In general it’s always toxin. You can make corrosive or viral with just one mod.
For the nukor specifically, magnetic is best for a priming build as it allows the most statuses at once. Heat iirc is best for dps.
For the plasmor I hear you can’t go wrong with magnetic either. Apparently the galvanized status mod does some funky shit and makes it stronger? Toxin is a safe choice though, helps open up a slot for a qol mod.
Isn’t impact better for Nukor priming because of Hemorrhage?
You don’t need Slash for priming though. As a Condition Overload primer, it only matters that you have a status, not what that status is. So Magnetic + Cold + Radiation is actually better than Slash + Impact, if you intend to use the Nukor to prime.
The only exceptions are Viral, which you always want a lot of, and sometimes Heat (if you’re doing a heat inherit build.)
If you want to use the nukor as a main damage weapon and not a primor, hemorrhage/slash is okay, but the chance of getting a slash proc is so low that you’re better off with a generic build.
I still don’t quite follow. With magnetic, you get:
Magnetic (progenitor) Radiation (innate) Microwave (innate) Modded element 1 Modded element 2
For 5 total priming statuses.
With impact, wouldn’t you lose 1 (magnetic) to gain 2 (impact and slash) for net +1 number of different statuses?
Or are you saying that you’ll likely be proccing slash on your damaging weapon so it’s just not really needed?
What I mean is, if you want to spend your progenitor element and mod slot to get two statuses, you can do better than Impact + Hemorrhage. It’s a small chance stacked on top of a small chance (since even with a 60% progenitor your elements will be diluted on a primer.) Going for something like Magnetic + a Heat 60/60 is just more efficient for priming, because you get status chance and the heat isn’t contingent on getting a magnetic proc.
(It doesn’t help that many of the best melee weapons already proc slash.)
