Thank you for playing Jigokuraku: BATTLE IN HELL'S PARADISE.
For everyone starting their ParaBat journey on Steam, here's a guide to Bond Rank, an essential feature for strengthening your Allies!
◇What Is Bond Rank?
Bond Rank is a feature that increases an Ally's stats through Bond Missions unique to each character.
■Strengthen Every Version of the Same Character!
When a character's Bond Rank increases, the Attack and Max HP of every Ally with that character's name increase.
For example, if Gabimaru's Bond Rank increases, the stats of every recruited Gabimaru Ally, including [Gabimaru (Ninpo: Ascetic Blaze)], [Gabimaru (Ninpo: Whirling Ascetic Blaze)] and [Gabimaru (Ninpo: Flower Shadow)], will increase!
■Earn Rewards by Ranking Up!
Reach certain Bond Ranks to earn rewards such as exclusive Bond Memoirs, Memories, Character Voices and Titles!
■Power Up Even More with Synergy Effects!
When the Bond Ranks of specific character combinations reach a certain level, a Synergy Effect is activated.
This further increases the stats of all applicable characters.
Raising the Bond Rank of your main party members, as well as the characters who share Synergy Effects with them, is one of the fastest ways to increase your Total Power!
◇How Do You Increase Bond Rank?
There are two main ways to increase Bond Rank: completing Bond Missions and using Gifts.
■Complete Bond Missions
A character's Bond Rank increases each time you complete one of the following objectives.
- Recruit that character's Allies.
- Limit Break that character's Allies.
- Awaken that character's Allies.
- Send that character's Allies on Expeditions.
Each Mission has multiple milestones based on the number of times it's completed, so be sure to prioritize the Missions for the characters in your main party!
■Use Gifts
Giving a character a Gift increases their Bond Rank by 1.
You can obtain Gifts through the following methods.
- Shop
- Exchange
- Birthday Promotions
Birthday Promotions are held on each character's birthday, allowing you to receive a Gift exclusively for that character.
Gifts can only be claimed until 23:59 on the character's birthday, so don't forget to log in and claim them!
Be sure to keep an eye on the birthdays of the characters in your main party!
You can also check upcoming character birthdays in the monthly Roadmap, so be sure to check it out too!
◇Notes
- There are two types of Gifts: Gifts that can be used on any character, and Gifts (Character Name) that can only be used on the specified character.
(Example: Gift (Gabimaru) can only be used on Gabimaru.)
- Please check the in-game Notice for full details on each character's Birthday Promotion.
