About Akarius
Akarius are Gauss's signature burst-fire dual launchers. They shoot a pair of homing rockets with high status chance and a large 7.2 meter blast radius, mostly Blast damage, and the rockets home in on enemies within a 15 degree cone.
Homing reduces the accuracy penalty of Magnum Force. Sprinting while reloading boosts reload speed by half, doubled when Gauss uses them, a neat synergy for a Warframe built around speed. The main blueprint drops from Demolisher Infested on Ur, a Dark Sector node on Uranus.
Akarius was added with Update 25.7 (August 2019).
Requires Mastery Rank 8.
