Garuda Blending Talons Build (new augment)

Playstyle of this build is fast, primarily melee, with lots of mobility.

  • Focus on melee with her (now fixed) claws.

  • Use her 1 to leap from pack to pack and keep your frontal shield up, while also building up the channelled attack.

  • Use her 2 to heal your team while also cc'ing priority targets.

  • Use her 3 to replenish your energy and buff your damage simultaneously.

  • TAP her 4 in a group of enemies to proc the augment before slicing and dicing (this will rapidly build your combo counter).

  • Her channelled 4 into channelled 1 combo still works fine to clear a room when you're ready to nuke.

Substitutions and Tips:

  • Quick Thinking, Adaptation, and Umbral Fiber are (in my opinion) must-haves for survivability. Remember to keep your health/energy up with her second and third abilities to sustain Quick Thinking.

  • [Vitality] feels like a wasted stat on Garuda to me, but if you can't live without it, you CAN replace Umbral Fiber with Umbral Vitality.

  • Natural Talent is huge QOL for Garuda but is not required. You could replace this slot with more survivability or range.

  • Power Drift is a flexible mod slot (can swap for more survivability or range). Recommend Cunning Drift or Primed Sure Footed.

  • Stretch scales her fourth abilitiy's non-channelled range and is highly recommended with this new augment.

  • For less forma cost, you can substitute non-umbral or non-primed mods, they will work fine.
