Even though launchers aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, it’s worth having at least one solid one in your inventory in The First Descendant. Luckily, there’s no need to grind for Ultimate launchers, as there’s a powerful rare launcher called Vestigial Organ.
The Vestigial Organ is a rare launcher with some of the highest damage potential among launchers. It’s easy to get and even easier to build, so here’s our best build for the Vestigial Organ in The First Descendant.
Best Vestigial Organ Modules in The First Descendant
The Module choice for the Vestigial Organ is somewhat limited. You don’t need Critical Hit because its base Critical Hit Rate is only one percent, and you also don’t need Weak Point Damage because it’s an AoE explosive weapon you can’t consistently hit weak points with. This leaves you with basic offensive stats like Firearm ATK and stats that boost attribute damage.
Here are some of the recommended Modules for the Vestigial Organ:
| Module | |
|---|---|
| Attribute Enhancement (e.g. Chill, Fire) | Increases specific attribute’s ATK based on Firearm ATK |
| Bullet Rain | Increases Fire Rate |
| Fire Rate UP | Increases Fire Rate |
| Weapon Tuning | Increases Rounds per Magazine |
| Expand Weapon Charge | Increases Rounds per Magazine |
| Rifling Reinforcement | Increases Explosive ATK |
| Better Weapon Weight | Increases Weapon Change Speed |
| Recycling Genius | Increases Reload Time |
Aside from stats that boost your raw damage, try to get a few Modules in with Reload Time and Rounds per Magazine. Launchers are very clunky to reload, so any stats that can help with that are a bonus.
Remember that for Rounds per Magazine to work on a launcher, you need to get it to at least 25 percent, which adds one round to the mag.
Best Vestigial Organ stats in The First Descendant
As always, the stats on the weapon are very similar to what you’re looking for in Modules. Prioritize stats that increase the weapon’s general damage, like Firearm ATK. Attribute ATK increase also works fine on launchers.
Here are the recommended stats for Vestigial Organ:
- Firearm ATK
- Attribute ATK
- Bonus Firearm ATK
- Rounds per Magazine
- Weapon Change Speed
I wouldn’t recommend going for the Bonus Firearm ATK (vs. Colossus) as you would on many other weapons because, in Void Intercept Battles, you want to hit weak points, and that’s easier to do with a precision High-Power Round weapon, like the In a Blink shotgun or a sniper.
