Tubercular Gill System Farming in Warframe (2026): Best Cambion Drift Fish
Bait cave hotspots with Vome Residue and fillet at Daughter
Last Updated on September 30, 2026
The short answer
Six Cambion Drift fish carry Tubercular Gill System. The best value is the cave hotspots: bait them with Vome Residue for Chondricord and Duroid at either cycle, then fillet at Daughter. Run it on Gauss and pack Fass Residue for the surface fish.

| Where | Mission | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Cave hotspots, Chondricord and Duroid (Cambion Drift) | Throw Vome Residue, either cycle | Raw bait, no crafting needed. Chondricord also gives Spinal Core Section. |
| Cave pools, Vitreospina (Cambion Drift) | Throw Fass Residue, either cycle | Also yields Dendrite Blastoma and Spinal Core Section. |
| Surface hotspots, Ostimyr (Cambion Drift) | Fass cycle, throw Fass Residue | The surface option when Fass is up. |
| Cave hotspots, Myxostomata (Cambion Drift) | Vome cycle, throw Processed Vome Residue | A rare fish for when you have the processed bait. |
| Surface hotspots, Aquapulmo (Cambion Drift) | Vome cycle, throw Processed Fass Residue | A rare fish that also carries the part. |

The fast route
- Equip a Spari or Ebisu spear.
- Collect Vome Residue while Fass is up. Collect Fass Residue while Vome is up.
- Go to a cave hotspot and throw Vome Residue for Chondricord and Duroid.
- Spear the fish. Bigger fish give more gills.
- Fillet everything at Daughter in the Necralisk.
Best farming frames
| Frame | Role | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Gauss | Fast mover | Mach Rush is a hyper-sprint that gets you between veins, pools and vaults quickly. |
| Volt | Fast mover | Speed gives a short movement boost to you and your squad. |
Tips that save runs
- Chondricord and Duroid work at both cycles, so you never wait on the clock.
- Larger fish give more Tubercular Gill System per fillet.
Mistakes that waste runs
- Using Fass Residue on cave hotspots. Chondricord and Duroid want Vome Residue.
- Keeping fish uncut. The gills come from Daughter, not from the catch.
