Maligned Harvest is an Artifact Perk.

Acquisition

Unlocked on tier 4 of the Tablet of Ruin Seasonal Artifact during Episode: Heresy.

Usage

When this perk is unlocked, successfully triggering Volatile explosions builds toward a powerful area debuff effect.

Volatile Trigger Requirement

• Requires triggering Volatile explosions five times within a short time window
• Volatile can be applied through various means:
  • Volatile Rounds from weapons or abilities
  • Void abilities that grant Volatile
  • Other artifact perks that apply Volatile

Weaken Effect

Once the requirement is met:

• The next Void damage dealt applies a 15% Weaken debuff
• The Weaken effect covers a small area around the impact point
• Weakened enemies take 15% increased damage from all sources
• The area-of-effect application can affect multiple enemies simultaneously

Strategic Applications

• Particularly effective with Void builds that can reliably trigger Volatile
• The 15% Weaken is a significant damage multiplier for the entire fireteam
• Area application makes it valuable for crowd control and group damage scenarios
• Considered one of the best perks in tier 4 due to its team damage benefits

Maligned Harvest transforms consistent Volatile play into a powerful team utility, making it an essential pick for Void-focused builds and activities requiring high damage output.
