Harrow Gameplay Guide

[Harrow] is a hybrid support who grants various offensive, defensive, and utility buffs to himself and his allies. He excels at covering weaknesses seen in weapons with low critical chance, fire rate, or reload speed while also helping allied Warframes who struggle with their energy economy or survivability. These tools are balanced by gimmicks that hinder their effectiveness like needing to headshot enemies or having to sacrifice his shields.

📝 Build Overview 📝

[Harrow] already has a great kit and this build simply looks to balance the effectiveness of each ability. By using fairly equalized stats we can also choose from a wide selection of Helminth abilities to specialize this build for different playstyles.

🔢 Helminth Options 🔢

Condemn is the weakest ability on most builds because it's weaker than some of the Helminth options. All of his abilities have a place but their gimmicks might not suit your playstyle so replace whichever one you like the least.

Any ability can fit into this build and it's intentionally using stat spreads to accommodate most of them. Armor Stripping, Crowd Control, and Damage Buffs are your primary concerns when covers Harrow's weaknesses.

📊 Ability Stats 📊

Strength has the most investment to benefit your buffs with Range and Duration being given slight boosts for the same reason. Efficiency isn't touched because Thurible should cover any of your energy needs.

Helminth Invigorations, Arbitration Buffs, Ally Abilities, Arcanes, and other external stat boosts can save you multiple mod slots but may rely on specific team compositions, loadouts, or sheer luck. Plan around these situations and modify your loadout to hit desired ability stat breakpoints.

⏲️ Duration ⏲️

Duration is kept around the baseline so that all abilities need minimal upkeep. Realize that too much investment can cause Covenant's invincibility to be untenable and inconsistent at actually protecting your allies due to the immense time on the critical chance buff.

⛽ Efficiency ⛽

Efficiency isn't touched and [Primed Flow] gives you a significant buffer to use your abilities. Thurible should synergize with this setup but it isn't suggested to run negative Efficiency until you get a feel for how much energy you get back from a few kills.

📏 Range 📏

Range allows your abilities to cover a larger area but [Harrow] has a few abilities that don't scale with it and instead use your Affinity Range. Tweak this if you're relying more on Penance, Thurible, or subsumed abilities that don't use Range.

💪 Strength 💪

Strength is boosted to benefit the buffs but too much investment hurts the other stats. Different subsumed abilities may need different levels of investment.

↔️ Alternate Playstyles ↔️

Most builds utilize tools that can be swapped out to serve the same purpose albeit in a different manner. The following suggestions are an outline and aren't exhaustive.

🔧 Mods 🔧

  • Aura mods should be selected based on your playstyle and loadout.
  • [Primed Sure Footed] is a powerful survival tool that completely negates many forms of hostile crowd control. It also allows weapons with a large area of effect to be fired with impunity. It's an expensive login reward so replace it if you have other forms of status effect immunity.
  • Natural Talent is useful for spamming all of your abilities but it can be cut if you're using a more conservative playstyle.
  • [Redirection] synergizes with Penance while [Adaptation] synergizes with Covenant. Both start to become less useful against extremely high level enemies and can be replaced for mods like Rolling Guard or anything that fits into the polarity plan.
  • [Harrow]'s augments primarily grant quality of life benefits so save these flex slots for augments related to subsumed abilities.

⚙️ Arcanes ⚙️

Arcane Energize pairs well with [Primed Flow] and allows you to be extremely greedy with your ability casts. It can be replaced if you're confident with your energy economy or if you're playing with an ally Warframe that provides energy.

Arcane Aegis synergizes shield gating and invincibility to grant you pseudo-invincibility against everything other than Toxin attacks. This is far less useful in lower level missions and can be replaced if you don't trust the high proc RNG.

📋 Final Notes 📋

[Harrow]'s passive grants 200% maximum Overshields and an innate [Preparation] mod. This is usually inconsequential in most content due to the shield gating meta and the copious amounts of energy regeneration from various sources but it can save a mod or two on some loadouts.

Penance and Covenant have negative synergy with Thurible due to the Range inconsistencies between mods and Affinity. This forces you to make sacrifices depending with mod opportunity cost so it might just be easier to tell allies to stay closer to you rather than ruin your build.

Many abilities have a headshot gimmick that increases their effectiveness. Not all enemies can receive headshots and allies can hinder your setups by killing enemies so no builds will factor in these headshots into calculations. They're just a nice bonus.
