What Combat Type is Argenti?

Argenti is a 5-star Physical character on the Path of Erudition, from The Knights of Beauty, released in version 1.5.

What stat does Argenti scale on?

Argenti's abilities multiply ATK. That is read from the scaling rows on the Skill and Ultimate, not from the ability description, so it reflects what the game actually multiplies rather than what the text mentions.

What is the best Light Cone for Argenti?

Flickering Stars is the closest fit on the data: it is a 5-star Erudition Light Cone with 635 base ATK at level 80, and its passive acts on ATK. A Dream Scented in Wheat is the best 4-star alternative.

Which relic set should Argenti use?

Champion of Streetwise Boxing. Its 2-piece bonus is: Increases Physical DMG by 10%. Its 4-piece bonus is: After the wearer attacks or is hit, their ATK increases by 5% for the rest of the battle. This effect can stack up to 5 time(s).

Which Planar Ornament should Argenti use?

City of Converging Stars. Its 2-piece bonus is: When the wearer uses Follow-Up ATK, increases ATK by 24% for 2 turn(s). When an enemy target gets defeated, increases CRIT DMG for all allies by 12% in the current battle. This effect cannot stack. Planar Ornaments have no 4-piece bonus; the sphere and the rope are the whole set.

How much does it cost to max Argenti's traces?

Taking one ability from level 1 to 10 costs 652,500 Credits and 2× Tracks of Destiny among other materials. The Materials tab lists every item per level.

What does Argenti E1 do?

A Lacuna in Kingdom of Aesthetics: Each stack of Apotheosis additionally increases CRIT DMG by 4%.
