Biotic Rounds GUIDE
Understand Biotic Rounds
Useful when…
- AX-52 builds that regularly secure weak point kills.
- Adding temporary Viral and Magnetic Damage and Status Chance after the trigger.
Trigger, effects, and duration
A weak point kill grants +25% Viral and Magnetic Damage and Status Chance at rank 0, +100% at rank 3, and +150% at rank 5. The bonus lasts 15 seconds. A weak point hit alone does not satisfy the stated kill condition.
Weapon and slot fit
This standard Rare mod is compatible with the AX-52, has Madurai polarity, base drain 2, and maximum rank 5.
Rank investment
The rank 2 to 3 step costs 120 Endo and 5,796 Credits; rank 4 to 5 costs 480 Endo and 23,184 Credits. Higher rank increases the damage and Status Chance bonus, but the effect remains conditional on a weak point kill. Consider the higher ranks if you can consistently activate the timed benefit.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Requires a weak point kill to activate.
- Its bonus lasts only 15 seconds and is specific to the AX-52.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming a weak point hit without a kill activates the bonus.
- Treating the listed bonus as a permanent AX-52 stat increase.
