Dex Sybaris

Tenno Weapons

CONCLAVE (PvP)

The Dex Sybaris is the Dex variant of Sybaris burst-fire rifle, sporting higher critical chance, fire rate, magazine size, and faster reload, but with a slight reduction to damage. It was added in celebration of WARFRAME's 3^rd anniversary.

AcquisitionEdit

The weapon was released in commemoration of WARFRAME's 3^rd Year Anniversary. It is obtainable through yearly anniversaries in March via Alerts, complete with a free weapon slot and a pre-installed Orokin Catalyst.

CharacteristicsEdit

This weapon deals primarily Slash damage.

Advantages:

• Third highest base damage of all burst-fire rifles, behind Sybaris and Sybaris Prime.
  • Tied with Harpak and Hind for the fourth highest burst damage of all burst-fire rifles, behind Sybaris, Sybaris Prime, and Quartakk.
  • High Slash damage – effective against health.
• Highest critical chance of all burst-fire rifles.
• High reload speed.
• Good long range accuracy.
• Low recoil.
• Negligible burst-fire spread.
• Good ammo efficiency.
• Can equip the Sybaris-exclusive Sudden Justice mod. (Conclave only)

Disadvantages:

• Low Impact and Puncture damage – less effective against shields and armor.
• Low status chance.
• Relatively small magazine size.
• Linearly less efficient — sometimes a target may only die with three bullets, which requires an entire second burst to be fired.

Comparisons:

• Dex Sybaris, compared to Sybaris:
  • Lower base damage (75.0 vs. 80.0)
    • Lower Impact damage (22.5 vs. 26.4)
    • Lower Puncture damage (18.75 vs. 26.4)
    • Higher Slash damage (33.75 vs. 27.2)
  • Higher critical chance (35% vs. 25%)
  • Higher fire rate (4.17 rounds/sec vs. 3.98 rounds/sec)
  • Larger magazine (14 rounds vs. 10 rounds)
  • Faster reload speed (1.5 s vs. 2 s)
  • Higher Mastery Rank required (7 vs. 5)

    • Lower Impact damage (22.5 vs. 29.0)
    • Lower Puncture damage (18.75 vs. 29.0)
    • Higher Slash damage (33.75 vs. 29.9)
  • Higher critical chance (35% vs. 30%)
  • Lower status chance (10% vs. 25%)

  • Faster reload speed (1.5 s vs. 2 s)
  • More accurate (29 vs. 25)
  • Different polarities (None vs. )
  • Lower Mastery Rank required (7 vs. 12)

NotesEdit

• The Dex Sybaris comes with its own weapon slot and a pre-installed Orokin Catalyst.
• With a base critical chance of 35%, a fully-ranked Point Strike will increase the Dex Sybaris's critical hit chance to 87.5%. Thus, adding either Critical Delay, Argon Scope, or using  Arcane Avenger will easily bring the critical hit chance above 100%.
  • With this in mind, Vital Sense, Bladed Rounds, and to a lesser extent Hammer Shot are highly recommended, generating massive damage, especially on enemies that can only be injured in vital spots.

TriviaEdit

• The Dex Sybaris is the third Dex weapon released, after the Dex Furis and the Dex Dakra. It is also the first Dex primary weapon to be released.
• The Dex Sybaris has three energy dots near the trigger which indicates that the weapon was released on the third anniversary. The same can be seen for the other Dex weapons: Dex Dakra has two dots, and Dex Furis has one.
• Details on this weapon were leaked via the Warframe Nexus mobile app.
• When firing the Dex Sybaris, the Lotus logo will appear as a muzzle flash, and its color can be customized via the Dex Sybaris's energy color.
• The Dex Sybaris is one of the very few guns in-game with a visible full-length bore.
• The Dex Sybaris was first released from March 22, 2016 to March 29, 2016 on PC, and from April 9, 2016 to April 15, 2016 for consoles. It was released again from March 24, 2017 to March 27, 2017.
