Mag: Free as a starter choice, otherwise Market for Platinum, Clan Dojo Tenno Lab research, or Circuit tier 10. Pick Mag at the start if you can; otherwise the Sergeant on Iliad is one of the easiest bosses in the game. Mag Prime: Mag Prime is vaulted; Prime Resurgence or trading only.

|---|---|
| Neuroptics | The Sergeant on Iliad, Phobos (about 39%) |
