*Can equip the Zylok-exclusive mod.
*Unique trigger type allows for two rapid shots against tough targets, or careful shot management against many weaker opponents. First shot on button press, the second on button release.
==Acquisition==
This weapon was introduced during the The Pyrus Project event. To receive the weapon, players had to complete all four tasks related to the reconstruction of the Strata Relay: contributing 30 Pyrus Essence and 5 Relay Strut Components, completing 1 Simaris Daily Synthesis Task, and defeating the Grustrag Three 3 times. The weapon comes with a free weapon slot and a pre-installed Orokin Catalyst.
Since the event has concluded on all platforms with no returns, the Zylok is now potentially sold by Baro Ki'Teer in the Concourse section of the Tenno Relay for  and . Note that Baro Ki'Teer's stock changes with each appearance, and this weapon may not be available on a succeeding appearance.
The weapon can be traded, but only for unranked copies without Forma and Orokin Catalyst installed. The trading recipient must also have a Mastery Rank of at least 6.
==Notes==
===Incarnon Genesis===
*Upon completion of The Duviri Paradox and Angels of the Zariman, and unlocking The Steel Path, players can earn from The Circuit's Steel Path to place on their Zylok with the help of Cavalero in the Chrysalith. This Incarnon Genesis form grants it evolutions to a transformation and newfound strength.

==Trivia==
*The Zylok is the first and so far only duplex-fire weapon outside of the family of shotguns.
*While technically duplex in nature, it does make it the third 2-shot burst fire pistol in the game, alongside the and .
*The Zylok appears to have a turret magazine, as seen in the Turret gun. The experimental design was percussion-cap and had a cylinder with radial, outward facing chambers. This was quickly deemed too dangerous, since at least one chamber pointed towards the user's face, and it was possible to accidentally "chainfire" or fire all shots at once.
