CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE

How to play this build.

Tenno. Atomos's beam arcs from the first target to several nearby ones. Built Incarnon-off for pure heat status stacking, it blankets a crowd in fire with no aim required.

Evolutions

Hoplite Virtue at II on shielded frames that break shields often; Paladin's Virtue otherwise.

The mods

Galvanized Diffusion is multishot; Pistol Elementalist boosts status damage; Primed Expel matches the faction and double-dips; Scorch plus Primed Heated Charge stack heat, Pistol Pestilence plus Frostbite add viral.

Where it struggles

Short chain range.

No crit ceiling.

Ammo economy.

Who runs this

Players who want a low-effort chaining fire beam.
