How To Get Fish Oil In Warframe

So, You Want Fish Oil in Warframe, Huh?

Let's be real. You're staring at that crafting recipe again. That darn fish oil is always the bottleneck, isn't it?

Don't worry, fellow Tenno, you're not alone. We've all been there, knee-deep in alien pond scum, desperately hoping for a single glistening drop of the good stuff.

Option 1: Become a Space Fisherman

First up, the obvious: fishing! Grab your spear and head to the Plains of Eidolon or Orb Vallis. You know, those places with the beautiful scenery and equally annoying Grineer/Corpus patrols.

Now, this is where the fun begins. Cast your spear, reel it in, and pray to the Void that you get something other than a goop fish. Seriously, who needs more goop fish?

Once you catch something worthwhile, head back to Hai-Luk (Plains of Eidolon) or The Business (Orb Vallis). They'll happily butcher your catch into its component parts, hopefully including that precious fish oil.

My Unpopular Opinion: Fishing Is…Fine.

Okay, hear me out. Fishing can be relaxing. The sunsets are pretty, and sometimes you even get lucky with a rare fish!

But, let's be honest, it's also a bit tedious. Spending an hour just to get enough fish oil for one item? Oof.

Option 2: The "I Can't Be Bothered" Method

Alright, you're a busy Tenno, I get it. You've got Grineer to obliterate, Corpus to bankrupt, and planets to save!

If fishing feels like a chore, then there’s one (often overlooked) simple solution: trading!

Hit up the Warframe Market. Yes, I know, trading can be intimidating. Just search for fish oil, find someone selling it, and make an offer. Platinum is usually the preferred currency.

A little platinum buys you a lot of time and avoids the frustration of empty-handed fishing trips. Plus, supporting your fellow Tenno is always a good thing!

Option 3: The Passive Income Stream (AKA Mining)

Did you know some mining nodes in the Plains of Eidolon also drop fish oil? It's not the most efficient method, but it's a nice little bonus while you're gathering minerals.

Equip your mining tool and start blasting those red and blue veins. It's a good way to break up the fishing monotony.

Pro-Tip: Boost Those Chances!

Consider using a resource booster! They double the resources you obtain, making all your fishing and mining endeavors twice as fruitful. It's a worthwhile investment, trust me.

Bonus Unpopular Opinion: Fish Decorations Are Kinda Creepy.

Seriously, why would you want a dead fish hanging on your wall in your Orbiter? Okay, maybe I'm judging. But still...

The Bottom Line

Getting fish oil in Warframe can be a bit of a grind. But with the right strategy (and maybe a little platinum), you can get all you need without losing your sanity.

So, go forth, Tenno, and conquer those crafting recipes! Just, you know, try not to smell too fishy afterwards. Good luck!
