Notes[]

• Frenzy buff triggers only on headshots, and not other weakspots, such as the backpacks of most MOA variants. Similarly, shooting weakspots generated by either  Sonar or  Detect Vulnerability in places other than heads will have no effect either.
  • Headshots on corpses will not grant the buff.
• The fire rate bonus from Frenzy stacks multiplicatively after any equipped fire rate mods or fire rate bonuses.
• The +100%  Toxin from Frenzy is additive with elemental mods, and will combine with elemental mods equipped on the weapon, ex. having  Heated Charge or  Scorch equipped will make the Dual Toxocyst deal  Gas upon activating the buff.
  • The  Toxin bonus will take priority when combining with singular elements on Dual Toxocyst before other bonuses such as  Shock Trooper.
  • If the Dual Toxocyst is modded with a combined element such as Corrosive, the bonus toxin damage will be added to that element's damage.
• If Frenzy is triggered or if it disappears, this weapon makes a noise that will alert nearby enemies. This noise cannot be reduced with  Suppress or  Hushed Invisibility.
• Triggering the buff with the last bullet of the magazine does not require the user to reload the weapon before shooting again because it stops consuming ammo, and therefore is an effective candidate for  Synth Charge.

Incarnon Genesis[]

• Upon completion of The Duviri Paradox and Angels of the Zariman, and unlocking The Steel Path, players can earn  Dual Toxocyst Incarnon Genesis from The Circuit's Steel Path to place on their Dual Toxocyst with the help of Cavalero in the Chrysalith. This Incarnon Genesis form grants it evolutions to a transformation and newfound strength.

Evolution[]

• Installing the Dual Toxocyst Incarnon Genesis requires 20  Pathos Clamps, 70 Yao Shrubs and 80  Eevani.
• When installed, the first Evolution tier is unlocked. The following Evolution tiers, their requirements for unlocking them, and their related perks, are shown below;
  • Each challenge additionally grants 5,000 affinity to the weapon, affected by Affinity Boosters.

Evolution I[]

• Headshots charge Incarnon Transmutation; Alt Fire transmutes. Switching back will expend any remaining charge.
• Gain an Auto Fire mode and Ricochet.
  • Incarnon Form becomes fully automatic with higher Critical Chance, Critical Multiplier, Status Chance, Fire Rate, significantly less Recoil, and shots now ricochet to 1 nearby enemy per shot within 5 meters of the main target.
    • The ricochet prioritizes headshots and is capable of triggering Dual Toxocyst's Frenzy buff.
    • Additional pellets generated via Multishot can ricochet into different targets.
    • Ricochet rounds are affected by  Galvanized Shot and the base damage values of both Evolution II perks.
    • By using Punch Through every enemy hit with the main shot along the punch through line creates ricochet rounds.
    • Enemies in a  Ragdoll state cannot be hit by ricochet rounds so any grouping tool that isn't  Magus Anomaly or  Ensnare will prevent ricochet shots from hitting any of the other grouped targets.
• Mode switching is not instantaneous and has an animation equal to the weapon's reload speed.
• Incarnon Form is activated by filling the Incarnon Transmutation gauge that appears under the reticule by achieving headshots and then pressing the Alternate Fire button. 9 headshots will completely fill the gauge. A full gauge is not required to activate Incarnon Form.
  • Charges generate only on headshots, and not other weakspots, such as the backpacks of most MOA variants. Similarly, shooting weakspots generated by either  Sonar or  Detect Vulnerability in places other than heads will have no effect either.
  • Headshots on corpses do not build charges.
  • Individual Multishot bullets can build charges.
• Instead of drawing ammunition from its reserves, the Dual Toxocyst's Incarnon Form uses a separate "magazine" with each charge producing 30 rounds to a maximum of 270. Once all ammunition is expended, the Dual Toxocyst reverts to its normal form.
  • Incarnon Form's magazine is not affected by mods.
  • Incarnon Form is not affected by Ammo Efficiency (such as  Energized Munitions).
  • Charges and Incarnon Form persists through all activities, such as holstering, bleedout, or being disarmed. However, charges and Incarnon Form are removed upon death.
• Swapping to and from Incarnon Form will fully reload the normal form's magazine.

  • Challenge will reset from inflicting body shots or damage dealt from Companions. Status Effect damage does not reset the challenge.

• Perk 2: Neurotoxin:
  • On Headshot: +70%  Toxin for 3s.
• Perk 3: Ripper Rounds:
  • On Kill: +3 Punch Through for 7s.

Tips[]

• The headshot buff can completely counter the weapon's low innate fire rate and max ammo capacity.
• If modded with  Gas, the gas clouds deals a tick of damage each second, each tick has a chance to refresh the "Frenzy" buff.
• Use of the increased zoom module  Hawk Eye can make gaining the headshot buff easier, thus significantly increasing the weapon's damage outputs and versatility.
• The  Scourge synergizes well with these pistols as the speargun can debuff enemies with  Magnetize-like fields on their heads when thrown and left to allow it to recast its debuff at fixed intervals.
• The added  Toxin damage when landing headshots makes the pistols deceptively effective against any shielded  Corpus enemies.
• While under the effects of the triggered buff, the fast fire rate and unlimited ammo, combined with the low critical chance and average critical multiplier make rapid fire bodyshots more viable than aimed headshots.
•  Hydraulic Crosshairs can be triggered at the same time as the buff, though the low base critical chance makes this mod of limited utility.
• Installing  Steady Hands completely negates recoil while buff is active.

Trivia[]

• The Dual Toxocyst is the first infested dual pistol added to the game.
• Triggering the innate headshot buff or reloading the weapon will cause the Dual Toxocyst's barrel to open up like jaws, connected by infested tissue between its upper and lower parts.
