Virtuos Shadow is an Arcane Enhancement for Operator Amps that grants a 40% chance to increase Critical Chance for 12 seconds on headshots.

Stats

Rank	Critical Chance Bonus
0	+15%
1	+30%
2	+45%
3	+60%

Acquisition

Can be bought from The Quills for 10000 Standing 10000 upon reaching the rank of Architect.

Notes

• The increase in critical hit chance is multiplicative. As an example, using a Raplak Prism with a Lohrin Brace and Rank 3  Virtuos Shadow will result in:
  • CritChance = (38% + 12%) × (1 + 0.6) = 80%
• Effect can be triggered by Void Slinging into an Eidolon's head.
  • Works well with  Magus Cloud

Patch History

Update 31.6 (2022-06-09)

ARCANE STAT CHANGES PER RANK

We’ve adjusted the values of older Arcanes with the goal of making lower rank Arcanes more viable, and more desirable while collecting as a result. In short, there are three stats that each Arcane tends to have (speaking generally) -- for example, a percentage chance, a stat buff, and the duration of the buff.

Certain Arcanes increase all of these stats per rank (making them scale exponentially), but we are changing it so that only one stat is affected by rank (making it scale linearly). The other stats will now be at the max-rank value regardless of the Arcane Rank, thereby buffing lower-rank Arcanes as a result.
