Extras
Kitgun:
Pax Bolt -> +30% ability strength
Specter:
Nidus Summon the specter at the beginning and it will continue to link you, giving you a 1.2875x multiplier to your strength. Have it hold position where you want the Motes as to ensure Parasitic Link stays active when needed. This is technically semi-passive. However, it's possible the link breaks from distance or time. But it is very forgiving and easy to tell if it's active. If it does break, try having it Follow, then Hold Position again. It will automatically link you again if it's internal timer to reconnect is ready. This is the most impactful aspect of raising your Ability Strength, applying a massive 150~200 strength bonus. You can obtain specter blueprints from rescue missions. Since the specter gets your buffs, as well as a Vapor specter having the same ability strength as a Cosmic specter, you can just farm Vapor specters for the x10 blueprint.
