Cheat sheets that run it
Tips that save runs
- Blind Rage: a much larger Ability Strength mod, but it cuts Ability Efficiency, so Intensify is the cheaper way to add strength.
- Transient Fortitude: adds Ability Strength and cuts Ability Duration, so it suits short-cast abilities.
- Empower from the Helminth: its Ability Strength bonus is additive, like Intensify.
- Ability Strength mods add together rather than multiply.
- Flawed Intensify is a separate, weaker mod: 12% at rank 3.
Mistakes that waste runs
- Farming Cetus for it before doing the Phobos Junction, which hands one out for free.
- Mixing it up with Flawed Intensify, which only gives 12%.
- Treating +30% as the whole strength budget; other mods add to it.
