Info

• Volt expends 15 energy to release an arc discharge toward the aiming reticle over infinite range, chaining electricity to enemies within 15 meters of each point of contact. The arc can chain a maximum of 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 times and inflicts 75 / 100 / 125 / 200  Electricity damage with a guaranteed Status Effect.
  • Shock chain requires Line of Sight and does not bypass the environment.
• Can be used while performing many actions without interrupting them, including reloading.
• Ability Synergy:
  • Casting Shock through an  Electric Shield will electrify it, inflicting 100% of Shock's damage to enemies that pass through it (e.g., Electric Shield will deal 260 damage if Shock's modified damage is 260).
    • The bonus damage from Volt's passive will also be stacked onto the damage from Shock (e.g., Electric Shield will deal 760 damage if Shock's modified damage is 260 and the Passive bonus is 500 at the time Shock is cast).
  • Casting Shock against a target under  Discharge's effect will result in an overcharge, creating an area of effect burst emitted from the target.
• Subsuming Volt to the Helminth will offer Shock and its augments to be used by other Warframes.

Info

• Volt expends 25 energy to energize the surrounding area, increasing the mobility of himself and his allies within 25 meters. Affected players will gain 10% / 15% / 20% / 25% weapon Reload Speed and 75% melee Attack Speed and Movement Speed bonuses, lasting for 9 / 10 / 11 / 12 seconds.
  • The attack speed buff grants an additive bonus that will stack with other attack speed modifiers. (e.g.,  Fury combined with Speed at max rank and +30% Ability Strength will increase Volt's attack speed by 0.75 × 1.3 + 0.3 = 127.5%).
  • The movement speed buff grants a multiplicative bonus that will stack with other movement speed modifiers. (e.g.,  Rush combined with Speed at max rank and +30% Ability Strength from  Intensify will increase Volt's sprint speed by (1 ×  1.3) × (1 + ( 0.75 ×  1.3)) − 1 = 156.75%).
  • The reload speed buff grants an additive bonus that will stack with other reload speed modifiers. (e.g.,  Quickdraw combined with Speed at max rank and +30% Ability Strength from  Intensify will increase Volt's reload speed by  0.25 ×  1.3 +  0.48 = 80.5%).
• Allies can backflip to remove Speed if they wish to opt-out.
• Increases the distance of Maneuvers like the sliding front flip and wall run as a result of the faster sprint speed.
• Can be used while performing many actions without interrupting them, including reloading.
• Can be recast while active.

Info

• Volt expends 50 energy to create an electrical energy barrier 4.25 meters high and 6 meters wide that blocks enemy fire, lasting for 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 seconds. Shots fired through the shield made by Volt and his allies gain +50%  Electricity damage and +100% critical multiplier. A maximum of 6 Electric Shields can be created at a time.
  • The critical multiplier is applied after weapon mods.
  • The  Electricity damage bonus is an additive bonus that's applied to the weapon's base damage, similar to an elemental mod. For an unmodified weapon that inflicts 100 base damage, firing through a shield will increase the total damage to 100 × (1 + 0.5) = 150. The weapon now inflicts 100 base damage and 50  Electricity damage.
    • Firing through multiple Shields will cause the  Electricity damage bonus to stack additively (e.g., firing through 3 shields will grant a 150%  Electricity damage bonus). The critical multiplier bonus on the other hand does not stack with additional shields.
    • The  Electricity damage bonus does not combine with other elemental types to create secondary elements; the weapon will separately proc the elements present on it and  Electricity from Electric Shield.
  • Casting Electric Shields after reaching the maximum will remove the oldest shield.
• Volt has the ability to pickup one of his Electric Shields through a context action (default X ). Doing so will cause the shield to decrease in size to 2.0 m × 3.0 m and become mobile as a hovering frontal shield that reorients itself to face the player's camera direction, as well as  Ragdolling enemies that come into contact with it. Activating the context action again will place down the shield and revert its size.
  • Only one shield can be equipped at a time.
  • Transference will unequip the shield.
  • Picking up the shield will prevent Volt from gaining energy from sources such as Squad Energy Restore.
• Electric Shield affects things that pass through it differently:
  • Melee attacks do not gain bonuses from passing through the shield.
    • Projectile based melee attacks such as Warfan heavy attack projectiles, Gunblade shots,  Syam's shockwave,  Tenet Agendus's energy disk, and  Nepheri's fireballs can benefit from Electric Shield's bonuses.
      • Glaive throws do not benefit from Electric Shield.
  • AoE attacks require the main projectile to pass through the shield to gain the bonuses; AoE attacks where only the AoE passes through the shield but not the main projectile will not gain the bonuses.
  • Warframe abilities do not gain bonuses from passing through the shield.
• Prevents self-stagger from area of effect weapons if the player shoots behind the shield.
• Ability Synergy: Casting  Shock through an Electric Shield will electrify it, inflicting 100% of Shock's damage to enemies that pass through it (e.g., Electric Shield will deal 260 damage if Shock's modified damage is 260).
  • The bonus damage from Volt's passive will also be stacked onto the damage from Shock (e.g., Electric Shield will deal 810 damage if Shock's modified damage is 260 and the Passive bonus is 550 at the time Shock is cast).

Info

• Volt expends 100 energy to emit a powerful electric pulse over 20 meters. Any enemies that are hit with the initial pulse or that enter the pulse's area in first 3 / 3 / 4 / 4 seconds after the cast will become stunned for 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 seconds and emit arcs of electricity, shocking hostiles who come within 8 meters to inflict 250 / 375 / 500 / 600  Electricity damage per half second.
  • Does not require Line of Sight and bypasses the environment.
  • Affected targets that are not in range of other hostiles will begin to damage themselves after the first 4.5 seconds of Discharge.
    • If affected targets die but one is left alive, it will begin to damage itself after another 4.5 seconds.
    • If total stun duration or remaining duration is shorter than 4.5 seconds, affected target will take no damage.
    • At the casting point, the Discharge damage, electric arc damage, and stun duration remain at 100%, linearly decreasing until all reach 50% of their respective values at the maximum range from the cast point.
      • Electric arc damage does not falloff over the electric arc radius from individual enemies, only over the Discharge range.
  • Loot crates can also undergo the Tesla effect, but can only be charged once.
  • Volt's passive does affect Discharge, but the bonus damage is not simply added onto the ability's total damage output. Instead, the current bonus damage value is divided by the damage per tick value, rounded down to the nearest whole number, then multiplied by 0.5 seconds. This new value is then subtracted from the 4.5 second damage delay phase of Discharge, meaning Discharge will begin damaging the target sooner.
    • For example, a rank 3 Discharge with a max rank  Intensify and 1,000 bonus damage from Volt's passive will deal:

      $\text{1,200}\times \text{1.3}\times (\text{6s}-\text{4.5s}+\text{0.5s}\times \lfloor \frac{\text{1000}}{\text{600}\times \text{1.3}}\rfloor )=\text{3,120}$

      • This bonus will be applied only to the first enemy/object Discharge's propagation hits, meaning any other targets hit by Discharge will follow the normal damage calculation without Static Discharge's effects.
• Ability Synergy: Casting  Shock against a target under Discharge's effect will result in an overcharge, creating an area of effect burst emitted from the target.
• Has a cast time of ~1 second, affected by Casting Speed.
• Cannot be recast during the pulse's duration, and recasting will not refresh or stack the effect on already affected enemies.
