Making the Prisma Skana reallly good?

[Snackm4n]

I wonder if there's a way to make a Bright Purity skana as good or better than a broken war, because I honestly don't really like the looks of broken war, and I love to use Excalibur. Afterall, Excalibur is the skana guy right? ;)

My build right now (Not forma'd yet): Crimson Dervish, Max pressure point, Max true steel, max bright purity, max berserker, max organ shatter, max fury, max shocking touch, R4 jagged edge. I'm probably going to switch organ shatter with another elemental mod once I forma it.

yep, replacing Jagged Edge with another Elemental is your best course of action if you won't be using Blood Rush. 2x Elementals is the fundamentals of the extreme Damage Players can deal to Enemies.

to truly make Prisma Skana better than Broken War though, you'll need to use Blood Rush. the higher Crit Stats will put Prisma Skana way ahead.
(which to fit you'd want to drop True Steel and Fury - while True Steel and Blood Rush together create giant Crit Chance, you'll still get more mileage out of Organ Shatter because Blood Rush is pulling most of the Crit Chance weight.   don't be tricked by people that say True Steel instead of Organ Shatter and to never use Organ Shatter, these people are easily bedazzled by Red Numbers even if they are lower numbers than what you'd get otherwise)

No. You don't really need another elemental mod because you will be better off with Organ Shatter.

I don't know what you have, what you can afford, but here is my build.

You can't make Prisma Skana better than Broken War. It's impossible in the current game.

Prisma Skana has much better Crit Stats, and therefore will outperform [in long Missions] when one uses Blood Rush.

just like with everything else, Crits makes a world of difference.

Not "much" enough. Even on x4 combo multiplier, Prisma Skana will have considerably less dps than Broken War.

[VonDodo]

Also replace Body count with the new Nightmare mod Drifting Contact

[OniGanon]

Primed Pressure Point, Bright Purity, Drifting Contact, Blood Rush, Berserker, Lifestrike R0, 2x Element

Replace Lifestrike with Organ Shatter if you don't need it.

 

Prisma Skana is inferior on Excalibur though, since Bright Purity doesn't affect Exalted Blade.

 

If you don't like Broken War, perhaps try Dakra Prime.

You really do or your damage is gonna drop. Organ shatter doesn't make up for an elemental combo.

[Naftal]

If you have Primed Pressure Point, don't bother using Bright Purity until you have at least two elementals in, it's a damage loss before that.

Also True Steel sucks. There aren't enough mod slots for that.

[Hitsuke]

Get Nikana Prime... Problem solved :P

Actually you just remove True Steel and Buzz Kill for that elemental combo and keep Organ Shatter from the shown screenshot.
