    Firing high-velocity blades, this weapon can also be used as a battle-saw, shredding anything unfortunate enough to get into range.

    The Panthera is a  Tenno blade launcher that launches circular sawblades. Its Alternate Fire levitates a spinning saw blade in front of it, dealing continuous damage to enemies within range.

    This weapon can be sold for  7,500.

    Characteristics[edit | edit source]

    • This weapon deals primarily  Slash damage.
    • Primary fire shoots bouncing miniature saws in full automatic, consuming 2 ammo per shot.
    • Alternate Fire deploys a single levitating sawblade 6 meters away that deals continuous damage and staggers enemies, only consuming ammo when dealing damage.
      • Can be deployed without consequence when no targets exist.
    • Can use the Panthera-exclusive  Disarming Purity Augment mod.

    Notes[edit | edit source]

    • The Panthera's primary fire mode shoots fast-moving sawblades that will ricochet off walls and enemies up to 3 times.
    • The Panthera has a Alternate Fire mode initiated by holding down the alternate fire key (default MMB ). This levitates a spinning sawblade up to 6 meters in front of the weapon, dealing continuous damage to enemies that make contact with it, as well as staggering them.
      • The sawblade floats out of the weapon towards its levitation point, taking around half a second to reach its maximum range. The sawblade retracts back into the launcher once the trigger is released.
      • Ammo is only consumed when the weapon deals damage, whether to an enemy or a damageable object.
      • If an enemy moves inside the space between the user and the sawblade, the sawblade will instantly retract to damage that enemy.
      • Punch Through allows the secondary fire mode to hit enemies behind cover as long as the enemy is within the secondary fire's range, and the punch-through depth is sufficient to penetrate through the intervening cover.
      • Can use both  Combustion Beam and  Sinister Reach. Combustion Beam works on kills made by the secondary attack and also the primary attack.
      • The primary fire mode cannot be used while this is active.
    • Although the Foundry will claim that the Panthera can be crafted if a  Hikou Prime is present in the inventory, it won't allow the Hikou Prime to be consumed to build the weapon.
    • Compared to the  Miter (based on the ranged attacks and on uncharged shots):
      • Lower total damage on uncharged attacks (100.0 vs 125.0)
        • Higher  Impact damage (20.0 vs. 6.25).
        • Higher  Puncture damage (10.0 vs. 6.25).
        • Lower Slash damage (70 vs. 112.5).
      • Faster fire rate (3.0 vs 0.526).
      • Larger magazine size (60 vs 20).
        • Primary fire consumes 2 ammo per shot, compared to one ammo per shot for the Miter.
      • Larger ammo capacity (540 vs 72).
        • Uses rifle ammo, unlike the Miter, which uses the relatively rarer sniper ammo.

    Tips[edit | edit source]

    • The Panthera has a high chance of cutting corpses into pieces, making it an ideal candidate for a Desecrating  Nekros to bring along, as the game considers the cut corpses as separate entities, essentially giving multiple corpses to desecrate from a single enemy and thus yielding more chances to create more drops.
      • This also applies to the secondary fire, which will not consume ammo when used on a corpse.
    • As of Hotfix 24.2.15 (2019-02-15) Heavy Caliber affects this weapon differently. It increases the spread between shots with multishot. resulting in a uniform spread not randomness.
    • Although the Panthera has lower total damage compared to uncharged Miter shots, it has higher  Impact and  Puncture damage, making it more effective against Grineer and Corpus, respectively.
    • Multishot mods cause the sawblades to be fired adjacent to each other if no accuracy penalty mods are equipped. This may cause the blades to miss when firing directly at far targets.

    Bugs[edit | edit source]

    • With Punch Through mods equipped, the blades shot from the gun will go through terrain, but not enemies.

    Trivia[edit | edit source]

    • Panthera is a genus within the Felidae family that includes the tiger, lion, jaguar and leopard. They are characterized by morphological structures in their throats that allow them to roar.
    • Despite the green decal depicted in the Panthera's portrait, the default decal color of the Panthera is blue.
    • This is the third weapon that requires two different pre-made weapons in order to craft (following the  Redeemer and the  Tipedo), and the first weapon that requires weapons from 2 different factions (the Tenno-made  Hikou and the Grineer-made  Miter).
    • The Miter, one of the prerequisite weapons needed to construct the Panthera, is similar in that it also fires sawblades.
      • The Miter's sawblades are horizontally aligned, whilst the Panthera launches vertically aligned sawblades.
    • The blades fired by Panthera have a design similar to the  Glaive.
    • Tied with  Panthera Prime and  Zhuge for the highest base damage of all fully automatic rifles.
    • Slowest fire rate of all fully automatic rifles.
