[Heavy Attack] : Throw your Praxic Blade, which will seek out multiple targets. Attacking recalls the Blade while it is in flight. [Heavy Attack] : Hold to perform a more powerful throw, sending the Blade on a straight path in the direction of your aim. Releasing the button recalls the Blade.

Armor

Your grenade becomes a cage of loyal moths that release on impact and fly toward the nearest target or ally. If they reach a target, they detonate in a blinding explosion; if they reach an ally, the moths grant your ally a Void overshield.

How It Works

These Moths are exceptionally loyal... and numerous. Additionally you'll have a plethora of sandbox verbs at your disposal: Bolt Charge, Blind, Devour, Void Overshield, Weaken, Sever, and Woven Mail.

Reminder that Moths spawned by Moth Grenades are affected by the Grenade stat, so juice that stat up as much as you can and fill it out with Font Mods. High Weapons stat is the next priority so you're cranking out the damage with your Praxic Blade.

Praxic Blade mods: Offensive Form, Forceful Blade, Impact Core (to Sever targets), and the Hyperblade catalyst for Amplified trigger. Reminder that Bolt Charge granted by Dielectric can be built up and discharged despite not being on an Arc Super.

Utilising the Sage Protector set (Equilibrium armor) to have high uptime for your Grenade and Class Ability for Moth Grenade and Ensnaring Slam usage respectively. Threads of Mind and Generation are used to stack up the generation of both stats too.

Ensnaring Slam used on a group of enemies can grant up to 20s of Woven Mail in addition to Suspending them all. Killing them while Sage Protector's Blade Focus is active will easily return your Class Ability for spamming those slams.

Your second Aspect is a toss-up: while I've utilised Whirling Maelstrom in this build to grant access to Unravel, Widow's Silk grants an additional Moth grenade (x3 charges), and Threaded Specter for decoy clones and Threadling access. The choice is up to you depending on your playstyle and the activity.

Thread of Continuity is used for increasing the effects of Suspend, Unravel, and Sever. Your 4th Fragment is up to you; I went for Warding in case the main gameplay loop is on a cooldown and you need some extra protection in a pinch.
