Weapon Upgrade
Increase CS With Weapon Upgrade
Weapons can be improved in two ways: level up and advancement. Leveling up requires materials to increase enhancement cap, while for advancement, you will need to obtain the same weapon through gacha.
How To Obtain Weapons
SSR Weapons can be obtaining through gacha banners. Others can be obtained from story quests, rewards from events, and chests after defeating field bosses. Be sure to get them to raise your weapon advancement.
Leveling Weapons
Leveling up weapons allows for upgrade and enhancement cap. Upgrade increases the level of your weapon and enhancement cap raises the current level limit of your weapon. The Enhancement Cap requires certain character level before it gets unlocked. Be sure to check this from time to time to upgrade it when it becomes available.
Weapon Advancement
Advancement does not only improve your weapon's stats, but it also enhances your weapon's performance. This can be raised up to 6 times. You will need to obtain again (get duplicates) from gacha banners in order to increase this.

Stats Comparison - SR and SSR Weapons
When comparing stats, a fully Advanced SR will have about the same stats as an SSR with 1 to 2 Advancements, but will have the same CS as an SSR with 3 to 4 Advancements. It is relatively easy to obtain SR weapons so if you want to raise your CS easily, it is not a bad idea to focus on your SR weapons.

Improve CS With Matrix Upgrade
Matrix is a feature that only unlocks upon reaching level 20. Matrices are items that you can affix on weapons to raise their stats. There are 4 types of Matrices that you can equip (Mind, Memory, Belief, and Emotion). Equip the right Matrix for the correct weapon to maximize your stats.

|---|---|---|
| N | 3-piece set | - |
| R | 3-piece set | - |

Number Of Advancements

Matrices Should Be A Priority

|---|
Upgrade Depends On Your Character Level
There are no breakthrough materials needed when strengthening Matrices, and their level can only be raised up to your character's level. N rarity Matrices can only be raised to level 20, so if you have an R rarity matrix or higher, use the N rarity matrix as an upgrade material.
Advancement Comparison for SR and SSR Matrix
A non-advanced SSR matrix is stronger than a fully Advanced SR matrix. However, since we are only comparing the stats, it is still best that you look for the best set piece effect for your character. If you are unable to complete the set piece, it is recommended to prioritize equipping SSR matrices.
