Understand Comet Blast
Useful when…
- Use on an Archgun when increasing its Impact component is a deliberate choice.
- Compare the slot against ammunition or conditional fire-rate and reload support if those solve a more pressing need.
Effect and application
Comet Blast grants +15% Impact at rank 0, +60% at rank 3, and +90% at rank 5. It is a standard Archgun mod with Naramon polarity and base drain 2. The provided effect specifies Impact only; no status-chance bonus is listed.
Rank investment
The mod has maximum rank 5. Ranking increases the Impact bonus, with the rank 4 to 5 example costing 480 Endo and 23,184 Credits. It uses a standard slot, so invest when the additional Impact is worth giving up another Archgun option and the associated capacity.
Different Archgun needs
Ammo Chain provides +100% ammunition maximum, and Archgun Ace activates on a headshot kill to grant fire/charge rate and reload speed for 9 seconds. These are alternatives for ammunition or conditional handling support, not equivalent Impact bonuses. The Archgun Riven entry is procedural and its specific effects are unresolved, so it cannot establish a reliable comparison of stats.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The Impact bonus uses a standard slot that could serve ammunition or handling needs.
- Ranking it requires Endo and Credits; the effect listed is specifically Impact.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming Comet Blast also adds status chance; the listed bonus is Impact damage.
- Ranking it without considering the standard-slot opportunity cost.
