Welcome to The First Descendant Frenzied Locomotive Build. This Frenzied Locomotive Build is updated for Season 3 Episode 3. The Frenzied Locomotive is a machine gun that achieves an increased rate of fire by heating its specially coated barrel. It was given a somewhat aggressive name because it relentlessly fires bullets until it reaches a critical temperature that triggers its safety mechanism.

WORK IN PROGRESS, THIS IS A TEMPLATE.

Weapon Cores

 

Weapon Cores juice up your damage quite tremendously. However, especially the later-level Weapon Cores are difficult to get. So start with whatever weapon cores you have available. Weapon Cores drop in the Void Erosion Purge endgame activity.

Higher level Weapon Cores drop in the higher level Void Erosion Purge levels in The First Descendant. However, you can gradually work towards the highest level. I recommend trying to get to level six as soon as possible, since it won’t require to clear many stages and will already increase the power of your weapon tremendously.

  • Free Augmentation Icon TFDFire Rate (Free Augmentation)
