Sirocco is the Drifter's Amp that fires semi-automatic Void rounds. Uniquely has a standard reload, and pressing the reload button while halfway will immediately finish the reload and overcharge the next shot. However, it lacks an Alternate Fire function.
The Drifter acquires this weapon in The Duviri Paradox off the body of a Dax executor and serves as their sole firearm throughout Duviri. In the Origin System side, this Amp is given upon completion of The New War, complete with a free amp slot and is pre-Gilded. Additional copies of Sirocco can be bought from Cephalon Simaris for 100,000.
Characteristics[]
This weapon deals exclusively Void damage.
Advantages:
- Innate Void damage – effective against Sentient-type enemies.
- Can reset any damage adaptation built up by Battalysts, Conculysts and Shadow Stalker.
- Can damage Teralyst, Gantulyst and Hydrolyst's impervious shields.
- Can destroy the otherwise impervious Vomvalyst's spectral form.
- Can change Profit-Taker Orb's shield weakness.
- Second highest critical chance of all amps and part combinations, behind Raplak Prism+Certus Brace.
- Overcharged shots have the highest critical chance of all amps and part combinations.
- Very high status chance.
- Overcharged shots have the highest status chance of all amps and part combinations.
- Pressing the reload button while halfway through a reload, indicated by white brackets and the reticle turning yellow, will significantly increase reload speed and overcharge the next shot, dealing increased damage, critical chance, and status chance.
- Reloading can be "queued", starting the reloading process after other animations are completed.
- Will not break Void Mode during reload or when starting to reload, preserving stealth.
Disadvantages:
- Standard, non-battery reload.
- Accordingly, cannot benefit from Inner Gaze, Eternal Gaze, or Virtuos Null.
Notes[]
- Since it is Gilded upon acquisition, players can gather Mastery Rank experience and customize the Sirocco immediately.
- Players cannot provide Sirocco to The Quills for standing.
Trivia[]
- Sirocco is a strong, hot Mediterranean wind that originates in the Sahara, which can reach hurricane speeds particularly during the summer.
- Sirocco is the first Amp that is handheld rather than wrist-mounted.
