CharacteristicsEdit

This weapon deals primarily  Slash damage.

Advantages

• Second highest base damage of all non-Archwing weapons, behind Exergis.
  • Highest Slash damage of all weapons in the game – effective against health.
• Very high status chance.
  • Can achieve 100% status per pellet with  Scattering Inferno,  Frigid Blast,  Shell Shock, and  Toxic Barrage.
• Unique trigger type allows for two rapid shots against tough targets, or careful shot management against many weaker opponents. First shot on button press, the second on button release.
• Efficient ammunition economy.
• Fairly fast reload speed.
• Innate and polarities.

Disadvantages

• Low Impact and Puncture damage – less effective against shields and armor.
• Has linear damage falloff from 100% to 51.28% from 10m to 20m target distance (distances are affected projectile flight speed).
• Low critical chance.
• Before 100% status chance, the listed status chance is the base chance per shot that at least one pellet will proc a status; the actual base status chance per pellet is ~4.36%.
• Inefficient against groups, unless using Punch Through mods.
• Extremely low magazine size of just two rounds; requires frequent reloading.

TipsEdit

• Because of the mechanics of shotgun status chance, reaching 100% status chance results in many more status effects than 90% or even 99% would.
  • As mentioned above, the Tigris Prime can achieve 100% status chance with a combination of  Toxic Barrage,  Frigid Blast,  Shell Shock, and  Scattering Inferno.
• Due to the weapon's low magazine size and tight spread, consider using  Seeking Force and/or  Seeking Fury in order to deal with large groups more effectively.
•  Chilling Reload can also help to speed up the weapon's frequent reloads.
• All Tigris variants can reach 4 shells in the magazine by combining a max rank  Ammo Stock with a rank 1  Burdened Magazine.
  • Due to rounding, increasing Burdened Magazine to a higher level will never give any more than 4 shells, but it will still increase the reload speed penalty.
• Aiming down sights will increase weapon accuracy and decrease shotgun spread, making the Tigris more effective at medium ranges.
