The Tysis pistol spits out caustic darts that corrode their victims from within.

The Tysis is an Infested sidearm that fires DmgCorrosiveSmall64 Corrosive darts that deals damage over time supported by its incredibly high status chance, allowing it to wear down even the heaviest of armor with ease.

Characteristics[]

Notes[]

  • The 81 DmgCorrosiveSmall64 Corrosive damage is dealt in 3 ticks of 27 damage, over the course of 2 seconds. This allows a single dart to proc multiple times.
  • Tysis needles retain their course after piercing their first target, possibly penetrating multiple targets without losing accuracy.
  • Tysis needles will be invisible if the energy color is Black, making target leading harder as you can't estimate travel speed and deviation effectively.

Tips[]

Trivia[]

  • The Tysis' needles may stretch targets if they are already pinned to the wall by another weapon's projectile (like the Boltor Boltor).
  • This is the second Infested weapon available on the Market. The first was the Mire Mire.
    • The Tysis is the first Infested sidearm to be non-clan exclusive.
  • The Tysis may derive its name from the suffix "-ptysis", which typically refers to spitting out substances (e.g. Hemoptysis would refer to spitting blood). It may also be based on Phthisis, the ancient Greek name for Consumption, AKA Tuberculosis, which was named such for "eating its victims from the inside".
  • The head of the Tysis vaguely resembles the head of a Goblin shark.
