Corrosive Damage is one of six secondary elemental damage types players can use in Warframe. Every weapon in Warframe can be equipped with various elemental mods, each with their own unique effects, strengths, and weaknesses. Knowing how each type of damage works is essential for completing daily challenges or difficult content. Corrosive is one of the best damage types Warframe has to offer. This guide will walk you through how Corrosive Damage works and how to use it in Warframe.

How to Use Corrosive Damage in Warframe
Corrosive damage is a powerful element capable of quickly destroying heavily armored enemies like the Grineer. Unlike the four base items, Corrosive does not exist as its own equipable Mod. To change a weapon’s damage type to Corrosive, you must equip a Toxic and Electric mod to the same weapon to change its damage type to Corrosive.

The Corrosive element is created when Toxic and Electric mods are combined, and it gains new effects to compensate for the loss of Toxic and Electric damage. Corrosive damage applies a stack of Corrosion. Each stack of Corrusion degrades enemy armor by 26% over eight seconds. This can stack until an enemy’s armor is reduced by 80%. This damage type is very effective against Grineer and Infested heavy armor, but doesn’t work well against Corpus and their shields.
How to Complete the Meltdown Challenge in Warframe
The Meltdown Challenge is one of many rotating Daily Nightwave Challenges that players can complete while playing Warframe. This challenge requires you to kill 150 enemies with corrosive damage.

You can complete this mission anywhere, but we recommend doing a survival mission on Earth. Corrosive is very effective against Grineer enemies, and since it’s a low level planet, getting 150 Corrosive kills should only take a run or two.
Harness this powerful item to quickly bring Grineer and Infested forces to work on all Warframe missions and locations in the Sol system.
