How to Obtain Shannon

Unknown Scroll

Social Summon

Secret Dungeon

Temple of Wishes

Magic Shop

You can obtain Shannon (Wind Pixie) through several accessible routes, making her a popular early- and mid-game support monster:

• Challenge Quest Rewards (Mission V): You’ll receive a free copy of Shannon as a reward for completing specific Challenge Quests.
• Unknown Scrolls & Social Summons: She can be summoned via these scrolls, giving you a chance to acquire her randomly.
• Magic Shop: Shannon frequently appears in the in-game Magic Shop as a purchasable monster.
• Secret Dungeon: Her own Secret Dungeon activates occasionally (typically on Thursdays), where you can gather five pieces during the one-hour window to summon her.

These combined acquisition methods—free quest reward, multiple summoning routes, shop purchase, and Secret Dungeon pieces—make Shannon relatively easy to obtain, especially compared to many other useful 2-star units.

Awakening Essence

Essence of Wind (Low)

Essence of Magic (Low)

To awaken Shannon (Wind Pixie) from her base ★2 form to awakened ★3, you’ll need the following awakening essences:

• 20× Low Wind Essences
• 15× Low Magic Essences

These materials can be obtained by farming the Hall of Wind (open on Thursdays) and the always-available Hall of Magic in Cairos Dungeon. You can also fuse lower-tier essences into higher-tier ones via the Fuse Center if needed.

SKILL UPS

Total Skill-ups

• Awakened Shannon (★3): Needs 13 total skill-ups across her two skills.
• Second Awakened Shannon (★3 + 2A): After her second awakening, she requires an additional 5 more skill-ups to max her new kit.

After second awakening, Shannon needs 5 more skill-ups, bringing her skill levels of all three skills to full potency in her 2A form.

How to Skill Up Shannon

• Feed Shannon fodder monsters from the Pixie family, regardless of element (e.g., Fire Pixie, Dark Pixie), to gain skill-ups while power‑upping or evolving.
• For second awakening, use second‑awakened Pixie fodder, or use Devilmons — though not cost-effective for a 2★ unit.

Strategy

Shannon excels as a support unit in early to mid-game content, particularly in dungeons like Giant’s Keep B10 and Trial of Ascension. Her strategy revolves around applying AoE debuffs to control enemy speed while buffing allies with increased defense and attack power. Opening with “Pep Talk” boosts your team’s survivability and damage, while “Decelerate” helps control waves by slowing enemies. She pairs well with damage-dealing allies who benefit from her attack buff and extra turns generated by speed manipulation. Shannon is especially effective when built with high Speed, Accuracy, and some HP to ensure she moves first and reliably lands her debuffs.

Strength and Weakness

Strengths:

• Excellent support skills with AoE buffs and debuffs
• Easily obtainable and usable even in mid-game
• Key unit for early Giants B10 and ToA teams
• Useful for crowd control and team buffing
• Low rune requirements to be effective

Weaknesses:

• Low base stats make her fragile without good runes
• Falls off in late-game PvP and high-end PvE
• Easily replaced by stronger support monsters later on
• Requires skill-ups and awakening to reach full potential

Synergy

Shannon works best when paired with monsters that benefit from increased Attack and Defense buffs or rely on enemy debuffs to maximize damage. She synergizes well with:

• Lushen (Wind Joker): Shannon’s Attack buff boosts Lushen’s AoE damage, making him even deadlier in waves.
• Belladeon (Light Inugami): Together, they provide strong support through heals, debuffs, and buffs—ideal for dungeon runs.
• Bernard (Wind Griffon): Bernard increases team Speed and turn advantage, while Shannon slows enemies and buffs the team, creating a solid speed control combo.
• Veromos (Dark Ifrit): Shannon slows and controls enemy waves, while Veromos cleanses debuffs and deals consistent AoE damage.
• Spectra (Fire Griffon): Combines well for crowd control and speed manipulation in Trial of Ascension.

This synergy setup makes Shannon an excellent backbone for PvE progression teams.
