CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE
How to play this build.
Tenno.
Concentrated Arrow turns Artemis Bow into an explosion with the biggest radius in the game, and forced impact in that radius, so Internal Bleeding paints the whole room in slash.
Well of Life hangs an invulnerable target in the air for you to headshot over and over, nuking the room without chasing a new mark, and it makes you status- and knockdown-immune.
Prowl keeps you invisible.
How it works
Concentrated Arrow's headshot explosion has the largest radius
in the game (19.6m at max Range, 22.68m with Primed Firestorm), no falloff, is
silent, and does not stagger you.
It forces impact in that radius so Internal
Bleeding converts it to slash at 70%.
Well of Life is a permanent headshot target
that triggers the explosion repeatedly; Pool of Life turns it into four health
orbs (220 energy through Equilibrium) when it expires.
Crepuscular order
To get both Crepuscular's Strength and Spectral Serration
onto Artemis Bow: activate Artemis Bow first while visible, then cast Cloak Arrow
and stand in the bubble, then activate Prowl.
Playstyle
1.
Optional: drop an Afentis and stand in the bubble for the reload buff (speeds bow fire rate).
2.
Activate Prowl and Artemis Bow.
3.
Cast Well of Life on an enemy (up to three, one per chokepoint).
4.
Spam headshots onto the Well of Life target to nuke the room.
Duration, Efficiency, Range, Strength
Duration is not needed (helps Well of
Life uptime and Prowl drain).
Efficiency dumped because Pool of Life makes 220
energy per Well.
Range is the priority stat, maxed, for the explosion radius.
Strength scales Prowl's headshot multiplier and the Artemis Bow damage multiplier.
The mods
Blind Rage is the Strength.
Overextended, Stretch, Augur Reach
set the maxed Range.
Primed Flow, Equilibrium are the energy base.
Concentrated
Arrow and Pool of Life are the augments.
Corrosive Projection is a straight
damage lift against armour.
Flexible slots
Precision Intensify over Blind Rage or Augur Reach for a
no-downside Strength boost.
The exilus is open.
Helminth
Pick one.
Subsume over Navigator (4's replacement) or keep the kit.
- Well of Life is the build's engine if you keep it.
- Roar for a status double-dip; swap Pool of Life for Empowered Quiver and shoot from a dashwire.
Arcanes
Arcane Crepuscular for 30% Strength and a flat crit-damage add, Arcane
Rage for +180% Artemis Bow damage.
Focus
Any.
Madurai for Strength.
Weapon synergy
Artemis Bow is the weapon.
A non-bow primary statstick lets it
inherit the Vigilante bonus (Afentis for the reload buff, Mutalist Quanta for crit
damage, Scourge for a headshot bubble).
A Panzer primes viral for the low base
status chance.
Staying alive
Prowl invisibility plus Well of Life's status and knockdown
immunity within its radius.
It fails outside a Well's radius if you take a burst,
and to enemies that ignore stealth.
Energy
Pool of Life orbs through Equilibrium; terminate a Well early for an
emergency 220 energy.
Where it struggles
Bosses.
It wants a Well target and a stealth setup, so a
cold start is slow.
Artemis Bow cannot self-proc viral (0% status) so it needs a
companion primer.
Variants
A Roar dashwire variant.
An old Spectrorage version.
Strengths and weaknesses
Strong: the largest AoE in the game, silent and
non-staggering, invisible, status-immune, one forma.
Weak: weapon-carried, boss-
blind, needs a primer and a stealth setup.
Who runs this
Players who want a silent bow that erases rooms from cover,
without ever being seen.

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

headshot bonus does not touch the Concentrated Arrow area.

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

CEPHALON FIELD GUIDE
How to play this build.
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.
