Overview

If you have ever stood in your Orbiter with three browser tabs open - wiki for numbers, another for polarities, and a spreadsheet that stopped making sense three primes ago; you already know why Armory exists.

Armory is a mod builder and planner for Warframe. It is built for people who like to think in loadouts: which aura clears the drain math, where an augment wants to live, and what actually happens to your effective health when you stop pretending Armor is optional. The interface leans toward the rhythm of the game - familiar names, familiar constraints - while still showing the extra layer of detail that is painful to reconstruct by hand.

Under the hood, equipment and mod data are grounded in Digital Extremes’ public export, with wiki and community sources filling gaps where the raw files go quiet. That means the catalog is alive in the same sense the game is: it shifts when DE shifts, and Armory’s job is to keep the presentation honest rather than nostalgic.

Armory does not live in a vacuum. It maintains a Codex export database - a structured mirror of many Warframe entities - so the sibling Codex app can import collections without reinventing the entire data pipeline. Sign-in, per-game access, and profile settings ride on the shared Auth service, so you get one identity across the Dark Avian Labs stack instead of a pile of unrelated accounts.

Whether you are theorycrafting a steel-path comfort frame or just saving a clean build to share with a friend, Armory is meant to feel less like “documentation you tolerate” and more like a workshop bench: messy inputs, tidy outputs, and enough headroom to change your mind before you commit forma.
