Understand Flawed Heated Charge
Useful when…
- Pistol setups that want a Heat bonus from a Flawed mod.
- A temporary or constrained setup where the listed standard and Primed versions are not installed.
What does this Flawed mod provide?
Flawed Heated Charge is a rank 0–3 standard pistol mod with Naramon polarity. It grants +10% Heat at rank 0, +30% at rank 2, and +40% at maximum rank. The maximum bonus is lower than the +90% listed for Heated Charge and +165% for Primed Heated Charge.
How should I rank it?
It reaches rank 3. The listed steps cost 20, 40, and 80 Endo, with credits of 966, 1,932, and 3,864. Rank it when the additional Heat bonus is useful, while keeping in mind its lower ceiling than the listed standard versions.
What restrictions matter?
The mod uses a standard slot and is explicitly incompatible with Heated Charge and Primed Heated Charge, so it cannot be combined with either. Accelerated Isotope is a separate standard pistol mod that adds Radiation and Fire Rate; those effects differ from this mod's Heat bonus.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Its maximum Heat bonus is lower than the listed standard and Primed versions.
- Cannot be equipped alongside Heated Charge or Primed Heated Charge.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Attempting to equip the Flawed version alongside Heated Charge or Primed Heated Charge.
- Assuming the Flawed mod reaches the same Heat bonus as its standard counterparts.
