CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE

How to play this build.

Tenno. Viral-electric Noctua built so only one mod (Galvanized Diffusion) ever needs a kill to stay stacked. Hornet Strike and Cascadia Flare carry the base damage.

The mods

Hornet Strike is unconditional damage; Primed Target Cracker is crit damage; Secondary Enervate lifts crit chance; Pistol Elementalist multiplies the electric damage-over-time; Galvanized Diffusion is the only kill-gated mod.

Lohk Canticle is flexible for Jahu Canticle if you want passive strip.

Swap Lethal Torrent for Magnetic Might against Thrax with external fire rate.

Where it struggles

Low base fire rate without buffs.

Slow reload.

Variants

The Fever Reader (#275) is the viral-heat Noctua; The Burning Page (#260) is the hybrid utility build.

Who runs this

Dante players who want steady damage without babysitting stacks.
