Warframe's New War update added a variety of new stuff to the game, ranging from new Warframes to questlines and much more. With New War being one of the largest updates that the game has ever seen, there is plenty that players need to explore.One of the things that left Warframe players in a dilemma is whether to choose between the Drifter or Operator. Considering that the game does little to give players an insight into what each has to offer and what differences their choice will entail, it can feel like quite a difficult choice to make. This guide's got you covered.

Which One To Choose Between Drifter & Operator?
While the choice might be quite intimidating at first, the good news is that you can't go wrong with either of these choices in the game. It will not be having any long-term repercussions in the game. Regardless of the choice you make, your abilities, Amp, and Warframe will still remain changed.
On top of that, players will be able to swap between the two once they have completed the quest. This was clarified by an administrator in the Warframe forums as well, who states, “Don’t think too hard about it! Pick your favorite out of the two, and then direct your focus to your Transference chair in your Orbiter after the Quest.”
In short, you can pick whatever you like, and it is not going to make any difference whatsoever. Your choices will only matter till the end of the quest. The only thing you need to be mindful of, however, is the fact that the quest in question can be played only once. So, if you intend to try it again with a different choice, you might not be able to do that. That being said, the negligible difference in the outcome ensures that you aren't missing out on a lot.
