The Dual Viciss gained popularity when it first came out in the Techrot Encore Update, where players could finally use these dual sickles against the Scaldra and other enemies.
These dual sickles have a fast attack speed and deadly combos depending on the Stance Mod that you equip and along with that, it features innate Gas Damage.
What makes this weapon even more dangerous is the fact that it can provide you with a boost in both Movement Speed and Attack Speed when the Gas Status Effect is triggered.
Dual Viciss Builds
1) Critical Sickles (Critical Damage Build)
Dual Viciss has a base Critical Chance of 23% and with this build, it gets boosted up to 50.6% and this scales even further once you get a combo going since Blood Rush is included.
Adding Voltaic Strike to the build is optional as we just put this in for the stun effect and damage over time that chains when the Electricity Status Effect triggers.
Maiming Strike has been added to the build for when you want to get some spin attack in between combos and Berserker Fury has been added for increased Attack Speed.
Condition Overload can be extremely useful for this build since you already have the Gas Status Effect ready to be triggered and if you have a Primer Weapon, you can deal even more damage.
2) Status Sickles (Status Chance Build)
With a Status Chance of 29%, there is a lot you can do with the Dual Viciss and we decided to go full-on Status Chance with this build and some damage of course.
Equipping Virulent Scourge, Voltaic Strike, Volcanic Edge, and Vicious Frost, the build gets Blast, Gas, and Corrosive Damage Types that can all be triggered often.
The Status Chance has been boosted to 116% and this makes it easy to inflict Status Effects when attacking your enemies. (Carnis Mandible is optional for this build)
The combination of Status Effects, damage over time and extra damage caused by Condition Overload can help you easily melt your targets in no time.
3) Hybrid Sickles (Critical and Status Chance Build)
If you love the idea of applying Status Effects and finishing off enemies with Critical Damage, this will be one of the best Dual Viciss builds that you can start with.
Since we already have an innate Gas Damage Type, we decided to just go with one Elemental Damage and Status pair to add another Elemental Damage Type.
With a status Chance of 63.8%, you will be able to get a ton of Status Effects to trigger while the combination of Blood Rush, Organ Shatter, and True Steel grants you Critical Chance and Damage.
Condition Overload has been added to the build since you will have Status Effects triggering from time to time and this works well when the Critical Damage takes place.
Verdict
What makes the Dual Viciss unique is the innate Gas Damage since this is a combination of two different elements that can come in handy as well as its unique trait.
The bonus Movement Speed and Attack Speed stack with other Mods provide you with similar bonuses, which can make your Warframe extremely fast.
Keep in mind that the range of these dual sickles is a bit short, but you can often compensate for this by replacing Mods with Reach or Primed Reach.
