Shroud Of Dynar

(TAP) Dynar shrouds Voruna with invisibility and accelerates her speed. Invisibility ends when Voruna attacks. For a short time after invisibility ends, melee attacks have increased Critical Damage, Status Chance, Critical Chance and inflict Slash Status Effects. Melee kill an enemy during this time to extend the melee buff once per cast. (HOLD) Dynar guards Voruna, increasing her Parkour Velocity.

Cast Changes

  1. Modifies Shroud Of Dynar with: Shroud of Dynar Augment: Increase an enemy’s Damage Vulnerability by 50%.
  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 Voruna.
  2. Skip it if the base Shroud Of Dynar already does what you need and you’d rather keep the slot for survivability or strength.

Tips & Tricks

  • Read the battlefield first — cast Shroud Of Dynar when it actually solves the room, not on cooldown habit.
  • Pair Shroud Of Dynar with movement and energy economy so you’re not stranded after a big spend.
  • On Steel Path, confirm whether Shroud Of Dynar still carries without strip, Viral, or a squad buff.
  • If you never press 1, it’s the first Helminth candidate on Voruna.
