Which Javlok riven is better in your opinion?

[Vademar306]

Since Warframe builder may have some inaccuracy (or rather I'm inexperienced with it) which of the rivens is better for javlok in terms of practicality and not paper dps. (and pls don't tell me ones better because its higher mr or lower rolls :)

Javlok A (D polairity):

142% crit chance

81% Flight speed

104.6% Crit Damage

-32 damage to infested

MR 12-10 Rolls

 

Javlok B (D polarity):

91.8% Toxin

89% Multishot

138.6% Crit Chance

-36% Damage to Infested

Not sure about Mr but I think it might be 10 rolls or lower.

 

I'm just not sure whether or not multishot is better in case of javlok since its quite a crit weapon and also would toxin be better than flight speed since that boost makes it quite a hitscan weapon, considering added damage might not be enough if targets move a lot and you suck at aiming.

Any help or comment would be appreciated thanks again!!

I agree.

I will add that the Javlok tends to be more of a status weapon than pure critical, so multishot is nice for that. The second riven will allow you to build gas status or corrosive-heat, which are both excellent choices.

The speed of the primary projectile is decent so flight speed isn't necessary. If you use a cc frame like Nova or Ice Wave Impedence Frost, you should be able to land headshots without difficulty

I say B, you could make a nice Gas build out of it.

In my OPINION, you should take the first one. Not only does it give you higher crit chance, but it also gives you crit damage, which is just going to give you much more damage. That's just my take on it

[Vademar306]

so multishot and toxin is relatively worse?

personally crit damage is very nice to have ... so i say A because you could really make any build pretty strong with it 

[Echorion]

I would take the first one also. I mean the second one is really good too; but the first one you are not tied to a specific damage element- you can use whatever elemental mods you want with it.

[ashrah]

i would take first time... flight speed very good

[Vademar306]

Im going to try to bump this thread abit again because the gas status build with the second riven deals 72k burst and 32 sustained on wf builder whereas the first dual crit riven does 50k burst and 23k sustained which is considerably worse. Do you think the crit multiplier could compensate for the lack of paper DPS and do I have to do consistant headshots in order to beat the multishot riven? IF I keep hitting body parts will it do worse? and is flight speed rly that useful? Thanks again guys!! The build uses heavy c btw although I don't use heavy c since it limits accuracy.
