Notes

• Slash bonus has no effect on the damage of the bleed status effect.
• Can be combined with  Carnis Mandible,  Jagged Edge and  Rending Strike to provide a 360% increase to  Slash damage.
• Compared to a base elemental mod (+90%) in terms of raw damage, Buzz Kill becomes more effective when a weapon's  Slash damage exceeds 75% of total weapon damage. This does not take damage type multipliers into consideration.

Trivia

• Buzz Kill is the second in a three-member series of 120% melee physical damage mods in which the first letter of each mod forms the series "A-B-C".
• Unlike its two cousin mods, which depict each of their modeling Warframes with their Immortal body skin, this mod depicts  Valkyr with her base skin.
