Understand Mortal Conduct

Useful when…

  • Use its reflection effect while below 50 Health and blocking attacks while channeling.
  • Rank it to increase the listed reflection bonus and effect duration.

Effect and condition

Conclave fit and slot

Mortal Conduct is a Rare Conclave Melee mod with Madurai polarity, base drain 10, and maximum rank 3. It occupies a standard mod slot.

How blocking mods differ

Guardian Derision taunts enemies within 15 meters while blocking and grants +30% Combo Count Chance while blocking. Stand Ground reduces damage taken from enemy abilities by 60% while blocking. Mortal Conduct instead reflects damage taken under its below-50-Health blocking and channeling condition.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • The effect requires less than 50 Health, blocking attacks, and channeling.
  • It has base drain 10 and uses a standard slot.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Expecting the effect to activate at exactly 50 Health or above.
  • Confusing damage reflection with damage reduction or enemy taunting.
