==Notes==
*When performing a heavy attack, the Caustacyst throws a toxic wave in the direction of the player's aim. This wave will travel up to 35 meters, dealing damage to all enemies it hits. The wave will also leave behind a temporary 4 second 20x2m trail of pools on the ground that deal 5 damage every second to enemies that stand on it.
**Wave has base damage of ~192 .
**Wave has Damage Falloff, reducing its damage by 100% at the end of wave.
**Wave range is not affected by or .
**Wave has infinite Punch Through.
**Corrosive pools will deal damage the moment it contacts the enemy, so enemies may be dealt up to 25 damage at base.
**The wave inherits any elemental damage from mods and can proc their status effects, having an approximated 10% base status chance.
*Enemies hit by the wave are also staggered, making them vulnerable to melee finishers (default ) and susceptible to stealth damage multipliers.
**Enemies stunned by these pools do not have their alert status changed; enemies can be damaged by the pools and still be killed for stealth kills as long as their stun animation is still playing.
**This allows players to launch a pool, then launch up to 3 more charge attacks before the enemy can become alerted.
