- Can reach 100% status chance with
- Possesses momentum during regular swings, which resists interruption such as stagger or knockdown.

- Can be wielded in-tandem with a single-handed secondary weapon.
- Innate Script error: The function "Pol" does not exist. and Script error: The function "Pol" does not exist. polarities.
Disadvantages:

Notes
- The thrown attack deals physical damage, with Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage as the dominant damage type.
- Physical damage mods (like Sundering Strike) increase this damage.
- Physical damage mods (like
- When combining elemental damage mods, the Cerata's innate Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage is added last.
- The innate Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage is ignored for elemental combinations when using throw attacks, thus the addition of a Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage mod is required to maintain any Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist.-based elemental combos for the throw attack.
- When equipping the Cerata, the player can throw it and then press the melee button to detonate the Cerata, dealing high AoE damage and making it return to the player immediately. This is true for all thrown melee weapons.
- This is very useful for regenerating health with Life Strike.
- It can explode in this manner when not equipped and thrown, but the explosion timing cannot be controlled and will often damage the user in close quarters.
- It should be however noted that finisher attacks can still be executed while the weapon is in the air.
- This is very useful for regenerating health with
Trivia
- Cerata (from the Greek word keras/keratos meaning “horn”, a reference to the shape of these structures) are anatomical structures found externally on nudibranches. They are typically used to aid respiration but are sometimes used for attack and defense.
Bugs

Patch History
Update 26.0 (2019-10-31) As a general note, self damage has been removed from Glaive power throws. As this decision made it through the testing pipeline, some mentioned this impacts a specific Chroma interaction, but positively impacts 41 other Warframes.
- Mastery Rank increased from 3 to 7.
- Damage increased from 44 Toxin to 183 (19 Impact, 36 Puncture, 52 Slash, and 76 Toxin).
- Range increased from 0.5 to 1.25
- Slam Attack increased from 88 to 549
- Slide Attack increased from 220 to 366.
- Parry Angle set to 55.
- Follow Through increased from 0.5 to 0.7.
Hotfix 24.5.3 (2019-03-19)
- Changed the Glaive recall to be done with Melee instead of Melee Channel so its consistent again (Channel being a toggle-only messed up this function).
- Fixed an error where, after Dual-Wielding gun and Glaive, throwing the Glaive in the "normal" Melee only mode could result in a turbo throw that is only supposed to apply for Dual-Wield.
Update 17.9 (2015-10-28)
- Introduced.
