Potential Materials and Methods
Duplicate Heroes in Draws

When you obtain a duplicate Hero from a Draw, you receive "Potential Points" instead of the Hero. These "Potential Points" are Limit Break materials exclusive to that specific Hero and cannot be used for other Heroes.
Unlocked from "Potential" in Hero Info

After obtaining Potential Points from a Draw, go to "Potential" in the Hero Info to unlock them. Potential unlocks sequentially from Tier 1, up to a maximum of 10 Tiers.
Full Unlock Requires at Least 7 Copies

Fully unlocking Potential requires 10 Potential Points, but you can earn 4 points from Mastery: 1 from maxing Shared Mastery and 1 each from maxing the 3 Weapon Mastery types. This means that if Draws are your only source, you need the initial copy plus 6 additional copies, totaling 7 copies.
Character Progression Priority
Hero Potential Effects and Impact
Effects Vary by Tier and Weapon

Each Hero has set Potential effects, with enhanced attributes varying by Tier and Weapon type. All effects can be viewed on the Potential screen.
Potential Applies to All Weapons

Potential is a Hero-specific enhancement and does not depend on the equipped Weapon type. Focus on Limit Breaking whenever you get duplicate Heroes from Draws, regardless of Weapon strength.
Stats and Normal Attack Enhancement

All Heroes share certain upgrades that increase base Stats such as Attack and Defense. Since this boosts overall power, it is a highly versatile enhancement not limited to specific scenarios.
Shared Stat Increases and Tiers
| Unlock Tier | Effect |
| Tier 1 | [SSR] Attack +5%, Defense +4%, Max HP +2% [SR] Attack +3%, Defense +2%, Max HP +1% |
| Tier 3 | [SSR] Attack +10%, Defense +8%, Max HP +3% [SR] Attack +6%, Defense +5%, Max HP +2% |
| Tier 8 | [SSR] Attack +15%, Defense +12%, Max HP +5% [SR] Attack +9%, Defense +7%, Max HP +3% |
Increased Damage and Effect Values

Damage and healing amounts for Special Attacks, Skills, and more are increased. Since the enhancements at each Tier vary by Hero and Weapon type, check what has been enhanced after unlocking Potential.
Some Unlock Additional Effects

Some unlocks provide new effects that enhance your strategic options. For example, gaining extra Burst Gauge on certain attacks or resetting Cooldowns on Crit; these types of effects can be obtained.
