Understand Ignis Wraith
Useful when…
- Use its continuous stream for sustained hit-scan Heat damage.
- Consider it over the standard Ignis if you value the listed 200-round magazine, 1.7-second reload, and higher attack stats.
Attack profile
Its single Normal Attack is held and hit-scan, with listed speed 8. It deals 35 Heat damage and has 17% critical chance, a 2.5x critical multiplier, and 29% status chance. These attack properties describe the regular stream; there is no separate alternate attack listed.
Handling and investment
Ignis Wraith holds 200 rounds and reloads in 1.7 seconds. It has a rank cap of 30 and no innate polarity listed. Its construction recipe includes three Argon Crystals, five Chem Components, Ferrite, Rubedo, and a blueprint; its listed build time is 24 hours. These are crafting inputs, not a statement about current acquisition availability. Since its damage remains entirely Heat in the listed attack, decide whether you want to invest in this profile before spending resources on the build.
Alternatives and caveats
Kuva Quartakk has distinct handling: it fires automatically from the hip and retains its four simultaneous shots when aimed. Prisma Gorgon is described as a Gorgon variant with enhanced mechanics, but the comparison does not specify those mechanics. Ruvox is a fist weapon whose Incarnon form uses Heavy Slams to impale nearby enemies, so it is a different weapon category and use pattern rather than a direct stream-rifle substitute.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Keeps a pure Heat stream profile rather than adding a second mode or listed damage type.
- Its listed magazine and reload improve on standard Ignis, but its crafting recipe includes three Argon Crystals and five Chem Components.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Do not claim Ignis Wraith has an alternate fire mode; only one attack is listed.
- Do not infer specific mechanics for Prisma Gorgon from the broad comparison description.
