With the eternal power creep of Warframe, the massive Archguns have felt a little out of step with the rest of the game. In lore, these colossal weapons are designed to punch holes in spaceships, but in missions, there has rarely been a strong reason to switch to them due to their performance. Thankfully, that has now been resolved.
Archguns have become a unique weapon class in the game because they can now use both Primary and Secondary Arcanes, significantly enhancing their effectiveness and making them a more viable choice during missions.
## How to Get Archgun Arcane Adapters in Warframe
To obtain Archgun Arcane Adapters, you need to visit **Nightcap**, a new NPC introduced in *The Vallis Undermind* update. Nightcap can be found in Fortuna, but only if you have completed *The New War* quest.
### Finding Nightcap
When you spawn in Fortuna, turn left and look for a mushroom and fungus-covered grate. Beyond that grate is an area known as **The Airlock**, where Nightcap resides.
### Earning Standing and Leveling Nightcap’s Syndicate
By talking to Nightcap, you can take on bounties in the new area beneath Fortuna. Completing these bounties allows you to earn Standing and level up Nightcap’s Syndicate.
When you reach **Rank 3** in the Syndicate, you can begin using **Fegolyte** — a resource earned during Nightcap’s bounties — to purchase Archgun Arcane Adapters from him.
### Sacrifices and Farming Requirements
Each level-up requires a sacrifice, so it’s important to pay close attention to the specific requirements for each adapter. You will need to farm various mushroom types during your missions in the Deepmines to fulfill these sacrifices.
### Additional Way to Acquire Archgun Arcane Adapters
Archgun Arcane Adapters can also be earned as rewards for bounties completed in the Deepmines on **Steel Path** difficulty. Make sure to check the bounty rewards carefully to target those that offer the adapters.
