AFTER THE BOSS FIGHT

Boss rewards & special effects

11 ITEMS · BOND FUSION

A Boss reward can change your build without teaching you a new move. Keep equipment, Rift Bonds and the Boss’s own attacks separate when planning your next upgrade.

Standard map Boss

Drops a held item alongside other loot. Equip it for its run effect; it does not grant a new move or a Bond.

Compare all 11 held items →

Rift legendary

Drops a held item and grants one Bond on victory. Use the Bond after returning to the map to combine moves you already know.

See how fusion works →

ONE SLOT, MORE MOVES

Bonds from Rift victories

UP TO 4 MOVES / GROUP

Win the Rift fight
Defeat the legendary inside its Rift arena. Each victory adds one Bond. An ordinary map Boss does not grant one.
Return to the main map
The fusion choice opens after you leave the arena. If another choice screen is open, it waits until that screen closes.
Pair two learned moves
Without an unfinished group, choose two moves currently in separate slots. They become one slot and both run while that slot is active.
Grow the unfinished group
If a group already contains two or three moves, the next Bond adds one loose move to it. Four is the group limit. Once a group is full, another Bond can start a new pair if two loose moves remain.

Ember

Fire Spin

One active slotTwo learned moves, independent cooldowns

For example, learn Ember and Fire Spin on a compatible partner, then spend a Bond to group them. This frees one ordinary slot. Their levels and evolution state stay intact; a Bond does not turn either move into its evolution.

Unused Bonds, full groups and Choice Band

A Bond combines learned moves. It does not teach a Boss attack, add a fifth ordinary move slot or automatically evolve either move.
Fusion keeps the existing move objects, including their levels and evolution state. Their attacks use their own cooldowns; they do not share one new cooldown.
With only one loose move and no unfinished group, the Bond is saved until you learn another eligible move. Returning without a victory does not award a Bond.
Choice Band still blocks ordinary slot switching. Fusion keeps the current active slot if that slot survives the merge; otherwise it selects the fused group.

ENEMY ATTACKS · NOT LEARNABLE

Recognize the Boss’s special attacks

7 SHARED PATTERNS

Each Boss uses four patterns: an area slam, either a charge or a leap, and two ranged patterns. The seven families below are shared across Bosses; they are not seven extra cards or attacks awarded after a win. Bosses enrage below half HP, which can shorten warnings or add projectiles.

Compare all seven patterns and their enraged variants

ENEMY ONLY

Area slam

Gold evolution cards still require a level-5 move and its run stat card. Temporary altar powers are another map reward, separate from Boss loot; check world events and altars →

Make every level count

Why am I offered these three cards?

The game draws distinct cards from a weighted candidate pool. New move cards need a free slot and respect the partner’s move pool and bans. At most two buff moves can be learned. Owned moves below level 5 can offer upgrades. Stat cards usually stop appearing at their pick limit; a missing evolution requirement is explicitly added to the pool.

Weights are relative, not fixed probabilities. New moves have weight 10, move upgrades 8, normal stat cards 4 with room or 7 when slots are full. A missing evolution stat card has weight 14; ready evolutions have weight 40, with the first one guaranteed.

Before those offers are drawn, the game samples up to six new moves. A move that matches your partner’s stronger attack side has sampling weight 2 instead of 1; buff moves also get weight 2. This favors suitable attacks but does not double their final card probability.

What happens when my four move slots are full?

New move cards stop appearing until a slot opens. A bond earned from defeating a rift legendary can fuse moves into one slot, making room for another move. A bonded slot can contain up to four moves.

Read the bond guide →

How do rerolls and permanent upgrades help?

Each run has one free reroll. Card reroll adds up to five more; Ban can exclude up to three new moves per partner. Repertoire starts you with one extra eligible attack move. These are purchased between runs and are separate from the stat cards above.

Which card should I pick first?

Choose one or two evolution goals before spreading levels across your whole loadout. Take a required stat card when it appears; it can support multiple recipes. Save a reroll for a choice that does not help your build or survival.
