Star Chart2–3 FormaModerateHigh confidenceStar ChartSteel Path
First Scope — Star Chart
Seek paints weak points through walls. Evade is invis. Resupply reloads and paints an element. Neutralizer can wait one forma. Primed Continuity and Primed Flow are the first real upgrade — not Blind Rage.
Junctions through the Outer Terminus. Steel Path is the next card, not this one.
- Steel Path ready: Arcanes are fair game, shards can wait.
- Content: Steel Path matched against what this loadout is actually for.
- Playstyle: Exalted Neutralizer.
- Unlock Helminth, Steel Path, or Archon Hunts on Progress and The Neutralizer — Steel Path replaces this.
