How Echoes work
5 slots and COST
Each Resonator equips up to 5 Echoes, within the COST limit: it is 8 at first, 10 from Data Bank level 2 and 12 from level 9. Only the Echo in the first slot gives its Echo Skill.
Classes
Common (COST 1), Elite (COST 3), Overlord and Calamity (COST 4). The class sets which main stats are possible.
Tuning
Every 5 levels opens a substat slot, revealed with Tuners (from Tacet Fields). Substats are random. Data Modify lets you change the main stat or reroll substats.
| Rarity | Colour | Max level | Substats |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 2 | Green | 10 | 0 |
| Rank 3 | Blue | 15 | 3 |
| Rank 4 | Purple | 20 | 4 |
| Rank 5 | Gold | 25 | 5 |
Data Bank
Levelling the Data Bank
Every Echo you absorb for the first time (and each new rarity of it) gives Data Bank EXP. Levelling up raises the Echo drop rate, the highest rarity you can absorb, your max Stamina and the COST limit, and gives Astrite and materials.
There are also 15 enhanced absorptions per week with a higher chance of COST 4 Echoes (and 5 for COST 1 and 3). They reset on Mondays at 04:00 server time.
| Level | Base drop rate | Max rarity | COST |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 6% | Rank 2 | 8 |
| 2 | 10% | Rank 2 | 10 |
| 5 | 15% | Rank 3 | 10 |
| 8 | 15% | Rank 4 | 10 |
| 9 | 15% | Rank 4 | 12 |
| 10 | 20% | Rank 4 | 12 |
| 15 | 20% | Rank 5 | 12 |
| 21–30 | 20% | Rank 5 only | 12 |
