Silver Palace Resonance System: Reactor Attributes & Every Resonance Effect

Silver Palace has no elemental reactions: each of the seven Reactor Attributes fills a Resonance meter as you attack, and a full meter fires that attribute's own Resonance Effect. Ignis triggers Extreme Heat, Glacies triggers Zero Degrees, and so on. This guide covers all seven attributes, the effect each one fires, who carries them, and how to build a team around them, using Dichotomy beta footage (CBT2, July to August 2026) checked against Elementa's combat notice.

Updated 31 October 2026: rewritten around the Dichotomy client. It adds the in-game text of every Resonance Effect, the Amplitude stats Resonance DPS characters scale on, and the four-character team. Resonance Levels and Phase Transition were first-test (Monotype) mechanics and are now covered as history. Silver Palace launches on 14 December 2026 (UTC+8).

What are the seven Reactor Attributes in Silver Palace?

Every character channels Silverium through a Reactor, and the Reactor's attribute decides what kind of damage they deal. The official descriptions from the expo attribute list:

The shorthand column is GxG Noir's, from 1:09 of their mechanics explainer. It helps when reading creator videos, but the game only uses the Latin names.

What is the Reactor in Silver Palace?

Players search "Silver Palace reactor" for three different things, and the beta uses the word for all of them:

GxG Noir adds at 2:20 that Silverdrip, earned from parries and Executions, speeds up how fast the Reactor gauge fills. Catalysts have their own Catalysts guide. This page is about the first meaning: the attribute and the Resonance it builds.

How does the Resonance meter work?

Elementa's combat notice of 22 July 2026 is the official rule: "Characters build their Resonance meters as they attack. Once full, a Resonance Effect is triggered based on their Reactor attribute, significantly increasing their DMG dealt."

The beta's own Resonance Effect screen says the same in one line: "Once the Resonance meter is full, a Resonance Effect is triggered based on the attributes of character's Reactor."

Creators who played the beta describe what that looks like in a fight:

• It loops. Rexlent says at 1:36 to 2:07 that the gauge refills every time you keep attacking, so a Resonance DPS triggers the effect again and again. "Every time it's full they just do more DOT."
• It sits on the enemy. GxG Noir describes Resonance building "on the enemy" at 1:18. Fan-compiled footage shows one small gauge per attribute on the enemy's nameplate. The official notice words it per character; both readings fit a meter that tracks each attribute you are hitting the target with.
• Stuns speed it up. Blue Screen Of Tech says at 3:51 of their combat audit that a Stunned enemy gets a higher Resonance accumulation rate, on top of a DEF reduction.

What does each Resonance Effect do?

Each attribute has exactly one Resonance Effect. Two creators filmed the full list in the CBT2 client, and between them every line is legible.

The Alba and Ferrugo rows are disputed. The beta text reads "Upon reaching full Ferrugo Resonance, Disintegration is applied" and "Upon reaching full Alba Resonance, the target is struck once". Fan sites list them the other way round, arguing that the icon printed on each row belongs to the other attribute. We follow the words on screen and flag it. In practice it changes little for now: no playable character carries Ferrugo.

Superconductor rewards fast hitters, because Overloaded pays out per hit. Extreme Heat, Dark Star and Decay reach enemies beyond the target, which makes Ignis, Gravitas and Radiatio the crowd attributes. That reading is ours, from the text above.

Which characters carry each Reactor Attribute?

Cynthia II was Ignis in the first test. In CBT2 she is Alba: Tystra reads "dealing Alba damage" off her basic attack at 2:35 of their kit video. One fan site still lists her under Ignis. The Detective's Gravitas attribute is confirmed by Elementa's own Title Page for the character.

How do Resonance DPS characters scale?

Two characters carry the Resonance DPS Combat Style in the beta: Rex and Bentham. Their damage comes from the effect, so they scale on Amplitude Coefficient and Amplitude Multiplier rather than crit. Rexlent says at 1:20 that these are "their equivalent of crit and crit damage." Our Character Stats guide explains both.

Both passives also add hits to the effect itself.

Bentham's passive, Set Schedule, reads: "Grants 40% Amplitude Multiplier upon using a Tactical Assault, plus an additional 10% when using a skill. Amplitude Multiplier can be increased to a maximum of 40% and lasts for 6s. Glacies Resonance Effects deal 2 additional instances of Glacies Resonance DMG." As printed, the 40% cap equals the first grant, so the extra 10% from skills cannot stack past it. That may be a beta text slip.

Rex's passive, Righteous Spirit, gives 7% ATK for 16 seconds per Signature Move hit, stacking 4 times, and the same "2 additional instances" line for Fulmen. Both are passive Methods on screen. Fan sites file the extra instances under Psyches, which the frames do not support.

Supports feed the same loop. Gucia's ultimate gives the team +10% Amplitude Coefficient for 40 seconds (Tystra, Gucia kit, 5:12). Tystra names Rex and Bentham as the characters who gain most from her.

Mono-attribute or mixed team: which is better?

On CBT2 data, sharing an attribute pays, but you do not need a full mono team. Remember the beta team is four characters, with one on the field: the party wheel in GxG Noir's 1:25 frame shows slots numbered 1 to 4.

The case for stacking an attribute:

• Faster Resonance. GxG Noir says at 1:40 that Resonance "builds up faster the more characters of the same attribute you have." They did not play the beta and work from testers' reports, so treat it as likely, not confirmed.
• Glacies payoffs. Gratia's passive gives all other characters +12% ATK for 40 seconds when she triggers a Glacies Resonance Effect (Tystra, Gratia kit, 4:46). With Bentham's extra Glacies instances, Glacies has the most trigger payoffs in the beta.
• Fulmen shred. Grimm lowers enemy Fulmen RES by up to 15% and gives the team +5% Fulmen DMG for 40 seconds (Tystra, Grimm kit, 4:06 to 5:09). Tystra pairs him with Rex.

The case for mixing: Gucia is Alba, yet her Amplitude buff helps a Glacies or Fulmen carry. A healer or shielder of another attribute also keeps the team alive. Rexlent's minimum team at 3:18 is one DPS, one Break Suppressor and one Combat Support, whatever their attributes.

These cores are our suggestion from the beta kits, not a tested team. See the Combat Styles guide for the role of each slot and the tier list for rankings.

What happened to Resonance Levels and Phase Transition?

First test only. In Monotype (January 2026), players reported a team model: matching attributes across the party unlocked bonuses at Resonance Levels I, III and V, and three characters of different attributes triggered Phase Transition, a reported flat 42.7% Final Damage boost. The exact table was never published, and the 42.7% has no source we can verify.

Neither mechanic appears in the Dichotomy combat notice, in the CBT2 Resonance Effect screen, or in any CBT2 creator video we watched. Treat them as retired unless the launch client brings them back. The later Dichotomy: Retrace test ran under NDA, so nothing from it is public.
