Steel Path Primary Build Template: General Use

Burston Prime

Steel Path Template for Primaries Important Notes I did not slot in Galvanized Aptitude because: GunCO will interact differently based on the weapon. If AoE is part of the weapon's damage, GunCO will not be good to use because GunCO does not add damage to AoE. -- Examples of mixed primaries: Acceltra, Burston Incarnon, Strun Incarnon Rule with GunCO: Always look up on the wiki here) about how GunCO interacts with the weapon you're wanting to use. If GunCO is multiplicative to base damage bonuses (aka Multiplicative GunCO), it is best to slot in Serration alongside the Faction mod. Best way to do this is to outsource your Viral to a primer (secondary/companion or Nourish) to free up 2 mod slots on the weapon. Depending on the weapon, you can keep a Merciless arcane or use a different Arcane that improves something else on the weapon. Faction mods are one of the best ways to multiply your damage. The Faction Damage Multiplier is especially effective with Status Damage builds because of how the Faction Damage Multiplier functions. The Faction damage multiplier is applied twice with Status Damage builds: 1st on the initial hit 2nd on the Status Damage tick This effectively makes the Faction damage multiplier to go from: To You can swap the Faction mod for an Elementalist mod when using Status Damage builds if you do not want to use a Faction mod. You can sometimes use a combination of a Faction mod and Elementalist mod. Just remember that Faction mods will always be superior. Please adjust the template to the specific weapon you're using. The Arcane can also be swapped as well, because some weapons may perform better with Primary Deadhead or something like Primary Crux.

Early Game Primary Build Template: General Use

Burston Prime

Early game general-use template There will always be exceptions in each weapon category. Some weapons have base Electric damage, some are Status weapons, some can't take advantage of hybrid builds, etc. However, this should work well enough for most generic primary weapons. Viral multiplies damage dealt to Health. Against generic Corpus enemies, swapping to pure Toxin is usually best because Toxin bypasses Shields entirely, and most Corpus enemies don't have Armor to reduce the Toxin damage. In this case, you will need an outside source of Viral, either from your secondary or companion. If you don't want to do that, this will still work fine.

Burston Prime Incarnon is a head shot monster! Viral Heat on the incarnon will wipe most enemies off the map at level cap with very little help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jbwedwIwUg&lc=UgzGgFjUERenfsaAs0F4AaABAg.A_mXauowwRdA_u5w9T1nKv

Burston Incarnon General Use Builds

Burston Prime

Viral/Heat and Pure Heat builds I hate Acuity Non-Acuity builds works just as well and, in my opinion, better than Acuity because you don't have to aim at weakpoints/heads every time you want to do damage. Also, it says 5 forma, but it's actually only 4 if you move the dash polarity from the Exilus slot onto Critical Delay or Hellfire. On the Pure Heat build, replace Galvanized Aptitude for a Faction mod if you want to min/max a bit more.
