==Notes==
*When equipped without a Stance mod, the Heat Dagger adds a 4th lunging stab on its normal attack combo, which propels the Warframe a good distance forward, which is useful for catching up to moving enemies. It also has a 100% chance of inflicting a proc on contact. This effect is lost if one uses the stance, which replaces the lunge with a sweeping slash.
*Slam attacks always apply a proc, even if the weapon is modded to not deal damage.
