Awakening

Menu icon.

Awakening (覚醒, Kakusei?) is a gameplay mechanic from Star Ocean: Anamnesis that enables the player to upgrade older units and improve their different skills.

Overview[]

The Awakening process levels up a character's battle skills, Rush Mode and talents, and may grant new skills or talents. The results differ by character, who will show on their stat screen and elsewhere the icon next to a number, which indicates level. The maximum is Level 10. The process requires materials—the different Awakening Chips that correspond to each role—as well as great amounts of FOL.

A character's awakening board can be seen by clicking on the character's icon on the "Awakening" menu. It contains four types of orbs: light blue for Battle Skills, orange for Talents, purple for Rush Modes (which usually improves the modifier, but sometimes also changes the effect), and white , which improve more than one type of ability (eg. both a talent and battle skill). Each orb displays a number that indicates the awakening level. Tapping the icon displays a list of what the character can get with the upgrade.

Until rarity 5☆ or 6☆ is reached, characters of certain levels cannot be awakened. In such cases, awakening will be locked until the necessary rarity is reached.

Requirements[]

An ACE character's full awakening requires: 375 Awakening Chip α, 75 Awakening Chip β, and 10 Awakening Chip γ. The cost for non-ACE characters is even higher: 565 Awakening Chip α, 114 Awakening Chip β, 16 Awakening Chip γ. For both, the entire process costs 5,500,000 .
