Acquisition[]
The Stinger is automatically acquired upon obtaining Djinn. Note that this weapon also takes up one Companion inventory slot.
Notes[]
- Similar to the Acrid, Stinger's projectiles will deal guaranteed 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, Bolto, Akbolto and Acrid), though deviation possibly starts at a much closer distance for the Stinger.
- Ammo Drum has no effect on the Stinger because it does not have a maximum ammunition.
- 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.
Patch History[]
Update 37.0 (2024-10-02)
- Rebalance of Sentinel weapons
The Origin system never stops developing the most exotic and destructive weapons known to Tenno-kind, and the weapons mounted to our Sentinels are no exception. The gap between the top and the bottom has gotten wider than we would like to see, so please enjoy these changes bringing up some of the weaker weapons. Not all weapons will focus on damage, some will get new utility features instead.
- Stinger
- Previously: Dart gun that always applies Toxin status on impact (Damage 15, Status 5%, Fire Rate 3.3, Magazine 4/Reload 1.2, Critical 2.5%/1.5x)
