Spectral Scream - Exhale a deep breath of elemental destruction. Chroma’s energy color determines the element.

Effigy - Chroma turns his pelt into a massive sentry that strengthens nearby allies and engulfs enemies in elemental attacks.
Acquisition: Main blueprint is rewarded upon completion of the quest The New Strange. Component blueprints are awarded by completing Junctions.
Chroma’s my favorite brain-off frame. I’ve got a Infested Mobility STR/DUR build I use in place of volt for speeding through levels. And his Deluxe skin comes with that big sword, probably my favorite in the game.
I use the Combat Discipline Aura, so his buffs are always active. Beyond just being a fast weapons platform, I’ve also tanked his efficiency and slapped on the zariman arcane that heals when you use abilities, so he’s also fairly competent team healer. He can’t heal objectives though, which kinda sucks.
