Sharen Reactor And Module Optimization Guide
This guide is a complete, battle‑ready blueprint for running Ultimate Sharen through the Forbidden Sanctuary. It explains the why behind every choice and the how for execution: weapon selection, transcendent modules, reactor and arche tuning, external components, inversion priorities, encounter scripts, farming routes, and troubleshooting. The build leans into crit rate and storm bullet synergy to produce repeated, reliable burst windows while using stealth and mobility to survive the Sanctuary’s punishing telegraphs.
Sharen’s identity in this build is simple: create guaranteed high‑damage windows, then convert those windows into lethal single‑target and add‑clearing bursts. Everything you equip and tune should support that loop—more crits, faster re‑entry to stealth, and tools to survive the moments you can’t avoid. The result is a playstyle that feels surgical: precise, fast, and devastating when executed correctly.
Core strengths and weaknesses
Sharen’s strengths are concentrated and predictable. She excels at:
Burst single‑target damage when crit rate and skill damage are stacked.
Stealth windows that let you reposition, avoid mechanics, and guarantee critical hits.
Add control through quick, high‑value bursts that collapse small groups before they overwhelm you.
Her weaknesses are equally clear:
Reliance on timing; poor timing means lost windows and long recovery.
Vulnerability to sustained, unavoidable damage if survivability is neglected.
A need for specific module rolls and reactor tuning to reach peak performance.
This guide balances those tradeoffs: it gives you the offensive power to one‑shot priority targets while providing the defensive and mobility tools to survive the Sanctuary’s worst moments.
Weapon choice and why it matters
Weapon selection is the single most impactful decision for this build. Sharen converts storm bullet stacks and skill windows into massive damage, so the weapon must reward precision and critical hits. Look for weapons with high single‑shot multipliers, strong crit scaling, and fast follow‑up shots that let you chain damage inside a stealth window.
Recommended weapon archetypes
Precision rifle: Best for single‑target burst. High base damage and crit scaling make it ideal for boss phases where you can guarantee headshots or weak‑spot hits.
Hybrid marksman: Offers a balance between sustained fire and burst; useful if you need more add control without sacrificing single‑target potential.
High‑impact sidearm (situational): Use as a backup for close quarters or when you need instant follow‑up after a skill.
What to prioritize on the weapon
Crit scaling and crit damage over raw elemental procs. The build’s damage curve depends on crits landing consistently.
Single‑shot multipliers that reward accuracy. A weapon that multiplies headshot damage or weak‑spot hits will amplify Sharen’s burst.
Low wind‑up or quick recovery so you can fire follow‑ups inside the cloak window without losing time.
Practical weapon tips
If you have a choice between slightly higher base damage and much higher crit scaling, choose crit scaling. The build multiplies crits repeatedly.
Swap to a hybrid marksman if you need to clear waves faster; keep the precision rifle for boss rooms.
Practice recoil and aim in a safe area to ensure you can land the follow‑up shots during the short stealth windows.
Transcendent modules and ideal rolls
Modules are the backbone of any high‑tier build. For Sharen, transcendent modules that boost crit rate, skill damage, and cooldown reduction are the most valuable. The right rolls turn a good weapon into a lethal one and let you chain stealth windows more often.
Priority module stats
Crit rate: Top priority. Without consistent crits, the build’s burst identity collapses.
Skill damage: Amplifies the initial application of storm bullet and the follow‑up burst.
Cooldown reduction: Shortens the time between stealth windows so you can maintain pressure.
Attack: Secondary but useful for raw damage scaling.
Elemental damage: Only if it synergizes with your weapon or a specific module that converts elemental stacks into crit multipliers.
Slot‑by‑slot guidance
Primary offensive module: Aim for crit rate + skill damage; if you can get crit rate + cooldown reduction, that’s ideal.
Secondary offensive module: Look for attack + crit damage or skill damage; this slot supports raw output.
Utility module: Prioritize cooldown reduction and movement speed or a defensive stat if you struggle with survivability.
Support module: Use this for niche bonuses like increased weak‑spot damage or reduced skill cost.
Roll targets and thresholds
Aim for crit rate values that push you above soft caps where crits become reliably frequent. The exact numbers depend on your reactor and external components, but the principle is to reach a crit rate where most skill windows result in multiple crits.
For cooldown reduction, target values that let you re‑enter stealth at least once during a boss phase. If a boss has a 30–40 second phase, you want cooldowns short enough to get two windows in that time.
How to prioritize upgrades
Early game: focus on crit rate and skill damage modules to feel immediate power spikes.
Mid game: balance cooldown reduction so you can chain windows.
End game: fine‑tune crit thresholds and add situational modules for survivability or mobility.
Reactor tuning and arche choices
Reactor tuning is where you convert raw module power into a coherent stat profile. For this build, the reactor should favor attack and crit substats while keeping a survivability buffer.
Stat priorities
Crit rate and crit damage: These are the core offensive stats. Reactor rolls that add crit chance or crit damage are extremely valuable.
Attack: Increases base damage and scales with crit multipliers.
HP or damage reduction: Keep a modest investment here to survive unavoidable mechanics.
Cooldown reduction: Useful if you can’t get enough from modules.
Balancing offense and defense
Don’t chase glass‑cannon numbers unless you are extremely confident in your execution. The Sanctuary has unavoidable damage windows; a small investment in HP or damage reduction prevents wipes.
If you play solo, bias slightly more toward survivability. In groups, you can push more offensive reactor stats because teammates can cover defensive gaps.
Arche tuning and inversion reinforcement
Arche tuning should lean into cooldown reduction and damage amplification. The goal is to shorten the time between stealth windows and increase the potency of each window.
Inversion reinforcement should focus on skill cooldowns and skill damage. Reducing cooldowns gives you more opportunities to apply storm bullet and re‑enter stealth, which is the core loop.
Practical reactor targets
Aim for a reactor spread that gives you a comfortable crit rate baseline before modules—this reduces the pressure on module RNG.
Keep at least one defensive node or substat that triggers on cloak exit or skill use to mitigate burst damage.
External components and situational swaps
External components are the safety net that lets you play aggressively. For Forbidden Sanctuary, choose components that grant short invulnerability, damage reduction on cloak exit, or mobility boosts.
Core component choices
Cloak‑exit shield: Grants a brief damage reduction or invulnerability when you exit stealth. This is invaluable for surviving boss telegraphs immediately after you attack.
Mobility booster: Increases movement speed or dash distance so you can reposition quickly between windows.
Burst amplifier: Temporarily increases crit damage or skill damage after a successful stealth attack.
Emergency heal or regen: Useful for solo players who need sustain between windows.
Situational swaps
If the Sanctuary run has heavy environmental hazards, swap mobility for damage reduction.
For speedclear runs where you rely on dodging rather than tanking, prioritize mobility and burst amplifier.
In group runs where teammates provide heals or shields, you can drop defensive components for pure damage amplifiers.
How to use components in combat
Time cloak‑exit shield to overlap with boss telegraphs; exit stealth just before a big attack to negate it and immediately punish.
Use mobility boosters to reposition to weak spots or to kite adds into your burst windows.
Activate burst amplifiers right before you open with your skill to maximize the first hit’s damage.
Playstyle and encounter flow
Sharen’s playstyle is a rhythm: apply stacks, enter stealth, burst, reposition, repeat. Mastering that rhythm is the difference between a smooth run and a frustrating wipe.
Opening sequence
Start by applying storm bullet stacks with your primary skill. This initial application is the seed for the burst.
Move into stealth immediately after applying stacks. The cloak window is your guaranteed crit opportunity.
Fire your precision shots and skills inside the cloak window, focusing on weak spots and headshots.
Sustained combat
After the first window, reposition to avoid telegraphs and to set up the next application of storm bullet.
Use basic attacks to maintain pressure while your cooldowns refresh.
If the boss telegraphs a heavy attack, use cloak or your cloak‑exit shield to negate it and then counterattack.
Add control
Prioritize high‑value adds that can interrupt your rhythm. One well‑timed burst can collapse a pack and restore control.
Use mobility to separate dangerous adds from the boss so you can maintain single‑target focus.
Boss phases and windows
Identify the boss’s predictable windows and time your cooldowns to match them. The ideal scenario is to have a stealth window ready for each high‑damage phase.
If a boss has a long, invulnerable phase, use that time to reposition, refresh modules, and prepare for the next active phase.
When the boss exposes a weak spot, commit to a full burst sequence: skill application, stealth, precision shots, and follow‑ups.
Solo versus group differences
Solo: Be conservative with windows. Use defensive components and keep a heal or regen ready. You’ll need to survive more than in a group.
Group: Coordinate windows with teammates. Your burst can be timed to coincide with team buffs or crowd control for maximum efficiency.
Forbidden Sanctuary route and encounter scripting
The Forbidden Sanctuary is a dungeon of predictable patterns and punishing telegraphs. This section gives a practical route and scripts for each major encounter so you can move through the dungeon with confidence.
General route principles
Move deliberately. The Sanctuary punishes rushed pulls.
Use stealth to bypass unnecessary fights and to set up ideal engagements.
Prioritize weak‑spot targets and high‑threat adds first.
Entrance and early rooms
Clear the first room by isolating small groups. Use a single stealth window to collapse a pack, then reposition to the next cluster.
Avoid pulling multiple elite packs at once. Sharen’s strength is controlled bursts, not sustained multi‑pack tanking.
Mid‑dungeon choke points
Use choke points to funnel adds into your burst. A well‑placed stealth entry followed by a precision volley will clear most mid‑dungeon encounters.
Keep an eye on patrols; use stealth to slip past or to set up a perfect ambush.
Boss room scripting
Observe the boss’s opening pattern. Most bosses telegraph a heavy attack after a set number of casts—time your cloak‑exit shield to overlap with that attack.
Open with your storm bullet application, then enter stealth and unload precision shots on the weak spot.
If the boss has a phase where it becomes invulnerable, use that time to reposition and refresh cooldowns.
For multi‑stage bosses, conserve one stealth window for the final stage where damage windows are shorter and more valuable.
Final room and extraction
The final room often contains a mix of adds and a high‑value boss. Use mobility to separate the boss from the adds and then commit to a full burst sequence.
After the boss falls, use stealth to slip to the extraction point if there are remaining patrols.
Practical scripting example (boss phase)
Apply storm bullet → Enter stealth → Land precision shots on weak spot → Exit stealth with cloak‑exit shield active to negate telegraph → Reposition and reapply stacks → Repeat.
Farming routes and progression plan
Getting the right modules, reactor rolls, and components requires targeted farming. Efficient progression focuses on the materials that unlock your core power spikes.
Early progression goals
Secure a weapon with strong crit scaling and practice the burst rhythm.
Acquire at least two transcendent modules with crit rate and skill damage.
Tune your reactor to reach a comfortable crit baseline.
Mid progression goals
Complete module roll upgrades to hit crit thresholds.
Add a cloak‑exit shield and a mobility booster to your external components.
Practice the Forbidden Sanctuary route until you can clear rooms without losing windows.
Endgame goals
Optimize all module rolls for maximum crit rate and cooldown reduction.
Fine‑tune reactor substats to push crit rate and crit damage to peak values.
Master boss scripts and timing so you can speedclear or solo the dungeon reliably.
Efficient farming tips
Focus on missions and routes that drop the specific module shards you need rather than general grinding.
Trade or craft only when you have the core offensive pieces in place; survivability can be tuned later.
Run the Sanctuary with a consistent route to minimize downtime and maximize material yield.
Troubleshooting common problems
If your runs feel inconsistent, these are the most common causes and how to fix them.
Inconsistent crits
Problem: Your crit rate is too low or uneven across modules and reactor.
Fix: Rebalance reactor to add crit baseline, then prioritize crit rate rolls on modules. Consider a temporary crit‑boosting external component.
Short cloak windows
Problem: Cooldowns are too long or you’re misusing stealth timing.
Fix: Add cooldown reduction on modules and inversion reinforcement. Practice entering stealth immediately after applying stacks.
Frequent wipes to telegraphs
Problem: Lack of defensive components or poor timing on cloak‑exit shield.
Fix: Equip a cloak‑exit shield and practice exiting stealth to overlap with boss telegraphs. Add a small HP or damage reduction node in the reactor.
Slow clear speed
Problem: Overemphasis on survivability at the cost of damage.
Fix: Swap a utility module for a damage amplifier and practice more aggressive burst windows while maintaining a safe buffer.
Advanced tips and micro‑techniques
These refinements separate good Sharen players from great ones.
Weak‑spot discipline
Always prioritize weak spots. A single weak‑spot crit inside a stealth window can change the entire fight.
Window stacking
If you can safely stack two stealth windows in quick succession, do it. The compounded damage often one‑shots priority targets.
Adaptive component swapping
Keep two sets of external components: one for solo survivability and one for speedclear damage. Swap between runs based on your goal.
Practice drills
Spend time in a safe area practicing the full sequence: apply stacks, enter stealth, land precision shots, exit with cloak‑exit shield. Muscle memory is crucial.
FAQ
How important is crit rate for this build? Crit rate is the single most important stat. The build’s damage curve depends on consistent crits during stealth windows. Without a reliable crit baseline, your burst windows will underperform.
Can Sharen solo the Forbidden Sanctuary? Yes. With the right transcendent modules, reactor tuning, and defensive components, Sharen can solo the dungeon. Solo runs require slightly more survivability and conservative timing.
Which external component should I prioritize first? Start with a cloak‑exit shield that grants brief damage reduction or invulnerability on exit. It solves the most common wipe scenarios and lets you play aggressively.
What if I can’t get perfect module rolls? Aim for the most impactful stats first: crit rate and skill damage. Perfect rolls are ideal but not mandatory; good rolls combined with reactor tuning and components will still perform well.
Is this build viable in group play? Absolutely. In groups, you can push more offensive stats because teammates can cover defensive gaps. Coordinate your stealth windows with team buffs for maximum effect.
How do I practice the timing? Use a safe training area to run the full sequence repeatedly. Focus on entering stealth immediately after applying stacks and firing follow‑ups before the cloak window ends.
What are the best weapons for beginners? Start with a precision rifle that has forgiving recoil and good crit scaling. As you improve, switch to higher‑impact rifles or hybrid marksmen for more advanced play.
How do I handle unpredictable boss mechanics? If a boss has unpredictable mechanics, prioritize survivability: add a defensive external component and a small HP buffer in the reactor. Play more conservatively and wait for clear openings.
Closing notes and final checklist
This guide gives you a complete path from early progression to endgame optimization for Ultimate Sharen in the Forbidden Sanctuary. The core loop is simple: apply storm bullet stacks, enter stealth, land precision crits, exit with defensive overlap, and repeat. Everything else—weapon choice, module rolls, reactor tuning, and external components—exists to support that loop.
Final checklist to get started
Equip a precision rifle or hybrid with strong crit scaling.
Secure transcendent modules focused on crit rate and skill damage.
Tune your reactor for crit and attack while keeping a survivability buffer.
Add a cloak‑exit shield and a mobility booster as external components.
Practice the stealth → burst → reposition rhythm until it becomes second nature.
Follow this plan, refine your timing, and the Forbidden Sanctuary will become a predictable, repeatable run rather than a gamble.

Deep weapon analysis and recommended choices
A weapon is more than a damage number; it defines how you play Sharen. The build’s loop—apply storm bullet, enter stealth, land precision crits—relies on a weapon that rewards accuracy and scales with crit rate. Below are detailed profiles and practical advice for each recommended archetype.
Precision Rifle Precision rifles are the default choice for this build. They deliver the highest single‑shot multipliers and the cleanest weak‑spot synergy. When you land a headshot or weak‑spot hit inside a stealth window, the damage multiplies dramatically. Prioritize a rifle with stable recoil and a high crit multiplier. Practice burst‑firing to ensure follow‑ups land before the cloak window ends.
Hybrid Marksman Hybrids trade a bit of single‑target peak for flexibility. They let you maintain pressure on adds while still delivering respectable boss damage. Choose a hybrid with decent crit scaling and a fast enough follow‑up to chain shots inside stealth. Use this when the dungeon route forces you to clear packs frequently.
High‑impact Sidearm A high‑impact sidearm is a situational tool. It’s excellent for close quarters where a precision rifle is unwieldy. Use it to finish off staggered targets or to quickly punish exposed weak spots when mobility is constrained. Keep it as a secondary weapon and swap quickly when the room tightens.
Rapid Carbine If your goal is speedclear, a rapid carbine helps collapse waves quickly. It sacrifices some single‑target multiplier but rewards sustained DPS. Use this when your team composition or route emphasizes clearing many small enemies rather than long boss phases.
Sniper Variant For players who can consistently land long‑range weak‑spot shots, a sniper variant offers the highest single‑hit potential. It’s high risk, high reward: one perfect shot can end a phase, but missed shots cost time. Use in rooms with clear sightlines and predictable boss positioning.
Practical tuning tips for weapons
Affinity for crit: If a weapon offers a crit‑scaling perk, take it. The build multiplies crits repeatedly.
Recovery time: Choose weapons with quick recovery so you can fire follow‑ups inside the cloak window.
Weak‑spot synergy: If a weapon has a weak‑spot bonus, pair it with a support module that increases weak‑spot damage.
Swap sets: Keep two weapon sets ready—one for boss rooms (precision rifle + crit modules) and one for clears (hybrid or carbine + attack modules).
Full module roll explanations and crafting priorities
Modules are where the build’s identity is forged. Below is a deeper look at each slot, why the chosen stats matter, and how to prioritize crafting and upgrades.
Primary offensive module This module is your damage anchor. Crit rate here ensures that when you enter stealth, your chance to land multiple crits is high. Pair it with skill damage to make the initial application of storm bullet hit harder. When crafting, aim to hit the crit threshold that synergizes with your reactor baseline—this reduces reliance on perfect RNG.
Secondary offensive module This slot supports raw output. Skill damage increases the potency of your opener and any skill‑based follow‑ups. Attack as a secondary stat scales all damage and is especially useful if your weapon has high base damage. Upgrade this module once your primary offensive module is stable.
Cooldown utility module Shorter cooldowns equal more windows. Cooldown reduction here is a multiplier on your playstyle: more stealth windows mean more opportunities to land guaranteed crits. If you struggle to chain windows, prioritize this module early.
Support / niche module This slot is for situational advantages. Weak‑spot damage is the most universally useful niche stat because it multiplies the value of precision shots. Movement speed helps repositioning and kiting. Choose based on the dungeon’s demands and your personal weaknesses.
Defensive utility module A small investment in damage reduction or HP prevents wipes. This module is especially important for solo players. It’s better to have one reliable defensive cushion than to chase marginal offensive gains that leave you vulnerable to a single telegraph.
Crafting roadmap
Early: craft primary offensive and cooldown utility modules. These give immediate, noticeable improvements.
Mid: upgrade secondary offensive and support modules to refine damage and mobility.
Late: perfect defensive module and chase high rolls on primary offensive for peak performance.
Reactor tuning: exact targets and tradeoffs
Reactor tuning converts module power into a coherent stat profile. Below are practical targets and tradeoffs to guide your reactor choices.
Baseline targets (general play)
Crit rate baseline: Aim for a reactor baseline that gives you 10–15% crit before modules. This reduces pressure on module RNG.
Attack: Moderate investment to scale base damage; target a balance that complements your weapon.
HP / Damage reduction: Keep a small buffer—enough to survive one heavy telegraph without external help.
Cooldown reduction: If modules don’t provide enough, add reactor nodes to reach desired window frequency.
Solo vs group reactor tuning
Solo: shift 5–10% of offensive reactor nodes into HP or damage reduction. Survivability matters more when you can’t rely on teammates.
Group: push reactor nodes toward crit and attack; teammates can cover defensive gaps.
Arche tuning and inversion reinforcement specifics
Arche tuning: prioritize cooldown reduction and damage amplification nodes. These shorten the time between stealth windows and increase each window’s potency.
Inversion reinforcement: focus on skill cooldowns and skill damage. The more often you can apply storm bullet, the more windows you create.
Practical reactor tradeoffs
If you find yourself dying to one‑shot mechanics, move a node from attack to HP.
If you’re consistently missing crits, move a node from elemental or utility to crit rate.
If your windows are too infrequent, shift a node into cooldown reduction.
External components: exact picks and situational swaps
External components are the safety net and the burst amplifier. Below are recommended components and when to swap them.
Core component picks
Cloak‑exit shield: Grants brief damage reduction or invulnerability on exit. Use this as your default; it prevents the most common wipe scenarios.
Mobility booster: Increases movement speed or dash distance. Use this to reposition to weak spots or to kite adds.
Burst amplifier: Temporarily increases crit damage or skill damage after a stealth attack. Use for speedclear or boss DPS windows.
Emergency regen: Provides a heal over time after a stealth attack. Use for solo players who need sustain.
Situational swaps and reasoning
Heavy environmental hazards: swap mobility for extra damage reduction.
Speedclear runs: swap defensive regen for burst amplifier to shave seconds off clears.
Group runs with healers: drop regen and take a pure damage amplifier.
How to sequence component activation
Activate cloak‑exit shield to overlap with a boss telegraph. Exit stealth just before the telegraph to negate it and immediately punish.
Use mobility booster to reposition to weak spots or to kite adds into your burst window.
Trigger burst amplifier right before you open with your skill to maximize the first hit.
Step‑by‑step Forbidden Sanctuary room‑by‑room route map
This room‑by‑room route map is written as a script you can follow on runs. It assumes a standard layout with entrance, mid rooms, choke points, boss rooms, and final extraction. Adapt the route to the actual map layout you encounter.
Entrance corridor Move slowly through the entrance corridor. Use stealth to bypass the first patrol if it’s not required for progression. If you must clear, isolate a single pack and use one stealth window to collapse it. Avoid pulling the second patrol until you’ve reset cooldowns.
First chamber (small packs) This room often contains two or three small packs. Use a hybrid marksman or rapid carbine here. Apply storm bullet to a priority target, enter stealth, and burst the pack. If a patrol is near the door, wait for it to pass and then slip behind for a clean pull.
Narrow passage and choke point This area is ideal for funneling adds. Position yourself so enemies must pass through a narrow doorway. Apply storm bullet to the lead enemy, enter stealth, and fire precision shots as they bunch. Use mobility to step back and avoid flanking adds.
Mid‑dungeon hub (elite patrols) The hub often has an elite patrol and a mini‑boss. Use your cloak‑exit shield to negate the elite’s opening telegraph. Open with storm bullet, enter stealth, and focus the elite’s weak spot. If the mini‑boss summons adds, kite them into the choke and collapse them with a second window.
Side rooms (optional loot) Side rooms contain loot and sometimes a single elite. Only clear if you have time or need materials. Use a single stealth window and avoid extended fights that drain cooldowns.
Pre‑boss corridor This corridor may have traps or environmental hazards. Move cautiously and use mobility to dodge hazards. If patrols are present, use stealth to slip past and save windows for the boss.
Boss room entry and initial phase Observe the boss’s opening pattern. Many bosses telegraph a heavy attack after a set number of casts. Time your cloak‑exit shield to overlap with that attack. Open with storm bullet, enter stealth, and land precision shots on the weak spot. Exit stealth with the cloak‑exit shield active to negate the telegraph and immediately reposition.
Boss mid‑phase (adds + mechanics) If the boss spawns adds, prioritize high‑threat adds first. Use mobility to separate the boss from the adds and collapse the adds with a stealth window. Conserve one stealth window for the boss’s final phase.
Boss final phase (short windows) The final phase often has shorter damage windows. Save cooldowns so you can enter stealth at least once during this phase. Use burst amplifier if available and commit to a full sequence: apply stacks, enter stealth, land weak‑spot crits, and exit with defensive overlap.
Extraction room and final pull After the boss, the extraction room may have patrols. Use stealth to slip to the extraction point if possible. If you must clear, use a hybrid marksman and mobility to move quickly between packs and avoid getting pinned.
Practical route timing
Aim to spend no more than 2–3 minutes per non‑boss room on a speedclear.
Conserve one full stealth window for each boss phase.
Use side rooms only if you need materials or if your cooldowns are fully refreshed.
Room‑by‑room micro‑tactics and examples
Entrance corridor micro‑tactic If a patrol is visible, wait for it to pass and then backtrack to a safe angle. Apply storm bullet to the lead enemy and enter stealth from behind for a guaranteed weak‑spot opening.
Choke point micro‑tactic Stand just outside the doorway and bait enemies through. Fire a single precision shot to stagger the lead, then enter stealth and finish the pack as they bunch.
Elite patrol micro‑tactic When facing an elite that charges or leaps, time your cloak‑exit shield to overlap with the leap. Exit stealth as the elite lands to negate the damage and punish the recovery.
Boss telegraph micro‑tactic Watch the boss’s animation closely. If it winds up for a heavy slam, exit stealth with cloak‑exit shield active to negate the slam and immediately punish the recovery with precision shots.

Advanced troubleshooting and tuning checklist
If runs are inconsistent, follow this checklist in order:
Check crit baseline: Ensure reactor provides a 10–15% crit baseline before modules.
Verify primary module: Confirm primary offensive module has crit rate as the top stat.
Cooldown audit: Add cooldown reduction if you can’t re‑enter stealth during boss phases.
Component timing: Practice exiting stealth with cloak‑exit shield to overlap boss telegraphs.
Weapon practice: Spend 10–15 minutes in a safe area practicing follow‑up shots inside the cloak window.
Swap components: If you die to environmental hazards, swap mobility for damage reduction.
Group coordination: In group runs, announce your windows so teammates can stack buffs or crowd control.

Expanded FAQ (additional questions)
How do I know when to swap to a hybrid marksman? Swap when rooms contain many small adds or when the route forces frequent clear windows. Hybrids let you maintain pressure without sacrificing too much single‑target damage.
What if I can’t reach the crit threshold on modules? Shift reactor nodes into crit baseline and use a temporary crit‑boosting external component. Prioritize reaching a reliable crit floor before chasing perfect module rolls.
How do I handle rooms with unpredictable patrols? Use stealth to slip past or to set up ambushes. If patrols are unpredictable, play conservatively: clear one pack at a time and avoid pulling multiple elites.
Is it better to have one perfect module or several good ones? Several good modules with complementary stats are better than one perfect module. Balance across slots gives consistent performance and reduces reliance on a single roll.
How often should I swap components between runs? Swap based on the run goal. For speedclear, use burst amplifier and mobility. For farming or solo progression, use cloak‑exit shield and regen. Keep two saved sets for quick swapping.
