Gazal Machete

Tenno Weapons

CONCLAVE (PvP)

The Gazal Machete is a unique melee weapon that serves as a companion weapon to the Djinn sentinel. Each enemy killed will add potential Corrosive damage to Djinn's radial corrosive blast, and each consecutive cast of Fatal Attraction will buff the Gazal Machete with additional corrosive damage for a short period of time.

The Gazal Machete was added into the game in Update: The Vacuum Within. The blueprint is available through clan research in the Tenno Lab.

TriviaEdit

• The Gazal is the first weapon ingame that has specific synergistic abilities with another different item, in this case the Djinn sentinel.
• The word Gazal is the alternative spelling of Ghazal, a poetic form consisting of rhyming couplets and a refrain, with each line sharing the same meter in the Middle Eastern area.
