Element mechanics and detailed interactions

Understanding element interaction is crucial for building effective teams and exploiting enemy weaknesses. These mechanics help players searching for detailed damage calculators and synergy guides.

  • Divine: Deals 25% less damage to all enemies but takes 44% less damage from standard attacks. For every +1 speed, gain +5% stacking attack.
  • Holy: Deals 25% less damage to Unholy and Demonic enemies. Gains stacking health and damage for nearby enemies affected by status effects (5% per enemy, up to 50%).
  • Demonic: Deals 33% more damage to Holy and Divine enemies. Using abilities grants +50% ability damage on the next ability.
  • Unholy: Deals 50% more damage to Holy and Divine enemies. After casting, increases damage enemies take by +33% for 20 seconds.
  • Unbound / Bound: Unbound and Bound units deal standard damage with extra bonuses. Unbound gains stacking takedown damage and empowerment at max stacks; Bound increases support buffs and grants a decaying shield at max stacks.

Unit passives and detailed abilities

Below are concise, searchable descriptions of the new unit passives and mechanics so players can craft synergy-driven team comps and guides for specific encounters.

Griffin — Heavenly Feather (passive highlights)

  • Upgrade cost scales with current yen (True Power!).
  • Buffs allies by small incremental damage per yen spent, stacking to a cap.
  • Feather milestone system grants HP and damage benefits as feathers are acquired.

Falcon of Darkness — Darkness Merged (passive highlights)

  • Salvation: Gain Eclipse stacks for damage dealt; stacks grant damage, cooldown reduction, and range bonuses in tiers.
  • Eclipse activates at 100 stacks to inflict Fear (targets take +15% damage) and Stun for a short duration.

Berserker (banner) — All I See is Red

  • Chance to trigger a secondary attack; secondary hits can apply healing reduction or reduce elemental resistance depending on attack type.
  • Strong single-target bonus when only one enemy remains: huge damage and survivability bonuses and a concussion effect.

Skeleton Knight — Death's Protection

  • When HP falls below threshold, massive damage reduction and immunity to status for a duration.
  • Chance to recover HP on damage taken and grants massive temporary attack to allies within range while on the field.
  • Judgement mechanic grants stacks on death that can occasionally provide team-wide KO resistance and full HP restore on redeploy.

Professor — The First Architect

  • Periodic permanent damage buff to spawned units that persists after death and stacks to a high cap.
  • Passive economy generation and a base survivability mechanic to prevent an otherwise lethal hit.

Unit rankings and meta notes

Quick snapshot of how these units fit into current playstyles and the shifting meta. This section is optimized for players searching for tierlist explanations and unit synergy breakdowns.

  • Meta shifters: Griffin (Heavenly), Skeleton Knight
  • Meta units: Falcon of Darkness (Darkness Merged)
  • Decent units: Professor, Berserker
  • Mid / situational: Falcon (banner version currently underperforming)

Notes: Griffin provides exceptional support passives for sustained team scaling. Skeleton Knight offers both defensive and supportive presence. Falcon of Darkness is a high-damage but high-cost option that can dominate certain trial builds. Professor is niche but has extremely high upside in long-duration economy and spawn-dependent stages. Berserker has strong single-target and burst potential but is RNG dependent.

How to obtain new souls and soul system changes

New souls and crafting changes affect how players optimize builds for damage, survivability, and farming efficiency. Below is a simple guide to each new soul and how to get them.

  • Soul of Pure Agony — craftable via new crafting recipes.
  • Soul of Infinite Riches — craftable via new crafting recipes.
  • Domain of Love Soul — craftable via new crafting recipes.
  • Crying Behelit Soul — obtainable from the new portals.

Important: players cannot equip multiple copies of certain exclusive souls (for example, fire or riches souls). The equip limit is enforced to prevent exploitative stacking. If you are currently able to equip more than the allowed limit you are likely experiencing a temporary bug and should expect a fix.

Balance changes, bug fixes, and miscellaneous news

Patch v5.5 includes balance adjustments focused on economy and quality-of-life fixes. The development team acknowledges earlier leaks that caused delays and states compensation content will appear in upcoming updates.

  • Increased base yen generation and yen capacity to speed up long-term progression.
