by Nicola Ardron on March 8, 2019

Digital Extreme’s has kicked off the first time-limited Community Event of 2019 for the free-to-play Warframe.

Operation: Buried Debts is available now, for free on PC, and players will get to explore the coldest regions of Fortuna’s Orb Vallis. Included in the event is a new Warframe – Hildryn.

You can watch the profile for Hildryn below:

Unlike most other Warframes, Hildryn can draw from her shields to fuel her abilities, while energy works to recharge them.

HILDRYN’S ABILITIES; UNIQUE REWARDS
- Balefire: Charge and launch devastating bolts of fire.
- Shield Pillage: Pillage a percentage of Shields and Armor of nearby enemies to replenish her own Shields and Overshields.
- Haven: Create a Shield aura around allies. Enemies that approach Shielded allies will take damage.
- Aegis Storm: Take the skies and rain Balefire rockets down on the enemy. Nearby enemies are blasted into the air where they will create an Energy Orb every few seconds. When Shields runs out the enemies are smashed into the ground.
- Unlock Rewards: Earn unique items throughout the Operation such as an Emblem, Sigil, Amalgam Mods, and the Opticor Vandal, but you’ll need to take down a tremendous foe to unlock your final reward. You’ll find your first clue waiting for you in the Vallis.
- Enhance Yourself: Earn Hildryn’s specialized new Surator Syandana and Asuron alt helmet, the Corpus Quaro Syandana, and wield her signature heavy weapon, the Larkspur, a unique and menacing Arch-gun with a wild initial attack that locks onto a target then chains other targets close to the first.
OTHER ADDITIONS:
- Mod Your K-Drive: Earn increased Standing faster by competing in K-Drive races around the Orb Vallis! Then unlock new modular parts to customize the K-Drive
- Ephemera!: There is a whole new way to customize Warframes. Earn new Ephemera effects in a variety of ways: Arbitrations, the Stalker, and Elite Sanctuary Onslaughts
- Limbo Deluxe Has Arrived: Become one with the Sentients as the illusive, deceptive Limbo! Available now in the Marketplace, the Limina Limbo Deluxe Skin, Tarock Thrown Blade Skin, Interga Sugatra, and the Sidereal Syandana are purchasable as individual items or as part of the Limbo Deluxe Bundle
- Tatsu Sword: Fearsome and noble, the elegant two-handed Nikana is the pride of any arsenal
- Curly Hairstyles: Give Operators a fresh look with one of three new curly hairstyles

Buried Debts is the second major update to Fortuna, following The Profit-Taker, currently available on PC, PlayStation4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
