Notes

• Virulent Scourge is additive with similar mods. For example, a  Galatine with a max rank Virulent Scourge and  Melee Prowess will have a 20% × (1 + 60% + 90%) = 50% status chance.
• Can be stacked with  Melee Prowess,  Volcanic Edge,  Vicious Frost,  Voltaic Strike, and  Drifting Contact for a 370% increase in Status Chance. On weapons with at least 22% base Status Chance, this allows them to achieve a total Status Chance value of 100%, allowing every strike to deal a Status Effect .
  •  Weeping Wounds can further increase the Status Chance depending on the Melee Combo Counter

Trivia

• All of the dual-stat event mods for melee weapons have names starting with the letter V.
• While the mod increases  Toxin damage, the image shows a  Corrosive proc being inflicted.
