What the Ace of Spades perks do

Memento Mori

Counts as a "Dealer's Choice" origin trait weapon, but does not benefit from the trait itself. Grants Radar while Aiming Down Sights. Finishing a reload within 3.6 seconds of a kill grants 6 'Memento Mori' shots, each dealing 68% [29%] increased damage. Ace of Spades has 15% Decreased Damage Falloff Distance while Memento Mori is active. Stowing the weapon removes the buff.

Corkscrew Rifling

Balanced barrel. • Slightly increases range and stability • Slightly increases handling speed

High-Caliber Rounds

Hits inflict increased Flinch on Enemies. PVE: Tier 1-2 Minors can be repeatedly staggered. Higher Tier Combatants stagger quicker. PVP: Flinch against Players varies based on damage and Weapon Archetype. Flinch increase ranges between 5-10%.

Firefly

On Precision Kill: • Target explodes, dealing 436 [80] Solar damage in a 7.5 meter radius. Falloff begins at 3.75m. • Grants 50 Reload Speed for 6 seconds (Ace of Spade's Firefly is 272% stronger than the Legendary trait in PvE)

Smooth Grip

This weapon is slightly easier to hold and aim. • Slightly increases stability • Slightly increases handling speed
