• The added  Void damage to the Companion's weapon allows  Manifold Bond to proc Void status on their Precept mods.
• stacks with other sources of amp ammo efficiency, such as the amp arcane Eternal Logistics. Combining the two allows the amp to gain 100% ammo efficiency, granting it infinite ammo.

Hotfix 34.0.5 (2023-10-26)

• Changed Astral Bond to increase your Companion's attack damage and grant a smaller amount of Void Damage. The intention is to have the Mod be more well-rounded for combat instances where Void damage wouldn’t necessarily be required. In cases where it would be (Eidolon Hunts), the idea is to maintain Operator/Drifter as the primary active means of stripping away their damage resistances.
