All Intrinsics And How To Earn Them In Warframe
Intrinsics are a new layer to how you level up in Warframe and build your Tenno. Introduced in the Empyrean update, they affect how you control and interact with your Railjack and the various things you can do with it.
Intrinsics fall into five different categories, although only four are active in the game at the moment.
Tactical – opens up various options like the Archwing Cannon, and the ability to teleport.
Piloting – how well you can fly the ship, opens up unique movement options.
Gunnery – how well you can use the weapons on the ship.
Engineering – affects your ability to repair the ship, produce vital resources, etc.
Command – details not currently available
You can rank up these abilities with Intrinsic points. You earn these by playing through missions in your Railjack ship. Each time you successfully finish a mission, you earn Intrinsic Points, depending on the difficulty of the task.
See on AmazonAt first, each Intrinsic only costs a single point to upgrade. When you move through each rank, they become more expensive. Even if you don’t have access to a Railjack yet, you can still earn Intrinsics by doing missions and assign them from the main menu in the Profile tab.

The Command Intrinsic
The Command Intrinsic will allow player to recruit Crewmen for their ship from Ticker in Fortuna. She can put you in touch with the right people, for a price. Their price may be determined by your alignment with certain Syndicates – some crew will join you at a discount, and others double the price.
The crewmates will operate the ship when you are flying in squads with less than four players and they can be leveled up to excel at different jobs.
