Notes

• Scorch is additive with similar mods. For example, a  Sicarus with a max rank Scorch and  Sure Shot will have a 6% × (1 + 60% + 90%) = 15% status chance.
• This mod can be combined with  Jolt,  Pistol Pestilence and  Frostbite to achieve a combined status chance bonus of 240%. With  Sure Shot and  Stunning Speed, this bonus can be increased to 360%. With  Saxum Spittle,  Jugulus Spines, and  Carnis Stinger, this bonus can be increased to 540%.

Trivia

• Unlike the previous Cicero and Tethra mod sets that depict Warframes already available at the time of the event, the cards from Operation Breeding Grounds depicted  Mirage, a Warframe that at the time was yet to be revealed or released.
