Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Qs)
❓Is it free-to-play (F2P) friendly?
Yes. It’s accessible via the standard gacha and crafting system, and it’s powerful enough to be a long-term option for F2P players who lack S-rank W-Engines for their Attack agents.
❓How do you obtain Starlight Engine?
It can be acquired from the Star-Studded Cast banner, character banners, or crafted via W-Engine crafting using Attack-type chips and upgrade materials at Box Galaxy.
❓How does leveling it up affect the passive?
Each passive level increases the ATK bonus, from 12% to 19.2%. This scaling makes it worthwhile to invest in, especially if your agent frequently triggers its conditions.
❓What makes its passive unique?
Starlight Engine is one of the few W-Engines that rewards defensive/reactive play via Dodge Counter and Quick Assist triggers, making it stand out from raw stat-boosting engines.
