Mission Usefulness

Mission / ContextRatingWhy
Steel Path Survival / Defense / DisruptionStrongDense missions are where most Loki augments prove whether they belong in the build.

Casual Star-Chart FarmsSituationalOften skippable when base abilities already overkill the content.

Tips & Tricks

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

Notes

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