Understand Shred
Useful when…
- Add Fire Rate and Punch Through to a compatible Rifle.
- Choose it when both listed bonuses suit the weapon setup.
Bonuses by rank
At rank 0, Shred grants +5% Fire Rate and +0.2 Punch Through. At rank 3, it grants +20% Fire Rate and +0.8 Punch Through; at rank 5, it grants +30% Fire Rate and +1.2 Punch Through. The Fire Rate bonus is doubled for bows; this condition does not establish bow compatibility and does not double Punch Through.
Mod details
Shred is a rare standard Rifle mod with Madurai polarity, base drain 6, and maximum rank 5. Consider the combined bonuses when both fit the weapon setup.
Ranking costs
The listed cost to move from rank 2 to 3 is 120 Endo and 5,796 Credits; rank 4 to 5 costs 480 Endo and 23,184 Credits. Rank 5 provides the listed maximum bonuses.
Related mods
Primed Shred lists +55% Fire Rate, doubled for bows, and +2.2 Punch Through, but Shred is explicitly incompatible with it. Aerial Ace refreshes Double Jump on kills while airborne; Agile Aim grants movement speed while aiming. Their described effects differ from Shred's Fire Rate and Punch Through bonuses.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Combines Fire Rate and Punch Through in a standard Rifle slot with base drain 6.
- Higher listed fusion ranks require more Endo and Credits.
- Shred and Primed Shred are incompatible.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming the bow Fire Rate condition establishes that bows can equip Shred.
- Applying the doubled bow Fire Rate bonus to Punch Through.
- Trying to equip Shred and Primed Shred together despite their incompatibility.
