The Tenora is Octavia's signature assault rifle, which features two different firing modes: a standard full-auto fire mode that increases fire rate and accuracy the longer it shoots, and an Alternate Fire mode that fires a single powerful, charged shot. Has a chance to instantly refill magazine after a headshot charged shot kill while being used by Octavia.
Characteristics[edit | edit source]
This weapon deals primarily Puncture damage.
Advantages:
- Primary Fire shoots bullets in a fully automatic fashion.
- High
Puncture damage – effective against armor.
- Near-equal physical damage distribution – effective against all factions, Sentient fighters and Shadow Stalker.
- Tied with
Baza Prime and full-auto
Fulmin for the third highest critical chance of all fully automatic rifles, behind
Prisma Gorgon/
Soma/
Soma Prime/
Telos Boltor, and
Battacor/
Acceltra.
- Good status chance.
- Fire Rate and accuracy increase as the trigger is held, with near-perfect accuracy once spool-up is complete.
- High
- Alternate Fire charges a single, powerful shot.
- Tied with Battacor for the second highest critical chance of all charge-up rifles, behind
Quellor.
- Tied with Battacor and
Stahlta for the highest critical multiplier of all charge-up rifles.
- Charge is automatic and does not need to be held down.
- Pinpoint accurate.
- Innate 1 meter punch through.
- Tied with Battacor for the second highest critical chance of all charge-up rifles, behind
- High magazine size and ammo reserves.
Disadvantages:
- Primary Fire:
- Low base damage; very reliant on its critical multiplier potential.
- Ill-suited against Object-based health as it nullifies any critical hits.
- Requires a spool-up of 9 shots before optimal fire rate and accuracy are achieved.
- Low base damage; very reliant on its critical multiplier potential.
- Alternate Fire:
- Low
Impact and
Slash damage – less effective against shields and health.
- Uses 10 ammo per shot.
- The weapon fires as soon as it has reached a full charge, which can lead to premature firing.
- Low status chance.
- Low
- Poor ammo efficiency.
- Slow reload speed.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- When used by
Octavia, headshot kills with the Alternate Fire have a 20% chance to instantly refill magazine.
- No weak spots other than actual heads will trigger this effect.
- Tenora's charge shot deals 24 damage for every 1 ammo consumed (a total of 240 damage with max consumption of 10 ammo) per shot. This is of equal ammo efficiency to its primary fire.
Heavy Caliber's accuracy penalty will be very apparent even at full spool.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Tenora is the Catalan word for Tenor, one of the highest classical male singing voices.
- Tenora may also be a reference to a type of Catalan Shawm, an oboe-like woodwind instrument typically used in Catalonia.
- While there are other weapons with spool-up time, like the
Soma and
Gorgon series, its accuracy being increased the longer the trigger is held is currently unique to the Tenora.
Bugs[edit | edit source]
- Spent ammo cartridges will always use the default color scheme of the weapon.
- Riven mods that increase recoil above 55% appear to drain 11 ammo instead of 10 on charged shots.
