A standard viral + Hunter Munition mod set up for weapons.

[Acceltra] has a mechanic where your bullets become explosive after traveling for 7 meters, this makes the weapon good. It also has a second mechanic where your reload speed is faster when you're sprinting, so make sure to do that!

Because our bullets are aoe (radial) Galvanized Aptitude will not work on our weapon, aka it will not increase our damage. It will increase the damage that our bullets pre 7 meters do, but we aren't looking to use this weapon as a melee weapon. This is the reason why we run Serration.

This weapon has ammo economy issues, because of it's low ammo/[Mag] capacity and high fire rate. A rank 5 Primary Merciless as well as Vigilante Supplies are a must!

This weapon is similar to Ignis Wraith in the sense that it falls off completely the higher the mob levels go because the damage is simply not there. It is still usable in steel path but do not rely on it and look for better options as you progress the game. This weapon is, like [Ignis], accessible for mr9 players and quite easy to obtain so it serves it's purpose.

Bane mods play a huge roll in this build because they double dip our HM slash procs and they don't get their damage diluted with other mods.

Hunter Munition is a must because the bleed procs from applying the slash procs are our main damage source. Without this mod, this weapon would just be a normal star char room clear, and even then it would get outclassed by many other weapons.

Please do not remove Serration for other mods such as Vile Acceleration or Bladed Rounds even if the website shows that they will give higher dps, because the website doesn't count in the ammo economy issues you'll be facing when you increase your fire rate on an already high fire rate weapon. You'll also be fully relying on your Primary Merciless arcane and it's procs so that's a big no because without the base damage bonus, trying to ramp it back up to full can become nearly impossible and the gun behaves similarly to when you completely lose your combo meter on a melee weapon. Except imagine if you only built your combo meter back if you killed enemies with your melee. It would make using anything other than Naramon's Focus school untenable for level-cap endurance runs or even reasonably long Steel Path runs.
