Forma is used to Add different polarities to MAX level weapons or warframes. Every mod have different polarity and slot capacity which you can see on top-right corner of mod. Installing mod on same polarity slot will reduce the slot capacity required by mod into half. For example, If mod uses 14 slot capacity,installing into same polarity slot will cost only 7 capacity. Note that using forma will drop your weapon/warframe back to level 0.

2. Where to get Forma?

Forma can be purchase from market for 20p/ 20 platinum.This is easiest way.
