Notes[]

  • The Prisma Angstrum's extremely fast charge rate before firing a full rocket swarm can allow players to eschew fire rate mods that would otherwise be needed on the normal variant, allowing for better damage-based builds.
  • There is a slight yet noticeable delay between the Angstrum completing its charge and the rockets exiting the barrel.

Trivia[]

  • The Prisma Angstrum is the first Prisma secondary ever released.
