The Knee-Slapper | Pulmonars

Hello everyone,

My name is UltimoFive and today we are going over the Pulmonars, The Knee-Slapper.

The builds for this weapon do a massive amount of damage to the Corpus and Infested once it gets going, and lacks killing speed against the Corrupted and Grineer until around 9x combo chain.

Weapon Information

  • [Pulmonars] is obtained by purchasing the blueprint in the shop and requires these materials to make it.

  • Pulmonars requires a mastery rank of 11.

  • The Pulmonars excels in medium to large crowd destruction, but can suffer with only a few enemies around depending on the level.

  • [Pulmonars] comes with 2 "V" polarity slots along with a "D" Stance slot, and because of this the builds for this weapon require 1 forma.

Advantages vs. Disadvantages

Advantages:

  • High Critical Chance at 19%

  • High Critical Multiplier at 2.3x

  • Very High Status Chance at 33%

Disadvantages:

  • No Puncture or Slash damage, which makes the weapon less effective against armor and health.

  • Below Average Attack Speed at 0.917

Builds

Corpus: Up to Level 140

The Elements for the Pulmonars against the Corpus will be Radiation/Toxin. Radiation causes enemies to attack each other while dealing 100% additional damage to the allied for 12 seconds. This effect can stack up to 10 times up to 550%, meanwhile Toxin deals 50% base damage per second over 6 seconds and ignores shields. This weapon is just amazing against the Corpus due to its innate Impact and Viral damage. Viral mixed with the Toxin status helps nuke Corpus health, while the radiation is there to help deal with the armored enemies of the Corpus, such as the Bursa.

Corrupted & Grineer: Up to Level 140

The Elements for the Pulmonars against the Corrupted and Grineer will be Viral/Heat. Viral amplifies health damage by 100% for 6 seconds and stacks up to 10 times for a total of 325%, meanwhile heat deals 50% base damage per second over 6 seconds while stripping up to 50% armor and causes targets to panic. Against the Corrupted and Grineer this weapon falls a bit short and can't deal with them until it starts to get going with stacks, and because the weapon doesn't have any Slash damage, the weapon performs better with Heat attached.

Infested:Up to Level 140

The Elements for the Pulmonars against the Infested will be Corrosive/Heat. Corrosive reduces armor by 26% for 8 seconds and stacks up to 10 times for a total of 80%. So, due to this weapon not having Slash damage Heat is necessary in order to help deal with the smaller infested while the corrosive just kills off all fossilized infested enemies without a problem.

Recommended Alternative Mods

Recommended Good Mods:

  • Gladiator Rush - In Place of Gladiator Might if you don't have Naroman focus or can't handle the combo chain duration. (Note this will greatly reduce DPS)

  • Amalgam Organ Shatter - In place of [Organ Shatter] if you use Heavy Attacks and are okay with losing 5% Critical Damage.

Ways to increase Critical Chance and Damage

There are several ways to enhance Critical Chance and Damage for this weapon:

Damage:

  • Rhino's Roar adds bonus damage.

  • Valkyr's Warcry bolsters attack speed, in turn increasing DPS

  • [Nova]'s Molecular Prime makes all sources of damage increase by 100% against primed enemies, on top of that they will detonate upon death dealing blast damage.

  • [Mirage]'s Eclipse mixed with her Hall of Mirrors adds a massive damage bonus during the day or in light.

Critical Chance:

  • Harrow's Covenant can add up to 50% Critical Chance and 200% on headshots (Somehow works with melee, but whatever).

  • Adarza Kavat with Cat's Eye can give a 60% Critical Chance boost.

  • Smeeta Kavat with Charm can give a 200% Crit Chance.

Recommended Arcanes

  • Arcane Fury - On Critical Hit, 60% chance for 180% Melee Damage to Melee Weapons for 18 seconds.

  • Arcane Blade Charger - On Primary Weapon Kill, 30% chance for 300% Melee Damage for 12 seconds.

  • Arcane Strike - On Hit, 15% chance for 60% Attack Speed to Melee Weapons for 18 seconds.
