Velocitus

The Velocitus is an Archwing railgun that deals heavy charged shot damage. It is the first weapon to have base damage.

Acquisition

 * Its blueprint can be researched and bought from the Tenno Research Lab in a clan dojo, while it's components are given randomly by completing Corpus Archwing Exterminate missions on Venus and Mars.

Characteristics
Advantages:
 * Highest base damage of Archwing guns.
 * Deals damage, making it highly effective against Corpus shields and Dargyns.
 * High critical chance.
 * Good critical damage.
 * High status chance.
 * Large magazine.

Disadvantages:
 * Slow rate of fire when charged.

Tips

 * As the Velocitus already deals innately, it can accept other combination elemental damage types that use  damage as a base. In particular, adding  damage makes the Velocitus highly effective against Corpus spacecraft like the Gox that use both Shields and Robotic armor.

Trivia

 * The Velocitus is the first weapon that deals  as its base damage type.


 * The Velocitus' name is derived from the word "Velocity". Velocity is the name for the vector: ds/dt, that is the change in position (ds) over the change in time (dt).

Bugs

 * Currently the gun is misaligned in relation to where the round is fired (the round is fired high left in relation to where the barrel is), this can cause the round to hit obstacles and walls in confined spaces.
