Cast Changes

  • Changes how Effigy plays: Effigy Augment: Cast and hold to make Effigy move to your aim point.
  • Higher ranks usually improve the key magnitude or duration of the augment.

Worth the Slot?

  • Equip Guided Effigy when that change is part of your standard Chroma loop.
  • Skip it for generalist builds if capacity is tighter on survivability or parkour mods.

Mission Usefulness

Mission / ContextRatingWhy
Steel Path Survival / Defense / DisruptionStrongDense missions are where most Chroma augments prove whether they belong in the build.
Mobile Defense / ExcavationSituationalWorth it if the augment helps hold or clear the objective faster.
Casual Star-Chart FarmsSituationalOften skippable when base abilities already overkill the content.

Tips & Tricks

  • Read the max-rank text — Guided Effigy often only feels complete at rank 3.
  • Try one mission with and without it on Chroma before locking the slot.
  • If you Helminth over Effigy, this augment usually becomes irrelevant on that loadout.

Notes

  • Compatible with Chroma (Chroma).
  • Polarity: zenurik; rarity: Rare.
