Classes, elements, signs
- Each hero has a class, an element and a sign.
- The Hero menu shows stats and gear, and raises, promotes and awakens.
The six classes
- Knight: shields allies from the front line.
- Warrior: balanced, attack and defense.
- Thief: big damage from high Speed.
- Mage: area skills from the back line, often with debuffs.
- Soul Weaver: heals and grants buffs.
- Ranger: helps allies and debuffs enemies.
The five elements
- Ice beats Fire, Fire beats Earth, Earth beats Ice.
- Light and Dark beat each other.
- The match-up weighs heavily on damage and crit chance.
The constellation
- The sign sets base stats and the stats awakening adds.
- It also decides the catalysts for skills and awakening.
Your team
- Up to four heroes per team; the front one is hit more often.
- Team CP tells you if it is ready for harder battles. Each team can take a name.
- No duplicates in a team; with the same hero as Defender, same-name passives do not add up.
Guardians
- Creatures of Diché, goddess of life, earned along the Episode.
- Huge damage with souls, stronger as team CP grows; each has its own skills.
- Never summoned in the Arena.
Sending heroes back
- Send heroes back for Gold; from 3★, Silver Transmit Stones and Spirit Blooms too.
- The stones buy MolaGora, Penguins and charms in the shop.
- A hero sent back never returns; limited heroes need Devotion SSS first.
Friendship level
- It rises where Energy or Spectral Cores are spent, and with Arena, Guild War and World Arena wins.
- Not in the Expedition nor the Descent.
- It unlocks expressions and voices; 4-5★ heroes earn skill points that replace MolaGora.
