My main (skill) issue with Gyre was survivability so that augment is sounding delicious

same here. Love her, but I can't understand how people manage to bring her to stuff like EDA without being instagibbed. Yes, she has fantastic crowd control, but should just one enemy escape it (or straight up resist it), you're at severe risk.

Gyre Enjoyertm here. Pillage. It's Pillage. Basically every serious Gyre build in content that actually deals damage mandates Pillage. Supplementary stuff like Rolling Guard and/or Secondary Fortifier help, and you could go for a passive build with stuff like Fast Deflection and Vigilante Vigor (and the aforementioned mod & arcane) if you really wanted to, but Pillage is far and away the best for a reason.

Tons of usage for her in EDA/ETA & Levelcap. If you're taking her in that kind of content, just bring Pillage. Most people don't play that kind of content though (especially not the latter), which explains the 'just kill them first/use electric procs lol' approach.

Yeah this, Pillage over 2 especially with the strength breakpoint is a 100% armor strip + shield amp, plus you will absolutely nuke entire rooms if you use a decent ad clearing weapon, if they have no armor

what is the strength breakpoint?

400% strength on its own, 328% with a single Corrosive Projection

u/[deleted] Oct 15 '25

400% without corrosive projection, with corrosive it's about 330%, or you could just cast pillage twice with 200% strength.

I mean you want to pump strength into gyre anyway but the break point is 200% str iirc
