How to Get This W-Engine

Pull it from Signal Search using Master Tapes / Encrypted Master Tapes (bought with Polychrome) — S-rank W-Engines get their own banner, usually alongside the matching character's banner.

Trade for it at the Gadget Shop's Box Galaxy section (Sixth Street): costs W-Engine Components + W-Engine Chips + Denny; Chips come from disassembling spare W-Engines.

A handful of A/B-rank W-Engines unlock through Proxy Primer trials or as story/event rewards instead of the gacha — not every W-Engine is pullable.

Official Artwork / Lore

Flight of Fancy

Birds in flight, stars in the sky, blossoms, parasols, and swirling skirts — unspoken feelings, yet emotions laid bare. Only when the moon begins to sigh does the flower bud dare to bloom, releasing a joyous bird. It weaves through the stars, gathering glimmers of starlight, and before dawn breaks, it lands beneath your eaves... shaking off a night full of whispered love. "Lord Phaethon needs only Vivian. Lord Phaethon loves only Vivian. Lord Phaethon sees only Vivian... Chant that to it for 178 days, and you can give it to Lord Phaethon." — Vivian, fortune telling and voodoo are not scientific and offer no real value. Do not attempt them lightly

How to read this W-Engine page

Every W-Engine has 5 Refinement ranks (R1→R5): refinement ONLY strengthens the passive effect — the numbers in the table above run from left (R1, unrefined) to right (R5, max refinement via 4 duplicates or Overclock materials); Base ATK and the Advanced Stat (CRIT Rate/CRIT DMG/ATK%/PEN Ratio/Anomaly Proficiency...) do NOT change with refinement, only with the engine's level. "Best Agents for this W-Engine" prioritizes agents whose real build actually recommends this engine; if that data isn't available yet, the page falls back to agents sharing the same specialty as a rough guide. "Alternatives of the same specialty" lists other W-Engines with the same role — useful when you don't own the engine shown on this page.
