Sybaris Prime

Build and guide

Build it. The Sybaris Prime offers a strong critical and status profile, making it versatile for various enemy types. Its burst fire can be a weakness for sustained damage, but it excels in precision engagements.

Unique trait: Burst Fire

It takes an Incarnon Genesis adapter from the Steel Path Circuit, which is where most of its 2026 power comes from.

The Sybaris Prime is a Prime variant of the Sybaris burst-fire rifle, boasting significant improvements over its base model. These enhancements include higher damage, critical chance, status chance, fire rate, and magazine capacity.

Released alongside Oberon Prime and Silva & Aegis Prime, this weapon primarily deals Slash damage, providing a solid foundation for various builds. Its burst fire mechanic requires precise aiming to maximize its damage output.

The Sybaris Prime can be further enhanced with an Incarnon Genesis adapter, obtained from the Steel Path Circuit. This adapter unlocks evolutions that transform the weapon and grant it newfound strength, significantly boosting its late-game viability.

How to get the Sybaris Prime

  1. The Sybaris Prime is vaulted: its relics no longer drop in missions. Open relics you already own, buy them for Aya when Prime Resurgence lists it, or buy the parts for platinum.
  2. Blueprint: Lith C3, Meso O6, Meso Z2, Neo N11, Neo N8 and 2 more (vaulted relics).
  3. Barrel: Lith S7, Meso S5, Meso S7, Meso S8, Axi S13 and 1 more (vaulted relics; the rare slot in Lith S7, Meso S5).
  4. Receiver: Neo G3, Neo I3, Neo N6, Neo S7, Axi C4 (vaulted relics).
  5. Stock: Lith N3, Lith P1, Lith S9, Meso A1, Axi A15 and 1 more (vaulted relics).
  6. Run the fissure tier that matches each relic, refine the rare part’s relic to Radiant, and pick the best of the four results with a squad.
  7. Build the parts, then the weapon: 12 hours each, or rush with platinum.

Builds
