CODEX

Fashioned with Grineer materials and balanced for marine infantry use, the Amphis is a traditional staff weapon that has received a monstrous makeover that enables shock damage on jump attacks. Connects with multiple enemies with each strike.

The Amphis causes a stun effect with high damage, making it very effective against Corpus shields. This weapon can be sold for 5,000 Credits 5,000. It is the choice weapon of Grineer Guardsmen and Prosecutors.

This weapon is a requisite ingredient for the  Sydon.

Notes

• The blueprint for this weapon was added on March 1, 2013.
• The electrical AoE jump attack is especially effective against Corpus, paralyzing Crewmen and MOAs and reaching Ospreys.
• Lethal blows send enemies flying like the  Bo. 
• Needed to build the  Sydon. 
• If equipped with  Primed Reach the AoE jump attack blows up Bombard rockets. 

Trivia

• Until Update 13.0 (2014-04-09), the Amphis was not used by any Grineer unit. This would be a little over 1 year between the Amphis's introduction (February 22, 2013) and Guardsmen being added into the game (April 10, 2014).
• On Jump attacks, the Amphis releases six small streams of electricity that each travel outwards lead by a sparking orb. This cosmetic effect is shared with the  Prova.
