NB: I have more polarities on my [Loki] than shown here and I could only fit [Flow], it works perfectly fine for me but you can fit [Primed Flow] if you spend an extra forma.
Archon Shards

Mod Choices
- Growing Power, Precision Intensify and Molt Augmented give ability strength to Xata's Whisper, no other ability benefits from them.
- Primed Sure Footed to resist knockdowns/stagger from enemies or your weapons (mainly your Glaive Prime or Cerata if you detonate it).
- Primed Continuity and Narrow Minded to extend your Invisibility, Xata's Whisper and Safeguard Switch duration.
- Rolling Guard, Hushed Invisibility and Safeguard Switch to save you from stray damage.
- Flow for more energy, Primed Flow if you want to fully flesh it out (not necessary in my experience, save the forma)
- [Overextended] to let you move fast, remove Thraxes from afar and utilise most of Decoy's fixed 100m placement range for mobility. This is a good flex flot to run Vigorous Swap for more damage or Stretch to keep more strength on Xata's Whisper.
Tips
- Perform Safeguard Switch on the Decoy to stop it dying instantly. This can be useful to:
- Lure enemies into purged Exolizers to keep the Cascade meter down, including Eximus units who are immune to most other CC
- Create breathing room before purging an Exolizer, as your Operator is quite vulnerable while doing this
- Invisibility is your bread and butter for staying alive, and Hushed Invisiblility will keep your weapons silent to avoid any sudden snap shots from enemies who may otherwise hear you.
- Switch Teleport is a great clutching utility. Aside from the synergy already mentioned with Decoy, you can:
- Grant yourself invulnerability that can be refreshed endlessly by switching with enemies. I recommend using Rolling Guard as your first resort as there is a delay in activating invulnerability using Switch Teleport.
- Teleport Thrax away from Exolizers they're about to capture.
- Move around quickly by placing and teleporting to your Decoy, this can done to teleport into possessed Exolizer zones instantly.
- [Xata]'s Whisper is used here as I prefer to use [Laetum] as my Thrax killing weapon. Any other weapon buffing Helminth will do the trick here.
