Warframe if You Fail a Mastery Test Do You Continue to Get Mastery Points

Last Updated on October 18, 2022

Warframe Mastery Rank is a relative number that helps track the progress a player has made in the game. The mastery points are gained by levelling up weapons, frames, companions, or Archwings.

You can view your mastery rank by pressing the ESC button and hovering over your avatar, the rank will show up right below your username.

Update: Mastery Rank 29 details have been added in the rank section. Find more information below.

Certain weapons or Frames have set mastery requirement, you can't use/craft it before you reach the required rank. But, there's a workaroud to it, if you buy the Prime Access or buy the weapon/frame from the market, the rank requirement can be bypassed. Broken-War can't be crafted before you reach MR3, but any of the players who finishes The Second Dream quest will be given a crafted Broken-War regardless of their MR.

How To Rank Up Fast in Warframe

The secret to leveling up fast in warframe is getting everything and leveling it up. If you are only looking to gain mastery rank as fast as possible, I would recommend you to purchase a one-week affinity booster for 2x affinity.

Below are the mastery points that you can gain in Warframe by leveling:

• Weapons, Sentinel weapons, and Archwing weapons will give you 100 MR points for each rank. Maxed at 30 for a total of 3000 MR points.
• Victory in each junction will give you 1000 mastery points.
• Warframe, Companions, and Archwings give 200 mastery points for each rank for a maximum of 6000 MR points when rank 30 is obtained. Variants of each warframe, companion or archwing is counted as different equipment.

You can continue leveling up your weapons even if you fail your mastery tests. You don't lose excess mastery points if you don't complete the test once the MR bar fills up.

Perks of Ranking up or Higher Mastery

• Increases the daily trading limit, you get 1 more trading limit than your MR. For example, if you are MR3, you will get 4 trades per day.
• Increase in the starting mod capacity of the frames/weapons/companions/archwings.
• You can use higher MR requirement rivens and weapons, max MR requirement for frames is 10.
• Increased daily extractor limit.
• Increase collected fissures, 50 per rank.
• Increased Syndicate standing, 1000 per rank.

Players must keep in mind that equipment will only give you mastery once it reaches level 30, applying forma on it won't give you mastery again. Even if you purchase or recraft it.

Mastery Rank Tests

If you are looking to rank up, you have to complete tests. Higher ranks mean tests with higher difficulty, each and every progressive rank has a difficult test comparing to the previous one. The Mastery Tests aims at making the players understand the game mechanics.

If you fail a test once, you would have to wait for the exact 24 hours to get a second attempt. You can retry unlimited times to complete a test, it is always recommended that you visit Cephalon Simaris to practice the test before you waste another try (24 hours RIP Kappa).
