[YeezyGT's S16] [MW: Velocity/Handling] "Are there better options in-slot? Sure. But how crazy does this look design-wise? You get decent access to Ambitious Assassin for general use, Chain Reaction is great, Demolitionist is good utility, and Clusters never hurt to have."

What these Subzero Salvo perks do

Quickdraw

Switching to the Weapon grants 100 Ready/Stow Handling and a 0.95x Ready Animation Duration Multiplier for 1 second. Buff is removed as soon as ADS input is pressed.

Demolitionist

Weapon Kills grant 10% Grenade Ability Energy. Kills with Sniper Rifles, Shotguns, Glaives, and Fusion Rifles grant 20%. Using your Grenade Ability refills the Magazine with a 3 second cooldown. Ability energy gained may be significantly decreased based on your selected ability's Chunk Energy Scalar. Learn more about this mechanic in our explainer blog post on the Clarity website.

Cluster Bomb

Rocket detonations release 8 Cluster Bombs. Each Cluster Bomb deals up to 150 [11] damage in a 4 meter radius.

Ambitious Assassin
