Notes

• Magazine requirement is based on the base Magazine Capacity of a gun. If the magazine is increased above 6 on a weapon that has below 6, it will still not be usable on that gun. However, if a gun has a magazine above 6 and it is reduced below that, the mod will still function.
• Cannot be equipped on Exalted Weapons, and has no effect on Continuous Weapons even if they meet the magazine requirements.
• Does not have an effect on any Incarnon fire modes, whether on the last shot in their magazine or if activated with one bullet left in the primary mode's magazine.
• Damage stacks multiplicatively with  Hornet Strike, and any area damage the weapon may have is also affected.
• Synth Charge's damage applies to the following weapons' Alternate Fires or reload mechanics:
  •  Dual Toxocyst's Frenzy passive if triggered on the last shot, buffing all subsequent 'free' shots until Frenzy expires.
  •  Fusilai's Alternate Fire if used with the last three knives in the magazine, affecting all knives thrown.
  •  Catabolyst's reload grenade, making it a partial exception to the Continuous Weapon restriction above.
  •  Cantare's reload recall of all thrown rounds, provided all six rounds have been thrown out.
  •  Akmagnus Prime's Chamber Cascade passive if triggered on the last shot, buffing all subsequent 'free' shots until Chamber Cascade expires

Bugs

• Synth Charge can be equipped on the  Kulstar, despite having a magazine capacity of 3.

Patch History

Update 33.0 (2023-04-26)

• Changed the Synth Charge Mod to now apply to the following weapons:
  • Sepulcrum
    • The damage bonus for Synth Charge does not apply to its alt-fire, as it uses the entire magazine in one shot.
  • Pyrana
  • Pyrana Prime
  • Kuva Brakk
  • Zakti Prime
  • Tenet Detron

Update 32.3 (2023-02-15)

• Changed Synth Charge’s bonus damage on final shot applying to the Tenet Plinx’s and the Azima’s alt-fire.
  • Synth Charge is only intended to apply to the last shot in a weapons magazine, but the Alt-fire on both the Tenet Plinx and the Azima were receiving the damage bonus from Synth Charge on the entire magazine. Synth Charge should only apply to the final shot in a magazine of multiple rounds, and not to the entire magazine being dispelled in one shot.

Hotfix 31.5.5 (2022-05-03)

• Fixed Synth Charge’s effects applying to the Laetum’s Incarnon Transmutation by 200% for the full duration if you transmute it with only one bullet left in the magazine.
