Shred On Boltor Prime Yes Or No ?

[(PSN)JINMBAO-79]

Yes or no ?

[Prod_Crewman]

no

[Scherhardt]

Shred is a must have mod on rifles like serration/split chamber.

[Frostosti]

no

[Senketsu_]

yes

[Iraetus]

Depends but for me. Yes

[Shinobi-kun]

Yes. If you've got the ammo and space for it. Why no? Going pro-Grineer? 

[Aggh]

I'd personally just put on more damage.  Being able to hit another enemy after killing the first one isn't going to do you much good when your first target starts tanking more at higher levels because you had to forgo  a damage mod.

[Churpy]

No. The Boltor Prime has innate punch through or at least a similar effect.

 

Check the wiki:

 

• Knocks target back on kill, dealing damage to nearby enemies behind the target.

It is unnecessary, use more damage mods.

You can shoot much more than 2 enemies at a time with Shred on...

Depends on the type of enemy.  You'll need to put on a metal auger to kill more than 2 chargers for instance.  In the long run more damage is better.  Shred's only advantage is slightly better ammo economy, but that sees diminishing returns as enemies level up.  Even an ammo mutator would be better over all unless you're just sticking to low level stuff.

I haven't seen too many fat enemies around in Warframe.

[HackShield]

yes a bit fire rate and puncture why not

[deth_monkey69]

I like it for firing through cover at enemies, and the fire rate increase is nice, but it's not essential.

[Sabreracer]

The question is how many forma on it?  Mine has 4 forma so yes 

[Sloan441]

It's not strictly necessary on the BoltorP, but it is nice for dealing with enemies behind cover or things like shield lancers.

 

I don't use it on the infested loadout, but do on grineer and corpus.

[(PSN)JINMBAO-79]

Yea i read the wiki on the knockback fing and that was what got me finking yes or no. Planing 2 put 4 mayby 5 forma in it but not sure on the shred is realy whort it i do like the firerate whit shred. Sory my spelling im frome the land of vikings   

[__Simba__]

Yes it is a nice mod for that gun. I literally took down Vor in T4 in less than 10 sec (4 forma build) Trust me it is an insane mod to have on that gun :)

[Darzk]

I like it on hitscan weapons, but find it unneeded on a weapon with innate knockback. If you want RoF use Speed Trigger for 23% more burst DPS.

[(PSN)JINMBAO-79]

I love shred on my soma and i realy like 2 shot them bhind cover,i even use the punchtrhu mod on my most loved 3 forma despair its so awsome on the despar taking down horeds of enemys. But the boltor prime i still dont know if or not to use shred and the reason im not shure is that knockback that the boltor has

[Ryjeon]

It really depends on the mission. If the enemies are dying quickly enough then Boltor's innate push-through on kills will be enough to deal with stacked enemies. But later when the enemies get more sturdy you'll do a lot more damage cutting through multiple enemies with shred.

[(PSN)JINMBAO-79]

yea that was what i was thinking 2 so i think i go whit shred

[BIossome]

Yes. I can't see myself using it without Shred on.

[DangerDaddy]

anything that is on 4 legs (such as infested/harverster) will not be punched through.

 

and Shred is good if you're going against swarms, but not so good if you're going against anything else, serration, multi-shot, all 4 corrosive mods (tethra/cicero/and both elemental) combined with the correct Bane mod and that leaves you with an open slot to either put on an extra (probably fire) elemental mod, or to place on your shred.
