LuckyCharm Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 DE, I really love this weapon and I love the codex scan idea, but we already have helios, atlas augment, and normal scanners to scan to the codex. If possible can you please make this weapon synthesis scan instead please? It'd help greatly in getting that daily cap, for those of us who like to solo and don't have room to carry the kinetic traps to get scans with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) Idk about ore gaze, but iirc Helios can't get more Kavat DNA if you have completed its codex. So I guess the main idea behind this weapon is to comfortably farm Kavat DNAs without CC. Then again mine is still crafting.

Omega-Shadowblade Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Does it give you regular simaris affinity from killing normal enemies with synthesis scanner? If so that'd really be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can strongly recommend Trinity because Well of Life suspends them like any other enemy. Makes them immobile without damaging them and allows for really easy scans. She's also capable of solo-ing most content, including sorties much of the time. Makes her my ideal Simaris hunter because of facetanks out the wazoo and individual CC capability. On topic, however, I do agree with this. The weapon is based on Simaris's tech, so it should do Simaris scans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, that's what I'm hoping to get changed so you can get simaris affinity for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gluih Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Can it use synthesis scanners? That's really everything I care about at this point. Simaris standing would be nice I suppose, but I have everything he got already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why I made this post I think what he meant was can it do a regular scan with synthesis scanner charges with it if you are out of regular charges. And I think the answer to that is yes. I could be wrong though about that, it might not be able to use them. But I don't think he was asking whether it can get simaris rep.

LuckyCharm Posted July 29, 2016 Author Share Posted July 29, 2016 It can't use synthesis scanners at all, for codex scans or not. I tested it with both equipped seperately and it seems only codex scanners work. You don't get any codex scans either unless you have codex charges in your gear slot too. Havent tried hitting the cats with it yet, so i can't say it acts like the helios and stops scanning them after 20.. but either way... that'd be the only use for it for me. Since I already scanned most things with my helios and atlas when the augment came out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)LegionOfZoom1410 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I thought I read it can use both scanners & get you rep as well.. Has anyone tried searching for a sanctuary target?? That might be how you get it.. If not DE needs to add this in as its Codex Scanning weapon from Samaris so make it happen DE... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
