Notes

• Stacks with ( Primed)  Fury,  Gladiator Vice, and 3-stack for a total of (3.5875x) 3.15x attack speed.

Trivia

• Unlike most mods, the picture shows an  Excalibur wearing the Pendragon helmet, his Immortal Skin, as well as a different color scheme. This is a rare instance of a mod depicting a non-default character loadout. The other examples are  Life Strike, Second Wind,  True Punishment,  Enduring Strike, Warrior's Grip,  Killing Blow and  Corrupt Charge, all of which are channeling mods. Coincidentally, all of said mods depict Excalibur wielding a Nikana. The only difference in each appearance (besides positioning) is the energy color used.
• As of Update 15.5 (2014-11-27), there are four new mods that also depict non-default characters. These mods are  Bore,  Piercing Caliber,  Breach Loader, and  Auger Strike, all of which depict a Nyx Warframe with her Immortal Skin and Menticide helmet.
• Prior to Update 26.0 (2019-10-31), this mod provides bonus attack speed upon Channeling.
