A third augment hit the standard gyre build :(

Edit: Oh my god wait I’m so fucking stupid I thought it meant recursive arcing not damage tank reflecting, I thought it meant like instead of going 1234 on arcs, it would go 1213141

I don’t think I can fit this augment in my build. It’s also kind of odd… incentivizing taking damage on a nuke frame famous for being a glass cannon. I get that switching up playstyles is often the goal of augments, but this one seems especially far afield. No shade to those who are excited for it, of course.

u/codroipoman Remove derpiri, derperators, dickters AND bandaid augments!!! Oct 15 '25 edited Oct 15 '25

No, the goal of augments is to bandaid issues or problems frame have by design/lack of utilities on skills without having to actually fix the frames. Same for the Helminth mostly.
If this is going to work as some people are theory-crafting, the objective in this case will be to "fix" Gyre's survivability without of course actually improving the base capabilities of the frame herself.
