CharacteristicsEdit

This weapon deals primarily Radiation damage.

Advantages:

• Innate Radiation damage – effective against Alloy Armor, Robotic, and Infested Sinew.
• High Puncture damage – effective against armor.
• Second highest status chance of all continuous secondaries, behind Embolist.
  • Can achieve 100% status chance with Scorch (Mod), Frostbite, Pistol Pestilence, and Jolt.
  • Innate Radiation confuses enemies and makes them indiscriminately attack each other.
• Does not use ammo pickups; ammo regenerates over time.
  • Has a 1-second delay after the weapon stops firing before regenerating ammo.
    • Regenerates 40 ammo per second; takes 1 second to regenerate a fully depleted battery.
• Innate 1 meter Punch Through.
• Consumes 0.5 ammo per tick of damage.

Disadvantages:

• Innate Radiation damage - less effective against Shielded, Infested, and Fossilized.
• Low Slash and no Impact damage – less effective against health and shields.
• Damage ramps up from 30% to 100% over 0.6 seconds when firing. After firing stops for 0.8 seconds, the damage decays back to 30% over 2 seconds.
• Low critical chance.
• Below average critical multiplier.
• Range limited to 24 meters.

NotesEdit

• Similar to Ramparts and all Arch-guns, ammo starts to automatically regenerate after 1 seconds of not firing the weapon. This regeneration delay is affected by reload speed mods like Quickdraw and Stunning Speed. The regeneration rate is 40 ammo per second.
  • The reload speed can also be increased passively with Mesa, by using a Toxin-based Elemental Ward or being under the effect of Speed or Penance.
• The Cycron's beam has a maximum range of 24 meters.
  • This makes the Cycron an excellent weapon for multiple elemental builds as its innate Radiation status and a high status chance for other elemental procs allow it to take down enemies quickly with procs alone.
• Even if equipped with Eject Magazine, the Cycron will not bypass its 1-second regeneration delay when holstered. Instead, the mod will simply accelerate the rate at which ammo is regenerated when holstered, once the delay is over.

TipsEdit

• With the new dual wielding feature from Update 21, the Cycron pairs quite well with a Condition Overload Glaive weapon, as you can trigger more status effects with 2 weapons in hand and with the convenience of reloading while attacking with your melee.

TriviaEdit

• The Cycron is the first weapon to use the ammo regeneration mechanic outside of Archwing.

BugsEdit

• Currently, the Cycron can use the Lethal Momentum mod, despite not being a projectile-firing weapon.
