Understand Prisma Angstrum
Useful when…
- Use the charged rocket when its impact and explosion components suit your needs.
- Account for the explosion's listed falloff and the one-round magazine.
Normal rocket and explosion
The Single Rocket Impact is a projectile with a listed 0.2-second charge time and deals 200 Blast. The separate Single Rocket Explosion deals 250 Blast and has falloff from 0 to 3.6 with a 40% reduction. The listed 450 Blast sum combines these separate impact and explosion components; the explosion's damage falls off as indicated. Both list 18% critical chance, a 2.2× critical multiplier, and 26% status chance.
Incarnon mode and handling
The separately listed Incarnon Form attack is a projectile dealing 50 Heat, with 26% critical chance, a 2.2× critical multiplier, and 20% status chance. Its listed projectile speed and flight value are 80. The weapon has a one-round magazine, 1.8-second reload, and listed Vazarin polarity. Its description says the refined Angstrum features boosted charge and reload speeds, without giving comparative numerical values.
Other sidearm patterns
Tenet Spirex fires rail-slugs and speeds reload on headshots. Velox is described as a high-fire-rate sidearm with ammo efficiency and rapid reload when emptied, with more ammo efficiency for Protea. Akarius fires seeking rockets that arm after traveling a safe distance. These are distinct patterns and character conditions from Prisma Angstrum's charged rocket.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The normal rocket's listed Blast damage comes from separate impact and explosion components; the explosion has falloff.
- The one-round magazine and 1.8-second reload shape repeat firing; the Incarnon projectile has a separate attack profile.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Treating the 450 Blast sum as a single component or overlooking explosion falloff.
- Applying the normal rocket's critical and status values to the Incarnon Form attack.
