Psychotoxin Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Currently have a potato and Serration in it, as it is still rank 6. What would be the best build for it?I was thinking about putting Shred into it and then maybe Blast damage.
Riddle78 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) The Miter already has INSANE innate punch-through on a full charge,so Shred would be a waste. If you really want to reduce charge time,throw on Speed Trigger.You can't crit,and you have a 50% stat chance at base,with the ability to hit multiple opponents with one shot. If you have them,I'd say throw on Malignant Force and High Voltage for some corrosive against Grineer. This will also have the glorious benefit of giving you a 110% proc chance. Guaranteed halved armour. However,this is dependent on having two event mods. Effectively,build it for status effects,with damage as a secondary. Sure,you won't kill as hard with it,but,sometimes,the secondary effects from the elements can save your bacon. For extra fun,make it pure electrical. That chain lightning proc is VERY useful,especially against Corpus. EDIT: Don't put on Rifle Aptitude. You'll only get a 7.5% improvement on the Miter with it at max rank. NOT worth the nine points. EDIT MK II: Throwing on Hammer Shot with one of the event mods will get you a solid 100% effect chance. However,since the other half of the mod is crit damage,it might feel like a bit of a waste. Your choice. Edited June 6, 2014 by Riddle78
Darzk Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) This will also have the glorious benefit of giving you a 110% proc chance. Guaranteed halved armour. I don't think you understand how procs work. First, Corrosive only reduces 25% armor. So okay, maybe you were talking about a double proc from the 2 blades when using SC. Except it stacks multiplicatively, so even 2 stacks of Corrosive only reduces 43.75% of armor. Next, Procs are split between elemental and physical procs. You can't get 100% corrosive proc when there's a 50% minimum to I/P/S procs. So you're only going to get Corrosive 1/2 of the time. Finally, Corrosive is a more valuable proc with a higher proc rate, proc chance is less relevant. Because it has to proc multiple times before it's extremely effective. The stuff about elec procs is dead on tho. I would recommend something like this for Corpus and Infested, for the sheer joy of plenty of elec and gas procs. http://goo.gl/3qnBze Elec Procs will deal 215 damage to the surrounding area, chaining for an additional 107.5 1/2 the time. Gas procs will deal 215 damage in an AoE and tick for 107.5 9 times for a total of 1182.5 toxin damage. It's unfortunate, but the Lanka does this better. Pretty much the same build too. Still, that's harder to get/more expensive to make. You could always build it for damage too, but the base slash means its really only decent against Infested. It does considerably less damage than the bows and functions similarly. Edited June 6, 2014 by Darzk
Psychotoxin Posted June 6, 2014 Author Posted June 6, 2014 Sadly i don`t have Malignant Force, or High Voltage. I assume those are the Red Veil event mods, right?Well atleast i can still try and get the Heavy Caliber mod...
Darzk Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 You can't really build for procs without them effectively. For now, because we're looking at no forma, just build Split Chamber, Serration, Speed Trigger, 2 elementals and a partial Ammo Mut. http://goo.gl/V4y9tR etc
Riddle78 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Darzk's build is a good one. Feel free to switch the elements around a bit,and see if you can't get Malignant Force or High Voltage from trading with players. Though,I warn you. You'll likely end up paying through the nose with your Platinum. They're,sadly,required for status builds. Oi,DE! Buff the baseline status mods!
Psychotoxin Posted June 6, 2014 Author Posted June 6, 2014 yeah, well my plat count atm is 10... :D and i don`t see myself getting more plat soon, so i`ll just have to work around this problem... ^^
Riddle78 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Such is life. Enjoy your Miter,at any rate. I used it,and I loved it. It REALLY shines in cramped halls.
Psychotoxin Posted June 6, 2014 Author Posted June 6, 2014 Well i like it already and it`s only rank 9 with just the serration mod yet... Sad that it doesn`t crit, but it would be so OP if it would crit...
