Players must have a Mastery Rank of at least 8 to acquire any Syndicate melee weapon, either through trading or through the Syndicates themselves.

Notes

The Telos Boltace confers two advantages when equipped:

Mobility

20% boosts to Bullet Jump velocity, Aim Glide duration, and Wall Latch duration.
- Melee weapon does not need to be out to benefit (not tested in Conclave).
- In Conclave, only the Aim Glide and Wall Latch bonuses take effect.

Slide Attacks

An initial slide attack will create a vortex of 14 meters in radius (not affected by (Primed) Reach).
- Enemies caught within the vortex are drawn in and staggered.
A second slide attack, done during the vortex's cooldown, will disperse the vortex and ragdoll affected enemies away with a radial blast.
The vortex and radial blast have cooldowns of 8 and 6 seconds respectively; within said times any other slide attacks will act as normal melee slides.

Tips

The Telos Boltace's high slide damage makes Maiming Strike ideal in enhancing its damage.
The innate vortex on slide attacks makes it ideal for crowd control and damaging enemies with AoE attacks (such as Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist., Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist., and Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. procs).
