[ Answered ] Why Voltshot doesn't* work like Incandescent without using their subjective subclasses?

[Lil C]-[ew C]-[ew is ☂д☂]

Incandescent burn on every shot but Voltshot seems like to be more present every two precision shots for some odd reason. Or am I using it wrong?

[robruckus65]

Finishing a reload within 5.3 seconds of a Weapon Kill grants Voltshot for 7 seconds.

While Voltshot is active, your next Weapon Hit consumes the buff and applies Jolt to the target.

Found the issue...Voltshotz won't work with Slideshot. If I reload the weapon standing up*, the other perk will activate but whenever I slide on the floor to reload the weapon upon a success kill. Voltshotz won't activate.

Bit disappointed because Incandescent with Slideshot do work together. Definitely the issue with Voltshot is the reload step.

The only difference is Incandescent doesn't require a reload after a final blow, Voltshot does.

You have to manually reload the weapon after a final blow to proc Voltshot, no perk that automatically reloads the weapon nor any ability such as Hunter's Marksman Dodge will proc Voltshot.

This is by design.

so they added a new perk called "Jolting Feedback".

yeah creative perk combinations were prohibited by bungie law in 853BC after the battle of consistency.
its been powercrept by jolting feedback now so yeah, grab the new smg when it drops and the pulse and phase out all your voltshot weapons.

Unfortunally is just Revenant seasonal weapon perk. It won't be capable to appear on Festival of the Lost weapons.

I was asking about Voltshotz perk because of Arcane Embrace shotgun. I have too much void and solar energy weapons and one arc. I was hoping to replace Compass Rose for this new shotty.

hm, the shotgun thats in the world loot is arc and gets eddy current/ voltshot or even discord/ chain reaction
honestly the verb isnt that important for really any arc builds and mostly just for stunning champiions so chain reaction is alot better.

Volt shot is used more for ad clear if anything and is comparable to chain lol
