[Saryn] General Use
Gameplay
This build is the standard go to for nearly any content. Well rounded stats for no one weakness but also no great strength. Using neutral duration to maintain spore, good strength and range to ramp up well and keep miasma effective. Regenerative Molt for regen and Hunter Adrenaline to provide the energy when you need it to Molt.
Aura - 100% preference, some options are Energy Siphon, Corrosive Projection (diminishing returns because of Spore but still helpful), or any weapon based aura.
Arcanes - 100% preference, some options are Energize, Guardian, or any damage increasing arcane. Grace shouldn't be used because Molt Augment.
Umbral - Absolutely worth for OTHER configs or just to upgrade Vitality on this build.
Tip - skip the Naramon Forma unless you're going to also use Config B.
