Lines from the official update notes that mention this entry.

1. Iceblade of Narin: Hotfix 44.0.330 Sept 2026
   • FixedFixed a script error related to Cyte-09's Resupply.
2. Update 44: Iceblade of Narin23 Sept 2026
   • ChangedFixed a combination of Punch Through & Fire Rate causing significant performance issues with certain weapons (or with Cyte’s Seek).
   • FixedFixed the bonus damage from Cyte-09’s Resupply packs not being affected by Ability Strength if picked up from the ground.
3. Amir’s Shockwave: Hotfix 43.5.213 Aug 2026
   • FixedFixed damage of multiple Electric Ammo Packs from Cyte-09's Resupply stacking with another.
4. Update 43: Jade Shadows: Constellations17 Jun 2026
   • FixedFixed Evade’s ability duration not extending on weakpoint kill when it is subsumed over Doom on Dagath and Spectral Spirit is equipped.
5. Update 42: The Shadowgrapher25 Mar 2026
   • ChangedHarrow’s Thurible energy per kill channeling now benefits from damage-over-time kills that were triggered by shooting an enemy in the head (similar to Cyte-09’s Evade).
   • ChangedOraxia’s Toxin buff from Silken Stride is now prioritized over Cyte-09’s Resupply and Uriel’s Runes.
   • ChangedCyte-09’s Resupply is now prioritized the same as Uriel’s Demonium.
   • ChangedPreviously, Demonium would completely override and clear the selected Elemental ammo from Cyte-09’s Resupply.
   • ChangedSo if you pick up a Rune and then a Resupply pack, it will swap from the Rune buff to Resupply’s buff and vice versa.
   • ChangedAdditionally, if you pick up a Resupply pack while Uriel’s Demonium Rune buff is active, it will swap to Resupply’s Elemental damage. But if the Rune buff is still active at the time that you reload/empty the clip, it will apply once more.
   • ChangedKnown issue: Clients using Sobek’s Acid Shells Augment do not apply Resupply’s elemental damage. This requires further investigation from the team to address.
   • ChangedMade the following changes to the audio muffling effect when using invisibility Warframes (Cyte-09, Oraxia, Loki, and Ivara) with player feedback that it can be irritating over a sustained period of time:
   • FixedAlso fixed elemental ammo (ex: from Cyte-09’s Resupply or Oraxia’s Silken Stride) causing Primary Crux to trigger multiple times off of one projectile.
   • FixedFixed Ivara’s Artemis Bow and Cyte-09’s Neutralizer not benefitting from Spectral Serration if their invisibility ability (Prowl and Evade) is cast before their Exalted Weapon.
   • FixedFixed Cyte-09’s Seek applying punch through to Brightbonnet mushrooms (subsumed onto Cyte-09), causing them to go through the floor.
   • FixedFixed offset issues with certain leg armors on Cyte-09.
6. The Old Peace: Hotfix 41.0.316 Dec 2025
   • FixedFixed Arcane Irradiate triggering recursively off of Cyte-09's Resupply elemental ammo.
7. The Old Peace: Hotfix 41.0.111 Dec 2025
   • FixedFixed a script error caused by Cyte-09's Resupply when used with the Bombastine's Malice Decree.
8. Update 41: The Old Peace10 Dec 2025
   • ChangedNote on replacing Uriel’s abilities at Helminth: Similar to Cyte-09 and other Warframes with damage buffs abilities, you can only have a single damage buffing ability on Uriel. Damage buffing abilities applied through the Helminth must override Demonium.
   • ChangedChanged Elemental Ammo (e.g. Cyte-09’s Resupply) to apply its elemental damage instance twice On Headshot/Weakpoint hit upgrades/buffs.
