The Chain Reaction

Crucible Blast wants both grouping (so one beam hits many) and armour strip (so its damage lands), neither of which Qorvex's own kit does well, so both come from a subsume or a companion.

Hitting a Chyrinka Pillar with the beam empowers it for 5s, letting its pulses carry the chain reaction to enemies you are not aiming at.

Fused Crucible makes you invulnerable and status-immune while beaming.

Arcane Universal Fallout floods energy off radiation kills.

1.

Tap 1 to plant two Chyrinka Pillars in separate areas but within line of sight.

2.

Tap 3 (Disometric Guard) for status immunity, or keep a subsume up.

3.

Tap 2 (Containment Wall) to group enemies in a line and strip (with Wrecking Wall).

4.

Tap 4 and beam the group while clipping both Pillars each pass.

Chyrinka Pillar's 35s base tolerates negative Duration; Duration also affects Fused Crucible drain.

Efficiency at 45% because Universal Fallout floods energy on radiation kills.

Range is maxed for Pillar radius, Containment Wall grouping and beam explosions.

Strength scales the beam and the Containment Wall strip (200%, or 164% with Corrosive Projection).

Blind Rage, Precision Intensify are the Strength.

Overextended, Stretch set the maxed Range.

Primed Continuity holds Duration.

Primed Flow is the pool.

Wrecking Wall is the strip.

Fused Crucible is the invulnerable beam.

Corrosive Projection lowers the strip threshold.

Precision Intensify to Umbral Intensify if you lack it.

Wrecking Wall drops for Streamline or Transient Fortitude if you subsume Ophanim Eyes for the strip.

Umbral Fiber for a casual EHP tank (~146k).

The exilus is open.

Fused Crucible is total invulnerability while beaming.

Between beams, shield gate off Containment Wall with an Augur mod.

Or casual-tank on Qorvex's 875 base armour plus an armour mod plus Adaptation for ~146k EHP to about level 300.

Pick one.

Subsume over Disometric Guard (Fused Crucible already covers invulnerability and status).

- Ophanim Eyes for a slower strip that works without leaving Fused Crucible, freeing the Wrecking Wall slot.

- Roar to boost the beam and weapons.

- Nourish for extra energy sustain.

- Breach Surge for blinds and radiation sparks (thematic).

- A grouping ability (Airburst, Larva, Pull, Coil Horizon) if Containment Wall's line grouping is not enough.

Arcane Universal Fallout is near-mandatory for energy (Equilibrium otherwise).

Molt Augmented for Strength.

Molt Efficiency or Arcane Energize as swaps.

Any.

Madurai for Strength and cast speed.

Qorvex's passive gives +3 punch-through to all weapons, so drop punch-through mods on weapons that want it (Dual Toxocyst Incarnon, Soma Prime Incarnon).

A Grimoire for viral priming, passive energy and passive strip.

A Nautilus with Cordon for grouping.

Fused Crucible invulnerability while beaming, plus shield gating between, plus the casual armour tank.

It fails to toxin in the gaps and to being caught out of Fused Crucible with no gate.

Arcane Universal Fallout floods it on radiation kills; add Equilibrium or Streamline if it runs thin.

Its own grouping and strip are weak, so it leans on a subsume or companion for both.

Line-of-sight tiles.

Bosses.

Movement in Fused Crucible is very slow.

An Ophanim Eyes strip variant.

A casual EHP-tank variant.

Strong: a strong chain nuke, total invulnerability while beaming, status immunity, high base armour.

Weak: depends on external grouping and strip, slow in Fused Crucible, boss-blind.

Players who want a caster that stands invulnerable and beams a grouped, stripped room into a chain reaction.
