About this converter
Warframe mods drain capacity by max rank cost. Continuity costs 7 at rank 5. Pressure Point, Point Blank, Flow, Streamline and Stretch cost 9 each at rank 5. Intensify costs 11 at rank 5. Vitality and Redirection cost 12 each at rank 10. Serration, Hornet Strike and Steel Fiber cost 14 each at rank 10. Base items hold 30 capacity at rank 30, doubled to 60 with an Orokin Reactor or Catalyst. Matching polarity halves drain rounded up, so Serration 14 costs 7 in a Madurai slot. Post update 34.0 changed Vitality, Flow and Continuity bases, with current values used.
How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try Serration against Continuity to see the 14 to 7 top gap. The result line prints the equality plus the per unit ratio. Click a table row to load that entry as Entry A with amount 1.
Steel Fiber at 12 in the request is wrong and 14 is used with the correction noted. Primed, Umbral, Galvanized and Flawed drains vary by line and are left out. Capacity rows 30 and 60 frame the math but are not mods. Omitted: Endo upgrade totals, which vary per rank step and lack shared drain rows.
