Perigale

Sniper / Single-Target

Like a breath of wind, shots fired by this multi-barrel sniper are felt but never seen by its targets. Headshots in quick succession increase the Perigale's ammo efficiency. When the Perigale is wielded by Voruna, its ammo pool increases.

Playstyle

Like a breath of wind, shots fired by this multi-barrel sniper are felt but never seen by its targets. Built as a sniper / single-target option for squad clear and mission pressure.

Signature

Perigale is not a signature weapon — any frame can use it without a signature passive.

When to Pick

  • You want a Sniper that fits a sniper / single-target play pattern.
  • Your loadout needs what Perigale does well — check Mission Usefulness below before investing Forma.
  • You’re ready to Catalyze / Forma it if you plan to main it on Steel Path.

Attack Modes

  • Normal Attack

    Impact 20.6 · Slash 55 · Puncture 96.3

    Hit-Scan · Crit 28% / 2.6× · Status 16% · Fire Rate 2 · Falloff 300–600m (−20%)

Attack Notes

  • Normal Attack (Hit-Scan): Impact 20.6, Slash 55.0, Puncture 96.3.

Upgrades

Permanent investments on this weapon copy — separate from the Prime variant.

  • Orokin CatalystCapacity

    Doubles mod capacity so endgame builds fit.

    Usually the first permanent upgrade on a weapon you plan to main.

  • FormaPolarity

    Adds or changes polarities so matching mods cost half capacity.

    expect multiple Forma for a hungry config.

  • Exilus Weapon AdapterSlot

    Unlocks utility options (Exilus on guns; melee focuses on stance polarity + utility mods).

    Install when you need ammo, handling, or QoL without sacrificing damage slots.

  • Primary Arcane AdapterArcane

    Lets you install a weapon arcane for a strong passive bonus.

    Worth it once the base mod config is already solid.

  • Riven ModRiven

    Unique rolled mod. Disposition 1.15.

    Chase clean desirable stats; skip awkward negatives on low-disposition weapons.

  • Perigale PrimeVariant

    The primed version — stronger stats and usually better polarities.

    Upgrade path when relics/parts are available.

Mod Scaling

Multishot

Usually the highest value damage slot — more projectiles, more procs, more clear.

Critical

Stack crit chance/damage when the weapon’s crit stats justify a crit suite.

Elemental

Faction/elemental lines for Steel Path; Viral+Heat is a safe default on many guns.

Fire Rate

Fire rate raises DPS but burns ammo — pair with reload/ammo economy when needed.

Priority

Multishot → Crit (if crit-viable) → Elemental → QoL ammo/reload.

Mission Usefulness

Mission / ContextRatingWhy
Steel Path Survival / Defense / DisruptionStrongTest whether Perigale still clears or enables clear when enemies are dense and overlevelled.
Exterminate / Capture Speed RunsStrongUse Perigale when its fire pattern matches fast tile clears — skip if it feels awkward on empty lanes.
Mobile Defense / ExcavationStrongHold objectives by deleting approach packs with Perigale, then reposition.
Open World / Long SightlinesExcellentLong sightlines favor hitscan/sniper/bow patterns over short falloff or melee.
Solo Boss / Single-TargetSituationalFine if Perigale has strong single-target multipliers; otherwise bring a dedicated boss weapon.

Alternatives

Other options if Perigale isn’t the right fit.

  • Perigale Prime

    Prime upgrade in the same line as Perigale — Perigale Prime has higher crit (14%) and higher status (25%). Compare polarities before Forma.

  • Buzlok

    Another Sniper option if Perigale’s handling or acquisition doesn’t fit your farm.

  • Coda Sporothrix

    Another Sniper if you want less crit than Perigale (Coda Sporothrix: 5.0%).
