Harrow — First Sermon
Star Chart build. Condemn a pack for shields. Thurible for energy. Covenant before the scary room. Penance if you want fire rate and lifesteal. Primed Continuity and Primed Flow are the first real upgrade — not Blind Rage.

Why this build?
Star Chart for Junctions through the Outer Terminus. Steel Path is the next card, not this one.
Health: Inventory unknown — Mark what you own. Until then this is a recommendation, not a test you failed.
- Harrow is four setup buttons, then you shoot. He is not a caster nuke.
- Passive: full energy on spawn, double overshields. Condemn is how you stay in overshields.
- Headshots matter. Thurible and Covenant both pay extra for them.
Don’t use this for: Steel Path endurance · level-cap content
Accessible mods and a working energy / survivability loop
Bring: Any guns — Covenant will give them crit later. A decent primary is enough. Headshots pay extra on Thurible and Covenant.

Pocket card. Stick this on a second screen; the long version is the mission below.
- 1Condemn (1) a doorway. They chain in place. You gain shields per enemy.
- 2Hold Thurible (3) for a second or two, release. Kills (especially headshots) now dump energy to the squad.
- 3Covenant (4) before you peek a nasty room. Brief invuln, then a crit buff based on damage absorbed.
- 4Penance (2) spends shields for fire rate, reload, and lifesteal. Starter can skip it until Condemn is a habit.
First mission — press these buttons
