CODEX

On Heavy Slide Attack this Corpus scythe launches a spinning energy disk that ricochets throughout the battlefield. Its lifetime is derived from the size of the Combo Counter. Note: The Granum Attaché system pauses the combo timer when holstered.

Tenet Grigori is a unique Tenet Scythe whose Heavy Slide Attacks launch a short-ranged energy disk. The second attack in a Heavy Attack Combo will also launch an energy disk.

Characteristics[]

This weapon primarily deals Slash damage.
Heavy slide attack releases a spinning energy disk that travels up to 10 meters based on combo multiplier, has infinite punch through against bodies, and ricochets off surfaces.
- The projectile is unaffected by base damage mods or arcanes (e.g., Pressure Point, Arcane Fury). However, it's affected by universal base damage sources like Arcane Arachne, Vigorous Swap, Holster Amp, Vex Armor, Toxin Elemental Ward, and Amp.
- Condition Overload is multiplicative to base damage on the disk.
Holstering pauses combo duration.
- Combo resets when used with certain Warframe abilities and Exalted Weapons (see Notes below).
Innate polarity.
Comes with an additional bonus Impact, Heat, Cold, Electricity, Toxin, Magnetic, or Radiation damage, based on the Sister's progenitor Warframe, which increases the listed base damage of the weapon by 25%-60%.
- Valence Fusion can optionally change the resulting output damage type, and can upgrade the bonus increase (up to 60%).
Polarizing the weapon increases its max rank by 2, capping at rank 40 after 5 polarizations, granting the weapon additional mod capacity.
Unlike Tenet weapons directly acquired from Sisters, the listed Mastery Rank requirement is enforced.

Advantages over other Melee weapons (excluding modular weapons):

Tied with Anku, Ether Reaper, and Reaper Prime for the fastest attack speed of all scythes.
Highest blocking angle of all scythes.

Melee Attack Explanations
A "sweep attack" is an arcing melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the edge of the blade (the length of obround melee hitbox). A "thrust attack" is a melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the tip of the blade (the rounded edge of obround melee hitbox). A "360/spin attack" is a sliding sweep attack that hits targets around the player (not always in a 360° arc, but is usually above 180°). A "direct slam attack" is a melee strike that hits a single target at the epicenter of a slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod. A "radial slam attack" is the area-of-effect component of the melee slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod. A "ranged attack" is any melee attack that launches a ranged projectile or can hit targets beyond melee range.

Average Damage Multiplier per second only applies to single-target DPS calculations.
Note that hits marked as "Radial Slam Attack" will not apply at the epicenter of a single target hit so these will not be accounted for in Avg Dmg Multi/s calculations.
Combo animation lengths are approximate and are only accurate within a few tenths of a second.
Each tile marking in stance preview gifs are 2m apart.
Combos labeled with an asterisk (*) are shared between weapons within the same weapon type.

Tips[]

The easy grouping with good power strength also allows for quick increase of combo duration, which is required for the projectile to last longer.
- Despite the implications, less useful against lines of enemies as the projectile will strike and bounce away, often only hitting enemies one time though with high damage due to its reliance on heavy attacks which have powerful mods like Sacrificial Steel to double the critical chance.
Relentless Combination can be used to quickly increase the combo duration against groups, due to the slash weighting of the weapon and good status chance.
Combo Efficiency mods such as Reflex Coil reduces the amount of combo spent when deploying the disc, allowing the user to regain their combo multiplier faster, and with fewer hits required.
Jet Stream can significantly boost the projectile speed of the disc, making it travel further even with no active combo count.
- In addition, the tap function of Zephyr's Airburst can cluster enemies to hit most of them at once, or into nearby Tornadoes for even greater effect.
Projectile will be pulled into Magnetize, shredding enemies inside until the duration expires, offering excellent synergy.
The Grigori's ability to maintain an Combo Multiplier indefinitely when holstered is useful for unveiling Riven Mods whose challenge involves maintaining the Combo Multiplier at certain values.
