GLOSSARY / Types and Resistances

Absolute Resonance

Types and Resistances

At a Glance

A chain of at least 3 consecutive skills with the same Sin affinity.

GUIDEHow It Works

Selecting at least 3 matching skills consecutively creates Absolute Resonance. It is a form of Resonance and also satisfies Resonance-count requirements.

Participating skills receive an Offense Level bonus based on the consecutive chain's length. This does not stack additively with ordinary Resonance; each skill receives whichever bonus is higher.

When an effect checks Absolute Resonance, count the consecutive chain, not all matching skills in the turn.

NOTESCommon Misunderstandings

Do not confuse the total number of matching skills with the number in a consecutive chain.

EXAMPLEWorked Example

A consecutive Absolute Resonance chain

Select Wrath, Wrath, Wrath consecutively
Wrath Absolute Resonance is 3
Wrath, Gloom, Wrath gives 2 Wrath Resonance, not Absolute Resonance

In longer mixed chains, each skill individually receives the higher of its ordinary and Absolute Resonance bonuses.
