What is Awakening?
Additional Character Abilities
Awakening a character in NTE unlocks new abilities or enhances existing ones. These effects are usually tied to gaining advantages in combat, such as increased damage dealt and reduced skill cooldowns.
A6 is the Final Awakening Lv.
You can Activate
an Awakening a total of 6 times, meaning you need a total of 7 character duplicates to reach A6.
Resonance Effects at A3 and A6
At A3 and A6, character-exlusive Resonance effects are unlocked. The bonuses from Resonance Effects are significantly stronger compared to the standard Awakenings.
Awakening Effects are Adjustable
You can choose the activated effect during Awakening a character. Additionally, even after choosing an effect, you can de-activate it and select a different effect at any time from the Awakening screen, allowing you to customize your character on the fly.
How to Awaken
Requires Character Duplicates
Awakening allows you to enhance characters by consuming Mind Shards, which are obtained when you get a duplicate of a character you already own. Each character can be Ascended up to A6, and each Ascension can enhance skills or unlock new passive effects.
Awakening Changes Playstyle
Awakening characters will reduce skill cooldowns, increase damage, and extend skill effect durations, significantly changing how the character feels to play. Therefore, you should prioritize Awakening the characters you want to use as the core of your party.
Awaken from Character Screen
Awakening can be done from the Awaken section of the character screen. For each Mind Shard, you can increase a character's Awakening by one level. Unlocking a stage will unlock that Awakening level and display the character's icon.
Different from Ascension
Note that Awakening is different from the Ascension system, which raises a character's level cap. Characters can also be enhanced in various other ways, such as Esper Abilities so take note of what you're upgrading.
