Info

  • Invisibility is Loki’s ability 2.
  • Loki camouflages himself, becoming invisible to enemies.
  • Use it with the rest of the kit — especially Decoy, Switch Teleport — instead of casting it in isolation.
  • Ability Strength, Duration, Range, and Efficiency each matter differently; check Mod Scaling below before dumping all four.

Cast Changes

  1. Modifies Invisibility with: Invisibility Augment: Weapon noise is reduced by 100% while invisible.
  2. Rank up the augment to unlock the full effect values.
  3. Costs a mod slot (and capacity) — only equip it when the change matters for your loop.

Worth the Slot?

  1. Worth it when the augment’s change is central to how you play Loki.
  2. Skip it if the base Invisibility already does what you need and you’d rather keep the slot for survivability or strength.

Tips & Tricks

  • Read the battlefield first — cast Invisibility when it actually solves the room, not on cooldown habit.
  • Pair Invisibility with movement and energy economy so you’re not stranded after a big spend.
  • On Steel Path, confirm whether Invisibility still carries without strip, Viral, or a squad buff.
  • If you never press 2, it’s the first Helminth candidate on Loki.

Mod Scaling

Strength

Strength matters if Invisibility scales effect power; otherwise dump it for other stats.

Duration

Duration is low priority on Invisibility unless an augment or lingering effect needs it.

Range

Range is usually dumpable on Invisibility unless you feel the hitbox is too tight.

Efficiency

Invisibility costs energy each cast — Efficiency (or strong regen) keeps the loop comfortable on long missions.

Priority

Stack the stats that actually move this ability’s needle, then Efficiency for uptime.

Mission Use Cases

MissionHow to Use It
Steel Path Survival / Defense / DisruptionTest whether Invisibility still clears or enables clear when enemies are dense and overlevelled.
Mobile Defense / ExcavationUse Invisibility to control or delete the swarm on the objective, then reposition.
Exterminate / Capture Speed RunsCast Invisibility only when it saves time — skip it on empty tiles.
Spy / Rescue / Quiet RoutesIf Invisibility is loud or forces combat, save it for after the vault; if it’s stealth-friendly, use it to stay safe.

Comparisons

  • VS

    Vs similar tools on other frames — Invisibility is tuned for Loki’s loop — don’t judge it as a standalone subsume without the rest of the kit.
