The uniquely styled Wraith Twin Vipers are a powerful variation on the standard akimbo machine-pistols.

The Twin Vipers Wraith are the Wraith versions of the Twin Vipers that have higher damage with a slight boost to Impact damage in exchange for lower Slash damage.

This weapon deals primarily Impact damage.

Advantages:

Good critical chance.
Innate polarity.

Disadvantages:

Low Puncture and Slash damage – less effective against armor and health.
Low status chance.
Low accuracy at anything past close range.
Extremely ammo inefficient.
- Very fast fire rate results in frequent reloading.

This weapon was first obtainable by scoring at least 100 points in The Cicero Crisis event, complete with a free weapon slot and pre-installed Orokin Catalyst.

The Twin Vipers Wraith was awarded again from an alert in The Proxy Rebellion Bonus Weekend.

The blueprint and parts were formerly a reward from the Ninth Season of Sorties; they can now be found as an Invasion reward. All components can be traded, although players must have a Mastery Rank of at least 7 to acquire the blueprint.

Notes[]

When compared to the single Viper, the Twin and Wraith Twin Vipers have much less accuracy and ammo efficiency. Both variants are more efficient against close range targets, but the normal Viper has decent accuracy and can use the Stinging Truth mod, granting the Viper a similar magazine size.

Tips[]

Using the Pistol Ammo Mutation mod will keep this gun from running dry for a longer period of time.
Alternative for ammo mutation with high critical chance is Creeping Bullseye.
Due to its decent critical potential, the Wraith Twin Vipers become a viable candidate for Critical builds; adding Pistol Gambit, Target Cracker, Barrel Diffusion and Lethal Torrent, coupled with its fast fire rate, can release a powerful blast of bullets in a short amount of time.
When building with this weapon, it is recommended to install at least one Elemental mod or the Pistol Ammo Mutation, due to its initial polarity.

Trivia[]

This is the third Wraith weapon released, and the first secondary Wraith weapon.
The single version is available from Baro Ki`Teer, from time to time.
This is the first dual secondary that has been tweaked (via either Prime, Wraith, Vandal) beyond its standard construction.
The patterns and color selection of the weapons share a very similar appearance to the Rubedo-Skinned version, which was the rarest possible Rubedo skin available.
