Found an Interesting Mod: Primary Acuity
Found this one and its secondary counterpart... haven't found something I want to use it on yet but it seems like it might be worth it. But being an odd mod I figured I'd post here, I'd like to hear what other Tenno think of it.
It's my new addiction. "Weak Point Damage" seems to be its own kind of modifier, maybe additive to Deadhead, definitely not additive to Serration, most probably additive to the previously fixed weakpoint multiplier (e.g. +200% on heads on Grineer). "Weak Point Critical Chance" is multiplicative CC on certain bugged projectiles. Funnily enough, including the Kuva Ogris, so now you too can gamble on getting orange crits with the Ogris without having to be Frost.
My Crit Phenmor build gets about 9 mil per bullet, which is pretty impressive for a rapid fire weapon. I shudder with delight at the potential my Crit Laetum now holds. I think this mod should put (blast) Crit Laetum into the premier Laetum build.
Other weapons I've tested: Cernos Prime, Sicarus, Cestra, Tombfinger, Spirex, Gaze, Angstrum, Zymos, Lex, Furis. Basically anything I was already running Cascadia Accuracy on, which this is a sidegrade to. Zymos and Tombfinger were mildly disappointing. Lex didn't feel great either but it might be a krill issue.
That's horrifying amazing. I assumed it would be additive with Serration and the like... this changes everything. I'm going to figure out some builds for this... this might just put a few of my non-SP guns into SP.
I saw it and was tempted to try it out but it'd probably make me realize how bad I am at finding and shooting weakpoints lol. Raw damage also seems to free up the merciless arcane slot but I'm not sure what else to slot in, maybe it would be a nice combo on a secondary with fortifier?
I'm guessing it is going to be abused a lot with somethine like Citrine however
edit: Actually between this and the arcane that gives bonuses per unique status, Citrine just keeps winning in this update eh?
My bottom line damage on the baza prime is 121 points.
With this mod and a rank 0 primary crux in cyte-09’s hands, it red crits for over 600,000.
If only Sonar created true weak points, instead of fake ones.
Quincy's best friend. I don't even have a proper build yet, but the Neutralizer is already hitting 5M on weaker enemies, and evaporates groups with blast damage. The number of enemies targeted by ricochet seems to be the same regardless of multishot, so no big loss there.
(also worth noting: Semi-Rifle Cannonade negates the fire rate penalty from Critical Delay, so those two mods might as well be roommates)
Seems super handy for the new Apex tank boss.
