Playstyle

Sinister grace interwoven with lethal versatility; the evolution of a perfect predator. Built around Mercy's Kiss, Webbed Embrace, Widow's Brood.

Passive

Wall Latching grants Predator's Lurk, rendering Oraxia invisible for several seconds.

When to Pick

  • You want a stealth / utility toolkit and Oraxia’s fantasy matches the mission.
  • Your squad is missing what Oraxia brings — especially Mercy's Kiss.
  • You already own the mods / archon shards that make Oraxia’s scaling comfortable on Steel Path.

Kit Overview

  • Mercy's Kiss (Ability 1): Leap onto an enemy and pierce them with Oraxia’s spider legs, dealing Toxin Damage.
  • Webbed Embrace (Ability 2): Oraxia throws a creeping web to ensnare her prey.
  • Widow's Brood (Ability 3): Oraxia launches a barrage of stinging darts in front of her that applies Toxin Status Effect.
  • Silken Stride (Ability 4): Unfurl Oraxia's spider legs and go on the prowl.

Helminth / Subsume

  • Mercy's Kiss is often the Helminth sacrifice if your build never needs Ability 1 and you’d rather import a strip, buff, or survival tool.
  • Keep Webbed Embrace and later abilities when they define Oraxia’s identity.
  • Never subsume the ability that enables the rest of the kit’s energy or survival loop.

Mod Scaling

Strength

Raises damage and effect potency across Oraxia’s Strength-scaling abilities.

Duration

Extends channeled / timed effects — often comfort on Oraxia if the kit leans on buffs or zones.

Range

Helps radius / targeting tools. Dump it if Oraxia is mostly self-buff or exalted weapons.

Efficiency

Keeps ability uptime comfortable, especially on longer Steel Path missions.

Priority

Match the priority to your main ability — Strength or Duration first for most kits, then Efficiency, then Range.

Mission Usefulness

Mission / ContextRatingWhy
Steel Path Survival / Defense / DisruptionExcellentOraxia is a S-tier Steel Path pick because Mercy's Kiss still works when every spawn is overlevelled. Leap onto an enemy and pierce them with Oraxia’s spider legs, dealing Toxin Damage.
Mobile Defense / ExcavationStrongOraxia can hold Mobile Defense / Excavation without sweating every spawn, mainly via Mercy's Kiss. Leap onto an enemy and pierce them with Oraxia’s spider legs, dealing Toxin Damage.
Exterminate / Capture Speed RunsExcellentSpeed runs favor Oraxia because Mercy's Kiss skips empty rooms and ends the mission early. Leap onto an enemy and pierce them with Oraxia’s spider legs, dealing Toxin Damage.
Spy / Rescue / NightmareExcellentNightmare and Spy rooms are where Oraxia flexes Mercy's Kiss harder than any pack-nuke frame. Leap onto an enemy and pierce them with Oraxia’s spider legs, dealing Toxin Damage.
Open World / BountiesStrongStrong on packed bounty camps; Oraxia still leans on Operator / Archwing for the empty travel stretches while Mercy's Kiss handles fights. Leap onto an enemy and pierce them with Oraxia’s spider legs, dealing Toxin Damage. Sinister grace interwoven with lethal versatility; the evolution of a perfect predator.
Long-Range Gunplay / Eidolon-Style ContentWeakOraxia wants pack clear or finishers, not pure long-range; Mercy's Kiss won’t save an Eidolon-style loadout. Leap onto an enemy and pierce them with Oraxia’s spider legs, dealing Toxin Damage.
