Characteristics

This weapon deals exclusively damage.

Advantages:

• Innate damage – effective against Sentient-type enemies.
  • Can reset any damage adaptation built up by Battalysts, Conculysts and Shadow Stalker.
  • Can damage Teralyst, Gantulyst and Hydrolyst's impervious shields.
  • Can destroy the otherwise impervious Vomvalyst's spectral form.
  • Can change Profit-Taker Orb's shield weakness.
• Shots releases 3 grenades in a burst, which explode in a 3.5 meter radius upon impact with a surface or enemy.
  • High total damage; direct impact damage of 1,000 , and radial damage of 1,400 .
• High critical chance.
• Relatively long range if aimed in an upward arc (up to ~75 meters).
• Decent energy economy.
• Slow energy consumption, consumes 10.35 energy/second at base fire rate.
• Can immediately re-enter Void Mode after the last shot of the burst is fired.
• Does not use ammo pickups; energy regenerates over time.
  • Has a 2-second delay after the weapon stops firing before regenerating energy.
    • Regenerates 30 energy per second; takes 3.33 seconds to regenerate a fully depleted energy meter.

Disadvantages:

• Innate damage – less effective against Cloned Flesh and Fossilized.
• Projectiles have travel time with arcing.
• Low status chance.
• Explosion inflicts self-stagger.
• Explosion has linear damage falloff from 100% to 70% from central impact.

Notes

• This Operator Amp component allows the Void Beam to be fired in burst mode, releasing three void grenades that detonate on impact.
• Each grenade deals damage in a 5-meter area of effect, allowing well aimed strikes to quickly strip away shields by dealing splash damage to multiple Teralyst limbs. Aiming at the lower half of the Teralyst can also clear out any Vomvalysts in the area.
• The listed energy cost is per projectile in a burst, meaning that the Granmu consumes 15 energy in a three-shot burst. The Granmu can still fire with a minimum of 5 energy, though it will only shoot 1 projectile, and having 10 energy will make it shoot two projectiles.

Patch History

Hotfix 27.2.2 (2020-03-06)
Reduced the following AoE weapons Radial Damage Falloff from central impact that were all previously 90%:

• Granmu Prism: 30%

Update 27.2 (2020-03-05)

Self Damage Changes

We are getting rid of Self Damage and replacing it with something else: instead of Self Damage, it’s now ‘Stagger’. This change completely removes the chance of killing yourself, and instead now creates scenarios where you will interrupt yourself - or ‘Stagger’ - to varying degrees if you aren’t careful.

The degrees of Self-Interrupt start with a small stumble all the way to full knockdown depending on how close you are to the center of explosion. Any Mods referring to Self Damage will be converted to acknowledge Stagger.

With this Self-Interrupt system, we have added dozens of new recovery animations that harness a ninja-like recovery experience. By pressing ‘Jump’ at the correct time, you can execute a ninja-skill-based knockdown recovery to ALL in-game knockdowns. This ninja recovery window is indicated by a glowing FX on your Warframe.

In addition to Self Damage being removed, some of the more powerful AOE weapons without Self Damage presently will have the Stagger added, but it should only be noticeable in cases of extreme inaccuracy on the player’s part. The Weapons include:

• Granmu Prism

In the original Dev Workshop, we said:
As a result of this overall systemic change, Weapons with Stagger will be getting approximately a 20% buff in Damage, with any weapons with AOE receiving a 50% Radial Damage Falloff from central impact.

This is no longer accurate after continued testing. What we are doing now is:

No damage buffs have been added, but any weapons with AOE are receiving ~20% increase in Radius. Additionally, AOE weapons are receiving a 90% Radial Damage Falloff from central impact. This means on the very outer section of the explosion Radius 10% of the Damage will be dealt. Tactics will be deadly - aim true, Tenno.

Why: Several players brought up the history of the Tonkor and we want to make sure we ship this change in a place that’s conservative in its starting point from a balance perspective. The complete removal of Self Damage does change the pace of destruction with some of the game’s most powerful weapons, so we want to make sure we can iterate upwardly instead of releasing a bonanza of explosions with no other choices.
