Guide
After Penumbra was nerfed, I did some experimenting and came to the conclusion that it is still a near-mandatory card for Binary Star. Starting Haven/Veteran is usually preferred, but you can also start with Life Rip to counteract the Penumbra nerf before going for other items. Ideally, you play as a midrange off-support with the setup, and you will probably outduel most squishies at this range (especially early-game). Having Sidereal IV + Relativity IV offers you more consistent survivability rather than just relying on lifesteal. This loadout can also work running The Power Cosmeum to have the extra utility, especially with the upcoming base DPS increase.
