- RNG

Who Should You Pull?
- Thurible into Covenant is the cast story you want to master — not a random subsume mashup.
- You'd rather specialize hard into Thurible than stay generic in the Support lane.
- Skipping Inaros frees a craft slot — you'd rather finish Harrow properly.
- Harrow rates higher on speed clears (Excellent vs Situational) — that rota is where you actually play.
- Inventory space / foundry queue: Harrow jumps the line over another Inaros craft.
- Scarab Shell into Scarab Swarm is the cast story you want to master — not a random subsume mashup.
- Your favorite clear starts on Desiccation and ends on Scarab Swarm — Inaros is built for that arc.
- Harrow's Thurible loop asks for a different muscle memory than you want to practice.
- Naramon on the aura slot matches the school you're already building weapons around.
- Potato + Forma budget this month has Inaros's name on it.
