- 4Treat other Shell pairings as unknown unless separately documented.
Tracking change
Patch 1 improved light-attack tracking for Axatana. This affects connection and feel, but the patch note does not provide a numeric tracking value or a complete damage comparison.
The safest conclusion is that light attacks should follow targets more reliably than before. Relative rank and clear speed still depend on the complete build and player execution.
Proxima/Lightning dependency
The available NG++ test calls Axatana central to a Proxima Lightning area-clear setup, with Salvaged Trebuchaxe as the observed sidearm. That makes the build useful for exploration-clear goals, but also highly conditional.
Do not copy only the Shell name and expect the same result. Check Lightning access, weapon state, sidearm, and progression investment together.
