Viral Annihilation | Nourish Nuke Slow Nova

This is a general use Steel Path Slow [Nova] build for slowing and debuffing enemies with molecular primar, nuking enemies with both Neutral Star and antimatter drop and high mobility with Wormhole. Nourish is essential to fuel energy costs associated with 2 and 4 even at low efficiency, while also applying viral damage buff to both [Neutron Star] AND antimatter drop, applying viral status procs in an AOE and creating brief stuns that is prolonged by Molecular Prime's slow.

Mods
[Combat Discipline]: Used to self proc viral retaliation of Nourish creating consistent triggers of AOE viral proc and stun. This is flexible for [Brief Respite].

[Primed Sure Footed]: Makes you immune to knockdowns, flexible for [Handspring], [Speed Drift], [Cunning Drift]

[Primed Continuity]: Provides duration to increase the travel distance of molecular prime wave and uptime of Nourish

[Overextended] + [Augur Reach]: Provides range to increase the radius of [Antimatter Absorb] and AOE range of Nourish retaliation. Note range does NOT affect the explosion radius of antimatter drop and does not significantly affect the final spread of molecular prime. [Augur Reach] is used over [Stretch] to provide a bit of shield [Regen] for shield gating, best used with two other augur mods on a pistol.

[Blind Rage] + Molt Augmented: Counteracts [Overextended] to bring strength back to positive, which affects the damage of antimatter drop and boost on Nourish. Only need 145% str to hit max slow on molecular prime.

[Equilibrium]: Optional to significant boost energy return, while also healing health lost from [Combat Discipline].
[Antimatter Absorb]: Optional augment that makes a big bubble that blocks enemy bullets and absorbs it.

Nourish gives:
1. Bonus Viral damage to weapons
2. Bonus Viral damage to Antimatter Drop
3. On damage, creates AOE Viral procs with 2s cooldown (14m radius at 175 range)
4. On damage, also create short stuns that are lengthened by the slow of Molecular Prime.
