CODEX

Rain down a triple volley of explosive disease bladders from a distance, then move in for the kill by unloading a multi-shot barrage of toxic barbs with primary fire.

The Bubonico is an Infested Shotgun Arm-Cannon that launches a barrage of  Toxin blasts from its primary fire, while its Alternate Fire shoots three explosive  Viral shots in a burst.

Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily  Slash damage on its primary fire and  Viral on its Alternate Fire.

Advantages:

• Primary fire shoots multishot barrages in a fully automatic fashion.
  • High  Slash damage – effective against health.
  • Innate  Toxin damage – effective against Flesh and bypasses Shields and Proto Shields.
  • Very high critical chance.
  • Above average critical multiplier.
  • Average per shot status chance.
  • Innate 1.9 meter Punch Through.
  • Innate multishot of 7 pellets.
  • High accuracy.
• Alternate Fire burst-fires three rounds that creates a 7 meter area of effect explosion on impact with a surface or enemy.
  • Innate  Viral damage – effective against Flesh and Cloned Flesh.
  • Extremely high critical multiplier.
  • Highest status chance of all weapons.
  • Pinpoint accuracy.
• Does not use ammo pickups; ammo regenerates over time.
  • Has a 0.5-second delay before ammo begins to regenerate.
    • Regenerates 16.875 ammo per second; takes 1.6 seconds to regenerate a fully depleted battery excluding the delay.
• Able to perform actions limited to secondary weapons, such as carrying objects or firing during bleedout.
• Innate polarity.

Disadvantages:

• Primary Fire:
  • Low  Impact damage – less effective against shields.
  • Innate  Toxin damage – less effective against Machinery, Robotic, and Fossilized.
  • Has linear damage falloff from 100% to 50% from 19m to 41m target distance (distances are affected by Projectile Speed).
  • Projectiles have travel time.
• Alternate Fire:
  • Innate  Viral damage – less effective against Machinery and Infested.
    • Damage cannot be increased with  Impact,  Puncture or  Slash mods.
  • Extremely low critical chance.
  • Consumes 3 rounds per shot (9 rounds per burst).
  • Projectiles have travel time with heavy arcing.
  • Slow Projectile Speed.
  • Explosion inflicts self-stagger.
  • Explosion has linear damage falloff from 100% to 50% from central impact.

The Bubonico's blueprint can be researched from the Bio Lab in the dojo.

Notes

• Bubonico uses shotgun mods.

Tips

• There are several ways to make use of the Alternate Fire's high critical damage by adding flat critical chance bonuses:
  • An Adarza Kavat with  Cat's Eye can give your weapons an additive 60% boost to critical chance.
  • Likewise, Smeeta Kavat's  Charm can guarantee orange crits as one of its possible effects.
  • With another player using the  Mutalist Quanta's Alternate Fire, shooting through the orb adds a flat +25% critical chance, in addition to +25% critical damage and extra  Electricity.
  •  Harrow's  Covenant can add up to +50% additive crit chance, or +200% on headshots, after absorbing enough damage.
  • A fully ranked  Arcane Avenger has a 21% chance upon receiving damage to grant +45% flat critical chance.

Trivia

• Bubonico is a play on Bubonic plague, a type of infectious disease also known as the Black Death.
• Bubonico is the second arm cannon added in WARFRAME.
