How to Get Target Cracker in Warframe (2026): Where It Drops, Stats and Is It Worth It

Target Cracker increases the critical multiplier of a pistol by 60% at max rank

Last Updated on September 18, 2026

The short answer

Target Cracker is an uncommon pistol (secondary) mod: Target Cracker increases the critical multiplier of a pistol by 60% at max rank. The fastest way to get Target Cracker is to farm any of the Defense missions on Rot B, such as Venus/Romula, due to their higher drop chance. It is on 4 of our 242 weapon builds.

Reviewed September 13, 2026, current through Update 43.5. Stats are max rank from the live game data, drop chances from the official drop tables; this page is re-checked after every major patch.

Tips that save runs

  • Primed Pistol Gambit on critical pistols like Akstiletto Prime
  • Hornet Strike for overall damage increase on critical pistols
  • Lethal Torrent for fire rate and multishot on critical pistols
  • The mod increases the critical multiplier by a flat amount.
  • A flawed version of the mod exists, offering a maximum of 30% critical multiplier.

Mistakes that waste runs

  • Players might confuse critical multiplier with critical chance.
  • Players might try to equip it on primary or melee weapons.
  • Players might not realize the flawed version has a lower max rank and effect.
