Flawed Bane of Infested GUIDE
Understand Flawed Bane of Infested
Useful when…
- Low-drain rifle setup focused on Infested.
Effect and fit
It grants ×1.03 damage to Infested at rank 0, ×1.08 at rank 2, and ×1.1 at rank 3. It is a Flawed rifle mod with Madurai polarity and base drain 2.
Ranking and alternatives
The three listed steps cost 20, 40, and 80 Endo; their Credit costs are 966, 1,932, and 3,864. Standard Bane of Infested reaches ×1.3 at rank 5 with base drain 4, while Primed Bane reaches ×1.55 at its listed maximum. Those versions are listed as incompatible with this Flawed mod.
Limitations
The bonus is specific to Infested targets. Do not add this alongside its listed standard or Primed versions. Aerial Ace instead refreshes double jumps while airborne on kill and uses an Exilus slot, so it does not replace this standard-slot faction bonus.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Lower drain than the standard version, but a lower maximum faction bonus.
- It is useful only against Infested.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Expecting the bonus to apply to non-Infested enemies.
- Trying to equip it alongside its incompatible standard or Primed versions.
- Assuming the mod reaches the standard version’s maximum bonus.
