Wonder Weapon
Wonder Weapon Effects
5★ Sennight Inferno
5★ Ex Machina
5★ Arc Knife
5★ Starry Compass
As of Version 1.3, Wonder’s Sennight Inferno dagger is the ideal Wonder weapon for teams that include Vino and other Saboteur units.Not only does it increase the Phantom Thief leader’s damage, but it also allows him to impair a single enemy’s defense for one turn.
Wonder has three options for future dagger weapons: Ex Machina, Arc Knife, and Starry Compass. Ex Machina works well with mono-Nuclear teams or a team consisting of Queen as the main DPS and Leon as the buff support. When dealing with a single-target enemy or boss, the Arc Knife dagger is a stronger option because your party can stack many Elemental Ailments on the enemy, dealing more substantial damage. The dagger also gives Ailment Accuracy and Defense Down bonuses. If your team is fighting several foes, use Starry Compass instead, as it provides Multi-target defense reduction and boosts Ailment Accuracy for the entire party.
Wonder can obtain the Arc Knife and Starry Compass dagger weapons from the Destiny Land Shop after a few version updates.
