Guide in the Making

Hello everyone,

My name is UltimoFive and today we are going over the Ambassador, The Surging Repeater.

• The Ambassador is a Corpus Assault Rifle with the ability to switch modes between Full-Auto and Long-Ranged Explosive Shots. In order to obtain the Ambassador one must farm in Corpus Empyrean Survival Missions on Venus, Neptune, Pluto, and the Veil up to Rotation C.

• The Ambassador requires a mastery rank of 10.

• The Ambassador comes with only a "Dash Exilus Slot. Because of this, the builds on this weapon will require 4 Forma.

• The [Ambassador] excels in Short to Long Range Combat and can deal with High Leveled Enemies of all factions in Small to Medium Crowds.

• The Ambassador has an Alternative Fire that Switches the weapon between Full-Auto and Charge-Mode.

Full-Auto Advantages:

• High Status Chance at 26%

• Very Fast Fire Rate at 13.33

Charge Mode Advantages:

• Very High Status Chance at 32%

• Shots Explode in a 6 meter radius upon impact

Overall Advantages:

Builds

Corpus: Total Damage - | Average Hit - | Burst DPS - | Sustained DPS - | Tested up to Level 150

The Element for the [Ambassador] against the Corrupted & Grineer will be Viral. Viral amplifies health damage by 100% for 6 seconds and stacks up to 10 times for a total of 325%. The Build's Flex Slot is High Voltage

Corrupted & Grineer: Total Damage - | Average Hit - | Burst DPS - | Sustained DPS - | Tested up to Level 150

The Element for the Ambassador against the Corrupted & Grineer will be Viral. The Build's Flex Slot is Primed Bane of Corrupted/Grineer or Vital Sense, but only if it is being replaced with a Riven that has Critical Damage.

Infested: Total Damage - | Average Hit - | Burst DPS - | Sustained DPS - | Tested up to Level 150

The Element for the [Ambassador] against the Corrupted & Grineer will be Viral. The Build's Flex Slot is Hammer Shot

Recommended Alternative Mods

• Galvanized Chamber - In place of Split Chamber if you have access to the mod through Arbitration and want to take the Weapons Damage to the next level.

• Galvanized Scope - In place of [Critical Delay] if you have access to the mod through Arbitration and want to take the Weapons Damage to the next level. However, I don't suggest this Mod change against the Infested due to it being rather hard to get Headshot Kills on them.

• Bane Faction Mods - In place of their Primed Counterparts if you don't have them.

• [Point Strike] In place of Critical Delay if you don't want the Negative Fire Rate and are okay with losing a bit of Critical Chance.

• (Primed) Shred - In place of the Build's Flex Slot if you want Punch-Through and to restore Fire Rate from Critical Delay in the Steel Path.

• Hammer Shot - In place of Bane of Corpus, Corrupted, and Grineer if you don't like using Faction Mods.

• Vigilante Armaments - In place of [Bane Of Infested] if you don't like using Faction Mods.

Synergy with Ambassador

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

Damage:

• Rhino's Roar adds bonus damage.

• [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.

• Saryn's Toxic Lash mixed with her Spores abilities.

• Equinox's Rest & Rage in Day Form makes targets more vulnerable to Damage.

• Wisp's Haste Reservoir bolsters fire rate, in turn increasing DPS.

• Chroma's Vex Armor when Health gets damaged increases Weapon Damage.

Critical Stats:

• Harrow's Covenant can add up to 50% Critical Chance and 200% on headshots.

• Volt's Electric Shield when shot through adds a 200% Critical Damage Multiplier.

• Zephyr's Passive increases Critical Chance by 150% while airborne.

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

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

Arcane Synergy

• Arcane Acceleration - Upon Critical Hit, 30% chance for 90% Fire Rate to Primary Weapons for 9 seconds.

• Arcane Avenger - Upon getting hit, 21% chance for 45% Critical Chance for 12 seconds.

• Arcane Rage - Upon getting Headshot, 15% chance for 180% Damage to Primary Weapons for 24 seconds.

• Arcane Primary Charger - On Melee Kill, 30% chance for 300% damage to Primary Weapons for 12 seconds.

• Arcane Arachne - On Wall Latch, 150% Damage for 30 seconds.

Primary Arcane

• Primary Deadhead - On Headshot Kill 120% Damage for 24 seconds, which stacks up to 3 times and comes with 30% Headshot Multiplier and -50% Weapon Recoil. This pairs extremely well with the Ambassador due to it being a Full-Auto Rifle that can easily get Headshots. However, against the Infested I suggest using Primary Merciless instead. This is again, due to how hard it can be to land headshot kills against them.

Riven Synergy

When you get your hands on a Riven for this weapon the Flex Slot to replace will be what was previously discussed before. This can require 1 more Forma and in order to maximize Damage output with Ambassador, one will need to get lucky and get some nice stats. These stats would be:

• Ideal Stats - The Ideal Stats would be; Damage, Critical Damage, Critical Chance, and Negative Zoom or Weapon Recoil.
