Ascension

**Ascension** is a Game System in Princess Connect! Re:Dive which allows players to upgrade the rarity of Playable Characters.

## Overview

The *Ascension* tab is the fourth tab on Enhance Characters screen. This Screen is used when Ascending Characters and increasing their rarity with Memory Shards. Increasing rarity will increase Character's HP, Attack, and Defense stats using percentage scaling. When Characters reach 3★ and 6★ they will also unlock additional Character Episodes, new Character Art, and Sprites. Upgrading to 5★ for a character will upgrade their EX skill. Upgrading to 6★ will upgrade their Union Burst.

## How to Ascend Characters

### 2★ to 5★ Ascension

To Ascend a Character, Mana and a Character's Memory Shards are needed. The amount of Memory Shards required, amount in the Player's possession, and where to find Memory Shards can be found by pressing the *How to Obtain* Button on the left.

The *How to Obtain* button will show methods to gain Memory Shards for *Characters*. Each Character's Memory Shards are found in different Hard Main Quests. The stages or shops displayed will show where to acquire Character Memory Shards. (Players will be moved to the appropriate stage for Memory Shards that drop from a Hard Quests or moved to the Divine Amulet Shop.)

When the required amount of Memory Shards and Mana have been acquired, the *Ascension* Button can be used to Ascend a character.

A confirmation screen will pop up allowing Players to check the stats gained from Ascension and new Character Art (if Ascending to 3★). After pressing confirm, the character will Ascend and gain improved stats and/or new Character Art depending on rarity.

### 6★ Ascension

By default, Character rarity is capped at 5★. However, some Characters can be Ascended to 6★.

6★ Ascension includes:

* Improved stats
* New Character Art
* New Character Sprite
* Improved/Reworked Union Burst

#### Prerequisites

Character rarity must be 5★ and their Unique Equipment must be equipped before 6★ Ascension becomes available.

#### 6★ Quest

Once all required materials are collected, the **6★ Quest** for the specified Character will need to be cleared. You must use that Character in your team comp and win a fight against their own Shadow, which has an Upgraded version of their Union Burst. (6★ Quests do not cost Stamina and can be tried indefinitely until cleared.) Once you complete the 6★ Quest, you will receive rewards and the 6★ Quest Button will change into the Ascension Button.

After tapping the Ascension Button, a confirmation screen will display the stats gained from Ascending, new Character Art, and the improved/reworked Union Burst. After pressing confirm, the character will Ascend and gain improved stats, new Character Art, and an upgraded Union Burst.
