Kuva Nukor | Crit/Heat DPS (Anti-Grineer/Corrupted)

Note: Use [Primed Target Cracker] only if using Cascadia Overcharge with consistent overshields, Arcane Avenger, [Adarza Kavat], [Harrow], [Sevagoth] or puncture procs for flat critical chance boost to take advantage of the 10.5x critical damage.

Otherwise, use Scorch in place of Primed Target Cracker.

Mod Breakdown

  • Damage: At max stacks, [Galvanized Shot] provides +120% damage per status and Secondary Merciless provides +360% damage. Since [Kuva Nukor] can proc 4 different statuses itself (hidden microwave status doesn't seem to count for nukor itself), the total damage becomes 4x120% + 360% = +840%.
  • Multishot: Galvanized Diffusion and Lethal Torrent together gives +290% Multishot, Lethal torrent also provides Fire rate bonus
  • Viral/status: [Frostbite] and pistol pestilence create viral procs which boost damage to health (up to 4.25x at 10 stacks) and boost status chance
  • Heat : Primed heated charge, boosts heat DoTs which can stack infinitely and refresh prior stacks, doing the bulk of damage
  • Crits : [Primed Target Cracker] is used to boost the high base CD, but ONLY when used in combination with a flat crit booster like Arcane Avenger or puncture procs from Encumber. You should NOT slot Primed Pistol Gambit/Crit chance mods due to the abysmal base CC. Secondary Encumber is capable of proccing puncture status, which can give a flat +25% at 5 puncture procs for final 32% cc. Compare this to 20%cc after Primed Pistol Gambit.
  • Faction: [Primed Expel Grineer] when fighting grineer, primed expel corrupted when fighting corrupted. Double dips on heat DoTs (2.4x boost). Use regular bane if no primed (still 1.69x DoT boost)
  • Exilus: Primed ammo mutation or normal ammo mutation

Arcane

  • The new arcane Secondary Encumber is able to proc almost every single status (10 in addition to the 4 from nukor to give 1020% extra damage from galvanized shot, compared to +480% from cascadia flare).
  • cascadia flare gives +480% dmg which ramps incredibly quickly
  • Cascadia Empowered now gives additional 750 raw damage for every status afflicted. Since [Kuva Nukor] can afflict about 10 to 20 status per second, you can get potentially up to 15,000 raw damage per second in addition to the base beam.
  • Cascadia Overchage gives 300% crit chance which is a huge dps boost on [Nukor] due to its huge crit multiplier.
