Among the bows in Warframe, we find one that has been taken over by the infestation! The Mutalist Cernos.
The weapon has a very cool gimmick to it, it leaves behind lingering clouds that deal area of effect damage with a very good status chance but a rather poor critical chance. This normally results in a lot of procs depending on how you chose to build the weapon.
You can fully strip armor from targets or you can annihilate corpus units with gas procs that go along with the guaranteed toxin procs.
In terms of damage, the weapon does not do very well and this is mostly because of the low base critical chance but if you factor in the area of effect capabilities than the trade-off becomes more appealing.
Another plus to the weapon would be the Riven Mod disposition of four out of five as it does not share riven disposition with the standard Cernos family. For a stat priority, I would encourage multishot and damage above critical chance as the base is a bit low so the effect wouldn't be fantastic thou it should be mentioned that the cloud can crit and fully charging a shot increases the critical chance and multiplier of the cloud.
It's hard for me to judge a weapon such as this since I don't enjoy this style of gameplay. Warframe is a fast-paced game that doesn't really allow for stationary damage but with a bit of crowd control, it can work very well. If you are the type that enjoys this style of weapon that you can also have a look at the Torid and Pox as the gimmick is mostly similar.
