Toxin can be an incredibly useful element in any build, and Malignant Force enhances rifles to deal significant Toxin damage while maintaining reliability.
This mod boosts Toxin damage per rank, giving rifles a strong offensive edge against armored and unshielded enemies alike, making it easier to cut through tougher targets.
In addition, it increases status chance, ensuring that elemental effects trigger more frequently, which benefits both pure Toxin setups and hybrid elemental combinations for maximum damage.
How To Get Malignant Force?
Malignant Force can be obtained by defeating Corrupted Vor, a powerful boss enemy that appears in high-level Orokin Void missions starting at level 40.
Corrupted Vor will typically arrive mid-mission, often after players have completed an objective or killed a set number of enemies, announcing his presence with a taunting transmission.
Once defeated, Corrupted Vor has a chance to drop Malignant Force, making each encounter an opportunity to acquire the mod.
If the mod does not drop, players must repeat these Orokin Void missions until Malignant Force is eventually obtained.
Malignant Force Mod Effects
Malignant Force increases Toxin damage and status chance for rifles, scaling by 15% per rank for a maximum of 60% at rank 3.
This makes rifles more effective at applying Toxin procs, letting you combine elements or strip enemy armor with greater consistency.
The mod works additively with other elemental or status mods, meaning it can stack with combinations like High Voltage or Rime Rounds for devastating elemental effects.
Even a single instance of Malignant Force significantly improves rifle damage output while increasing the likelihood of inflicting status effects, making your weapon more versatile in combat.

Verdict
Malignant Force is an excellent choice for any rifle-based build that wants to maximize Toxin damage while also improving status application.
It is particularly effective for players looking to combine elemental effects or enhance their crowd control capabilities through consistent Toxin procs or whichever elemental combination you make.
Overall, this mod turns standard rifles into more dangerous and versatile weapons, giving them both raw damage and utility potential in prolonged encounters.
