Just wanna ask what are the best elements to get (for general use) on some of these weapons

Kuva Zarr - Bramma - Nukor

Tenet Arca Plasmor

      You don’t need Slash for priming though. As a Condition Overload primer, it only matters that you have a status, not what that status is. So Magnetic + Cold + Radiation is actually better than Slash + Impact, if you intend to use the Nukor to prime.

      The only exceptions are Viral, which you always want a lot of, and sometimes Heat (if you’re doing a heat inherit build.)

      If you want to use the nukor as a main damage weapon and not a primor, hemorrhage/slash is okay, but the chance of getting a slash proc is so low that you’re better off with a generic build.

        I still don’t quite follow. With magnetic, you get:

        Magnetic (progenitor) Radiation (innate) Microwave (innate) Modded element 1 Modded element 2

        For 5 total priming statuses.

        With impact, wouldn’t you lose 1 (magnetic) to gain 2 (impact and slash) for net +1 number of different statuses?

        Or are you saying that you’ll likely be proccing slash on your damaging weapon so it’s just not really needed?

          What I mean is, if you want to spend your progenitor element and mod slot to get two statuses, you can do better than Impact + Hemorrhage. It’s a small chance stacked on top of a small chance (since even with a 60% progenitor your elements will be diluted on a primer.) Going for something like Magnetic + a Heat 60/60 is just more efficient for priming, because you get status chance and the heat isn’t contingent on getting a magnetic proc.

          (It doesn’t help that many of the best melee weapons already proc slash.)

      You should run Magnetic (Lich), Radiation (innate), Viral+Heat. Since secondaries have Primed Heated Charge, focusing on Viral+Heat is better than on Impact and pseudo Slash. This way, the weapon can handle any enemy type.

      Using Hemorrhage and similar is a valid option only when the does a guaranteed Impact proc or is too slow to reliably apply a lot of Heat stacks.

      I’ve always heard it was a meme build. I haven’t tried it myself because that means farming another knukor and I really don’t want to do that lol.
