Bursting Mass is a Weapon Augment Mod for  Mutalist Quanta that accumulates the damage that passes through its infested mass, upon expiring it will release the accumulated damage in a radius. Using secondary fire will manually detonate the exsisting mass.

Stats

Rank	Damage	Radius	Cost
0	50%	15m	4
1	80%	15m	5
2	110%	15m	6
3	140%	15m	7
4	170%	15m	8
5	200%	15m	9

Acquisition

• Bursting Mass could be obtained by reaching certain ranks from Nightwave:
  • Rank 18 from Series 1: The Wolf of Saturn Six.
  • Rank 20 from Intermission III.

Notes

• Adds a separate damage instance to the orb, dealing the accumulated weapon damage in a 15m radius.
  • The explosion's damage composition matches all of the damage that passed through the orb, allowing for a rainbow of elements.
  • Damage is modified by the orb and varies depending on the Mutalist Quanta's multishot. Accumulated damage will be reduced to 66% of the total and  Electricity will be added but will not combine with other elements:
    • +100%  Electricity at +0% Multishot
    • +366%  Electricity at +100% Multishot
    • +500%  Electricity at +200% Multishot
    • +366%  Electricity at +300% Multishot (See bugs)
  • For example, a  Kulstar with a max rank  Hornet Strike and a max rank  Pathogen Rounds firing through a double-stacked orb will add 200 × (1 + 220%) ×(1 + 90% + 366%) ×(1 + 100%) × 0.66 = 844.8  Impact + 760.32  Toxin + 3091.968 Electricity = 4697.088 damage to the explosion.
  • The explosion does not inflict status effects.
  • Faction damage bonuses do not apply whatsoever.
  • Critical bonus damage is not absorbed and the explosion cannot crit.
  • Damage falls off linearly from full 200% damage at the center of the explosion to ~1% damage at the 15m edge.
  • The orb's standard  Toxin explosion and its radius of 8m are unchanged.
• Projectiles created from Warframe abilities can also add damage to the orb.
• Projectiles that deal damage through a separate explosion rather than contact with the projectile itself, such as  Talons and  Antimatter Drop, will not contribute any damage unless they are detonated within the orb.
• Only 1 orb can be deployed at a time with the augment equipped. Split orbs created with a multishot bonus over 200% will detonate instantly.
  • Creating a new orb will detonate any existing orb, allowing manual control of an orb's detonation.

Bugs

• Having multishot between +200% and +300% (Quadshot chance) will create two double-stacked orbs instead of one triple stacked orb and one single-stacked orb. One orb will explode immediately, and you will be left with only +365% Electric instead of the full +500%.
