Why this build?
Steel Path for Squad energy, long Survival, people who picked Harrow to feed casters
Health: Not yet — Helminth, Steel Path, or Archon Hunts still closed. Play the Starter.
- Thurible is the reason casters want you in the squad. Strength is the refund. Duration is the window.
- Warding Thurible makes the channel safe. Don't skip it on this config.
- You can still Covenant. This loadout just admits 3 is the identity.
Don’t use this for: content this card does not name
Stronger mods, Arcanes, real synergy
You don’t need the shards to run the loop. They are a later ceiling, not a gate.
Bring: Headshot weapons — Thurible pays extra on headshots. A hitscan primary. You are not a nuke, you are a battery.
Alternative if…
- Star Chart only → First Sermon
- This is too much Forma / cost → First Sermon — Star Chart

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

- 3Headshot. Energy orbs of light dump on anyone in range. Recast when the window dies.
- 4Covenant (4) if the tile is actually dangerous. You are a battery, not a hero, until 4 is up.
