Amalgam Barrel Diffusion

Pistol multishot and dodge-speed mod

Released Mar 8, 2019

Amalgam Barrel Diffusion adds pistol multishot and dodge speed. Consider it when you want both listed benefits and can spare the capacity for a high-drain standard-slot mod.

Amalgam Barrel Diffusion GUIDE

Understand Amalgam Barrel Diffusion

Useful when…

  • Increase pistol multishot.
  • Increase dodge speed while using a pistol build.

Effects and compatibility

At maximum rank, the mod provides +110% Multishot and +60% Dodge Speed. It fits pistols in a standard slot, has Madurai polarity, and has base drain 10. It is incompatible with Barrel Diffusion, Flawed Barrel Diffusion, and Galvanized Diffusion.

Rank investment

The mod starts at +18% Multishot and +10% Dodge Speed at rank 0, reaches +73% and +40% at rank 3, and tops out at rank 5. The final rank step costs 480 Endo and 23,184 credits. Rank it for the multishot and dodge benefits you need, while accounting for its base drain 10.

Compare by trigger and cost

Barrel Diffusion offers +120% Multishot without the listed dodge bonus, while Galvanized Diffusion has +110% Multishot and adds a kill-triggered multishot bonus that stacks up to four times. Flawed Barrel Diffusion is a lower-rank, lower-drain option with +40% Multishot. These have distinct effects and are explicitly incompatible with Amalgam Barrel Diffusion, so compare the full effect and drain before choosing one.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • The mod has base drain 10 for a combined multishot and dodge-speed benefit.
  • It cannot be equipped alongside three named Barrel Diffusion variants.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Attempting to combine it with Barrel Diffusion, Flawed Barrel Diffusion, or Galvanized Diffusion.
  • Treating the kill-triggered effect on Galvanized Diffusion as part of Amalgam Barrel Diffusion.
