Slash Thread Steel Path Light-attack slash Incarnon 5 forma
Light-attack slash thread — Buzz Kill and Weeping Wounds stack slash procs while Galvanized Steel and Blood Rush crit the needle through Steel Path armor.
Best pickInfluence Needle Recommended Innodem loadout — open it instead if you want the default setup. Exilus on top, then eight general slots. Weapons have no Aura slot.
Why each mod is in this Innodem loadout.
Dispatch Overdrive Exilus move speed after melee kills so slash threads stay mobile while you stitch through Steel Path lanes.
Pointed Wind Dagger stance tuned for light-attack strings — Slash Thread wants rapid hits, not heavy wind-ups.
Organ Shatter Flat crit damage so slash crits open bleed gates harder — pairs with Galvanized Steel on Incarnon light attacks.
Blood Rush Combo crit chance that makes every light poke a crit once the multiplier climbs — slash builds need crit density.
Weeping Wounds Combo status chance so slash and toxin procs land before the next string — status density feeds Condition Overload.
Condition Overload Per-status damage so primed and self-applied statuses multiply light-attack damage on Steel Path heavies.
Galvanized Steel Crit chance and kill-stacking crit damage — the crit backbone under Organ Shatter for Incarnon slash threads.
Primed Fever Strike Primed toxin for Corrosive/toxin pressure and extra status weight beside slash — softens armor while bleeds tick.
Buzz Kill Slash damage bias so Innodem’s IPS leans into bleed procs — Slash Thread’s namesake status engine.
Frame builds that list Innodem in Arsenal.
