Mine of Karishh Solo – Grendel Mission (Systems)

• Chassis: Icefields of Riddah – 15 Wave Defense
• > Systems: Mine of Karishh – 800 Cryotic Excavation
• Neuroptics: Archaeo-Freighter – 20 Minute Survival

Unlocking the Mission

The Mine of Karishh on Europa is one of the 3 Grendel missions and awards you the Grendel Systems blueprint. To unlock the Mine of Karishh mission, you will need to purchase a Grendel Systems Locator from the Arbitration Honor vendor in the Arbiters of Hexis room on any relay. This item will cost 25 Vitus Essence (obtainable through Arbitrations), but is not consumed until you complete the mission; you will be able to attempt the mission as many times as you would like until you get the reward for winning.

The Build

Warframe – Limbo

This solo strategy relies on avoiding all combat and waiting for the excavators. With Limbo’s free access to the Rift Plane using dodge, the restrictions on mods and energy do not matter. You also will not need any augments for this strategy to work. Therefore, a no-mod Limbo is all you need.

The Strategy – Wait in the Rift

As soon as you zone into the mission, dodge with Limbo to enter the rift. This will make you immune to all damage from enemies. Despite this immunity, enemies will still try to attack you, allowing you to distract them.

When an excavator comes up, run to the waypoint to spawn it while still in the rift. Let 20 seconds pass until the excavator runs out of power, distracting enemies as necessary to ensure it lives.

Let the Excavators Die

Once the excavator has run out of power, let it die. It will need to be gone for another excavator to spawn in that location. There is no limit on the number of excavators that will spawn, so don’t worry about running out. If no new excavators are spawning, encourage the enemies to destroy the existing ones.

Each excavator will give you 20 Cryotic with this strategy. This means that you will need 40 excavators to reach the 800 Cryotic you need. This will take a while, but is very safe and mostly AFK.

Notable Enemies

Nullifier bubbles can pull you out of the rift. They can be mostly avoided, but sometimes they will be in tight corridors, making them unavoidable. If you have to pass through a nullifier bubble, bullet jump through, and dodge again as soon as you get past it.
