This is what I don't understand: How is "Constant 1k damage hits", even multi hits, an 'awesome' thing in Warframe now? Or...how was it ever?

My Dual Ichors have been left unformad for this update. They only have a Catalyst. I am seeing regular hits in the 10k range. I'm not using Organ Shatter. I'm not using Killing Blow. And they hit multiple targets, and Combo easily for Viral or Corrosive damage. Status can be boosted to obscene levels when paired with Berserker. Everything just DROPS.

The Dual Zorens, Obex, and Fang Prime are similar weapons for different situations.

If it is, that's sort of uh...
