Acquisition[edit | edit source]

The Prisma Grakata is potentially sold by Baro Ki'Teer in the Concourse section of the Tenno Relay for  100,000 and  610. Note that Baro Ki'Teer's stock changes with each appearance, and this weapon may not be available on a succeeding appearance.

The weapon can be traded, but only when unranked and without Forma or Orokin Catalyst installed. The trading recipient must also have a Mastery Rank of at least 11.

Tips[edit | edit source]

  • Due to a high rate of fire and a high critical chance,  Critical Delay can be used with the Prisma Grakata to lower the fire rate (effectively making the weapon easier to handle and reduces ammo cost) and increase the critical chance at the cost of slightly lower overall DPS.
  • Compared to other rifles with high rates of fire, the Prisma Grakata has a high chance to cause status effects, which goes well with builds designed to weaken, confuse, or stun enemies.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • This weapon appeared in the Codex with Update 16.4 (2015-04-23), but was later removed from visibility in Hotfix 16.4.3 (2015-04-24). It reappeared in the Codex in Update 16.7 (2015-06-04).
  • Like other Prisma guns, the Prisma Grakata has a change to its firing sound when compared to the normal variant.
  • The Prisma Grakata used to have the same reload animation as the  Ignis up until Update 18.5 (2016-03-04).
  • Tied with  Buzlok for the second highest critical multiplier of all fully automatic rifles, behind  Tiberon Prime,  Soma/ Soma Prime, and  Baza/ Baza Prime.
  • Third lowest base damage of all fully automatic rifles, after  Soma/ Soma Prime, and normal  Grakata.
  • Highest fire rate of all primary weapons.
