CODEX

Overwhelm hostiles with this jet-powered sickle and razor-chain weapon. Charged strikes ignite an explosive blast at range.

The Jat Kusar is a  Grineer Blade and Whip with rocket boosters attached, giving it innate  Heat damage. This weapon was originally based off a fan design which Digital Extremes incorporated into the game.

Characteristics

• This weapon deals primarily  Heat damage.
• Heavy Attacks cause an explosion dealing 218  Blast damage.
  • This explosion is treated as Slam Radial Damage and its damage can only be increased with  Seismic Wave.
• Slam Radial Damage deals  Heat damage.
• Two innate polarities.
• Stance slot has polarity, matching  Defiled Snapdragon and  Tainted Hydra (Conclave only) stance.

Advantages over other Melee weapons (excluding modular weapons):

• Normal Attack (wiki attack index 1)
  • Very high crit chance (35.00%)
  • Above average total damage (218)
  • High crit multiplier (2.50x)

Disadvantages over other Melee weapons (excluding modular weapons):

• Normal Attack (wiki attack index 1)
  • Very low attack speed (0.83x animation speed)
  • Low status chance (19.00%)
  • Below average disposition (●●●●○ (1.20x))

See WARFRAME Wiki:Stat Comparison/Percentiles for more details.

Acquisition

The Jat Kusar's blueprint can be researched from the Chem Lab in the dojo.

A "thrust attack" is a melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the tip of the blade (the rounded edge of obround melee hitbox). A "360/spin attack" is a sliding sweep attack that hits targets around the player (not always in a 360° arc, but is usually above 180°). A "direct slam attack" is a melee strike that hits a single target at the epicenter of a slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod. A "radial slam attack" is the area-of-effect component of the melee slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod. A "ranged attack" is any melee attack that launches a ranged projectile or can hit targets beyond melee range. View Full Legend Average Damage Multiplier per second only applies to single-target DPS calculations. Note that hits marked as "Radial Slam Attack" will not apply at the epicenter of a single target hit so these will not be accounted for in Avg Dmg Multi/s calculations. Combo animation lengths are approximate and are only accurate within a few tenths of a second. Each tile marking in stance preview gifs are 2m apart. Combos labeled with an asterisk (*) are shared between weapons within the same weapon type.

Notes

• The Jat Kusar, unlike other Blade and Whips, does not ragdoll and pull enemies towards the player upon landing the fourth attack of the stanceless/Claws of the Drake combo or Heavy Attacks.
  • Instead, Heavy Attack direct hits only knock enemies down, while the explosions ragdoll and throw the enemy a small distance straight up into the air.
• The Slam Radial Damage has a small chance to inflict the  Heat status effect, but is unaffected by status chance mods.

Trivia

• The Jat Kusar is the winning entry of Digital Extremes' The Best Defense Melee Creation Contest. It was designed by Silverbones, who also created the  Silva & Aegis, another  Heat-based melee weapon.
  • In the Jat Kusar's concept art, Silverbones refers to the weapon as a "Plasma Kusarigama".

Bugs

• The explosion caused by Heavy Attacks is not centered on the visual explosion. It is instead centered on the player, like a Slam Attack.
