Why Farm Echoes?
Desired Abilities vary Depending on the Role
Farm Echoes according to the role of the Character that will equip it or the ablities of the character. Basically you want abilities that enhance the Character's strengths.
What Can Be Rerolled
| Sonata Effect | You get one for each Echo you obtain. Each Echo has a fixed Sonata Effect. |
|---|---|
| Status (1st one) | You can get 1 random Status when you get an Echo. The status you can get depends on the cost of the Echo. |
| Tuning | You unlock 1 slot every time you level it up 5 levels. Random additional stats will be added by using a specific resource for each rarity. |
There are 2 stats that you can reroll: Sonata Effect and Tuning. Find the best stats that match the abilities of the character that will be equipping it.
▶︎ How To Tune EchoesHow to Farm Echoes
- Increase Data Bank Level
- Check required Sonata Effect
- Farm Echoes
- Reroll the Sonata Effect and first stats
- Level Up for Tuning
First gather lots of Echoes to level up the Data Bank. By leveling up, it will increase the probability of obtaining Echoes and the rarity of the Echoes, so you will be able to reroll efficiently.
When you reach Level 15 in the Data Bank, the highest rarity of the Echo that you can get will increase to 5 stars.
▶Increase Data Bank Level 15 GuideIf you defeat an Elite, Overload or Calamity Class enemy a certain number of times and no Echo appears, there is a mercy system that gives you a guaranteed Echo. The number of defeats is counted for each class, so always try to defeat the Echo you want when you reach the mercy limit.
| Elite Class (Cost 3) | If they don't appear after 1-3 defeats, then the 4th enemy you defeat will leave an Echo. Counted only as Elite Class. |
|---|---|
| Overlord Class (Cost 4) | If they don't appear after the 1st one, then the next enemy will give you an Echo. Counted only as Overlord Class. If Enhanced Drop Rate count is still remaining, it will count towards that first. |
| Calamity Class (Cost 4) | If they don't appear after the 1st one, then the next enemy will give you an Echo. Counted only as Calamity Class. If Enhanced Drop Rate count is still remaining, it will count towards that first. |
Each Echo has 1 fixed Sonata Effect, and 1 character may need 2 or 5 to activate the set effect. The same Echo all have the same Sonata Effect, so you need to get the Echo that has the Sonata Effect you want.
By using Waveplates to challenge the Tacet Field, you can narrow down the Echo that has the Sonata Effect.
Defeat enemies that appear on the field or in dungeons. At random, Echoes will appear after defeating which you can absorb which allows you to get the Echo.
The maximum level will increase with the rarity of the Echo. With a high rarity you can unlock more slots so the rarity will make a huge difference to the stats.
The first part that can be rerolled is the Sonata Effect and the first main stat that comes with the Echo. The stat granted will change randomly according to the cost of the Echo, so reroll the status that best fits the character's abilities.
Every time you increase the Echo level by 5, you can perform Tuning and get an additional Status. The additional Status and values you get are random so you want to reroll while making sure you don't run out of Tuning materials.
Once you have done Tuning, you can not reset the random Status or values you got. If you did not get the Status that you want, you will have to gather Echoes again to repeat the process.
| Resources | Refund Rate |
|---|---|
| Tuner | 30% |
| Sealed Tube | 60 to 80% |
It is recommended to salvage Echoes that did not reach the ideal status as a result of Tuning. You can salvage by: Terminal → Backpack → Echoes → Trash icon. Salvaging echoes will return some of the strengthening resources, so then it can be used for the next rerolling.
