What Are Talent Materials?
Used To Increase Character Talents
Talent materials are needed to increase the talents of characters. Each character has a specific type of talent materials they need to use so take note of that when building characters.
Requires Ascenion Level 2 Per Character
You must get your character past Ascension Level 2 first before you can start upgrading their talents. To do this, you will need to level them up and the ascend them!
Talents Become Stronger When Leveled Up
Leveling up a character's talent will increase the damage done and effectiveness of that specific talent. Players can increase the Normal Attack, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst of all the characters in the game.
No Need To Level Up All Talents
Although you can increase all the talents of the character, it's not recommended to do so for all characters. Only increase all talents for your main DPS, while Supports & Sub-DPS should only have their Skills and Burst increased to save resources.
