Understand Coda Pox
Useful when…
- Using a thrown toxin projectile with a separate listed cloud attack.
- Considering an eight-round thrown weapon with 45% listed status chance on both attack profiles.
Impact and cloud profiles
Spore Impact is a projectile attack with listed speed 30, dealing 55 Toxin damage with 10% critical chance, a 2.2× critical multiplier, and 45% status chance. Poison Cloud is a separate AoE attack, listed at one attack per second, dealing 35 Toxin damage with the same critical and status values. Its falloff is listed from 0 to 2.8 meters with 0% reduction.
Magazine and handling
Coda Pox has an eight-round magazine, a one-second reload, and a listed fire rate of 2.08. It requires Mastery Rank 17, has rank cap 40, and two Madurai polarities. Its projectile speed is listed as 30.
Other Coda sidearm behaviors
Coda Catabolyst is a held-fire corrosive pistol whose description ties three grenades to a manual empty reload. Coda Tysis is described as a pistol variant with increased damage, critical chance, critical damage, and magazine capacity. Sagek Prime’s description ties a chance for increased status on its next shot to a critical hit. These descriptions differ from Coda Pox’s thrown impact and cloud profiles.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The listed projectile speed is 30; Poison Cloud is a separate AoE profile.
- Cloud duration and repeated ticks are not specified.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Do not combine impact and cloud damage into one attack or assume repeated cloud ticks.
- Do not describe Poison Cloud as a projectile attack; it is listed as AoE.
