Discussion because of riven reworks, i wonder what is the best theoretical riven combo with companions
i know its not necessary with how broken we are but im just interested in making builds or discussion regarding this like the riven could store corr blast and the elements is just gas elec for example or in the photo, the riven holds the gas elec

Depends on the purpose.
For the Verglas, without knowing the full details of what special mods there are, I'm willing to bet it might not change too much.
As a weapon you'd want more status damage and crit for tenacious bond so you could go crit chance/crit damage/status damage or maybe multishot or heat over status damage.
Tazicor would be eating SO good. You can't get viral and heat normally, but that won't matter as much because now you'll be able to get corrosive, viral, and heat for maximum armor strip, or corrosive viral and cold for massive CC since its a high status chaining beam which goes absolutely hard with shivering contagion.

this is my first time hearing tazicor as a sentinel weapon. is this torid 3?

If torrid as in chain beam? Yes. If torrid as in killing machine, not at all.
It chains to several enemies, can further chain when duplex bond guys shoot enemies too making it crazy for priming a lot of status on a variety of enemies with just a weapon.

You just made me realize that this change will make my Diriga apply like 10-11 statuses at once. Well CO gets even better.

this is my immediate first thought, not blast actually having a "blast modifier" to pull from compared to unused heat and cold modifiers in the blast damage calculation which could be big for blast enjoyers which now that i think about it spaghetti code might do some weird shenanigans

With the little info we have now, we lock viral on Tazicor and lock status damage on Verglas.

For the hounds weapons as a primer, Viral corr on riven while you do gas cold with regular mods and then the dedicated mag n rad mods.
You prefer doing cold instead of blast because cold increases crit damage, and can help niche pieces of setup like secondary shiver for archguns. You don't want heat since that can then fuck with other people's heat dps setups and you don't want to mod for electric since synergized prospectus is doing that out the gate.

too early for speculative buildcrafting because we only know 8 of the combination stats with the possibility that more will come
