Understand Iron Shrapnel
Useful when…
- Use the recast to convert Iron Skin’s remaining health into Puncture damage and knockdown.
Recast effect
Recasting Iron Skin triggers a detonation that deals Puncture damage based on its remaining health and knocks down enemies. The listed fraction is 40% at rank 0, 80% at rank 2, and 100% at rank 3.
Variant and mod details
Iron Shrapnel is a Rare Rhino augment identified as a Conclave variant. It uses a standard mod slot, has Zenurik polarity, base drain 6, and maximum rank 3.
Rank costs
Fusion from rank 0 to 1 costs 30 Endo and 1,449 Credits; rank 1 to 2 costs 60 Endo and 2,898 Credits; rank 2 to 3 costs 120 Endo and 5,796 Credits. The listed damage fraction increases with rank, reaching 100% at rank 3.
How other Rhino augments differ
Piercing Roar modifies Roar with added range, knockdown, and Puncture status. Reinforcing Stomp replenishes Iron Skin health for each enemy affected by Rhino Stomp. Ironclad Charge increases Armor Rating for each enemy hit by Rhino Charge for 10 seconds; each has a different ability trigger and effect from Iron Shrapnel.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Damage depends on Iron Skin’s remaining health when recast.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using Iron Skin’s original health rather than its remaining health to describe the detonation basis.
- Treating the compared Rhino augments as equivalent despite their different ability triggers and effects.
