Strategic Value

Elemental Siphon is considered one of the essential perks in tier 2 of the artifact because:

  • Provides consistent elemental pickup generation across all builds
  • Works with both Kinetic and matching elemental weapons, offering flexibility
  • Supports ability regeneration and elemental synergies
  • Complements the artifact's focus on elemental damage and effects

This perk is particularly valuable for builds that rely heavily on elemental abilities and need consistent access to elemental pickups for ability regeneration and elemental synergies.
