How to build a Railjack in Warframe Empyrean
Everything you need to know to build your own Railjack spaceship in Warframe Empyrean.
With Warframe Empyrean now available, players are looking to dive into the update and try out the new Railjack systems. While you can start playing missions with others as soon as you start up the game, those looking to host their own missions will need to build a Railjack. In this guide, we’ll detail everything you need to know to build your own Railjack by completing the Rising Tide questline.
How to build a Railjack in Warframe Empyrean
If you’ve been playing Warframe for a while, then chances are you’ve probably already gotten started on this process. However, if you’re just returning to the game to try out the new update, or completely new to the Warframe universe, then you’re going to have a few hoops to jump through. Basically, you’re going to need to complete a series of objectives to be able to build your own Railjack.
We’ve broken down each step of the process below, as well as included any requirements that you’ll need to meet. Overall, you’re going to need somewhere around 7 million credits or so to make the full repairs that are required to build your own Railjack.

Once you’ve managed to repair each of the items above, you’ll find be able to dive in and walk around your Railjack inside the Dojo’s Dry Dock. You’ll also be able to head out into Empyrean and start completing various missions as the host. As we mentioned before, there is a lot of work and time involved in repairing each of the Railjack components that we’ve outlined above. Not only do you have to acquire the various materials, but you’ll also find that many of the items require time to be repaired. While you could normally bypass this wait time with Platinum, many of these items cannot be rushed and must be waited out.
Now that you know everything that you’ll need to do to build a Railjack, you can choose whether you want to build your own, or just team up with other players who have already done all of the work.
