| Rank | Slash Damage | Puncture Damage | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | +15% | +20% | 6 |
| 1 | +30% | +40% | 7 |
| 2 | +45% | +60% | 8 |
| 3 | +60% | +80% | 9 |
NotesEdit
- Stacks with Sundering Strike and Auger Strike for a maximum of 290% Puncture damage, or Jagged Edge and Buzz Kill for a maximum of 270% Slash damage.
- Endura, Okina, Dehtat, Mios, Dual Raza and Valkyr Talons make the best use of this mod, as their damages are relatively balanced between Slash and Puncture.
TriviaEdit
- Previously, the in-game description of this mod incorrectly stated:
"Convert 15% of energy used to Bonus Damage on next Melee Attack. Store up to +0.2 Bonus Damage"
This was fixed in Update 9.3. - Rending Strike used to give a bonus of 60% more Charge damage alongside its Puncture damage, but since Update 13.0 removed Charge attacks, it has been replaced with Slash damage.
- This is the only physical damage mod that increases two damage types instead of one.

Jagged edge is now Slashing damage. Same as Rupture was accidentally written as "+x% puncture" when it was supposed to be impact. -
The console version (PS4) still does charge damage
