Proxima
Fires a hook that pulls in and shocks enemies.
Proxima overview
Control Shell focused on pulling enemies, applying lightning pressure, and finishing targets at close range.
Good for players who like controlling distance, though the damage-over-time style takes practice against aggressive enemies.
How to unlock Proxima

How to play Proxima
Pull fragile enemies toward you, then finish them at close range.
Lightning damage is over time, not burst.
Best for Proxima
- Players who want a ranged opener before melee
- Lightning or damage-over-time setups
- Small-group fights where pulling one enemy changes the encounter
Proxima strengths
- Pull tools can control enemy spacing
- Lightning pressure keeps damage moving after the opener
- Strong against fragile targets that should not be allowed to stay at range
Proxima weaknesses
- Damage-over-time is slower than direct burst
- Pulling the wrong enemy can make fights messier
- Large enemies may reduce the value of control tools
Build priorities
- Improve sidearm and ranged-control consistency
- Use Tarstones that support lightning, status, or follow-up melee
- Keep a close-range weapon ready for pulled enemies
Route notes
- Start from Blackridge Pass and head northeast along the upward path.
- Look for the Shattered Beacon near the Crumbling Tunnel dungeon.
- Check the Marksman's Stone guide if your build focuses on ranged critical hits.
