Heavy Caliber Mod Is 15% Damage With 15% Extra Recoil.

Ogris, anyone tried? 1 shot charged. Even Paris Prime :D. All the charged primaries, I'm gonna try it on Torid once I get it.

Heavy caliber mod is 15% damage with 15% extra recoil.

 

Maxing that + serration and putting it on dera = tons of damage.

Suddenly supra became even harder to use.

The impracticallity is off the chart,and so is my newfound love for such uncontrollable dethmachinegunlazor

[Voidflow]

what if De will drastically buff bullet type weapons with recoil for armor 2.0 and this mode is just a mandatory investment for recoilless guns ?

[Ditsydoo]

AIMIN IS FOR WIMPS, DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA. (On a more serious note i gotta get that mod.)

New definition of spray and pray :o

Put it on a Braton and it only makes the gun shake more, which means it actualy has more spread than recoil.

Flux Rifle and Dera... zomg the OPness to come. On another note, are you finding the Vaults in EVERY derelict mission or are they random spawns?

 

I did NOT find a Vault on Assassinate.

 

I've yet to test Survival and Defense.

 

On Capture and Exterminate, there was a vault on 100% of my runs so far.

Extra recoil affects mainly automatic weapons which have a recoil value; semi-auto weaponry will suffer far less since people are already naturally compensating recoil by controlling their rate of fire.

 

This means weapons like the Dera (which has no recoil), the bows (which fire a single shot per 'clip'), the Latron family (semi-automatics) and the sniper class weaponry will benefit greatly from those mods while weapons which uses burst fire or full auto will reduce their efficiency at range, making them extremely viable up close (think SMG) while needing much compensation downrange.

 

Also, there's need to know if it only affects vertical or horizontal recoil or both of them; if it's only vertical, then it can easily be compensated (so yay, more damage). If it's horizontal, it's a bit more tricky since it's a lot more random.

While you are right that serration is better for its respective cost, you are forgetting that the two mods stack. Also there are many weapons that receive no downsides from Heavy Caliber. Weapons like Ogris, Flux Rifle, any Bow, and the Synapse can use this mod and never feel its downsides.

 

I'm not forgetting it. It just makes no sense for them have the same benefit while being more expensive and negatively affecting most of our weaponry. I could get behind either larger boosts or lower cost, for example. If we take Magnum Force + Hornet Strike/Heavy Caliber + Serration as the new basis, they could switch bonuses around, for example. They could make Hornet Strike/Serration weaker and cheaper and boost the corrupted mods to make 'em better for their cost.

There is a pistol that is similar to this, its called Magnum Fore and it has as much ranks as hornet strike and it give +6% damage and +8% recoil per rank

[Shinreil]

If you really like a weapon you learn to control the recoil, its not that big of a deal in warframe. I can see me putting this on Ogris or Torid or the Magnum Force that is the pistol counter part on to Acris

Try with flux if you want to laugh. 

[Dracosaber]

Looks like they are working on this so that the negative somehow applies to "zero recoil" guns. 

 

See Warframe Primetime.

 

Enjoy the awesomeness while it lasts it seems. lol
