Tips that save runs
- Primed Continuity, Continuity, Constitution and Narrow Minded: all add to the same Ability Duration pool.
- The other Augur set mods: each one you add raises how much spent Energy turns into shields.
- Frames with long-running buffs: duration helps most there.
- Augur Message is a set mod. The set bonus converts some of the Energy you spend into shields.
- With all 6 Augur mods equipped, 240% of Energy spent becomes shields.
Mistakes that waste runs
- Expecting the shield bonus from this mod alone; you need the other Augur mods.
- Stacking duration on abilities that work better short, such as Trinity's Energy Vampire.
