An instrument of unrelenting harm. If Lesion tastes blood, it becomes invigorated with faster Attack Speed and increased DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin Damage.

The Lesion is an Infested polearm based on the Tipedo Tipedo. Upon inflicting a Status Effect on its target, the Lesion gains bonuses to its Attack Speed and bonus DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin damage, which coupled with its primary focus on DmgSlashSmall64 Slash damage makes it a dangerous weapon against lightly-armored targets.

Notes[]

  • On dealing status procs on an enemy, the Lesion has a unique feature whereby it gains 15% additional attack speed for 6 seconds, as well as 100% DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin damage.
    • Attack speed buff is additive to attack speed mods on the weapon.
    • This buff does not stack with repeated status procs.
    • This buff duration is not refreshed upon inflicting procs while the buff is still active. The buff must first expire before another instance can be activated.
    • The DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin damage is additive to other elemental mods on the weapon.
    • Due to a bug, this passive is unlikely to work if you are not the host of the mission.

Tips[]

  • The weapon's DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin buff synergizes well with DmgCorrosiveSmall64 Corrosive, DmgGasSmall64 Gas, or DmgViralSmall64 Viral builds.
  • Synergizes well with SarynIcon272 Saryn: her passive increases the duration of status procs by 25% (adding to their total damage) and ToxicLash130xWhite Toxic Lash guarantees procs along with adding even more DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin damage.
  • The attack speed buff along with the weapon's high status chance allows the Lesion to proc multiple statuses quickly, good for limited crowd control and/or Mod TT 20px Condition Overload.

Trivia[]

  • A Lesion is any abnormal damage or change in an organism's tissue, usually the result of injury or disease. It is derived from the Latin word laesio, which simply means "injury".
  • Though looking quite similar in design and length to the Tipedo Tipedo,the Lesion's crafting component, the Lesion is labelled as a polearm while the Tipedo is a staff.
  • The Lesion has a non-static model; the "jaws" of the weapon close when not actively equipped, will open upon being wielded, and without a Stance equipped, the jaws will visibly "bite" on the thrusting second and fourth strikes of the combo.
