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 DmgSlashSmall64 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.
  • Holstering pauses combo duration.
  • Polarizing the weapon below rank 40 increases its max rank by 2, thus for the first 5 polarizations granting the weapon additional mod capacity, and also 100 Mastery Rank experience for each new weapon rank not achieved before.
  • Comes with a random innate progenitor bonus damage increase and type, which can be DmgImpactSmall64 Impact, DmgFireSmall64 Heat, DmgColdSmall64 Cold, DmgElectricitySmall64 Electricity, DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin, DmgMagneticSmall64 Magnetic, or DmgRadiationSmall64 Radiation damage, based on Ergo Glast's stock every 4 days, 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%).
  • Zenurik Pol stance polarity matches Mod TT 20px Stalking Fan.
  • Innate Madurai Pol polarity.
  • Combo resets when used with certain Warframe abilities and Exalted Weapons (see Notes below).

Advantages over other Melee weapons (excluding modular weapons):

  • Tied with Anku Anku, EtherReaper Ether Reaper, and ReaperPrime Reaper Prime for the fastest attack speed of all scythes.
  • Highest blocking angle of all scythes.
  • Normal Attack (wiki attack index 1)
    • Above average crit chance (24.00%)
    • Above average total damage (228)
    • Above average attack speed (1.08x animation speed)
    • Very high status chance (38.00%)
  • Energy Disk (wiki attack index 2)
    • Above average crit chance (24.00%)
    • Very high total damage (4,080)
    • Above average attack range (2.50 m)
    • Very high status chance (38.00%)

Disadvantages over other Melee weapons (excluding modular weapons):

  • Normal Attack (wiki attack index 1)
    • Low disposition (●●○○○ (0.85x))
    • Very low crit multiplier (1.60x)
  • Energy Disk (wiki attack index 2)
    • Below average disposition (●●○○○ (0.85x))
    • Very low crit multiplier (1.60x)

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.
  • 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.
View Full Legend
  • 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.

Kuva/Tenet Notes[]

  • For weapons obtained from vanquishing the Kuva Lich or Sister:
    • The player does not have to meet the Mastery Rank displayed to obtain this weapon. It can simply be claimed from the foundry after the Lich/Sister carrying it has been vanquished.
    • The weapon will have a prefix of the name of the Lich/Sister it was acquired from (e.g. a Kuva Kohm might be called "Odizrigg Agekk Kuva Kohm").
  • Refraining from Mercy killing a lich candidate will remove their weapon from the pool of potential lich weapons until each has been refused, but only if the mission is completed. Weapons rejected from aborted missions will remain in the current cycle.
  • For weapons obtained from Ergo Glast's shop:
    • The player must meet the Mastery Rank displayed to obtain this weapon, as it is claimed from an NPC shop rather than the foundry.
  • The weapon's max rank caps at 40 after 5 polarizations (max rank increases by 2 per Forma added).
    • Additional polarizations can be added when the weapon reaches its new max rank at that polarization level.
    • Each additional rank also gives 100 Mastery Rank experience, giving 4,000 points in total at level 40.
    • Mod capacity scales with the additional ranks, and can reach a total of 80 at rank 40 with an Orokin Catalyst installed.
      • Without an Orokin Catalyst, the max is 40. Combined with the five polarized mod slots required to reach that point, an Orokin Catalyst might not be required for some beginner-friendly builds as they typically use less mod capacity.
      • After polarizing a weapon, any additional mod capacity above 30 (60 with an Orokin Catalyst) will not take effect until the weapon's rank reaches 31 and above.
        • Legendary Mastery Rank increases the minimum mod capacity for such weapons, without the weapon needing to be rank 31 and above. For example, Legendary 1 increases the minimum capacity to 31 (62 with an Orokin Catalyst).
  • Comes with an additional damage stat.
    • For Lich/Sister-obtained weapons this is dependent on the Warframe that summoned the Lich/Sister.
    • For Ergo Glast shop a random bonus stat will be offered for each weapon and changed every 4 days (96 hours).
    • This damage stat randomly ranges between 25%-60%. It can be upgraded up to its maximum value with Valence Fusion using another copy of the weapon.
    • This bonus stat is considered a base damage type and will be applied after all elemental mods for the purposes of elemental combinations.
  View detailed explanation about element merging  
  • Weapons with an innate primary element and a different primary element provided by the progenitor both behave as innate elements and combine with each other. They will also recombine with modded elements in the following order:
    • Mod slot 1 → Mod slot 2 → ... → Mod slot 8 → Innate DmgFireSmall64 Heat → Innate DmgColdSmall64 Cold → Innate DmgElectricitySmall64 Electricity → Innate DmgToxinSmall64 Toxin

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 ZephyrIcon272 Zephyr's Airburst130xWhite Airburst can cluster enemies to hit most of them at once, or into nearby Tornado130xWhite Tornadoes for even greater effect.
  • Projectile will be pulled into Magnetize130xWhite Magnetize, shredding enemies inside until the duration expires, offering excellent synergy.

Trivia[]

  • While sheathed, the weapon folds up into an attaché case.
  • Grigori, from the word Egrgori, is greek for "watcher".
