Warframe's hallmark summer beach event Dog Days has returned in 2024. To celebrate TennoCon 2024, Dog Days is a little early this year - with a handful of QoL changes to boot. You will no longer have to worry about your friends snatching your bread: all players now get a Nakak Pearl for assists. However, the final blow still gets the big score—2 Naka Pearls per last hit.
Rather than regular missions with modifiers, the Dog Days alerts are implemented as rounds of Rathuum repackaged as a holiday beach retreat. Hosted by a drunk Kela de Thaym, the Dog Days game mode tasks you with outscoring the Grineer in a classic PvE team deathmatch.
Warframe Dog Days 2024 schedule: When does it end?
Warframe Dog Days 2024 kicked off on July 22, and it will last till September 3. During this time, you can find the Dog Days Tactical Alerts in the special alerts tab to the extreme left of the navigation bar.
In Dog Days, the Warframe you select will be reset to 100 Health and no Shields or Armor. Your abilities, weapons, and all installed mods will also be removed. You can only use the Soaktron water rifle and Lob Blob throwables to damage the Grineer opponents.
Unlike Rathuum, there is no point threshold you need to meet. Winning a Dog Days round requires a higher total score than the Executioners when the timer hits zero. However, your point does count towards the total progress, meaning that the additional first-time rewards for each Mission are achieved faster if you hit higher scores.
Warframe Dog Days 2024 Alert rewards
Clearing each Dog Days alert level requires a certain amount of total team score (25/50/75/100). You do not necessarily need to score all of these in the same round, as the score at the end of every successful round counts towards the progress. The following are the rewards for unlocking and clearing each Dog Days mission on Earth:
However, this is not everything you get from Dog Days in Warframe! The Nakak Pearls you bring back home can be used as a currency to get various goodies from an event-exclusive vendor inventory in Cetus
What to do with Nakak Pearls in Warframe Dog Days?
In addition to Glyphs and decorative objects, success in a Dog Days alert gives you a set amount of Nakak Pearls depending on the Mission stage (10/20/30/40). You also get an additional Nakak Pearl per kill that you have individually scored.
These can be taken to Nakak in Cetus. Nakak has a special inventory during the Dog Days alerts where transactions can only be made with Nakak Pearls. The Nakak Pearls stay in your inventory permanently, ready to use for any future recurrence of the Dog Days event.
