Quick tips

  • Prologue and Opening Chapters

    Try the demo first

    The demo covers the prologue, so you can try the game before committing.

  • Prologue and Opening Chapters

    Good starting abilities

    Phoenix and Garuda are the first two Eikons. Rising Flames plus Flames of Rebirth is a good starting pair.

  • Prologue and Opening Chapters

    Spend AP on Rising Flames

    Put spare ability points into Rising Flames first. It does modest damage but has one of the shortest cooldowns and is easy to land, so it stays useful at any stage.
