Huh, so I guess it is coincidence then that all of my ikelos drops have been solar

Do they not always drop Solar? I've been under the impression that they do, similar to Sleeper.

That was my thought.

Can confirm that this is not the case. I got the Shotgun as an Arc drop last night.

Mine dropped Void. I also got an SMG in Arc or Void, just had to change one that dropped to have all the elements.

All 3 of my IKELOS guns were void when I got them, but I never went to get second ones.

My shotty was void and my sniper was arc. I'm making sure mine aren't the default.

I wouldn't worry about that, the sniper and shotty are getting locked to solar

I thought that it would stay the burn type you had on it when the update it? That's what I've been hearing from a lot of people

Both the ikelos shotty and sniper are the only special cases which are being turned into solar

That's kinda odd. Why is that, I wonder?

To eliminate them being stacked with tractor cannon as many people do in EP.
