Gotva Prime

Status-triggered critical automatic rifle

Released Aug 25, 2023

Gotva Prime is an automatic rifle whose defining effect links status application to its next shot: after it inflicts a Status Effect, that next shot has a chance to be a Super Critical hit. Consider it when you want rapid, accurate fire and can take advantage of that conditional critical effect.

Gotva Prime GUIDE

Understand Gotva Prime

Useful when…

  • Use its automatic hit-scan attack for rapid fire at listed 100 accuracy.
  • Build around applying status effects to trigger the next-shot Super Critical chance; exact chance and effect values are not specified.

Attack and special condition

The normal attack is hit-scan automatic fire at 13.33 shots per second, dealing 25 Puncture damage per hit. It has 23% critical chance, a 2.5× critical multiplier, and 27% status chance. Its special effect says that when it inflicts a Status Effect, its next shot has a chance to be a Super Critical hit. The chance and Super Critical calculation are not specified, so neither can be quantified from these inputs.

Practical build considerations

The 27% status chance and 23% critical chance make both status application and critical-focused investment plausible, with status applications also enabling its conditional next-shot effect. Which to prioritize depends on your build; the supplied figures do not establish a final damage result. Its 84-round magazine and 2-second reload support sustained use. It requires Mastery Rank 14 and has three listed polarities: two Madurai and one Naramon.

Alternatives

Ax-52 is described with a conditional distinction between hip-fire ammo efficiency and aimed headshot critical chance. Nagantaka is a projectile crossbow with a single-bolt primary attack and a separate bolt-barrage alt-fire. These are different handling choices; their descriptions do not establish either as a direct replacement for Gotva Prime’s automatic fire and status-triggered next-shot effect.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • Its signature critical effect depends on first inflicting a Status Effect, and its chance is unspecified.
  • Mastery Rank 14 is a higher entry requirement than the listed comparison rifles.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Assuming every shot is a Super Critical hit; the effect applies a chance to the next shot after a Status Effect.
  • Treating status chance or listed critical stats as a guarantee of the special effect’s magnitude.
