The Lua's Prey update for Warframe added the Conjunction Survival game type to Lua, a twist on the fan-favorite endless game type. Fight your way across the gilded moon and gain access to powerful Void Tear buffs, Lua Thrax Plasms, and earn parts to craft the Voruna Warframe.

Conjunction Survival can be a serious test of your build if you just unlocked this mode. Fortunately, some of this mode's unique mechanics give you an edge and allow you to better target-farm items you're interested in. This guide will cover how to unlock Conjunction Survival, showcase notable differences from standard Survival, and we'll cover all the rewards you can expect by playing this game type.
How To Unlock Conjunction Survival
Conjunction Survival is unlocked upon completing "The War Within" quest. Once complete, visit Lua on your Star Chart to find two new nodes: Yuvarium (Level 25-30) and Circulus (Level 80-100). Each node features the same game type but has different drop tables (explained later).
You'll also need to unlock the Zariman tileset to visit Archimedean Yonta, a vendor that sells specific drops from the Conjunction Survival drop table. To unlock the Zariman, you must finish both "The New War" and "Angels of the Zariman" quests.

Playing Conjunction Survival
Conjunction Survival is quite similar to your typical Survival mission. Players must maintain their life support levels by defeating enemies to stay alive. The Lotus will spawn life support capsules that refill 30% of your life support every 90 seconds, up to a cap of eight dormant capsules simultaneously. Once your life support is empty, you'll be forced to extract. Rewards spawn every five minutes in the following rotation: A, A, B, C.
The notable difference with Conjunction Survival is the presence of Void Tears. One section of the map will contain a Lone Guardian, an invincible NPC that wanders toward any dormant life support capsules. This fallen Dax soldier projects a monochromatic aura in a small radius, buffing your Warframe with +100% Ability Strength and +50% Casting Speed while inside the aura. This effect persists for five seconds if you leave this field.
Using Necramechs
Conjunction Survival allows you to summon Necramechs, massive vehicles which are obtained from Deimos. Necramechs may be used for up to two minutes before triggering a ten-minute cooldown timer. Use your Necramech to make short work of Thrax units and Sentients.
Every five minutes that pass will spawn multiple Thrax enemies, Void/Grineer hybrid enemies that increase life support usage by 50%. Lower their physical form's HP, then use your Operator to destroy their ethereal form. You'll be rewarded with Lua Thrax Plasm every reward interval for your trouble.

Rewards And Drop Tables
Unlike most game types, Conjunction Survival features both random and deterministic rewards. Every reward rotation in Conjunction Survival has a small pool of rewards as you'd expect, but every five minutes will drop a currency type you can exchange for specific drops. If you're struggling to get a specific Voruna part, you can simply buy it with any spare Lua Thrax Plasms you've found.
Conjunction Survival drops Voruna, the Perigale sniper, and Sarofang heavy blade. Certain Arcanes are also exclusive to this mode (shown below).

Tips And Tricks
- Fight near life support capsules. The Dax soldier will meditate beside life support capsules, making it easier to fight around its powerful aura.
- Reserve your Necramech for reward intervals. Every five minutes, multiple Thrax units and Sentients will spawn. If they prove too challenging, summon your Necramech.
- This triggers a ten-minute cooldown, so make it count.
- Bring loot Warframes. Additional life support can spawn if you use Nekros' Desecrate, Khora's Pilfering Strangledome, Ivara's Prowl, and other loot-related abilities/augments.
