Notes

• As Strain Consume's health restoration is percentage-based, Warframes with high Health pools (such as  Inaros) will see a greater benefit from this mod.
• Assuming all Strain Mods are fully ranked and equipped, a Warframe can recover up to 32% of their maximum health should the maggots die within range.

Bugs

• The mod description when viewing the mod via an item link states "Increased Pistol Ammo recovery." which does not apply to this mod.
