Saxum Thorax is a set mod that increases both the 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 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 the  Cobra & Crane,  Kogake Prime,  Prisma Obex,  Amphis,  Bo/ Bo Prime,  Broken Scepter,  Synoid Heliocor,  Jat Kittag,  Sancti Magistar and  Shaku

Bugs

• Set bonus currently does not function as advertised, instead causes all targets killed by melee attacks or statuses inflicted by melee attacks -- with the exclusion of Exalted Weapons(only Exalted Blade is currently confirmed) -- to explode on death, dealing 30% of their maximum health in 6 meters with fall off, as well as adding a chance to obtain a 30 second buff with currently unknown effects. Lifting the target does not allow any weapon type other than a melee to cause these explosions, nor is it required for the explosion.
