So is anyone else laughing about how to build the new Cernos? :D

[-CdG-Zilchy]

I just have to wonder what they were thinking, you literally build 2 bad weapons to build a 3rd bad weapon lol. I suppose it's great for new players cos they get to simply offload the one they built and levelled. I'm not complaining about this, it's just amusing and feels like those Russian dolls one inside the other. I'm just curious as to what was drunk the night before they came with this :)

Glad to be of service :)

This is not something new, there are other weapons that need multiple weapons to build.
Hystrix for example needs a Viper, Bolto and the bolto needs a Lato. :D

Possibly but I can't think of them off the top of my head. I still find it hilarious.

I would not call it bad. It isn't the next Bramma, but maybe they'll fix Gas at some point and suddenly you've got a powerful AoE weapon.

I'd prefer a Paris!

You mean "un-ruin" gas. Seeing as it worked before.

[AltairFerenc]

Not all cernos are bad, rakta cernos is good, prime is alright, and if you use that multishot mod baro brought  for bows not that long ago on the mutalist you can just make a a full rom of toxic cloud, that's still not the best but it's fun

[Berzerkules]

Hey, I like the Mutalist Cernos

Yes, that was exactly what I meant.

[Prexades]

Gas became a casuality of the shield gating change, which was overall a very good one. But losing the ability to bypass shields and then removing it applying toxin procs to the target was a double nerf.

I don't think gas will get its shield bypass back now or anytime soon, but the damage type needs something else to make it viable. Maybe an effect that lowers the maximum health of an organic target over time and slows robotics.

That isn't even relevant. Gas does not scale with Toxin/Heat mods. If you have Gas on your build you'd significantly increase your damage by taking either the Heat or the Toxin mod off.

where is the bow at i looked on father did not see it?

Just wait for the Quadproboscis - Cernos. 

Building it will require five Proboscis Cernos! (for some reason) 

It is a small miracle, that blueprints are still pretending to only need up to four different resources.

Kidding aside, I don`t really find the building requirements that bad (Though it is possible that I only say that because I still had a Mutalist Cernos). 
It would add convenience, if the game would refund invested Forma and Catalysts from the "base"-weapon(s), but one could always just build another one, so it seems pretty fair on that front.
The time gating could get a little bit annoying, since you have to wait for the Cernos and then the Mutalist Cernos, if you build it from the start, but nothing about this weapon really screams "Whyyy?!! Oh dear Eldritch Gods, why?!?!". Since it is 2020, that is really all the standard something has to clear for me, so I am fine with that.

Points for the cartoon lol :D

Oh I don't mind the build, costs etc I've played this game far too long to care. I just find it amusing that this is their train of thought for a new weapon :)

Bowception.

[(PSN)robotwars7]

so, it's a lot of effort to go through for a meh weapon at best?

yep., that's a Cernos all right. Rakta is the only one that was worth the grind. still, something something MR points, something something I'm a collector etc..

[Slayer-.]

I'm glad I kept my multi part weapons, though I use the Mut Cernos now and then so no drama.

[Voltage]

Mutalist Cernos is a great weapon. Maybe you're just building it wrong or misusing it :)

That's bait but I'll play. Tell me it's the bow you'd choose to use out of the current crop ;)

Depends on what my mission is. I'll go for Daikyu for single target kills, but Mutalist Cernos is an awesome AoE weapon that can do hours of Steel Path Mot with Ivara using Empowered Quiver. Mutalist Cernos is a great crit weapon that also spreads status and Hunter Munition procs well. Maybe I have bias for having perfect Rivens on both Daikyu and Mutalist Cernos, but I really like both depending on what I am running. Cernos Prime is also a nice weapon. :)
