Ps4 – Does the throwing distance of thrown melee weapons get effected by range mods

ps4warframe

So, I have a Kestrel, and want it to be able to go ridiculously far on a throw. Do range mods effect how far my Tenno can throw it?

Best Answer

No. Range mods only affect the melee attacks you use, not thrown projectiles.

From the wiki:

Reach increases the range of a melee weapon's attacks, except Glaive(Prime) & Kestrel throws. Reach also increases the range at which Sentinels can attack enemies if installed on a Sentinel Weapon.

If you're looking to increase the throwing distance, the only choice is to build Glaive Prime, which has shown in tests to have a slightly longer range than it's normal counterpart, the Glaive, and the Kestrel.
