Stances are extremely important in Warframe. Melee combat is incredibly powerful, and your stance will dictate your available moveset with the melee weapon you are using. This means the actual combos that you can do, and any affects they have, are all based on your stance. Most weapon type have multiple Stance Mods available for them, and you can change up the style of any weapon by switching the Stance.
This means it is a good idea to experiment with stances and combos to find something that you enjoy and is effective.
How to check Stance Combos
You can view all combos that will be available with a Stance by clicking the “Combos” button beside the stance mod when it is installed in a weapon.
How to get Stance Mods
Stance Mods drop from a range of enemies in the game, assorted bosses, as bounty rewards, or from Conclave. You can also pick up some valuable Stance Mods from Baro Ki’Teer from time to time.
If you really want a Stance, you should keep in mind that all Stances can be traded between players, and the trade tax is normally quite low. You can use a website like Warframe Market to find someone who is selling a Stance you want, but you will normally need to part with some Platinum to get it.
You can also use the in-game Trade Chat to make a request for an item, and if someone in chat has it, they may be willing to sell it to you. It is still a good idea to use the Warframe Market to get a good idea of the going rate of the mod before you buy.
