CODEX

Spinning attacks unleash the Stormpath, a tempest of mayhem that hurls any foes in its way

The Telos Boltace is the Arbiters of Hexis' Syndicate variant of the  Boltace. When equipped, the velocity or duration of certain maneuvers is increased, and Slide Attacks vacuum in nearby enemies.

Acquisition

• The Telos Boltace can be acquired by reaching the Rank of Maxim with the Arbiters of Hexis, and spending 125,000 Standing 125,000 to purchase. As with all Syndicate Weapons, the Telos Boltace cannot be chosen as the free offering upon ranking up to Maxim rank.
• Syndicate weapons can also be acquired via Trading, but only for unranked copies without Forma or Orokin Catalyst installed.
• Players must have a Mastery Rank of at least 11 to acquire the Telos Boltace, either through trading or through the Syndicates themselves.

Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily damage.

Advantages:

• Third highest base damage of all tonfas, behind  Kronen Prime and  Ohma.
  • High  damage – effective against armor.
• Second highest critical chance of all tonfas, behind Kronen Prime.
• Highest status chance of all tonfas.
  • Can reach 100% status chance with three of the following:  Volcanic Edge,  Vicious Frost,  Voltaic Strike, or  Virulent Scourge.
• Tied with  Kronen for the second fastest attack speed of all tonfas, behind  Kronen Prime.
• When held, the weapon provides a 20% passive boost to Bullet Jump velocity, Roll distance, Aim Glide duration, and Wall Latch duration.
• Slide attacks trigger Stormpath, creating a 14 meter vortex that pulls in and staggers enemies. A second slide attack shortly after the vortex will launch and suspend nearby enemies in a Lifted status.
• Stance slot has polarity, matching  Gemini Cross.
• Innate polarity.

Disadvantages:

• Low and damage – less effective against shields and health.

Notes

• Slide attacks trigger Stormpath, creating a 14 meter vortex that pulls in and staggers enemies.
  • Performing another slide attack within 8 seconds of triggering Stormpath will launch and suspend nearby enemies in a Lifted status. This triggers a cooldown of 6 seconds, during which slide attacks will behave as normal.
  • Vortex or launch ranges are not affected by ( Primed)  Reach.
• Holding the Telos Boltace boosts Bullet Jump velocity, Roll distance, Aim Glide duration, and Wall Latch duration by 20%.
  • In Conclave, only the Aim Glide and Wall Latch bonuses are granted.

Tips

• Stormpath and the high status chance can be put together to hit several enemies with AoE status effects, such as , , and procs.
•  Nezha can use Stormpath to drag enemies into the path of  Fire Walker to charge  Pyroclastic Flow efficiently.

Trivia

• Originally, the Telos Boltace released energy waves similar to  Exalted Blade on slide attacks.
  • The concept for the original effect was designed by player TunaMayo.
