Voruna — Raksh Primer
Steel Path build. Fangs of Raksh slaps five random statuses at 10 stacks. The corpse spreads them. You are a walking Condition Overload factory.

Why this build?
Steel Path for Status weapons, Influence melees, people who like watching health bars grow extra icons
Health: Not yet — Helminth, Steel Path, or Archon Hunts still closed. Play the Starter.
- Fangs is the best free primer in the game that does not ask you to fire a kitgun.
- Random statuses means you do not get to pick Viral every time. The volume still wins.
- Hold-2 parks Raksh as status resistance. Tap 2 is this config.
Don’t use this for: 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: Status melee / secondary — Condition Overload melee, Epitaph, or anything that likes a full status salad. Fangs is the primer. You are not the DoT.
Alternative if…
- Star Chart only → First Pack
- This is too much Forma / cost → First Pack — Star Chart
- You wanted the ability loop, not guns → First Pack

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