ABILITIES
Ivara PrimePASSIVE Senses nearby enemies within 50m.
Quiver
Cycle through and shoot one of four tactical arrows. Cloak creates a stationary bubble that cloaks Ivara and allies. Dashwire creates a traversable zipline. Noise emits a high-pitched sound to attract enemies. Sleep puts enemies to sleep.
Navigator
Assume control of any projectile launched by Ivara and guide it to the target.
Prowl
Become invisible and steal loot from unsuspecting enemies or take out prey with deadly headshots.
Artemis Bow
Summon a mighty bow and unleash a volley of devastating arrows.
CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE
How to play this build.
Tenno. Stay invisible in Prowl, stand on a dashwire for the accuracy and steady aim, and let Empowered Quiver plus a Nourish subsume buff whatever you are shooting. Artemis Bow is there if you want it.
How it works
Prowl invisibility plus a dashwire for stable DPS.
Range is dumped (Empowered Quiver and Prowl are self-cast).
Nourish subsumed adds viral and energy.
Silence all loud weapons with a hush exilus so shooting does not break invisibility.
Helminth
Pick one.
Nourish for energy and viral, Xata's Whisper for double-dipped headshots, Roar for status weapons, Dispensary for full energy refills in Prowl.
Weapon synergy
Innately silent weapons (Daikyu, Fulmin) or any weapon with a silencer mod.
A non-bow primary statstick for Artemis Bow's Vigilante bonus.
Staying alive
Prowl invisibility.
Thin defense otherwise; stay unseen.
Fails to AoE that ignores stealth and to toxin.
Where it struggles
Entirely weapon-carried.
Bosses take the weapon.
Loud weapons need silencing.
Variants
The Silent Detonation (#057) is the Concentrated Arrow room nuke.
Strengths and weaknesses
Strong: permanent stealth, a solid weapon buff, silent, comfortable.
Weak: selfish, weapon-carried, boss-blind.
Who runs this
Players who want an invisible, silent platform for a favourite primary.

Tenno. This is only for the Concentrated Arrow augment, which turns Artemis Bow's volley into a single crit shot with an area on impact. Stack violet primary-electric shards to feed the burst.
The mods
Galvanized Chamber is multishot; do not use Primary Acuity, its headshot bonus does not touch the Concentrated Arrow area.
Spectral Serration is base damage while invisible; Critical Delay and Vital Sense are crit; Rifle Elementalist adds a 1.9x multiplier to the bleed; Primed Firestorm widens the area with warframe range.
Where it struggles
Ivara-locked.
Needs the shard investment.
Draw speed.
Who runs this
Ivara players building around Concentrated Arrow.

The Volley Fan
A low-forma general-use volley with blast or electric

Tenno. The plain Artemis Bow build: no Concentrated Arrow, just a wide seven- arrow volley. Blast pairs with Xata's Whisper for area; electric hits harder on single targets.
The mods
Use Serration, not Galvanized Aptitude, which currently does not apply to Artemis Bow.
Galvanized Chamber is multishot; Critical Delay and Vital Sense are crit; Thermite Rounds plus Rime Rounds make blast.
For electric, swap for High Voltage plus Stormbringer.
Element options
Blast with Xata's Whisper subsumed makes the volley area (Xata procs off the blast proc).
Electric is the single-target choice.
Where it struggles
Ivara-locked.
Draw speed.
Volley spread wastes arrows at range.
Variants
The Concentrated Bolt (#216) is the Concentrated Arrow burst build.
Who runs this
Ivara players who want a simple bow without the augment.
