Notes[]

  • Each beam deals DmgSlashSmall64 Slash damage.
    • Damage is affected by Ability Strength mods.
    • Fully charging a tesla gives 100% status chance. However, the grenades can not inflict the DmgSlashSmall64 Slash status effect, regardless of status chance.
  • The range limit for two Teslas to make a pair is about 8m and is not affected by Ability Range.
  • Each Tesla can form a link with up to 4 other Teslas at once.
  • Teslas do not link when attached to entities, such as enemies, Warframes, Companions, the Defense Cryopod and Pickups.
  • For a link to form, a Tesla must link to either the first Tesla launched or an extension of it.

Maximization[]

Maximization is a form of specialization: mods may be blended to result in values that vary between the top-end limits listed here. Click any maximized link in the collapsible menu to learn how to build it.

Trivia[]

  • Upon release, Tesla Link used arcing electricity as the link animation, as shown on its card image. Update 15.2 (2014-11-13) changed the animation to resemble lasers instead.
  • Used to have a bug where links would often stay in the game forever, although invisible, damaging enemies who walked past where they used to be. This was eventually fixed over 2 years later, in Hotfix 19.3.2 (2016-12-14)

Bugs[]

  • Sometimes Teslas will refuse to link for clients even in positions where it should be able to.
