Nagantaka

The Nagantaka is 's signature crossbow, firing bolts with a very high status chance in a semi-automatic fashion. It features an Alternate Fire that unleashes all remaining rounds in the magazine in a rapid-fire volley. Additionally, killing an enemy through a headshot will boost the speed of Nagantaka's next reload. Bolts receive Punch Through when fired by Garuda.
It can be sold for .
==Characteristics==
*This weapon deals mostly damage.
*Headshot kills from direct bolt damage boosts reload speed by 50%.
*Guaranteed proc.
**Guaranteed proc may make it hard to land consecutive headshots to trigger its passive.
*Alternate Fire shoots all remaining ammunition in the magazine in a quick burst, at approximately 2.3 times its listed standard Fire Rate.
**Benefits from magazine increasing mods to further increase the burst's damage.
**Abilities can be cast during the burst without interrupting it. However, Stagger effects such as a self-stagger from a explosion will interrupt the burst.
*Innate 1 meter Punch Through if used by .
*On kill, bodies will follow the arrow that killed them, damaging anyone in their path and pinning the corpse to walls.
*Counts as a bow in regards to fire rate mods, doubling the fire rate bonus.
*Can use the bow-exclusive mod.
*Innate polarity.
==Acquisition==
The Nagantaka's blueprint can be purchased from the Market.
==Note==
*When used by or , the Nagantaka gains 1 meter innate Punch Through.
*Can be used in bow-only Sortie missions.
*In its semi-automatic primary fire mode it can be difficult to achieve its full listed firing rate, especially with Speed Trigger equipped, given the forced delay after each shot where if the fire button is pressed too early it is simply not registered for the next shot.
*The Alternate Fire of the Nagantaka will eject all of the remaining ammunition in the magazine in a single burst.
**If buffed with unlimited ammo such as from the Reactant Buff, the weapon will only fire its magazine amount at a time, with small delays between each trigger pull.
**Unlike or , Nagantaka can still be aimed during the burst, allowing the weapon to still benefit from Acolyte Mods. However, recoil can be a bit of an issue when trying to aim the entire burst at a single target especially if is used, so you may need to equip to account for it.
**Given the much higher damage-per-shot of the Nagantaka compared to other Burst and Auto rifles, while in mid-burst the Nagantaka has a higher total DPS rate than all of them.
*Being knocked over will not interrupt your burst from the weapon's alt fire.
*"Precision Reload", its reload speed buff only triggers from headshot kills from direct bolt damage. It does not trigger if killed by a damage over time effect made from a headshot's status proc.
**No weak spots other than actual heads will trigger this effect.
**Headshots on invulnerable enemies will still grant this effect, but not with invulnerable bosses.
**The buff lasts approximately 3 seconds. 
*Despite the Alternate Fire's Alarming noise level, it does not break 's . However enemies will still act alerted.
==Tips==
*Because procs are common with this weapon, adding damage to increase damage done to enemy health through proccing, will allow for quick dispatching of enemies, bypassing their armor.
*Rolling can be used to interrupt a burst from the secondary attack, useful for not wasting ammo if a target has died within the first few shots of the burst.
*As with most weapons with the ability to unload an entire magazine in a single burst, the Nagantaka's alt-fire synergizes well with 's short-tap bubble, as the quick torrent of shot can pulverize crowds of enemies caught in the bubble. Mag can also take advantage of the weapon's high status chance to inflict deadly status effects on pulled enemies.
==Trivia==
*Nagantaka (नागान्तक), Sanskrit for "The Ender of Snakes", "Naga" = Snake, and "Antaka"= Ender, was one of Garuda's alternate names. This name was given to Garuda as he, according to the mythology, preferred eating the meat of snakes.
*Unlike most other crossbows, Nagantaka's design is based on a reverse-draw crossbow.
*Nagantaka and it’s Prime variation both have a firerate Of 2.5. This is perfectly on the dot for the multiplier for Internal Bleeding. While it’s unlikely that this is intentional, it is a coincidence that the Blood-Themed warframe’s signature weapon works perfectly with the mod named Internal Bleeding.
