Kuva (Variant)

==Kuva Weapons==
Kuva weapons are a special variant of Grineer weapons carried by Kuva Liches.
These weapons are generated from a Kuva Larvling and are awarded upon defeating a Kuva Lich and choosing to Vanquish them, which will automatically appear in the Foundry. Claiming these weapons bypasses the supposed Mastery Rank requirement. The weapons vary in attributes, dependent on the Lich the player has slain. The Energy Color on the weapon is depicted by what elemental bonus was augmented on the weapon during Lich creation and the progenitor Warframe. All weapons have an equal chance of spawning from a Kuva Lich.https://www.reddit.com/r/Warframe/comments/dz0tze/kuva_lich_data_weapon_drop_rates_elemental_bonus/

==Mechanics==
A Kuva variant of a weapon will only provide mastery points once. A second weapon of the same variant but with a different Lich name will not provide extra mastery. These weapons have a max rank of 40. To obtain the maximum rank, the player must polarize the weapon five times, with each Forma increasing the maximum possible rank by 2 (similar to ).
The Kuva weapons additionally have bonus damage of one damage type, ranging from 25-60% of the weapon's base damage determined randomly, with lower percentages being more common. The damage type of this bonus damage is determined by the Progenitor Warframe, as per this table.
Note: This additional bonus damage applies as weapon base damage, meaning elemental mods and status that scale from base / modified base damage will be affected.
