CODEX

Standard issue weapon for Djinn Sentinel. Fires poisonous projectiles.

The Stinger is the default weapon for the Djinn Sentinel. Stinger fires poisonous projectile darts at enemies in a similar manner to Acrid Acrid darts, dealing Toxin Damage Toxin damage. This weapon accepts rifle mods.

This weapon can be sold for 1,250 Credits 1,250.

Characteristics

This weapon deals Toxin Damage Toxin damage.

Advantages:

• Innate Toxin Damage Toxin damage – effective against Flesh and bypasses Shields and Proto Shields.
• Guaranteed Toxin Damage Toxin status effect.
• Fast reload speed.
• Pinpoint accuracy.

Disadvantages:

• Innate Toxin Damage Toxin damage – less effective Machinery, Robotics, and Fossilized.
  • Damage cannot be increased with Slash Damage Slash, Impact Damage Impact or Puncture Damage Puncture mods.
• Extremely low critical chance and status chance.
• Low critical multiplier.
• Low magazine size.

Acquisition

The Stinger is automatically acquired upon claiming the Djinn from the Foundry. Note that this weapon also takes up one Sentinel inventory slot.

Notes

• Similar to the Acrid Acrid, Stinger's projectiles will deal guaranteed Toxin Damage Toxin status effects no matter what elements or status chance are present on the weapon. The status chance listed in the Arsenal is the chance to proc the element the weapon is modded for.
• Projectiles curve off target at range similar to other 'bolt' weapons (Boltor Boltor, Bolto Bolto, Akbolto Akbolto and Acrid Acrid), though deviation possibly starts at a much closer distance for the Stinger.
• Ammo Drum Ammo Drum has no effect on the Stinger because it does not have a maximum ammunition.
• Terminal Velocity Terminal Velocity can be equipped on the Stinger to increase Projectile Speed.

Tips

• Using multishot mods will send multiple darts which will all have independent travel trajectories, effectively giving this weapon a "spread" shot and increase the probability of hitting the enemy.
• When facing Grineer, consider slotting in Electricity Damage Electricity damage mods to create Corrosive Damage Corrosive damage. Corrosive damage is even more effective against their armor than the base Toxin Damage Toxin damage, and can reduce their resistance to your normal attacks.
