Understand Grakata
Useful when…
- Sustain automatic hit-scan fire using its 60-round magazine.
- Consider critical-oriented investment given its 25% critical chance and 2× multiplier; the benefit depends on the rest of the build.
Fire rate and damage
The normal attack is hit-scan automatic fire at 20 shots per second. Each hit deals 4.4 Impact, 3.7 Puncture, and 2.9 Slash damage, with 25% critical chance, a 2× critical multiplier, and 20% status chance. The 60-round magazine empties quickly at that rate, while the 2.4-second reload and 28.57 listed accuracy are practical handling considerations.
Investment and access
Critical-focused upgrades are a reasonable direction to consider with 25% critical chance, but the right investment depends on your build and does not imply a final damage total. Grakata requires Mastery Rank 5 and has a 30-rank cap. No special upgrade track is listed.
Alternatives and handling differences
Coda Bubonico is identified as a shotgun and has primary fire that ramps up with continuous firing, so it is a different weapon class and firing behavior. Coda Hema is a rifle described with increased fire rate and magazine size relative to its predecessor, while Tenet Tetra has slower fire, a larger magazine, and an alternate fire that launches the entire clip as a grenade. These are comparisons of stated handling, not proof that any one is a direct substitute.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- High fire rate means the 60-round magazine is consumed quickly.
- Listed accuracy is 28.57, and reload time is 2.4 seconds.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Treating its large-magazine description as meaning the magazine lasts long at 20 shots per second.
- Ignoring accuracy and reload time when holding the trigger continuously.
