Sirin · Ranged Grace
Overview
Mainstream Sirin bow route: Thistle charged Arrow Hail plus Picktrix Powder or Trick of the Light to clump enemies. Nettle covers melee when the bow is awkward. Fragile before Arcanics unlock — power spikes once decoy + hail combo is online.
- Pact: Sirin
- Virtue: Grace (all points)
- Playstyle: Ranged AoE, decoy setup, charged bow burst
Core loadout
- Thistle — Grace longbow. Charged Arrow Hail is the main AoE tool; scales with Grace.
- Juniper — Budget bow before Thistle is available.
- Nettle — Grace short blade sidearm for tight spaces or single targets.
- Picktrix Powder — Courage Arcanic. AoE blind/stun — sets up charged hail on grouped enemies.
- Trick of the Light — Spirit Arcanic. Decoy draws enemies; explodes when they close in.
- Glamour — Grace Arcanic. Invisibility for repositioning or boss charged headshots.
How to play it
- Do not stack Picktrix and Trick at once — use one setup tool, then charge Arrow Hail on the cluster.
- Trash opener: Trick of the Light (or Picktrix) → 1–2 Arrow Hails to build Smite → charged headshot → Pull Smite.
- Boss approach: Glamour to go invisible, wait for the boss to stop moving, then charged bow shot to the head.
- Swap to Nettle only in cramped spaces — bow charge is slow in corridors.
- Keep decoys or powder up — Sirin is extremely fragile when crowd control breaks down.

- Trash opener: Place Trick of the Light in front of enemies or apply Picktrix Powder (don't stack both at once) → Arrow Hail 1–2 times to build Smite → charged headshot snipe → Pull Smite.
- Boss approach: Use Glamour to go invisible, wait for the boss to stop moving, then charge a bow shot to the head.
- Survival rule: When crowd control breaks down, Sirin is extremely fragile — keep decoys/powder up or reposition with Glamour. Scattered or weak-point-less enemies are the hardest matchup.
