How to Get and Unlock Characters

The best way to get Character Thoughts is through Covert Commissions! By using Secert Letters, you can run Covert Commissions to get a chance to get Thoughts.

Requires Secret Letter

In order to get the chance for Character Thought drops in Covert Commissions, you will need to use Secret Letters. Each Secret Letter is unique per character, meaning only the character in the Secret Letter can drop.

	How to Get Secret Letters
1	Convert Secret Letter Clues
2	Collect from Nocturnal Echoes (Weekly Bosses)
3	Get from Events

Thoughts are Random Rewards

However, Covert Commissions do not guarantee Thoughts drop every time you run it. This is entirely by chance, meaning you can get no Thoughts at all or both 10 and 2 Thoughts at once.

10% Drop of the 10 Thoughts Reward

It's stated outright in the Covert Commissions tab that the drop rate for the Gold-Tier reward (10 thoughts) is 10%. There is no pity system for this so every run stays at a 10% drop rate.

Some characters can be unlocked by simply completing specific quests. By clearing all currently available main story quests, you can get Margie, Truffle and Filbert, Daphne, and Outsider.

It's also possible to simply buy the Thoughts from the in-game shop. However, these require 150 Phoxene Plumule, the game's premium currency. Getting 30 Thoughts for a character will require 4000 Phoxene Plumule.
