CODEX

These rare, braided throwing daggers were a favorite tool of high ranking Orokin assassins.

The Spira Prime is the Primed variant of the Spira throwing daggers. Unlike most Prime weapons they are closer to a sidegrade rather than a direct upgrade (with a statline comparable to a theoretical Kunai Prime rather than the Spira): the Spira Prime features a boost to its Fire Rate, Reload Speed and Status Effect chance in exchange for reduced damage and Critical chance.

Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily damage.

Advantages:

• High damage.
  • High damage – effective against armor.
• Can penetrate straight through enemies, allowing it to hit multiple enemies if lined up.
• Very fast reload speed.
• Can be 'fired' automatically.
• The arc of the shots enable headshots over cover.
• Silent.

Disadvantages:

• Has travel time, making it difficult to land an accurate shot at long distances.
• Shoots in an arc (height is unpredictable as it is either the top or the bottom of the sight despite having 100% accuracy), making it difficult for use at long range.
• Slow fire rate.
• Left and right handed single throws follow separate aim points, as well as wide scatter on automatic throws, make it difficult to take advantage of the weapons critical rate on head shots.

Comparisons:

• Spira Prime, compared to the Spira:
  • Lower base damage (53.0 vs. 55.0).
    • Slightly Lower damage (5.0 vs. 5.5).
    • Higher damage (43.0 vs. 33.0).
    • Lower damage (5.0 vs. 16.5).
  • Lower Critical Chance (15.0% vs. 25.0%).
  • Higher Status Chance (10.0% vs. 5.0%).
  • Faster fire rate (3.33 rounds/s vs. 2.5 rounds/s).
  • Larger magazine size (12 rounds vs. 10 rounds).
  • Faster reload speed (0.75 seconds vs. 1.0 seconds).
