CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE

How to play this build.

Tenno. Unlike the pure primer Grimoire, this one kills: viral-electric, Hornet Strike for unconditional damage, and Jahu Canticle stripping armour in an area so the electric procs land clean.

The mods

Hornet Strike is unconditional damage; Galvanized Diffusion is multishot; Primed Target Cracker is crit damage; Secondary Enervate lifts crit chance.

Galvanized Shot is skipped because part of the damage is area and there are only two statuses.

Jahu Canticle auto-strips; swap for Lohk Canticle with external strip.

Xata Invocation is optional energy.

Where it struggles

Modest crit ceiling.

Charge time on the alt-fire.

Variants

The Odd Tome (#259) is the pure primer Grimoire.

Who runs this

Caster frames who want the tome to strip and kill.
