The Kuva Kraken is the Kuva Lich variant of the Kraken burst-fire sidearm, firing rounds in bursts of three instead of two, with higher critical stats, status chance, fire rate, magazine capacity, and reload speed. The Alternate Fire allows it to eject all magazine in a single concentrated burst.

The Kuva Kraken is obtained by vanquishing a Kuva Lich who generated with one equipped. After the Lich is vanquished it will be in the player's Foundry ready to claim.
Characteristics
This weapon does primarily Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage.
Advantages:
- High Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage – effective against shields.
- High critical chance and critical multiplier.
- Very high status chance.

- Alternate Fire shoots all remaining ammunition in the magazine in a quick burst.
- Benefits from magazine increasing mods to further increase the burst's damage.
- Polarizing the weapon increases its max rank by 2, capping at rank 40 after 5 polarizations, granting the weapon additional mod capacity.

Disadvantages:
- Low Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. and Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage – less effective against armor and health.
- Linearly less efficient – sometimes a target may only die with three bullets, which requires an entire second burst to be fired.

- Kuva Kraken (Normal Attack), compared to Kraken (Normal Attack):
- Lower base damage per projectile (43.00 vs. 49.00) (excluding any Progenitor bonus)
- Higher total damage (using max +60% Progenitor bonus if applicable) (68.8 vs. 49)
- Higher base critical chance (21.00% vs. 5.00%)

- Higher Mastery Rank required (15 vs. 0)
- Lower disposition (●●●○○ (1.10x) vs. ●●●●● (1.53x))
Notes
- The Alternate Fire of the Kuva Kraken will eject all of the remaining ammunition in the magazine in a single burst.
- Because of this fact, increasing the magazine size of the weapon such as with Slip Magazine and using recoil reduction mods like Steady Hands can help to make its damage output more consistent and reliable.
- If buffed with unlimited ammo such as from the Reactant Buff, the weapon will only fire its magazine amount at a time, with small delays between each trigger pull.
- Not tradeable.
- The weapon will have a prefix of the name of the Kuva Lich it was acquired from (e.g. Odizrigg Agekk Kuva Ayanga).
- The weapon's max rank caps at 40 after 5 polarizations (max rank increases by 2 per Forma added).
- Additional polarizations can be added when the weapon reaches its new max rank at that polarization level.
- Each additional rank also gives Mastery Rank Experience, giving 4,000 points in total.
- Mod capacity scales with the additional ranks, and can reach a total of 80 at rank 40 with an Orokin Catalyst installed.
- Without an Orokin Catalyst, the max is 40. Combined with the five polarized mod slots required to reach that point, an Orokin Catalyst might not be required to finish modding the Kuva Ayanga.
- After polarizing a weapon, any additional mod capacity above 30 (60 with an Orokin Catalyst) will not take effect until the weapon's rank reaches 31 and above.
- Comes with an additional bonus damage stat, dependent on the Warframe that summoned the Lich.
