Mirage is a captivating character in Warframe, dazzling her foes with brilliant lights and playful traps. Because of her distinctiveness, she has her own quest called “Hidden Messages,” which can be started as soon as you finish the Pluto missions.
This quest is quite mysterious, much like Mirage herself, so we’ve put together this guide to help you unravel its riddles and uncover the blueprints waiting at each stage. Completing this quest will grant you all the blueprints required to craft Mirage, so let’s explore the first riddle which revolves around ancient deities.
First Riddle
Three pieces, three stages, three riddles ahead –
to resurrect the one who plays with dreams.
Ancient deities once ruled from on high,
Can you name their summit where earth and sky align?
This riddle points to the three components needed to assemble Mirage. The mention of ancient gods and their peak where land meets the sky directs us to Mars, specifically the Olympus mission, linked to Greek mythology and Olympus Mons on the planet.
Your first task is to complete the Olympus mission on Mars, which is a high-level extermination mission featuring infested foes. Be prepared for enemies at approximately level 30, similar to those encountered on Pluto.
In this mission, you’ll need to defeat 65 enemies. Once you succeed, you’ll be rewarded with the Mirage Neuroptics Blueprint and the next riddle will be sent to your inbox.
Second Riddle
To forge the one you deem clever,
find the nymph whose song was a treasure.
She led him with melody and a radiant grin,
his wife surely thought it a distressing matter.
This riddle alludes to Calypso, a nymph from Greek mythology who captivated Odysseus. Your next destination is the mission Calypso on Saturn, a high-level survival assignment.
This will be the most challenging mission of the three.
In this mission, you have to survive for 15 minutes, facing a wave of poisonous enemies, also around level 30. Completing this task will provide you with the Mirage Systems Blueprint, along with the third and final riddle sent to your inbox.
Third Riddle
One last act stands before your reward.
An ancient sea creature, dare you take the plunge?
Seek the beast that once devoured sailors of lore.
Make a wrong move and you’ll find yourself sunk, nothing more.
The final riddle references Charybdis, a mythical sea monster known for creating whirlpools that sank ships. Your next task is the mission Charybdis on Sedna, which is a Hive Sabotage assignment and the simplest of the three.
You will encounter three hives, each containing five tumors. Your goal is to destroy all five tumors around the hive and then take down the hive itself to proceed. Enemies here can largely be ignored, so focus on completing the task.
Successfully finishing this mission will reward you with the Mirage Chassis Blueprint, completing the Hidden Messages quest.
