasable for 375 Platinum from the ingame market aboard your orbiter.

Farming Grineer Manics
To obtain the blueprints for Ash Parts, you will need to do Grineer missions which have Grineer Manics spawn in. Manics are stealthy enemies and known to be assailants during most missions who appear at special points during missions to take out the Tenno. Manics spawn during Disruption missions where they will attempt to attack you while you rescue survivors.
The Titania mission on Uranus is a great way to farm Manics since several of them spawn in the mission while you fight Tyl Regor. Titania is an easy to defeat boss mission and will provide you with a better chance to obtain parts for Ash, especially when you have an additional drop chance provided by boosters or from abilities such as Nekros’ Desecrate ability.

Tips
- Manics can be quite deadly when not noticed and can kill newer players easily if they can perform finishers on them.
- You will know a Manic is on its way to you when you hear maniacal laughter and when the Lotus gives you a warning.
- Be careful when fighting Manics as they can turn invisible and may attempt to attack you from behind or another angle.
- While they are fast and deadly, Grineer Manics are still lightly armored and can be easily killed with most weapons in a single or a few hits.
Final Thoughts
Ash makes a good stealth Warframe and can deal a lot of damage to enemies with the different builds possible through the use of his abilities. Manics make it worth the effort to farm since you will be able to utilize almost the same technology they have, but more with the Ash Warframe. It may not be as easy to find Manics due to their rarity on other missions but doing Disruptions or facing Tyl Regor can change this
