Characteristics
This weapon deals Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage.
Advantages:
- Tied with Reaper Prime for the highest base damage of all scythes.
- Innate Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage – effective against Ferrite Armor and Fossilized.
- Very high status chance.
- Can reach 100% status chance with Volcanic Edge, Vicious Frost, Voltaic Strike, and Virulent Scourge.
- Heavy attacks throws a Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. wave of up to 20 meters in the direction of the player's aim. The wave leaves a temporary trail on the ground, damaging and staggering enemies standing in it. The residual trail does not proc status effects but has a very high chance to get a stealth multiplier effect.
- Script error: The function "Pol" does not exist. stance polarity matches Stalking Fan.
- Innate Script error: The function "Pol" does not exist. polarity.
Disadvantages:
- Innate Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage – less effective against Proto Shields.
- Very low critical chance.
- Small jump attack radius.
Notes
- When performing a heavy attack, the Caustacyst throws a toxic wave in the direction of the player's aim. This wave will travel up to 20 meters, dealing Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage to all enemies it hits. The wave will also leave behind a temporary trail on the ground that deals Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage to enemies that stand on it.
- Wave range is not affected by Reach or Primed Reach.
- Wave has infinite Punch Through.
- The wave inherits any elemental damage from mods and can proc their status effects, having an approximated 10% base status chance.
- Enemies hit by the wave are also staggered, making them vulnerable to melee finishers (default E ) and susceptible to stealth damage multipliers.
- Enemies stunned by these pools do not have their alert status changed; enemies can be damaged by the pools and still be killed for stealth kills as long as their stun animation is still playing.
- This allows players to launch a pool, then launch up to 3 more charge attacks before the enemy can become alerted.
Tips
- The Caustacyst is an excellent weapon against the Grineer, allowing for Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. and Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. to be used at the same time, as well as additional Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. to attack their health or Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. for extra stunning capabilities.
- Alternatively, it can be paired with Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. for bonus damage against Alloy Armor, pairing with Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist.'s innate armor-peeling to allow for more general use against Grineer enemies.
- The slow attack speed can be mitigated by equipping Fury ( Prime) alongside "Berserker" wasn't found in Module:Mods/data and Gladiator Vice.
Trivia
- This is the first melee weapon with innate Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage.
