Notes

• The mod's effects are only visible on Status Effects with an associated duration, either increasing the duration of the associated debuff ( Corrosive,  Puncture,  Cold,  Magnetic,  Radiation, and  Viral), or the number of ticks associated with DoT effects ( Slash,  Toxin,  Gas, and  Heat).
  • This mod will not affect the duration of crowd control effects generated by Status Effects (staggers from  Impact, the panic duration of  Heat, and the stun animation caused by  Electricity).
  • Increased Status Duration will slow down the Armor Strip effect of  Heat. For example, with +100% status duration, the armor strip will occur every second instead of every half second. As a result, the full 50% armor strip will only be achieved after 4 seconds.
• Status Effects from the radial blasts of Syndicate Weapon Augments and Syndicate Weapons are not affected by this mod.
• Due to status duration always rounding down, there is no difference in performance between a 9th rank and 10th rank version of this mod without other sources of status duration (such as Saryn or Lavos).

Tips

• Lasting Sting is most beneficial on melee weapons that deal guaranteed procs on slam attacks like the  Prova and the  Dark Sword, and on weapons with high status chance like the  Ninkondi,  Serro,  Heat Sword and  Nami Solo.
• Stances that have guaranteed procs like  Tranquil Cleave and  Iron Phoenix can also benefit from this mod in extending the duration of their status effects.
• Works in conjunction with  Relentless Combination and high-slash damage melee or a stance that guarantees bleed procs (like  Vulpine Mask), as Lasting Sting increases the number of ticks bleed procs will deal, hence increasing the combo counter even more.
