CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE

How to play this build.

Tenno. On dense maps, gas on Bladestorm turns each mark into a spreading cloud. Shadow Clones has a real 5% base status (the listed number is wrong), so Volcanic Edge plus Weeping Wounds at twelve combo brings it to about 30%.

The mods

Volcanic Edge plus Proton Snap build gas; Weeping Wounds pushes status with combo; Lasting Sting extends the clouds; Covert Lethality plus Finishing Touch drive the Bladestorm finisher damage; Melee Crescendo stacks a gun buff.

Where it struggles

Ash-locked.

Gas immunity.

Bladestorm marking rhythm.

Variants

The Copied Blades (#314) is the true-damage one-shot Bladestorm.

Who runs this

Ash players clearing dense Steel Path tilesets.
