Arcane Epidemic is an Arcane Enhancement for Zaws that unleashes a wave of Infested energy that suspends enemies caught in the blast radius, generated from the melee ground slam performed immediately after a bullet jump or double jump.

Acquisition

• Can be bought unranked from Nakak during Operation: Plague Star for 5000 Standing 5000 + 1,500 Credits 1,500 each upon reaching the rank of Defender with Operational Supply.
• Could be bought unranked from Daughter during Nights of Naberus 2020 for 50  Mother Tokens each.

Notes

• Perform a bullet jump (Ctrl  + Spacebar ) or double jump (Spacebar  x2) then perform a ground slam (look downward and press E ) to create a wave of energy that applies a  Lifted effect to nearby enemies.
• The wave is ~5 meters wide, and will travel forward for ~31 meters, going over terrain elevations and passing through enemies, dealing 10  Blast Damage, before exploding at the end and dealing  Viral damage in a ~7 meters radius. Enemies hit by the wave will tumble backward and be suspended in the air similarly to  Rhino Stomp for a short time period, up to 4 seconds with a full set.
  • This wave has a very high chance for  Viral procs to occur, if not 100%, but also has a chance to proc your weapon's elemental effects as well.
• Trading tax scales with rank:
  • Rank 0: 100,000 Credits 100,000
  • Rank 1: 300,000 Credits 300,000
  • Rank 2: 600,000 Credits 600,000
  • Max Rank: 1,000,000 Credits 1,000,000

Patch History

Update 24.6 (2019-04-04)

• Replaced Arcane Blueprints with Arcanes in Operational Supply Offerings meaning that Arcanes no longer need to be built.
  • Players that had previous Arcane Blueprints in Inventory were crafted on patch login for free.

Update 22.19 (2018-05-02)

• Fixed Exodia Epidemic ground slam wave counting towards finisher damage instead of the intended explosion damage.

Update 22.4 (2017-11-23)

• Fixes towards Exodia Epidemic causing enemies to get knocked down twice and remain permanently inactive.

Hotfix 22.3.5 (2017-11-20)

• Fixed Zaws with Covert Lethality and Exodia Epidemic unintentionally insta killing enemies. Covert Lethality does not carry over to projectiles or other effects created by weapons, and only applies on Melee finishers.
