Titania — Tribute Court
Steel Path build. Cycle Tribute for Thorns DR, Dust accuracy, Full Moon companion damage, Entangle slow. Spellbind the squad. You are a fairy godparent.

Wrong drop or mechanic?
Why this build?
Steel Path for Defense, companions, squads that want DR and a slow, people who press 2 on purpose
Health: Not yet — Helminth, Steel Path, or Archon Hunts still closed. Play the Starter.
- Tribute is four buffs people forget exist. Thorns is actual DR. Dust makes bullets miss the pod.
- This is not the DPS pixie. Take Blitz to Exterminate.
- Spellbind the squad, not just yourself. The tap is a radius.
Don’t use this for: Capture / short missions · Exterminate speedruns · solo level-cap
Stronger mods, Arcanes, real synergy
You don’t need the shards to run the loop. They are a later ceiling, not a gate.
Bring: Companion + Pixia — Full Moon is a companion buff. Bring a real pet. Pixia still shoot — you are not unarmed.
Alternative if…
- Star Chart only → First Flight
- This is too much Forma / cost → First Flight — Star Chart

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

Court loop
Pocket card. Stick this on a second screen; the long version is the mission below.
- 1Hold Tribute (2) until you see Thorns (DR) or Dust (accuracy). Tap an enemy. Buff on.
- 2Spellbind (1) the objective tile so the squad cannot be status'd. Hold 1 to self-cast if they walked off.
- 3Lantern (3) a heavy as a lure if the pod is hungry.
- 4Razorwing (4) is still legal. Support Titania can fly. She just recasts 2 more than she Blitz-stacks.
First mission — press these buttons

Common mistakes
Tapping 2 without cycling
You stole Entangle when you wanted Thorns. Hold first.
