Weapon Stats & Comparison Guide

Compare the baseline combat performance of melee, primary, and secondary weapons on an objective, multidimensional scale against overall category distributions.

Base Damage Profile (IPS & Elementals)

Impact, Puncture, and Slash (IPS) distribution dictates status proc weighting. Innate or progenitor elemental types (Kuva / Tenet) determine immediate synergy with Galvanized status mods (Aptitude, Savvy, Shot) and primary/secondary weapon arcanes.

Critical, Status & Fire Cycle Synergy

Critical Chance, Critical Multiplier, Status Chance per projectile, Multishot, Fire Rate, and Reload Speed are analyzed as an integrated cycle. A high rate of fire frequently offsets moderate crit multipliers against heavily armored targets.

Category Distribution & Positioning

Using violin distribution plots and standard deviation calculations, instantly see whether a weapon sits in the top percentile of its weapon class and Mastery Rank tier, factoring in its Riven disposition trade-offs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Essential pointers for comparing weapon variants, Steel Path status scaling, and Riven dispositions.

How should Prime, Kuva, and Tenet variants be evaluated against base weapons?

Upgraded variants typically increase base damage, crit stats, magazine size, or add innate polarities and unique passives. The comparator highlights these exact deltas to determine whether upgrading justifies the investment.

Why does status weighting (Slash/Viral) matter more than raw sheet damage?

Against high-level Steel Path enemies, exponential armor scaling drastically reduces raw burst damage. Slash status procs inflict true bleed damage that bypasses armor entirely, amplified up to +325% by stacked Viral procs.

What role does Riven Disposition play when choosing between two close weapons?

A standard weapon sporting a 1.35× to 1.50× Riven disposition can outdamage its Prime counterpart capped at 0.50× or 0.60× when equipped with a well-rolled Riven mod. The comparator displays dispositions side by side to guide your decision.
