Game System: Character Progression

Raidou Has New Skills: Summoner Skills

Raidou can learn new Summoner Skills from weapons. There are 2 types of skills, Combat Skills, which increase your combat ability during battle, and Sword Skills, which take effect automatically when equipped. These skills provide you with a variety of abilities, such as a powerful attack, increasing Raidou's resilience, and more. Be sure to equip the appropriate skills depending on depending on your opponents, as you can change your Combat Skills set during battle. The number of Summoner Skills you can gain increases based on the weapon types you create through Sword Alchemy. Be sure to use Sword Alchemy actively once you have enough materials.

Customize the Special Skills of Allied Demons

Allied demons can learn two Special Skills: Combat Skills that are effective during battle, and Passive Skills that take effect automatically when equipped. Allied demons can gain these skills through grinding, as well as through demon fusions. Skill books allow you to teach specific skills to your demons. Skills are learned from skill books in stages. Demons can master these skills by using the same skill book multiple times, and demons can also inherit these skills through demon fusions.

Loyalty of Allied Demons

Loyalty is a term used to indicate a given demon's trust in you. An ally demon's loyalty increases as they participate in battle, defeat enemies, and accompany you on the field. Once a demon's Loyalty has reached its maximum, the demon will learn a Passive Skill, and gain materials needed for Sword Alchemy and useful items. The cumulative total amount of Loyalty you've earned across all your demon allies will also determine your rank as a Devil Summoner. As this total reaches certain thresholds, you will earn new titles and increase the number of demons you can use. The titles you earn can be freely changed as you progress.
