Nourish over Fusion Strike — Viral + energy for you and Ortholysts. Gyre + Mortar remains the clear.

Caliban’s adaptive shields and Sentient kit lean on summons, Tau status, and armor strip. Ortholysts are the damage summon; Razor Mortar turns Razor Gyre into a grouping + Ortholyst buff engine.

• 1 Razor Gyre — Spin for shields, energy, grouping. Razor Mortar buffs Ortholysts while you vacuum packs.
• 2 Sentient Wrath — Lift + damage vulnerability and Tau pressure.
• 3 Lethal Progeny — Cycle summons — Ortholysts for DPS, others for aggro / utility.
• 4 Fusion Strike — Strip and Tau fallout. Common Nourish subsume slot.
• Helminth: Nourish over Fusion Strike. Razor Mortar on Gyre.

• Strength
• Casting Speed
• Duration

Nourish is the default. Roar is the alternate summon amp.

• Steel Path Survival / Defense / Disruption

  Excellent

  Ortholysts + Razor Mortar delete dense SP packs once Wrath and Gyre are looping.

• Mobile Defense / Excavation

  Excellent

  Gyre on the point groups for mortars; summons hold aggro.

• Exterminate / Capture Speed Runs

  Strong

  Fast once Ortholysts are up; first rooms spend time summoning.

• Spy / Rescue / Nightmare

  Weak

  Loud Sentient kit — wrong for quiet vaults.

• Open World / Bounties

  Strong

  Camp stages love Gyre grouping + Ortholyst beams.

• Long-Range Gunplay / Eidolon-Style Content

  Weak

  Summon beams want packs, not Amp hunts.
