Last Updated on September 9, 2026

Gauss wins on raw speed, no contest: Mach Rush hits 100+ m/s from movement mods alone. Titania’s Razorwing flight is the closest second once you’ve got it unlocked.

Best weapons for Capture

Honest answer: weapons barely matter here, speed does. Firing cancels your sprint, so the play is a burst secondary you tap once or twice at the target, then keep moving. Any of these three deletes a capture target without slowing you down.

WeaponWhy
Kuva NukorIt's a hold-and-melt beam secondary with a huge crit multiplier that chains to nearby enemies, so you don't need precise aim on a target that's juking and running.
EpitaphSevagoth's signature pistol dumps extreme crit/status in a quick charge-or-uncharged burst, killing a moderate-health target in one to two hits without forcing you into a slow aim stance.
LaetumSemi-auto headshots build a meter that flips it into a short full-auto burst mode, letting you finish a downed or fleeing target fast then go right back to sprinting.

Gauss: sprint to the objective

Mach Rush scales off Sprint Speed mods alone and hits 100+ m/s. Kinetic Plating tanks whatever’s in your path.

She needs Bounty farming to build. Lean on Volt’s Speed in the meantime, until you’ve got her unlocked.

Volt: speed for the whole squad

Speed buffs squad sprint and melee by up to 75%, and there’s no learning curve to it. Shocking Speed procs electric on anything he brushes past.

He’s the cheapest frame to build here too, which makes him the go-to early-game Capture speedrunner.

Wukong: dash through anything

Cloud Walker makes him briefly invulnerable and heals him per meter traveled. He never stops to fight, so nothing slows him down.
