NotesEdit

• With maxed rank dual-stat event mods Virulent Scourge, Voltaic Strike, Volcanic Edge, and Vicious Frost the Bo Prime can achieve a status chance of 85%. Adding Melee Prowess increases this to 88.75%.
  • Combining the above with Enduring Strike will result in an 103.75% status chance during channeling.
• Its generous status chance makes it useful for slowing down enemies with North Wind.
• Due to its lack of Slash damage, mods such as Jagged Edge and Buzz Kill have no effect on it.

TipsEdit

• Due to its high status chance, the Bo Prime is a viable candidate for Elemental damage.
• With proper mods installed, coupled with its large range and moderate attack speed, the Bo Prime can be an effective tool for dealing with large crowds.

TriviaEdit

• This is the first staff to have a primed variant.
• The Bo Prime was first seen as an accidentally leaked Codex entry in Update 13.0, along with the Serro and the Venka, before any of the weapons were released.
• Bo Prime's ornaments protract when in use.
• The Bo Prime briefly appeared on the Market for ‍ 65 following Update 17.1. This error was quickly corrected with Hotfix 17.1.1.
