Ignition Code

The most important weapon to get this season that will be relevant in the PvE meta for some time” - Ehroar

This thing is horrifying. It’s going to remind you of The Mountaintop It’s like a full-auto GL! - Frostbolt

Well, I’m not sure the world of players will get as much utility out of this in PvP as Frostbolt does, but you will definitely make magic with it inside of PvE. If there’s one Splicer weapon you farm for this season, make it the Ignition Code.

PvP Rolls

There seems to be a new PvP meta emerging / has emerged using GLs to “prime” (i.e. do a material amount of damage to you) and then finish you off with a high-impact/low-RoF primary. It’s been the case for a couple of seasons by now, but I’m seeing it more now that Ignition Code is so easy to get.

“Avalanche”

You’ll notice that we’re looking to lower Blast Radius to ensure that we concentrate as much of the damage as possible on to the direct hit (v. splash). Slideshot is absolutely brilliant once you get the timing right. Check out some Frostbolt highlights.

  Barrels [ 28%]: Hard Launch
  Mags    [ 33%]: Spike Grenades
  Perks 1 [ 16%]: Slideshot
  Perks 2 [ 16%]: Thresh
  MWorks  [ 20%]: Velocity MW

PvE Rolls

Ignition Code is the only obtaininable Kinetic GL in the game that can roll with Blinding Grenades which, if you’re planning on doing anything remotely resembling challenging PvE content, is a must-have. Ehroar put together a solid review of Ignotion Code in PvE.

“Add Clear - Ehroar’s Pick”

Combining the new Danger Zone perk with Blinding Grenades means you’re practically blinding an entire room each time you fire it. Absolutely top-tier for challenging PvE content. Without Slideshot you’re stil looking at a phenomenal Grenade Launcher, so a handful of variants are offered without it.

  Barrels [ 28%]: Volatile Launch
  Mags    [ 33%]: Blinding Grenades
  Perks 1 [ 16%]: Slideshot
  Perks 2 [ 16%]: Danger Zone
  MWorks  [ 20%]: Blast Radius MW

“Single-Target Damage - Ehroar’s Pick”

This roll is centered around the damage bosts from Spike Grenades and Vorpal Weapon. Again we’re looking to minimize Blast Radius and keep the damage focused on the point of contact. Without Slideshot you’re stil looking at a phenomenal Grenade Launcher, so a handful of variants are offered without it.

  Barrels [ 28%]: Hard Launch
  Mags    [ 33%]: Spike Grenades
  Perks 1 [ 16%]: Slideshot
  Perks 2 [ 16%]: Vorpal
  MWorks  [ 20%]: Velocity MW
