{{Header Full|Crimson Insight}} |
|
|
<h6><span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> is a feature added in [[Wintry Shackles]]. <span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> can be activated by entering the Event stage <span class="red">“[The Forbidden Church]”</span> in Chapter 1 or 2, and choosing the option <span class="red">“[Break through the blockade to investigate the truth]”</span>.<br> |
|
|
This will have three main effects:<br> |
|
|
*The player will be able to [perceive gnosis]. This is a required condition for making certain choices in Event Nodes. |
|
|
*<span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> value can now be accumulated during the current run. |
|
|
*<span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> values are divided into four levels. Activating <span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> in <span class="red">“[The Forbidden Church]”</span> node in Chapter 1 or 2 will initially grant <span class="red">5 Crimson Insight value</span> (level <span class="red">1</span>).<br> |
|
|
The maximum value of <span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> is <span class="red">100</span>; the highest level is <span class="red">4</span>. Higher levels increase the chance of extra Artifacts dropping at the end of a battle and S-Rank characters appearing in summons. At the same time, enemies will become significantly stronger.<br> |
|
|
<span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> value can be increased by completing certain battle and event nodes. Nodes that increase the value will be marked with a red eye icon.<br> |
|
|
*The <span class="red">“[Another Round Table]”</span> Event Node will appear in Chapter 3. |
|
|
|
|
|
{{Header Notch|Declension}} |
|
|
Upon activating <span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> in Chapter 1 or 2, the <span class="red">“[Another Round Table]”</span> node will appear in Chapter 3.<br> |
|
|
Choosing the option <span class="red">“[Accept Declension]”</span> here will increase the Star Level of a character of the player’s choice by 1.<br> In addition, Bond Level 5 for the element that corresponds to the [Declined] character will be unlocked. This allows a character’s Star Level to reach 3, which is impossible through regular means (i.e. summoning them multiple times).<br> Make sure the character who will undergo [Declension] is already at Star Level 2 before entering this node. Choosing a character whose Star Level is at 1 to undergo [Declension] will increase their Star Level to 2; a chance to undergo [Declension] is available only once every run, and thus it will result in never being able to upgrade a character to Star Level 3 during the current run.<br> |
|
|
Activating <span class="red">Crimson Insight</span> in Chapter 1 or 2, and having a character undergo [Declension] are prerequisites for Ending 4 and 5. |

<h6>Characters the player has not yet acquired via R&D (gacha) in the main game are available as trial characters. The trial characters will be at Level 80, Ultima Awakened, and equipped with Memories and their 6-Star Signature Weapon. The trial version of S-Rank characters will be at Evolution Rank S at Star level 1, and SS at Star level 2. However, Leap upgrades will not be available; it is therefore not recommended to rely on the trial versions of the characters whose performance depends greatly on their Leap upgrades (such as [[Liv: Luminance]]) in this mode, especially when attempting harder difficulties.</h6> |

{{Header Full|Elemental Team Overview}} |
|
{{Header Full|Team Building Tips}} |
|
|
<h6>Optimal elemental team compositions introduced in the [[Team Compositions/Global Teams|Team Comps]] page can help the player get through the higher difficulties of the mode more efficiently. |
|
<h5>Note: This section of the guide assumes a free-to-play level of investment for all characters (SS Rank or below / trial characters) and is aimed towards newer players who are not yet used to the game's battle system. Experienced players with fully built teams will have little difficulty progressing through Cursed Waves.</h5> |
|
|
|
|
|
{{Header Notch|Physical}} |
|
|
* <h6> The Physical team can easily trigger the Final Judgement Bond, which allows the player to instantly execute any enemy whose HP is below 30% at the maximum level. This bond requires the player to recruit Bianca: Zero, Bianca: Veritas, and Bianca: Stigmata, two of which are available from Invitation of Blade. </h6> |
|
|
* <h6> The Physical team can also utilize the Pure Mercy Bond. This greatly boosts Liv: Eclipse or Liv: Luminance’s healing abilities and allows her to deal significant DMG at the maximum level. This bond requires the player to recruit Liv: Eclipse, Liv: Lux, Liv: Luminance, and Liv: Emyprea, two of which are available from Invitation of Blade. |
|
|
</h6> |
|
|
* <h6> Among the S-Rank Physical Ominframes, Liv: Luminance and Rosetta: Rigor require Leap upgrades for optimal performance. When using these characters, keep in mind that Leap upgrades are not available for trial characters. </h6> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{Header Notch|Fire}} |
|
|
* <h6> The Fire team is extremely effective at higher difficulties with Lee: Hyperreal in the party thanks to the amount of automatic dodge and invincibility built into his kit. This survivability is unaffected even as a trial character, and he offers great DPS as well. </h6> |
|
|
* <h6>We recommend using the Fire team for an easy, stable run. |
|
|
</h6> |
|
</h6> |
|
|
<h6> |
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, powerful Bond effects exclusive to this mode allows the player to tackle challenges even when Invitation RNG prevents them from assembling a perfect "meta" team. Always keep an eye on bond synergy when recruiting characters—since characters not in the active party still counts towards activating Bond effects, it may sometimes be beneficial to recruit weaker and/or off-element characters to trigger the buffs. |
|
|
|
|
{{Header Notch|Lightning}} |
|
|
* <h6> Until Wintry Shackles, we do not recommend using the Lightning team, as it lags significantly behind other elemental teams (especially Physical and Fire) in both survivability and DPS.</h6> |
|
|
* <h6> From Wintry Shackles, Lucia: Crimson Weave becomes a powerful “hypercarry” of the Lightning team. She relies less on having optimal team support, which lessens the impact of RNG when it comes to Artifacts and Invitations in the early game as long as the player manages to recruit her.</h6> |
|
|
* <h6> The Lightning team lacks powerful Bond synergy. The Hell Guards bond (members: Vera: Rozen, Vera: Garnet, No. 21: XXI, No. 21: Feral Scent, Noctis: Indomitus), which gives increased DMG in exchange for penalties such as losing Signal Orbs and HP, can work against unprepared players. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{Header Notch|Dark}} |
|
|
* <h6> We do not recommend using the Dark team as it lacks both survivability and DMG compared to other elements. |
|
|
</h6> |
|
</h6> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{Header Notch|Noteworthy Bonds}} |
|
|
*<h6><b>Pure Mercy</b>: This Bond allows Support and Amplifier Constructs to contribute significant DPS while retaining their healing capabilities. It is especially useful when using the Physical (with [[Liv: Luminance]]) or Fire (with [[Liv: Empyrea]]) team.</h6> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
*<h6><b>Fighter's Wings</b>: At higher levels, this is a powerful defensive bond that greatly enhances survivability while triggering counterattacks. It is especially useful when attempting the higher difficulties and/or under the effect of Crimson Insight.</h6> |
|
{{Header Notch|Ice}} |
|
|
* <h6> The Ice team offers a defensive playstyle that utilizes the survivability of Chrome: Glory and Wanshi: Hypnos.</h6> |
|
|
* <h6> The Fighter’s Wings and Fortress Bonds further boost the Ice team’s survivability. The former grants Shield and Super Armor, prevents instant KO, and deals counter DMG; the latter grants Shield and invincibility.</h6> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*<h6><b>Little League</b>: This Bond provides various useful buffs in exchange for having to preserve Tinbread Cookies. The Signature Energy recovery effect is particularly notable—stacking multiple Signature Energy recovery buffs from Bonds and Artifacts enables characters to perform their Signature Move infinitely, leading to an easy win.</h6> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
*<h6><b>Final Judgement</b>: The highest level of this Bond instantly kills any enemy under certain HP threshold. This effect also applies to bosses.</h6> |
|
{{Header Notch|Uniframes}} |
|
|
* <h6> Consider recruiting Chrome: Arclight from Invitations of Lightning alongside Lightning Uniframes to utilize the Fighter’s Wing Bond and boost the survivability of a Uniframe team.</h6> |
|
|
* <h6> Because Uniframe characters appear from Invitations of all elements, the player can easily increase the level of the powerful Outlier Bond easily. </h6> |
|
|
* <h6> The lack of healing outside passive effects from Artifacts and Bonds in a pure Uniframe party can be risky in higher difficulties. </h6> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*<h6><b>Fortress</b>: This is another powerful defensive Bond, granting Shield and invincibility. It has great synergy with <b>Fighter's Wings</b>, since [[Chrome: Glory]] is a part of both Bonds. |
