Jade — Deathbringer Grounded

Endgame build. Skip the sky. Roar over Glory. Symphony plus Eyes plus a real Incarnon. Jade as a hymn gun platform.

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

Tiles where flight feels bad, Incarnon lovers, people who want Symphony without managing an exalted pistol

Wrong drop or mechanic?

Don’t build this yet

First Hymn first

This loadout sits at Endgame. 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 Hymn

Why this build?

Endgame for Tiles where flight feels bad, Incarnon lovers, people who want Symphony without managing an exalted pistol

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

Play this in Defense
  • Not every tile wants a flying frame. This is Symphony as a weapon platform.
  • Roar plus Deathbringer is greedy and legal.
  • Keep Glory on Config A. This is Config B for hallways and Gloom-style defense.

Don’t use this for: ability-nuke as the damage · players without Helminth

Specialised investment for hard content

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

Bring: Primary (Incarnon) — Phenmor, Torid, Felarx, Laetum. Deathbringer is additive base damage — it loves weapons that already crit.

Alternative if…

Instead: First HymnInstead: First Hymn — Star ChartInstead: Artillery Angel — Steel PathInstead: Artillery Angel — Optimised

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 0/1 · required — Subsume Roar (Rhino)
  • Arcanes · recommended — 0/2 recommended
  • Shards · optional — Optional unless the card says a breakpoint

Investment: 4 Forma · Reactor · Helminth (Roar (Rhino)) · 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.

Helminth & shards

What to put on the body

Roar (Rhino) over Glory on High (4)

You will not fly. Roar double-dips with Deathbringer. Snapshot Seven into Roar and Eyes, then ride Deathbringer on the gun.

Helminth is locked. Tick it on Progress before you subsume.

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 Growing Power

    One named gap. The Silver Grove quest

  2. 60 minutes

    Growing Power, then Forma

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

  3. 120 minutes

    Subsume Roar (Rhino)

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

Ground loop

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

  1. 1Seven (2), then Roar (4) and Eyes (3) so both snapshot.
  2. 2Cycle to Deathbringer. Shoot.
  3. 3Judgment wells (1) on the lane so kills extend songs.
  4. 4You never leave the floor. Resilience if shields drop.

First mission — press these buttons

  1. 1

    Snapshot Seven into Roar and Eyes

    2

    2, then 4 and 3, then Deathbringer.

  2. 2

    Stay on the floor

    Flight is gone. The gun is the sky.

Common mistakes

  • Pressing 4 expecting to fly

    4 is Roar now. Config A still has Glory.
