Notes

• This mod cannot be equipped on shotguns, Exalted Weapons, nor the following primaries (with the hidden AOE compatibility tag):
  •  Acceltra
  •  Amprex
  •  Basmu
  •  Ignis ( Wraith)
  •  Javlok
  •  Kuva Bramma^{(Needs confirmation)}
  •  Kuva Chakkhurr^{(Needs confirmation)}
  •  Lenz
  •  Miter
  •  Ogris ( Kuva)
  •  Opticor ( Vandal)
  •  Penta ( Secura)
  •  Shedu
  •  Simulor ( Synoid)
  •  Tonkor ( Kuva)
  •  Torid
  •  Zarr
• Mutually exclusive with  Thunderbolt (cannot be equipped together).
• Though having AoE capabilities, the  Ferrox and  Scourge spearguns can equip this mod. They also have different interactions with Health orbs:
  • Primary fire's beam/projectiles and their AoE explosions will pick up orbs.
  • Secondary fire will also pick up orbs if:
    • The speargun hits the orb directly, which will make the weapon return to the player immediately, as if their timer had expired when deployed.
    • The Health orbs are within the  Scourge's radial explosion, but not the  Ferrox's AoE.
• This mod will make projectiles stop when hitting Health orbs, potentially wasting ammo. This can vary with hitscan weapons.
  • Weapons with Multishot can pick up Health orbs with just a single projectile.
• Health orbs picked up this way will trigger on-Health-pickup effects, like  Arcane Pulse,  Health Conversion and  Equilibrium.
  •  Equilibrium (including  Equinox's passive) does not scale off of the increased health gained.
    • Bonus does affect  Equilibrium's conversion on Health Orbs from dispensers in Arena gamemodes.
• Increased Health Orb Effectiveness is additive with similar increases from  Amber Archon Shard and  Restorative Bond, but multiplicative with  Dagath's Passive.
• Works across the material and Rift planes.

Tips

• Somewhat useful when paired with abilities that increase the chances of Health orbs dropping, like  Nezha's  Blazing Chakram or  Nekros'  Desecrate.
• Most useful for healing companions in conjunction with mods such as  Synth Deconstruct as they take the multiplied value of the orb as opposed to the base, and constant upkeep of  Synth Fiber. 
• Use of the mod with weapons such as, or similar to,  Komorex allows for the collection of orbs without the need of precision allowing constant regeneration of a sentinel or viable upkeep of  Health Conversion on frames that produce less health orbs or even no health orbs on average than frames mentioned above.
