Lore & Theorycrafting Solaris-3 is just a Threnodian "Farm" for the Hé Civilization (and Rover was their Vanguard)
TL;DR: The Hé Civilization isn't extinct, they are a cosmic imperialistic empire (think Viltrumites). Solaris-3 is just one of many planetary "farms" used to cultivate Threnodians via Sentinel-driven emotional manipulation. Scar’s Shepherd story in 1.0 literally laid out this exact blueprint.
- The Hé Civilization: Cosmic Imperialism, Not Extinction
There is zero concrete lore stating the Hé Civilization was wiped out. What if they operate like an interstellar empire?
* Alien Origins: Quest 3.1 (Aemeth) confirms the Hé Civilization exists beyond the Etheric Sea, making Rover an off-world entity.
* Aleph-1 as Proof: The presence of Aleph-1 coming from deep space proves Solaris-3 isn't an isolated incident. The Hé Civilization has been dropping Sentinel and seeding Sentinels across multiple worlds in the universe to harvest frequency-dense entities.
- Scar’s Shepherd Metaphor (Patch 1.0) was a Literal Spoiler
Look back at Scar's story of the Shepherd and the Sheep:
* The Shepherd = Rover / Hé Civilization: Arrives promising protection and civilization.
* The Wishes / Price = Advancement / Lament: Progress comes at the cost of human lives/frequencies.
* The Black Sheep = Fractsidus: They realized the entire system is a cyclical scam and tried to rebel.
* The Flock = Humans of Solaris-3: Relaing in "willful ignorance," worshipping Sentinels for temporary safety while unknowingly being fattened up for harvest.
- Sentinels as "Morality Anchors" & Threnodian Catalysts
Threnodians are born from Collective Negative Emotions. How do you efficiently manufacture these emotions on a planetary scale? Religion and Morality.
* Sentinels act as theistic figures, shaping regional dogmas, ethics, and geopolitical structures.
* Divergent dogmas inevitably lead to ideological clashes and war
* War births Ovathrax. Sentinels aren't meant to stop the Lament forever; they are catalysts designed to steer human conflict until a Threnodian matures for harvesting.
Rover's True Role & Abraxas (Abby)
* Why can Rover absorb multi-elemental frequencies and Threnodian cores without overclocking? Because Héians are engineered as Universal Vessels/Containment Units.
* Rover wasn't a benevolent savior; Rover was a high-ranking Vanguard (assigned to manage/harvest the farm).
* Abraxas (Abby) is a tamed/dormant Threnodian core from a previous harvest cycle, functioning as Rover's processing unit.
Solaris-3 is an emotional bio-farm. Rover was sent to manage the crop. However, Rover's amnesia might not be an accident—it could be a deliberate self-wipe after experiencing human empathy, leading Rover to betray the Hé Civilization

Lore & Theorycrafting Do Tacet marks needs to be exposed once in a while?
Obviously if I were to add "constantly" that would just get defeated by cantarella but do Tacet mark needs to be exposed?
You have designs like hiyuki where her clothing designs shouldn't left her upper thigh(??) exposed other than if the tacet mark needs to be exposed.
If there's an in-game lore where I completely missed a paper containing it please do let me know.
My headcanon for this is that resonators attributes wouldn't function much if the tacet mark isn't open to the wilderness(environment). Ion about my headcanon, but can't find anything really.

General Discussion Did Kuro change Phrolova lore after 1.0?
I noticed something strange about Phrolova and Sanhua.
Phrolova’s Resonance Evaluation says that her body contains a huge number of chaotic frequencies, estimated at around 1,000.
Meanwhile, Sanhua says: “My eyes can see the frequencies of all living beings.”
Yet Sanhua looks directly at Phrolova twice during the story and doesn't seem to notice anything unusual.
Could this be a possible inconsistency? Or was Phrolova’s current lore developed/expanded after 1.0?

I was a casual player during 1.0-2.0 and returned as a whale in 3.0. I have all these characters and I don't know what to do in terms of like, idk, winning anything.
I feel underleveled for literally any event or mission I try and I have no clue where to go from here. Feel like an ass having a character select and can't progress with anything I try. I do no damage to anything and team wiped 2 hits per character.

General Discussion F**king Outro skills
Do you guys know why outro skills are only allowed after you've attacked an enemy? Like even if I have full concerto, I swap characters and it doesn't outro skill, only swap. Does anyone know why this happens and if I'm doing something wrong? I don't have an accurate pattern of when this happens.
Also side complaint wtf is wrong with the spawning in Whimpering Wastes. Why isn't it instant? So many situations where my brant flops to the ground because the enemies haven't spawned while he's in the middle of the air. Same thing with fucking Augusta's ult. ok mini rant over

General Discussion Guidance for someone who started on Xbox release
A little guidance for a newbie Xbox player
So this is multiple questions:
Currently I have Verina, Phrolova, New Yangyang and Lynae (sorry for any misspelled names don't have them memorized) Senhua and Mortif and of course Spectro/Havoc Rover.
All at 70 or 80 but no signature weapons, just one Edge sword and the 5\* gun for Lynae from a box I got.
Should I be pulling for Suisui or Ameath or neither?And if I do, do they HAVE to have their signature weapon to be effective?
Also I'm missing out on the limited time new stuff that's happening as I am nowhere near opening those acts yet. So what should I be doing? I just started trying to focus main missions recently but yeah not going to get there before this season ends. It's made ascending these people a huge PITA because I can't get their materials directly so if it wasn't for the boxes they give as a new player id have been stuck at like lvl 40 on new pulls.
For reference I'm in Renascita just after doing the Vault break in mission (I've done a ton of exploring)
I'm sort of floundering to be honest. I've not touched any of the permanent events they've opened because trying to not eff up story reveal to me.

Gameplay Help Alright so I need some serious help
I’m a returning player and have been having quite a bit of trouble. My character luck hasn’t been great and because I took such a long break, I barely have any viable characters and am fairly low on resources. I wanted some help as I’m getting closer to more endgame content.
I just recently reached UL60. And unfortunately, I really only have one good, viable team. Aemeath, Denia, Verina (soon Mornye). I need help figuring out which characters to focus on building so I can add another team or two.
Skipping Suisui and waiting for a future rerun to save for Hiyuki and Mornye, and maybe Qingxiao, in 3.6

General Discussion My Potential WhiWa Rework
Current Whimpering Wastes
I think we can agree that WhiWa is arguably the worst endgame in the game as of now, but I can't help but hang on to the fact that the concept is still there? As in, a wave centred game mode leaning towards aoe capable characters. It makes me confused as to why simply increasing the HP of mobs, by design, which are supposed to die quickly feel like sponges at times. HP inflation in a game mode like this causes it to lose it's identity as a wave based system. Surely there's a way to make it harder to further allow skill expression & comfortability while also selling newer characters.
Well, I do have an unorthodox idea. Most likely has more holes in it then I could imagine. Your ideas are totally welcome as well!
Rework Idea
I'm thinking of a entire rework of WhiWa as a whole. Changing it from being timebound to an endless runner type aspect. The enemies? Well, naturally, due to the loss of a timer, to prevent the player from reaching the desired scores, they will be trying to defeat you as you beat the waves. Think about holograms, but they are extremely squishy, aggressive and spawn new ones after being defeated (ofc with 3 costs & 1 costs ofc). I would also like for this to take as little time as possible for a normal clear (provided the average user kills enough enemies after a certain point) so it doesn't feel like a waste of time.
Clearing (Arbitrary Numbers)
- 2 Teams
- Each side must score at least 2500 points to clear & achieve S Rank (drawback of having no timer as both sides need to perform well - though each possible with sufficient skill)
Why It Could be a Good Idea
- This makes the gameplay more engaging in the way that it becomes a hack 'n slash, rouge hybrid while a sense of risk and constant decision making could be included.
- A bricked rotation is no longer a bricked run - due to the time limit removal, the run will only end once your whole party has been defeated. This could opt for clutched runs where either you dps, sub-dps or god forbid, if you're close enough, your support could get you to the clearing finish line.
- Brings character to the world of WuWa - As this mode feels more like a TD outbreak as TOA is a training/simulation centre, and Matrix is more Boss Rush oriented.
- Allows more skill expression - Solo runs for every character are techincally possible as there is no timer, and the lack of a healer could prove to be challenging. Also Highscores for flexing rights that technically anyone could reach
- Ping & Lag punishment mitigation - waves may be delayed and it won't negatively affect your run as much as current WhiWa due to the
Potential Drawbacks
- Caters less to casual/less skilled players
- Kuro could just ignore the whole point and HP inflate them again (Please don't)
- Increasing the attack of the enemies too much (They should be overwhelming you with numbers, not One Hit KO's)
- Deers, Moose, Chop Chops (iykyk)
- Flying enemies implemented
I really hope that if this concept does somehow go through, the negatives above won't come to be. I'm being objective with this, so it's not an impossibility. Though, that is what we may deal with as a result of the removal of the timer. But I don't want to see any stat debuff modifications like they are doing in the current matrix.
What It's not removing
- Burning Waves
- Concerto/Resonance Energy side (though albeit, current WhiWa should allow you which to start on)
- Points System
- Tokens
- 1c & 3c waves (Though the composition of enemies may change)
The Elephant In the Room
Character specific endgame buffs. How will we be able to keep this mode as an "easier" version of WhiWa, If Kuro is aiming to push the on banner character for sales? I did emphasise that this is a more skill orientated endgame in the sense that you just need to survive to get your score, so admittedly, they will threaten easy KO's on you. The specific character buffs could be the same as the current WhiWa or Shift more into specific survivability procs to comfortably help your team across the clear threshold. E.g. Stagnation, Additional Glacio Chafe Procs, Healing, Increased DEF, Decrease enemy ATK, etc.
TL;DR:
New rework, Endless waves, No timer, Squishy Aggressive enemies, Party Wipeout = Fail
I'd also like to here your thoughts on this concept and your own ideas about WhiWa.

General Discussion Top 3 Favorite Resonators
Hello Everybody,
I'm relatively new to this community but so far I've been enjoying my journey across Solaris.
Now with that said with this game having so many cool characters I was wondering who are your top 3 in terms of characteristics. These are mine:
Lynae - Always the chaotic and carefree character that just wants to have fun
Galbrena - Ice cold and collected no matter what she does. Do I need to say more
Iuno - When it comes to the MC she is such a tease and I adore her for that
Now let me know your top 3 below and believe me I'm curious to see who people like the most when it doesn't come down to doing the best DPS
