Hello, Captains!

Welcome to Version 5.9 Patch Overview by Kopenych & A.E.N.! 

The glorious performance of the mightest Magician is about to start! Take your seat, let’s shed the light to Flame-Chasers’ end and upcoming version content!

Warning: All information is based on BETA 5.9.

New Battlesuit - Helical Contraption

Rank: S

Valkyrie type: QUA

Damage type: Fire

Role: Damage Dealer

Features

◆ A Gear for Every Foe

Vill-V approach to things is a bit unique - she can’t attack herself… but she has all her inventions at her disposal! You can use her playstyle to enter Weapon mode and use Revolving Gatling: Applause and Heavy Cannon: Exclamation to attack the enemies.

◆ Overturning Assemblage

Vill-V uses Burst mode in her ultimate that continuously consumes her SP to unleash Interlude Salute in the end of her spectacular performance! On top of that, other weapons can also enter Approaching state, increasing her damage.

◆ Divining the Stars

Each talented performer should have some tricks up their sleeves,don’t you think so? Vill-V’s list includes Time Fracture, aerial combat, enhanced evasion skills and negation of enemy attacks with her special shield that can deal Fire DMG as well.

How to get Helical Contraption

◆ Expansion Supply

Helical Contraption can be obtained from Expansion Supply. In 5.9, her expansion supply gives bonus drops: 

◆ Signature stigma option box at 60 / 150 / 190th pull

◆ Signature weapon-stigma option box at 110th pull

Equipment

That’s a rare chance - in this version you can combine two useful things together and obtain Vill-V’s gear while trying to pull her! Her signature gears, Tower of the Past cannon and Collodi stigma set, add more additional features, such as increased Fire DMG and special Locked state to make enemies more vulnerable to Vill-V’s attacks.
