Artax GUIDE
Understand Artax
Useful when…
- Review its listed beam handling, Cold damage, and status chance.
Attack and handling
Artax's normal attack is hit-scan, listed at speed 16.67, and deals 5 Cold damage. The weapon has a held trigger, 100% listed accuracy, a 100-round magazine, and a 1.5-second reload. Its attack has 2% critical chance, a 1.5× critical multiplier, and 35% status chance.
Other companion weapon profiles
Verglas is described as an icy beam weapon for Nautilus, but its comparison entry supplies no attack details for a full comparison. Akaten is a Hound melee weapon described as dealing Puncture and Slash damage, a different weapon and companion profile.
Description and listed mechanics
The description says Artax freezes targets, while its detailed profile lists Cold damage and status chance. No freeze duration or separate control mechanics are provided.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The detailed attack lists 5 Cold damage and a 35% status chance.
- The freeze description gives no duration or quantified control behavior.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Do not treat 35% status chance as a guaranteed freeze.
