Mods Explained
Why each mod is in this Detron loadout.
- Merciless Gunfight
Same punch-through opener as the Heat build — Steel Path packs scatter, and Shells still need multi-body starters.
- Thermagnetic Shells
Shells remains the cascade engine — Radiation-weighted pellets just make the first kills more reliable before explosions take over.
- Galvanized Diffusion
Multishot stacks for denser Radiation application — more pellets mean faster Radiation stacks and more Shells triggers.
- Galvanized Shot
Per-status damage and status chance for openers — Radiation, Heat constituents, and Magnetic-adjacent pressure all feed the Shot multiplier.
- Hornet Strike
Base damage backbone under the Radiation package — raw mult keeps openers honest before faction and Elementalist scale the cascade.
- Primed Heated Charge
Primed Heat half of Radiation with Primed Convulsion — fattens Detron’s innate Radiation so packs hit Radiation cap before Shells detonations.
- Primed Convulsion
Primed Electric completing Radiation — dual primed elementals are the Rad-Shells weight package for long-duration Radiation and friendly-fire chaos.
- Primed Expel Grineer
Faction amp that multiplies Shells follow-through and any ability-taxied DoTs on the explosions — Steel Path Grineer/Corrupted delete multiplier.
- Pistol Elementalist
Status damage closer for Radiation and Heat-adjacent ticks — Elementalist makes the chain hurt after Expel has already multiplied it.
