CODEX

Prisma-crystal enhancement creates here a prestige instrument; a weapon capable of taking life at astonishing range with but a single pull of its exquisitely-tooled trigger.

The Prisma Grinlok is the Prisma variant of the  Grinlok semi-automatic rifle featuring higher critical chance, critical multiplier, status chance, magazine, and different damage distribution, but lower accuracy.

Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily  Slash damage.

Advantages:

• Tied with  Grinlok for the second highest base damage of all semi-automatic rifles, behind  Kuva Chakkhurr.
  • High  Slash damage and good  Impact damage; effective against health and shields.
• High critical chance.
• Second highest critical multiplier of all semi-automatic rifles, behind  Tiberon Prime.
• Second highest status chance of all semi-automatic rifles, behind  Nagantaka.
• Large magazine.
• Fairly high reload speed.
• Little to no vertical recoil.
• High accuracy.
• Very small spread.
• Excellent ammo efficiency.
• Innate polarity.
• Can equip the Grinlok-exclusive  Deadly Sequence and  Grinloked (Conclave only) mods.
