Each arrow spawns a swarm of sticky appendages on impact. These tongue-like probes latch onto nearby unfortunates and drag them close before bursting into a mess of diseased goo.

Tentacle Dispersal System

Good Evening, may I interest you in some tentacles?

First issue of the Proboscis Cernos: My ammo maximum is non-existent, help!

No Worries! Max rank Primary Merciless increases your ammo maximum by 100% and [Arrow Mutation] fixes the ammo drop issues you might be having. Keep moving and you won't run out of ammo!

Next up: I can't kill things fast enough and I'm getting swarmed, what do I do?!?!

I feel that on a deep level, here's how we're going to fix that here. Many will tell you to put on Vile Acceleration because of the 90% fire rate increase (double for bows), but it comes with a -15% to damage. Personally, I prefer [Speed Trigger] because the fire rate increase is comparable and doesn't come with a damage reduction! Both are hot swappable so go with what you prefer!

Now we get to the fun part: PROJECTILES!

For our Multishot mod we use [Galvanized Chamber] due to it being bonkers at max stack. To cover a larger area with these projectiles we use Heavy Caliber to reduce our accuracy.

Elements!

Standard Viral and heat works here, but what is shown is viral/elec to make sure high level Corpus die quick. High Voltage can be swapped for any dual stat (60%element/60% status chance) and [Primed Bane Of Corpus] can be swapped for any faction mod

Why [Galvanized Aptitude]??

While this doesn't proc on the explosions, it DOES proc on the tendrils with their DOT ticks. This is also how we get over 100% status chance.

I have a riven for this, what do I remove?

Depending on the stats, [Speed Trigger] or [Heavy Caliber] would be the possible ones I would look at swapping out.

Any other questions can be asked in the comments and I hope you enjoy kicking some serious ass with this bow!
