CODEX

When bathed in void energy and Prisma crystal, the simple Tetra becomes a beacon of style and intimidation.

The Prisma Tetra is the Prisma version of the Corpus Tetra, featuring higher damage, fire rate, status and critical stats.

Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily Puncture damage.

Advantages

• Good Puncture damage – effective against armor.
• High status chance.
• Good accuracy.
• Can use the Tetra-exclusive  Focused Acceleration and  Kinetic Ricochet mods.

Disadvantages:

• Low Impact and no Slash damage – less effective against shields and health.
• Projectiles have travel time.
• Low critical chance.
• Fourth lowest fire rate of all fully automatic rifles, after Tetra, Buzlok, and Panthera.

Comparisons:

• Prisma Tetra, compared to Tetra:
  • Higher base damage (38.0 vs. 32.0)
    • Higher Impact damage (7.6 vs. 6.4)
    • Higher Puncture damage (30.4 vs. 25.6)
  • Higher critical chance (10% vs. 4%)
  • Higher critical multiplier (2x vs. 1.5x)
  • Higher status chance (24% vs. 20%)
  • Higher fire rate (7.08 rounds/sec vs. 6.67 rounds/sec)
  • Higher Mastery Rank required (4 vs. 3)
  • Lower disposition (1.45 vs. 1.5)

Acquisition

The Prisma Tetra is potentially sold by Baro Ki'Teer in the Concourse section of the Tenno Relay for 50,000‍50,000 and 400‍400. Note that Baro Ki'Teer's stock changes with each appearance, and this weapon may not be available on a succeeding appearance.

The weapon can be traded, but only for unranked copies without Forma and Orokin Catalyst installed. The trading recipient must also have a Mastery Rank of at least 4.

Tips

• With a large portion (80%) of its total damage relying on Puncture, it is somewhat more viable to equip  Piercing Caliber than with most weapons.
  • Similarly, due to the fact that the Tetra has no Slash damage,  Sawtooth Clip and  Fanged Fusillade are completely useless.
