Flying Monster Perk

• Enemies shot while airborne will die immediately, and their killing blows will also grant this perk.

How To Get The Manticore Catalyst

To get started with the Manticore, you’ll need to complete the Volantes Violentiam Quest, which is available in season passes during Season of the Seraph. After securing the catalyst, you’ll have access to the incredible perks mentioned above.

Gameplay and Strategies

Equipping the Manticore can significantly change your way of playing. Here’s what you need to do:

• Stay agile and keep moving in battle to maximize the SMG’s damage output using its flying capabilities.
• Use cover for shielded enemies, targeting those with exposed weakpoints (e.g., horns).
• Concentration firing is key since final blows will grant shield absorption. Focus on finishing opponents quickly to maintain control of the battlefield.

Using this strategy, you will enjoy the Manticore’s unique abilities and gameplay potential.
