Harrow — Tribunal

Optimised build. Tribunal: Condemn also applies Penance, Penance also applies Condemn. Wave of chains that also heals. Range stacked. The room kneels.

Wrong drop or mechanic?

Don’t build this yet

First Sermon first

This loadout sits at Optimised. It wants Forma, Helminth, or shards you may not have. Play the Starter until those systems are open — then this page is the upgrade, not the homework.

Open First Sermon

Why this build?

Optimised for Defense, Interception, people who want Harrow to press 1 as a gun

Health: Not yet — Helminth, Steel Path, or Archon Hunts still closed. Play the Starter.

Play this in Defense
  • Tribunal is the CC identity. Range mods are damage mods here.
  • Line of sight matters. Don't Condemn a wall.
  • This is slower than Lasting Vow in an open tile and better on a chokepoint.

Don’t use this for: Capture / short missions · Exterminate speedruns · solo level-cap

Helminth, shards, and a finished configuration

You don’t need the shards to run the loop. They are a later ceiling, not a gate.

Bring: Any weapons — They are chained. Headshots are free. A status primary finishes. Range is the CC.

My test

Did this still work for you?

Your note, in this browser. Separate from Codex verification — the stamp on the card is editorial, this is yours.

Readiness

Inventory unknown

Not checked — add your collection. You have not failed a test.

  • Required mods 0/9 · required — 0/9 named
  • Forma 0/4 · required — 4 on the card. Codex does not track installed Forma.
  • Helminth · optional — Not required
  • Arcanes · recommended — 0/2 recommended
  • Shards · optional — Optional unless the card says a breakpoint

Investment: 4 Forma · Reactor · 2 shards · 4 specialised mods. Typical farm ~4–6 hours. Trade if a route is vaulted.

Codex Checked · Compared against current game data for this update. · Update 43.5 · 5 Sept 2026 · PC · Current

Medium confidence. A solid recommendation with more situational dependencies. Confidence is not verification. Verification is separate: Codex Checked against Update 43.5.

Your next step

Next: Lasting Vow — Endgame

Unlock Helminth, Steel Path, or Archon Hunts before this upgrade is honest.

Tonight

What is actually up

30 minutes, one hour, or two — matched to this loadout, not a dump of the Origin System.

  1. 30 minutes

    Farm Corrosive Projection

    One named gap. Open Nightwave

  2. 60 minutes

    Corrosive Projection, then Forma

    Finish the missing named card, then spend a Forma if a polarity is still fighting you.

  3. 120 minutes

    One Archon Hunt

    If you are logging off after this, stop at the named component. Do not start a second Forma session tired.

Chain loop

Pocket card. Stick this on a second screen; the long version is the mission below.

  1. 1Condemn (1) every doorway. Tribunal also applies Penance — fire rate and lifesteal land on you, chains land on them.
  2. 2You can tap Penance (2) and also chain people. Same augment, both directions.
  3. 3Covenant (4) on the wave that actually hurts.
  4. 4Thurible (3) if the squad is dry. Optional on this config.

First mission — press these buttons

  1. 1

    1 the door

    1

    They chain. You also got Penance. Fire rate and lifesteal are on.

    You will know it worked when: A long chain wave. Shields up. Fire rate up.

  2. 2

    Don't aim at a wall

    Line of sight. The wave stops on geometry.

Common mistakes

  • Tiny Range

    Then Tribunal is a handshake, not a hallway.

When this feels easy
