Here's a list Skill Slots and their stats or effects per Lvl. Skill Slots are extra stats that can be unlocked once the requirements are met, upgrade them to get added stats, buffs, debuffs, and other useful effects for your characters.
Skill Slots (I guess), are mainly used by game devs to buff up or re-balance characters as the game goes, so even a 5* or 4* character that is in a disadvantage could become more useful with Skill Slots.
Materials: Unlocking Skill Slots
- First, you need to unlock the required Battle Skills from your character's Attribute Matrix, then upgrade them to max level if needed.- Collect required materials (rarity varies per item).
Shards and Crystals
- Collect from daily or limited events. Farm them too from story mode stages, refer here for a list of stages and their guaranteed drops: Shards, Crystals and Holy Farming LocationsCommon Medallions
