Saxum Thorax is a set mod that increases both the Impact Damage and status chance of a melee weapon.

When equipped simultaneously with other Saxum set mods, a set bonus is activated; Lifted enemies explode on death, dealing up to 30% of their max health as Impact Damage in a radius (up to 6m).

Notes

• The impact damage of a weapon must be at least 70% of the total for the raw damage gained from this mod to be comparable to an elemental damage counterpart like  Volcanic Edge.
• Melee weapons with high impact damage and status chance include;
  • Cobra & Crane
  • Kogake Prime
  • Prisma Obex
  • Amphis
  • Bo ( Bo Prime)
  • Broken Scepter
  • Synoid Heliocor
  • Jat Kittag
  • Sancti Magistar
  • Shaku

Bugs

• Set bonus currently does not function exactly as advertised. All melee kills will cause the target to explode, dealing a percentage of their health in a radius with fall off. This detonation effect has a cooldown before another target can be detonated. In addition, an unknown 2-second buff listed as "Saxum Set Bonus" will be activated on every melee kill. Lifted targets killed by melee will always detonate, ignoring the cooldown of the first effect.
