First steps through the gate
StepWhen you load in, a gate stands right in front of you. Walking through it puts you inside the game world and starts teaching you the basics. Every gate you clear opens the path to new worlds and harder bosses, and your rank — starting at E — tracks how far you have come.
- Walk through the gate this drops you into the game world and gets the tutorial moving.
- Fight enemies defeating them earns experience and raises your level.
- Spend stat points each level-up gives you points to put into attack, defense, HP, or whatever fits your style.
- Watch your rank moving up from E toward S unlocks new gates, new worlds, and new bosses.
- Grab daily rewards logging in every day builds up your progression steadily over time.
Classes and skill trees
SummaryAfter you are through the opening gate, you choose a class. Each class comes with its own skill tree, so the abilities available to you depend on which one you pick. Spend skill points in the tree to unlock stronger moves as you level up.
- Class determines your playstyle and which skill tree you work through.
- Skill tree the progression map for your class; open nodes to gain new abilities.
- Stat points separate from skill points; spent on raw stats like attack and HP at each level-up.
Gear worth hunting for
TipsEnemies and bosses drop weapons and runes when you kill them. Legendary swords carry their own ability kits, making them far more valuable than ordinary drops. Runes add extra abilities on top of that, and Blessing Stones push your equipment even further.
- Legendary sword drops from bosses come with built-in ability kits that regular weapons do not have.
- Slot runes into your gear to add abilities that match the way you fight.
- Use Blessing Stones to strengthen equipment beyond what drops and runes alone provide.
The Arise system — building your shadows
StepArise is the feature that lets you extract a soul from a defeated enemy and raise it as a shadow companion. Shadows are not passive bonuses — they fight beside you in battle. Each shadow has its own level and its own skill tree, so raising several and knowing when to use each one pays off.
- Defeat an enemy this makes its soul available to extract.
- Extract the soul this creates a shadow you can then develop.
- Level up the shadow just like your own character, shadows grow stronger with levels.
- Open the shadow skill tree spend points here to unlock the shadow's abilities.
- Build a roster having multiple shadows lets you pick the right one for each fight.
Pushing through rank-ups
CheckHigher ranks mean harder bosses, and at the top sits the Monarch of White Flames raid, unlocked only after clearing all three of Ezril's Trials. That fight runs in phases with arena-wide flames and never lets up. Before you attempt any new rank boss, run through this checklist.
- All stat points have been spent unspent points sitting in your pool are free power you are ignoring.
- Your class skill tree has your core abilities unlocked do not enter a boss fight with gaps in your main skills.
- Your weapons and runes are up to date check whether a recent drop is stronger than what you are wearing.
- Your best shadow is leveled and ready a weak shadow in a hard fight contributes little.
- You have seen the boss's attack patterns at least once each attempt teaches you something even when you lose.

Common questions
FAQCan you actually complete this game playing solo?
Yes — the game is built around solo play, as the name suggests. The late-game content, particularly Ezril's Trials and the Monarch raid, is the hardest the game offers and demands serious preparation.
How do shadows actually help in a fight?
Shadows fight beside you as active allies, not passive buffs. A shadow that has been leveled up and had its skill tree developed contributes real damage. Building a small roster of different shadows means you can bring the most useful one into each encounter.
