Playstyle

Double-fist rapid-fire bursts of pain with these dual-wield variants of the Grineer submachine gun. Built as a status secondary / primer option for squad clear and mission pressure.

Signature

Kuva Twin Stubbas is not a signature weapon — any frame can use it without a signature passive.

When to Pick

  • You want a Dual Pistols that fits a status secondary / primer play pattern.
  • Your loadout needs what Kuva Twin Stubbas 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 11.6 · Slash 12.7 · Puncture 2.7

    Hit-Scan · Crit 23% / 1.9× · Status 31% · Fire Rate 10

Attack Notes

  • Normal Attack (Hit-Scan): Impact 11.6, Slash 12.7, Puncture 2.7.

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.

  • Secondary 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 1.0.

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

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 / DisruptionSituationalTest whether Kuva Twin Stubbas still clears or enables clear when enemies are dense and overlevelled.
Exterminate / Capture Speed RunsStrongUse Kuva Twin Stubbas 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 Kuva Twin Stubbas, then reposition.
Open World / Long SightlinesSituationalLong sightlines favor hitscan/sniper/bow patterns over short falloff or melee.
Solo Boss / Single-TargetSituationalFine if Kuva Twin Stubbas has strong single-target multipliers; otherwise bring a dedicated boss weapon.
