NotesEdit
- Drifting Contact is additive with similar mods. For example, a Galatine with a max rank Drifting Contact and Melee Prowess will have a 20% × (1 + 40% + 15%) = 31% status chance.
- Obtained from medium Nightmare Missions, which can be found on Phobos, Jupiter, Saturn, Void, Lua, Europa, Ceres and Kuva Fortress.
- At max rank, Drifting Contact increases the total melee combo counter time to 13 seconds.
- Combined with Body Count and Gladiator Rush, the counter time is increased to 31 seconds.
- With "Power Spike" (Naramon Focus node) the Melee Combo Counter decreases by a certain amount (at Rank 1, 20) each time that the Counter would run out. So, with a maxed Drifting Contact, it decreases the Counter every 13 seconds. Without mods, the Counter gets decreased every 3 seconds.
- Combined with
- Can be stacked with Melee Prowess, Volcanic Edge, Vicious Frost, Voltaic Strike, Virulent Scourge, and Enduring Strike for a 355% increase in Status Chance while Channeling. On weapons with at least 22% base Status Chance, this allows them to achieve a total Status Chance value of 100%, allowing every strike to deal Status Effect procs.
- Weeping Wounds can further increase the Status Chance depending on the Melee Combo Counter.
- Works well with other mods affecting Melee Combos like Weeping Wounds, Body Count, Gladiator Rush, Blood Rush, Rising Storm and Surging Dash.
