CharacteristicsEdit

This weapon deals primarily Radiation damage.

Advantages:

• Innate Radiation damage – effective against Alloy Armor, Robotic, and Infested Sinew.
• High Impact damage – effective against shields.
• Primary fire releases a continuous beam that can chain to 3 enemies after hitting the initial target.
  • In atmospheric mode, the beam will chain to enemies within 6 meters of initial target. In archwing mode, the max chain distance is increased to 48 meters.
  • The main beam will automatically lock onto enemies with 15 degrees of the reticule up to 20 meters away in atmospheric mode. In archwing mode, the max lock-on distance is increased to 160 meters.
  • Highest status chance of all arch-guns.
    • Can reach 100% status chance with two of the following:  Modified Munitions,  Magma Chamber,  Hypothermic Shell,  Charged Bullets, or  Contamination Casing.
• Alternate Fire charges and releases an energy grenade that explodes in an 8 meter radius on impacting a surface.
  • Innate Blast damage – effective against Machinery and Fossilized.
  • Very high critical chance and status chance.
    • Can reach 100% status chance with three of the following;  Modified Munitions,  Magma Chamber,  Hypothermic Shell,  Charged Bullets, or  Contamination Casing.
  • Above average critical multiplier.
  • Fast charge speed.
  • Pinpoint accuracy.
  • Projectile has guaranteed knockdown proc.
  • Projectile has infinite Punch Through on bodies.
  • Good ammo efficiency in Atmospheric Mode, generating relatively low cooldown for the Archgun Deployer for every second fired.
• Largest magazine size of all arch-guns in Archwing Mode.
• Innate polarity.

Disadvantages:

• Innate Radiation damage – less effective against Shielded, Infested, and Fossilized.
• No Puncture or Slash damage – less effective against armor and health.
  • Damage cannot be increased with Puncture and Slash mods.
• Primary Fire:
  • Low critical chance.
  • Lowest critical multiplier of all arch-guns.
  • Sub-par ammo efficiency in Atmospheric Mode, generating medium-high cooldown for the Archgun Deployer for every second fired.
  • Limited range of:
    • 320 meters in Archwing Mode.
    • 40 meters in Atmospheric Mode.
• Alternate Fire:
  • Innate Blast damage – less effective against Ferrite Armor.
  • Consumes 10 ammo per shot.
  • Projectile has travel time.
  • Explosion can inflict self-damage.
  • Automatically fires after 3 seconds on holding a full charge, which can lead to premature firing.
  • In Atmospheric Mode, charged shots cause a heavy recoiling effect that breaks zoom.
• Slow reload speed.

Weapon LoadoutsEdit

• See Category:Larkspur Guides for guides on how to use this weapon effectively.
• For more general help with weapons, you may wish to browse Category:Weapon Guides.

NotesEdit

• A chain will do 0.8^n(n+1)/2 times the main beams damage, where n is the chain number.
  • Headshotting the original target does not affect damage from the chain beam.
  • The beam will chain even if an incapacitated enemy/corpse is chosen as the original target.
• When used by Hildryn in Atmosphere mode, the Larkspur holds an additional 300 reserve ammo, for a total of 700.
• The recoil of the Larkspur's secondary fire is strong enough to push the Warframe back a short distance, which can knock them off cliffs or ledges if players aren't careful.
• The charge rate of the Larkspur's secondary fire can be increased with  Shell Rush.
