Infested Weapons

CONCLAVE (PvP)

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

This weapon can be sold for 6,000‍ 6,000.

Characteristics Edit

This weapon deals primarily Slash damage.

Advantages

• Second highest damage of all polearms, behind Kesheg.
  • High  Slash damage – effective against health.
• Highest status chance of all polearms.
• Medium range attacks with a wide radius.
• Has an innate attack speed increase and bonus Toxin damage upon landing a successful attack with a status proc.
  • Additional Toxin damage added will combine with any primary elements (or secondary elements with Toxin) on the weapon.
• Stance slot has polarity, matches Shimmering Blight stance.
• Has a polarity.

Disadvantages

• Low Impact and Puncture damage – less effective against shields and armor.
• Very low critical chance.
• Shortest attack range of all polearms.
• Very small slam attack radius.

NotesEdit

• 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% 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 Toxin damage is additive to other elemental mods on the weapon.

TipsEdit

• Can reach 100% status with Volcanic Edge, Vicious Frost, Voltaic Strike, and Virulent Scourge making it a strong contender for Condition Overload.
• The weapon's Toxin buff synergizes well with Corrosive, Gas, or Viral builds.
• Synergizes well with Saryn: her passive increases the duration of status procs by 25% (adding to their total damage) and Toxic Lash guarantees procs along with adding even more 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 Condition Overload.

TriviaEdit

• 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,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.
