Choose a coherent path
The reviewed default is carbine and swap utility. An alternative is pulse grenade caster. These are tactical interpretations of the kit, not official roles or measured win-rate rankings.
Kinetic Carbine deals spirit damage while scaling with weapon damage. Damage type and scaling stat must not be confused.

Ability targets
The default target for eligible single-target imbues is ability 3, Kinetic Carbine. Item eligibility still takes precedence: Echo Shard cannot reset an ultimate, charge items apply automatically, and global upgrades affect all eligible abilities.
Item direction
Use these as candidates for the stated path. The planner chooses compatible upgrades, accounts for owned components and reserves room for the lineup response.
Playing against Paradox
Cover and positioning disrupt swap setups; evaluate both damage types.
A partial enemy lineup cannot establish lane assignments, enemy purchases or who is ahead. Supply those details in the planner where supported, and reconsider the plan as the match changes.
