Does Cryosthesia 77k count towards Energy Weapon Kills?
This new Season of the Splicer sidearm is in the top slot, the 'kinetic slot', but is a Stasis weapon. This means it deals Stasis damage and and counts towards kills with Stasis.
However, as it has an energy type, just like Solar, Arc and Void. Does this weapon count as an Energy Weapon for bounties or Exotics which specify energy weapon kills.
Such an exotic might be Verity's Brow which has the following perk
Energy weapon kills grant Death Throes, which provides a bonus to the damage of your grenades and grants you grenade energy. When you have Death Throes and throw a grenade, nearby allies gain greatly increased grenade regeneration for a short time.
Best Answer
The short answer is No. The weapon is in the kinetic slot. Stasis is a kinetic type, not an energy type.
