Tips

 * A freeze mod can be supremely beneficial for the Ignis, as it can help prevent enemies from drawing outside of the weapon's effective range.
 * One of the main disadvantages to the Ignis is its short range, which can potentially place you in unfavorable situations. Consider equipping this weapon on a durable Warframe (such as Rhino) to minimize any sort of risk in such a case.
 * It is a wise idea to equip a long-ranged weapon in your secondary slot when using the Ignis.
 * It is highly recommended to bring multiple boxes of rifle ammo when using this weapon.
 * Spraying a stream of fire straight in front of you may make it difficult to see, especially when zoomed-in.
 * To maximize your damage output use Serration, Split Chamber and all elementary damage mods as well as Piercing Hit. Since Speed Trigger, Vital Sense and Point Strike have no effect on this weapon.

Trivia

 * Was shown in the Developer Livestream #5.
 * Even though it shoots fire, one can attach Cryo Rounds to "Freeze" your enemies with fire.
 * It appears to be a modified Grakata.
