    • Statuses from  Manifold Bond do not count.
• The maximum possible number of stacks for this Arcane is 14; This corresponds to a 84% Ability Strength and 42% Ability Efficiency bonus.

Tips

• Warframes that can apply many different status types work particularly well with this Arcane, such as  Lavos,  Voruna,  Citrine, or  Koumei.
• Status effects generated via  Damage Decoy count towards this arcane's bonuses, and  Decoy can be subsumed onto any Warframe via the Helminth.
