Nova Prime Relics (2026): Where to Farm Every Part
Last Updated on September 18, 2026
Nova Prime needs 4 relics: Meso D5 for the Blueprint (Uncommon slot), Lith N1 for the Chassis (Rare slot), Lith C1 for the Neuroptics (Common slot), Lith C1 for the Systems (Common slot). None of them are in the drop tables right now, so the set is vaulted: open relics you already own, watch Prime Resurgence for Varzia’s Aya offer, or buy the parts for platinum.
Relic tables from DE's Public Export; drop locations and vault state from the live drop tables, checked 2026-09-17.
| Part | Relic | Slot | Intact / Radiant | Best place to farm it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blueprint | Meso D5 (also Neo N2, Axi S4) | Uncommon | 11% / 20% | not dropping right now |
| Chassis | Lith N1 (also Neo N12, Neo N9, Neo V1) | Rare | 2% / 10% | not dropping right now |
| Neuroptics | Lith C1 (also Lith K4, Lith M2, Meso C1) | Common | 25.3% / 16.7% | not dropping right now |
| Systems | Lith C1 (also Meso B3, Meso S1, Neo S2) | Common | 25.3% / 16.7% | not dropping right now |

What Nova Prime is made of
The frame needs a blueprint and 3 components, 4 relic drops in total. The Rare slot is the bottleneck: farm that relic first.
Where each relic drops
None of these relics are in a mission drop table right now: Meso D5, Neo N2, Axi S4, Lith N1, Neo N12, Neo N9, Neo V1, Lith C1, Lith K4, Lith M2, Meso C1, Meso B3, Meso S1, Neo S2, Axi S7. Any of them still opens in a fissure of its era if you own one, the parts trade on warframe.market, and Prime Resurgence brings vaulted relics back for Aya.
How to get a vaulted set
- Check Prime Resurgence: when Varzia lists this set, the relics cost Aya and the whole set costs Regal Aya.
- Search your relic inventory (Esc, Void Relic Refinement) for the relics above; old relics still open in any fissure of their era.
- Trade: the built parts sell on warframe.market, and the price check shows what a full set goes for.
- Build once you have everything: 12 hours per component, then 72 hours for the frame.
