Night on the Milky Way Stats
Base Stats (Level 80): 1164 HP, 582 ATK, 396 DEF
Passive (S1): +9% ATK per enemy (max 5 stacks = 45% ATK). +30% Weakness Break DMG for 1 turn.
Passive (S5): +15% ATK per enemy (max 75% ATK). +50% Weakness Break DMG.
Synergy with Phainon's Territory mode: every Weakness Break triggers damage amplification. Enhanced Skill's 450% ATK + 4x45% Bounce hits multiple targets simultaneously.
Enemy-scaling ATK bonus operates at max efficiency in Pure Fiction's 5-enemy environment. 50% Weakness Break DMG at S5 transforms AoE capabilities into devastating wave-clear.
Acquisition: Stellar Convergence Shop for 600 Undying Starlight.
Make the World Clamour Stats
Base Stats (Level 80): 846 HP, 476 ATK, 396 DEF
Passive (S1): 20 Energy on entry, +32% Ultimate DMG.
Passive (S5): 32 Energy on entry, +64% Ultimate DMG.
Energy advantage: 32 Energy + 25 from Technique = 57 Energy before first action. Phainon requires 12 Coreflame stacks for Ultimate (typically 4-6 actions).
64% Ultimate DMG boost at S5 amplifies 960% ATK Final Hit. However, bonus applies only to Ultimate, not enhanced Skill or basic attacks. Pure Fiction damage comes from multiple sources, limiting passive's overall impact.
Availability: Brilliant Fixation (May 20 - June 11, 2025). 4-star rarity enables easier superimposition.
Tier List Rankings
Night on the Milky Way: S tier for Erudition characters Make the World Clamour: B tier
S tier reflects universal applicability—passive activates automatically based on enemy count. No specific team composition required.
B tier reflects situational value. Energy regeneration benefits expensive Ultimates. Ultimate DMG boost valuable only when Ultimate damage dominates total output.
Phainon's Territory mode grants 8 extra turns with multiple enhanced Skills and basic attacks. Ultimate damage represents smaller percentage of total output versus traditional Ultimate-focused characters.
Pure Fiction Performance: T0.5 Rating
Phainon achieves T0.5 rating—elite performer for Pure Fiction. Territory mode's 8 turns at 60% base SPD enables rapid action cycling, triggering multiple Weakness Breaks.
960% ATK Final Hit benefits from Ultimate DMG amplification, but enhanced Skill's 450% ATK + 4x45% Bounce often contributes equal or greater damage. Each Bounce triggers Weakness Breaks on separate targets, activating Night on the Milky Way's passive multiple times per Skill.
Enemy respawn mechanics ensure Night on the Milky Way operates at max 45% ATK bonus throughout encounters. Consistent uptime versus content with single bosses or limited enemies.
Coordinating Phainon's Ultimate with Surging Grit (+50% DMG at 100 Grit) while benefiting from Night on the Milky Way's Weakness Break DMG boost produces optimal clear times.

Damage Calculations
Night on the Milky Way (S5):
- Base: 582 ATK
- Passive: +15% ATK (87.3) + 45% from enemies (261.9) = 349.2 bonus
- Effective ATK: 931.2 (60% increase)
- +50% Weakness Break DMG applies to all Breaks
Make the World Clamour (S5):
- Base: 476 ATK
- 64% Ultimate DMG: 960% → 1574.4% scaling
- Affects Ultimate only
Full Phainon rotation in Territory mode:
- 8 turns enhanced basic attacks
- Multiple enhanced Skills (450% + 4x45% Bounce)
- 1-2 Ultimates (960% Final Hit)
Night on the Milky Way's 931.2 effective ATK applies to all damage. Make the World Clamour's 476 ATK with selective Ultimate amplification creates performance gap.
Weakness Break bonus adds another layer. 5-10 Breaks per rotation standard in Pure Fiction, multiplying passive value.
Team Synergies
Night on the Milky Way builds: Supports enabling additional Weakness Breaks amplify passive value. Characters applying elemental debuffs or reducing toughness accelerate Break frequency. Sustain with AoE maintains enemy count for 5-stack ATK bonus.
Make the World Clamour builds: Ultimate DMG amplification supports stack multiplicatively with 64% boost. However, these buffs equally benefit Night on the Milky Way, reducing comparative advantage.
Skill Point economy: Phainon's enhanced Skill consumes SP while Territory mode's 8 turns generate none. Teams with SP-positive supports enable frequent enhanced Skill usage. Night on the Milky Way's consistent ATK bonus benefits all damage sources.
Pure Fiction's 5 Energy per enemy defeat creates frequent energy injections, reducing Make the World Clamour's energy advantage.
Investment Costs
Night on the Milky Way:
- 600 Undying Starlight (Stellar Convergence Shop)
- Requires duplicate 5-star exchanges
- Or ~65-80 pulls on limited banner (10,400-12,800 Stellar Jade)
Make the World Clamour:
- 4-star: ~10-20 pulls per copy during rate-up (1,600-3,200 Stellar Jade)
- S5 total: 8,000-16,000 Stellar Jade
- Appears in standard warp pools
Superimposition value:
- Night on the Milky Way S1→S5: +6% ATK, +20% Weakness Break DMG
- Make the World Clamour S1→S5: doubles Energy (20→32) and Ultimate DMG (32%→64%)
Long-term: Night on the Milky Way's S tier ranking provides value for multiple Erudition characters and future releases. Make the World Clamour's B tier limits applicability but easier superimposition suits budget accounts.
F2P Optimization
Make the World Clamour S5 provides accessible power without dedicated banner pulling. Accumulate copies passively while pulling characters.
Budget alternatives include event Light Cones, though none match Make the World Clamour's energy + Ultimate DMG combination for Phainon.
Resource priority: Character pulls > Light Cone pulls. Well-built Phainon with Make the World Clamour S5 outperforms mediocre rosters with premium Light Cones.
Phainon with Make the World Clamour S5 + optimized relics achieves T0.5 performance without 5-star Light Cone investment.
Low-spender strategy: Target Make the World Clamour during rate-up with first-time purchase bonuses. Avoid Light Cone-specific banners unless pursuing multiple rate-ups.
Undying Starlight exchange for Night on the Milky Way creates guaranteed acquisition path. Accumulate 600 Starlight through regular play—long-term F2P approach.
Build Recommendations
E0 Phainon Pure Fiction - Optimal: Night on the Milky Way S1+ via Stellar Convergence Shop. 582 base ATK, 45% enemy-scaling bonus, 50% Weakness Break DMG at S5. S tier performance.
E0 Phainon Pure Fiction - Budget: Make the World Clamour S5. Delivers 80-90% of Night on the Milky Way's performance at lower cost. 32 Energy + 64% Ultimate DMG. Recommended F2P option.
Relic sets:
- Night on the Milky Way: Champion of Streetwise Boxing 4pc (ATK% + Physical DMG). Main stats: ATK% Body, Physical DMG Sphere, SPD/ATK% Boots.
- Make the World Clamour: Messenger Traversing Hackerspace 4pc (SPD + Ultimate frequency). Prioritize Energy Regeneration Rate substats.
Planar Ornaments:
- Night on the Milky Way: Space Sealing Station (ATK% at 120 SPD) or Inert Salsotto (CRIT + Ultimate/Follow-up DMG)

Trace priority: Ultimate > Skill > Talent > Basic Attack. Use +25 Energy Technique every Pure Fiction attempt.
Acquisition Strategy
Light Cone-specific banners provide value only when both rate-ups benefit your account. Character event banners prove inefficient for specific Light Cones due to diluted pools.
Stellar Convergence Shop's 600 Starlight requirement creates guaranteed path. Track accumulation from duplicate 5-stars. Prioritize meta character duplicates over Light Cone exchanges unless enabling significant breakthroughs.
Make the World Clamour appeared in Brilliant Fixation (May 20 - June 11, 2025). Monitor announcements for future rate-ups.
BitTopup provides competitive Stellar Jade acquisition with secure top-up services, fast delivery, multiple payment options, and excellent customer service.
Banner planning: Calculate total Stellar Jade requirements. Limited character + Make the World Clamour S5 = ~12,800 + 8,000-16,000 Stellar Jade. Maintain reserves for unexpected rate-ups.
80-pull guarantee for 5-star Light Cones demands substantial investment. Accumulating Starlight through regular play often more efficient than direct Light Cone banner pulling.
