What appears to be the sea is not the sea. What appears to be life is not life. If that which is false is indistinguishable from the real, then where does the boundary between truth and falsehood lie?

Frequently asked questions
5 answers, always open
- What does the Illusion of Life 4-piece bonus do?
- It gives Amplitude Coefficient +15% once all four pieces are worn. Increases the holder's Amplitude Coefficient by 15%. When the character's Amplitude Coefficient exceeds 50%, each Skill use also increases their ATK by 8% for 8s, stacking up to 2 times. The second part only switches on above 50% Amplitude Coefficient, so build that stat first. There is no 2-piece bonus.
- Which four pieces make up the Illusion of Life set?
- Swirling Thoughts (Head), Journey of the Argent Strand (Neck), Time Cycle (Secondary Weapon) and Conscious Echoes (Accessory). Each slot takes exactly one, and every piece belongs to this set only.
- What does a full Illusion of Life set add at max rarity?
- All four orange pieces at Lv. 80 add DEF 528, HP 3,528, DMG Bonus 15%, ATK % 18%, HP % 10%, Amplitude Multiplier 68.8%, Ultimate Charge Efficiency 17.5%, ATK 352 and Amplitude Coefficient 30%, before the set bonus. A gray set at the same level gives DEF 131, HP 881, DMG Bonus 3.8%, ATK % 4.5%, HP % 2.5%, Amplitude Multiplier 17.2%, Ultimate Charge Efficiency 4.4%, ATK 88 and Amplitude Coefficient 7.6%.
- Which characters should wear Illusion of Life?
- Our build pages pick it for Gucia (best), Bentham (alternative) and Rex (alternative).
- Do other sets have pieces with the same stats as Illusion of Life?
- Yes, piece for piece: To Serve and Protect (4 of 4), Cogs of the City (1 of 4), Elitism (1 of 4), Hey, Jack (1 of 4), The Hunter and the Hunted (1 of 4) and Embers and Flame (1 of 4). A matching piece has the same lines at the same values, so between those sets only the 4-piece bonus differs.
