Notes[]

  • The increase in damage stacks additively with mods that increase base damage e.g.  Hornet Strike.
  • Triggers at the end of the reload.
  • Weapons that cannot reload, such as Bows,  Epitaph, and Battery Weapons, cannot activate the buff. However, they can benefit from it once it has been activated by reloading a different weapon.
  • Weapons that reload per shell have a chance of activating Awakening each time a shell is loaded.
  • The passive reload from mods like  Eject Magazine or the Synth Set will activate Awakening.

Patch History[]

Hotfix 34.0.8 (2023-11-09)

  • Fixed Arcane Awakening buff description showing up as a file path.

Update 31.6 (2022-06-09)

ARCANE STAT CHANGES PER RANK

We’ve adjusted the values of older Arcanes with the goal of making lower rank Arcanes more viable, and more desirable while collecting as a result. In short, there are three stats that each Arcane tends to have (speaking generally) -- for example, a percentage chance, a stat buff, and the duration of the buff.

Certain Arcanes increase all of these stats per rank (making them scale exponentially), but we are changing it so that only one stat is affected by rank (making it scale linearly). The other stats will now be at the max-rank value regardless of the Arcane Rank, thereby buffing lower-rank Arcanes as a result.
