Warframe offers players a lot of customisation options to make their weapons and Warframe more powerful through modifications and upgrades. So, if you need to get the Warframe Buzz Kill mod, we'll show you how.

There are currently two ways to acquire the Warframe Buzz Kill mod, so depending on your progress in the game, you have some options. One of the easiest ways is by purchasing it from the merchant Baro Ki'Teer when his store is available. It costs 375 Ducats and 150,000 Credits to buy, but it will not always be in Ki'teer's store. It's also worth noting that he only makes an appearance every two weeks, staying for 48 hours before disappearing, so you will have to watch out for when he becomes available. 

The other way of earning the Buzz Kill mod is by capturing or killing an Eidolon Hydrolyst. This is a grand boss that appears on the Plains of Eidolon at nighttime, and is the third boss you can encounter in the area after defeating the Eidolon Teralyst and Eidolon Gantulyst. The best way to deal with them is by staying airborne to avoid the lethal ground attacks and focus the weak points in its shoulder and knees. The Buzz Kill only has an 8% chance of dropping, so you may have to repeat the fight a lot before earning it. 

That's all for our breakdown of how to earn the Warframe Buzz Kill mod, and now you should be able to get it from Baro Ki'Teer or the Eidolon Hydrolyst.

The Buzz Kill is a type of modification that players can attach to their melee weapons. It gives you a 20% boost to your Slash melee damage, which maxes out at 120% when fully upgraded to rank five.

It has no effect on the Bleed status effect, but it can be combined with other mods that increase Slash damage, giving you a potential 360% increase.
