Better Riven for Twin Krohkur?

[Maks_204]

So I was re-rolling my Twin Krohkur Riven and I got this choice:

+258% melee damage

+141% Status chance

or

+ 104% Electricity

+ 104% Heat

+ 94% Toxin

Which one should I get?

definitely Damage/Status.

triple Elemental could theoretcally be better against a single subgroup of Enemies. but generally not worth it. especially since you'd be forced into using Rad+Viral with the Elements in that order. which is a good Damage Type mixture but it's a very specialized one.

Damage+Status also boosts Crit Slash, of which both forms of Krohkur are proficient at.

Just correcting you, rivens count the damage type from buttom up. So it will be Gas + Electricity without other mods. If you add Electricity damage mod before the riven you will have Corrosive + Heat.

For OP, take the Damage + Status, simply because the Twin Krohkur have high status chance and because you will be able to mod for more damage type as @taiiat suggested.

which you would not want whatsoever(not on that Weapon atleast), ergo you have to force it to be Rad+Viral by adding Ice Damage before it.

Exacly, with the elemental riven you get overwhole more damage, but force it to be a spesific one. Not worth it.
