Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily damage.

Advantages:

• Good base damage.
  • High and good damage - effective against armor and health.
• Good critical chance.
• Very high status chance.
• Second highest magazine size of all semi-auto pistols, behind Akbolto Prime.
• Shots trigger the "Target Analysis" buff, additively increasing critical chance and status chance by 4%, stacking up to five times for +20%. Buff can be refreshed on consecutive shots.
• Has 2x and 4x zoom options when zooming in with the weapon.
  • Accurate when zoomed in.

Disadvantages:

• Mostly and no damage - less effective against shields.
• Low critical multiplier.
• Fairly slow reload speed.

Notes

• When a shot hits an enemy, the Arca Scisco gets the "Target Analysis" buff. A flat 4% critical chance and status chance bonus are added after mods, stacking up to five times on shots up to 20%. The buff lasts for 2 seconds and can be refreshed. When the buff times out, one stack is lost and the buff duration resets.
• Target Analysis counts multishot achieved through  Barrel Diffusion and  Lethal Torrent as individual hits, allowing the player to gain its max bonuses in as little as two shots.

Tips

• and can be a potent combination for Grineer, as the puncture damage will deal bonus to armor while the slash procs will bleed them through the armor itself. Because there is no , this makes slash proc more often compared to standard physical damage weapons with slash as the second or third highest damage amount.

Trivia

• The writing on the side of the weapon seems to translate as "LONG BOLTER".
