Warframe Usage — 2020

What Tenno actually equipped, straight from Digital Extremes.

Digital Extremes publish these figures once a year, and say of them: “this data is meant to pique the interest of community members and does not serve as a tier list or any other statement on item viability.” They measure equipped time for items at rank 30 or above, so levelling does not count. Shown here as a usage record and a multi-year trend — not a ranking, and not a live meta like the other sections on this site.

Shares are of equipped time within each category and sum to 100% across it, which is worth keeping in mind when reading them: with 40+ items listed per category, a few per cent is a large share. Movement is against the previous published year; an item with no figure that year is marked “new” rather than shown as a jump from zero.
