How to Play Depths of Illusive Realm
Each season of “Illusive Realm” offers different Resonator choices for the challenge. During battles, you will gain various buffs to enhance your powers against enemies and overcome challenges. Conquer different difficulty levels to earn rewards!
Select Resonator
Once you enter the Illusive Realm, you will be prompted to select a Resonator for the challenge. You can choose a Trial Character or a Resonator from your own roster that is playable for the stage. Here are the following Trial and Playable Resonators for each Stage:
Select Echo, Metaphors and Upgrades
There will be NPCs waiting for you once you enter the Illusive Realm. Interact with them to be given an option to pick an Echo, Metaphor, and buffs for your selected Resonator.
What is a Metaphor?
Each time you clear Memory Zone, you get to select randomized Metaphors. These Metaphors provide upgrades that apply buffs or enhancements to your Echo or Resonator.
Clear Memory Zone
In each stage, the play loop of the Special Event involves conquering rooms called Memory Zones. These rooms feature various TD variants to eliminate. Upon successfully clearing a room, you will receive Dream Fragments and proceed to the next zone. Use upgrades wisely to strengthen your Echo and Resonator for the final boss battle at the end of each stage.
What is Dream Fragments?
Dream Fragments are an indispensable currency during your exploration of the Illusive Realm. This currency allows you to purchase various items from the Transaction NPC, such as Metaphors and healing items. It will be reset when the Depths of Illusive Realm is challenged again.
Defeat the Final Boss
In the final room, your goal is to defeat the boss within the time limit. Defeating Illusive Realm bosses should be a breeze with the right upgrades and Metaphors. Successfully clearing the stage will earn you rewards.
Upgrade Permanent Buff
You can invest in upgrades in Thought Evolution using Memory Points outside of the stages. Memory Points are obtained after defeating the final boss. Unlike Metaphors, which reset each time you challenge a stage, the skills unlocked from Thought Evolution are permanent.
