PROGENITOR ELEMENT : HEAT

Heat progenitor combines with innate toxin to proc gas on slam. Melee Afflictions multiplies this by 7x creating zones of lingering Gas, which last longer due to [Lasting Sting]. Mire's passive also causes forced toxin that scales off primed fever strike despite combining into gas.

MOD BREAKDOWN

• Primed Pressure Point: mandatory base damage, do NOT use condition overload as this does not affect slam damage
• [Galvanized Steel]: gives both crit damage and chance. If you had the slots by not using smite or lasting sting, you would ideally run double sacrificial mod + organ shatter to hit 100% cc for consistency
• Galvanized Reflex: gives initial combo to 5x
• Seismic Wave: mandatory slam damage, multiplicative to pressure point
• Galvanized Elementalist: multiplies status damage and also gives a bit of status so you can proc gas more consistently
• Lasting Sting: increases length of gas procs to over 12s, good for camping missions where enemies can run into clouds. Flexible Slot
• Primed Fever Strike: boosts toxin procs by 2.65x
• Primed Smite: boosts procs by 2.4x. Flexible slot.

FLEXIBLE OPTIONS

If you don't want to use either or both of Lasting Sting/Primed Smite, you should swap out the [Primed Pressure Point] + Galv Steel for Sacrificial Pressure + Sacrificial Steel to hit 100% cc, and then slot Organ Shatter for crit damage.

Other useful options include:

• Toxic Blight : +100% tox and gives Blight passive (30s cooldown)
• Virulent Scourge: +60% tox but also status chance
• Proton Snap : 100% tox and flat 50% status but needs wall latch
• Blood rush: more cc
• Weeping wounds : more status
• [Killing Blow] : more heavy dmg
