This a general use steel path build for [Akarius Prime]
Best used with some form of Ammo Efficiency e.g. Arcane Pistoleer, Energized Munitions, or Akimbo Slip Shot. Despite being an AOE, it is actually quite easy to randomly headshot and proc Arcane Pistoleer.
MOD BREAKDOWN
- Galvanized Diffusion: Mandatory multishot
- Primed Pistol Gambit/[Creeping Bullseye]: Mandatory Crit chance, would prefer Primed Pistol Gambit but creeping bullseye fits the innate polarity and is easier to get
- Primed Target Cracker: Mandatory Crit damage
- Lethal Torrent: Gives fire rate and extra multishot. Flexible for Anemic Agility.
- Pistol Pestilence + Frostbite/[Ice Storm]: Gives viral and status chance. Viral status increases all damage to health, 2x at one viral status and 4.25x at 10 viral status. Viral damage has a 75% damage bonus against cloned flesh possessed by most Grineer/Corrupted units. Ice storm adds an additional shot in the magazine.
- [Primed Heated Charge]: Gives raw heat damage which has a 25% damage bonus against cloned flesh, heat procs which deal damage over time and procs Cascadia Flare to provide base damage
- [Primed Fulmination]: Boosts 7.8m AOE radius to 11.2m, which is a 2x increase in horizontal area. Flexible for: Primed Expel, Hornet Strike, Anemic Agility
-Primed Ammo Mutation: has very poor ammo economy
ARCANE
- Cascadia Flare: Gives +480% base damage easily stackable with heat procs allowing you to drop Hornet Strike. Flexible for Primary Merciless.
- Akimbo Slip Shot: gives ammo efficiency, but requires you to mod base damage with hornet strike e.g. over Lethal Torrent
RIVEN
