Does -103% flight speed go backwards or just levitate forever?

[Impulse_Nine]

So I got a Miter Riven. Out of 10 rolls the best I got was impressive stats but with the drawback of negative flight speed.

Farming the Miter is no small task, yet the idea of a primary weapon that "deploys" powerful floating discs is one that really appeals to me (I am a huge fan of the Zenistar).

So to any fellow Tenno out there who have experienced -100% flight speed:

Does the projectile move? Does it last indefinitely? Does it go backwards?

 

Many thanks

pls DE let us shoot ourselves with backward fire ! :B

Yes.

You can shoot back in time

It doesn't go backwards. It's just too slow. You won't be able to hit anything.

miter without terminal velocity is nightmare to use cz of pretty bad flight speed by defualt negati would made it...even worse

It will hover in the air indefinitely.

If you find that you don't like it after playing with it, I would pay a fair sum for it.

The cooler thing would be to "bullet time" the weapon with a flight speed mod and high status blast so you can fire an inevitable, slow-moving wall of deadly knockdown at 5-10% flight speed.

If it wasn't for the terrible stats on the miter, this could actually have a use. Add punch through and you have a weapon, in theory, that could deploy a wall of defensive blades at enemy filter points. It would be a lot like Limbo's proposed rework with the time stop. Want to see this tested though.

Challenge accepted.

For those interested- I did rebuild the Miter: Its really disappointing. There is no difference whatsoever. The speed appears to be unchanged as far as I remember it. Certainly no shots levitating or slowly drifting backwards. No trap laying utility primary for me

So fingers crossed for the Rifle equivalent of the Azima / Zenistar I guess! Ho hum.
