Helminth / Subsume

Chyrinka Pillar is often the Helminth sacrifice if your build never needs Ability 1 and you’d rather import a strip, buff, or survival tool.
Keep Containment Wall and later abilities when they define Qorvex’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 Qorvex’s Strength-scaling abilities.
Duration: Extends channeled / timed effects — often comfort on Qorvex if the kit leans on buffs or zones.
Range: Helps radius / targeting tools. Dump it if Qorvex 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.
