Mission Usefulness

  • Steel Path Survival / Defense / Disruption

    Excellent

    Dark Verse Slash into Tragedy detonates dense SP packs.

  • Mobile Defense / Excavation

    Excellent

    Prime the point with Dark Verse, Tragedy the clump.

  • Exterminate / Capture Speed Runs

    Excellent

    Slash nuke clears tiles once Pageflight or primers are online.

  • Spy / Rescue / Nightmare

    Weak

    Combat caster — not stealth.

  • Open World / Bounties

    Strong

    Camp clumps Tragedy well; open travel needs Operator.

  • Long-Range Gunplay / Eidolon-Style Content

    Weak

    Tragedy wants packed mid-range enemies, not Eidolon sightlines.
