Fulgur
Overview
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| English Name | Fulgur |
| Japanese Name | トニトルス |
| Chinese Name | 雷击 |
| Weapon Type | Fixed-position lightning (repeatedly strikes set locations around the player) |
| Evolution Material | Duplicator |
| Evolves To | Unknown |
| Pickup Priority | B |
Effect and Behavior
Repeatedly drops lightning bolts at fixed locations around the player. Unlike projectile weapons, the strikes land at set positions without random trajectory variance — the attack always hits its designated spots. Level scaling increases the number of strike points, damage per hit, and frequency, expanding the area covered over time.
Fixed-position strikes excel at punishing enemy clusters that linger in specific zones. Duplicator as the evolution material directly increases Amount — more simultaneous lightning bolts means more fixed-point coverage per cycle, scaling the weapon's area denial linearly with Amount investment.
Evolution Conditions
Max Fulgur (Lv 8), carry Duplicator, and open an elite-drop chest after 10:00 to evolve. The post-evolution weapon name is currently unconfirmed.
Strengths
- Fixed-position strikes are never wasted on random trajectories — persistent clusters take guaranteed repeated damage
- Duplicator's Amount increase directly multiplies simultaneous bolt count for linear area expansion
- Not a projectile — terrain and obstacles do not block the strikes
- High-level coverage blankets wide zones automatically with no aiming required
Weaknesses
- Fast-moving single targets like bosses can move between strike zones, reducing hit consistency
- Evolution destination currently unknown
- Low early DPS before level scaling and Duplicator investment kick in
- Fixed zones are less effective against scattered enemies moving in unpredictable directions
Recommended Characters
- Imelda: +10% Growth levels Fulgur faster for earlier area coverage
- Characters with Amount bonuses: each additional bolt directly increases simultaneous zone coverage
- Gennaro: extra projectile stacking generally pairs well with Amount-scaling weapons
Recommended Passives
- Duplicator: mandatory for evolution; Amount increase directly expands simultaneous lightning bolt count (top priority)
- Spinach: +10% Might raises per-bolt damage
- Tome: Duration increase extends each bolt's individual hit window
- Candelabrador: area increase widens each bolt's hit zone
Synergistic Arcanas
- III Tragic Princess: Amount increase further raises simultaneous bolt count
- IX Divine Bloodline: crit compounding on bolt hits raises DPS
Strategy and Tips
- Early (0–10 min): Level Fulgur and secure Duplicator as soon as possible — multiple simultaneous bolts are the weapon's primary strength, so Amount investment pays off early. Stay in enemy-dense zones to ensure fixed strike points overlap with incoming threats.
- Mid (10–20 min): Carry Duplicator and push to Lv8 for evolution. Add Spinach to raise per-bolt damage. Position inside enemy clusters so that strike zones cover high-density areas continuously.
- Late (20+ min): High bolt count at high frequency creates continuous area denial. Stay anchored in enemy flow zones to maximize the number of strikes landing per second.
FAQ
Q: How do I get Fulgur?
A: It appears as a standard weapon offer in runs. Select and level it like any base weapon.
Q: Where exactly do the lightning bolts land?
A: Bolts strike fixed positions relative to the player's current location. As the player moves, the strike zones move with them, maintaining a consistent pattern around the character. Higher levels add more strike points for broader coverage.
Q: What does Duplicator do for Fulgur?
A: Duplicator raises Amount, which increases the number of simultaneous lightning bolts fired per cycle. More bolts means more fixed positions struck at once — the weapon's primary scaling lever for area coverage and total damage.
