I've seen a lot of questions about Weak Point regarding this gun. I did test Weakpoint as opposed to Fire Priority across all resistance levels to Fire Damage, specifically Dead Bride, Devourer, and Pyromaniac. This was before I decided on the final mod for this build. Now I only have one copy of Enduring Legacy meaning I am missing 12% Fire Resist debuff but from my testing what I concluded, across all resistances: Enduring Legacy with 0-2 Copies total will be outperformed by Weak Point damage ONLY in the case that the boss is immobilized from start to finish of the fight and you are able to hit weakpoints with near 100% accuracy. However, if you have max copies, assuming you are maintaining your fire resist debuff stacks (which is incredibly consistent and easy to do), Fire Priority out performs Weakpoint Sight in all situations. One important thing to note regarding Weak Point damage is there is a hidden 0.5x weakpoint bonus on all guns. This does not however affect the scaling of mods you equip. So in this case, without Weak Point Sight we have 1.5x weak point damage and with it we have 1.85x, making the actual difference in weakpoint damage multplier 19% as opposed to 35%. Lastly, bosses have resistances. 35% weak point damage isn't really 35%, because bosses have defense aka resist to Firearm Attack damage. Defense and Fire Resist are not the same thing. Because Enduring Legacy strips away 45% of a bosses Fire Resist at max stacks, the actual value of the Fire Damage becomes significantly higher. We are not stripping its defense meaning we are not making our Weakpoint damage do more by applying stacks from the weapon's passive.

Anyways I hope that clears things up. Thanks for watching <3

Another Guid from our Man Meui... nice! Always looking forward to your content releases.
I love how your guides seem overall great with knowledge and explanation - other ytubers tend to present you the "S-Tier / OP-Build" but can't give you back information or bet they neither to the testing of that build.
Keep it up!

Very nice, I just got done building mine this morning. It's pretty much the same as yours except instead of fire priority I'm running concentrate support ammo. Having those extra rounds and crit damage is pretty rad

[TylRgor]

Once again, fantastic guide!
Thanks for your hard work 👍

Great Video! we almost have the same build and this video made it easier for me to decide on my last slot and what polarization should i put in it. this is probably 1 of the guides out there that explains everything with clarity and actual testing.

[Luna_Jade]

Naturally i find this video after i craft my enduring legacy 😊

[enriquemendez]

First here! Been waiting for this all day. So thankful for your builds man! They help a ton with your testing over my theorycrafting 😁

[JarredHumphries-vhps]

Nice tip with Sharp Precision Shot. I do see many using Mental Focus and you made a good point. Will give this a go.

[maple]

yay at last i waited forever for this :D
thanks for the share, plz upload

Have you tried weak point on it? It was found out that the weak point mod is actually additive to the multiplier on weapons so it’s always good to use weak point on any weapon no matter the lower base. EL has a base low wp at 1x so it only does 100% more dmg but adding weak point sight is straight up +35% so now we’re at 135% more dmg to weak points

interesting, you explanation for sps vs mf is exactly the opposite of other vids i've seen. from description, it looks like sps is the one the drops all stacks if you stop shooting. and mental focus has 2s where you can stop and not lose stacks. but sps is technically a higher dps, mf is higher total output.

been waiting on this build drop, you should prob set some time aside farming that 3 other thunder cage copy its a game changer

Thanks for the great video as always! Question about attribute rolls -- I know you mentioned that fire atk > col damage in basically all cases, but I hit a gold col damage and dont feel like spending 300k a roll to try and hit fire with so much other stuff to upgrade still. With that said, since I am fully maximizing this wep / almost have the unique fully upgraded, if I were to keep col damage, would you still go with fire priority or replace it with something like edging shot? I've heard mixed things about edging shot so I'm not positive on it, but curious to hear what you think in any case. Thanks! Edit: Have you ever tested edging shot vs insight focus? I always question whether insight focus can contend with it but don't have the gold to pump both just for testing.

[Lyrios]

Im curious, would using edging shot or another crit mod be better for fire bosses since they cant burn for the 11% firearm attack? Or is it still better to increase fire attack with the 40% fire resistance reduction, again for fire bosses specifically?

[vnear]

For infinite ammo gley's bossing setup, what would you replace expand wep charge with? Thanks for the guides!

[AnimByBmXu]

You can ADS or hold down lmb to skip the reload timer as well. Prob most convenient

[swifted]

Bro, I’m in the 1000 sub gang 🫰

Ult Viessa soon?

[cilospresents]

Ive got all the golds you have except it rolled Gold Electric instead of Fire. Im sure it conflicts but wanted to get your opinion

[henryromain]

I don’t understand whats all the fuss with the weakpoint damage guys, every Ultimate weapon has a base stats sheet showing you the better multiplicatives stats than other clearly the game is telling you to invest in crit damage and fire damage on this weapon its not hard to understand now you apply the same logic to a gun like python with a 2x multiplier on weakpoint dmg because its already on the base stats sheet of the weapon anyways great vid bro

[marcassface]

As im leveling the gun up and I've only gotten 2-3 catalyst additional catalyst added so far, what would your priority of mods be from top to bottom?
