Basic Terms for Beginners

For easier searching, it is also suggested to use CTRL+F to search for the term you want to get the definition of.

Breakthrough Breakthrough Levels increase a character or weapon's level cap. All characters/weapons can't just level up to the maximum level cap of 90 immediately; a player will need to have them hit level 20 first, then raise their Breakthrough Level to 1 so their level cap will rise to 40. Breakthrough Level 2 raises the level cap to 60, Breakthrough Level 3 raises it to 70, Breakthrough Level 4 raises it to 80, and Breakthrough Level 5 raises it to 90. Each Breakthrough Level requires a specific set of upgrade items, which can be obtained through Resource Stages and Merging.
Related: Resource Stage Guide, Merging Guide
Character A playable character that the player can get either by playing the story or pulling from Black Beacon's Retrieval Pools (gacha banners). Each character has a special set of combat actions, which include Basic and Heavy Attacks and Skills.
Clarity The unit for energy in Black Beacon. Clarity is consumed whenever a Main Quest or Resource mission is played. Clarity can also be converted into Keys of Karma, which are used to open Chests of Fate in Tome of Fate mode. Clarity replenishes itself over time, though players can also get Clarity by using Spherical Fruits.
Class Class is the game's way of classifying the kind of roles a Character could have during battle. For example, the Thunder character Xin is classified as a DPS because of her high-output damage. Players are recommended to use Class labels as guidelines rather than strict rules, as many characters can be effective in multiple roles depending on team composition and playstyle.
Combo Burst Whenever a character deals damage to an enemy, their Combo Burst meter on the top right-hand corner of the screen is filled up. When it's full, Combo Burst mode can be activated, allowing characters to use their skills without having to charge Vigor. Take note that there might be a small cooldown for certain skills (usually a character's Second Skill).
Related: Combo Burst Explained
Dodge One of a character's potential combat actions. When the Dodge button is tapped, a character can be sent hurtling toward whichever direction the player chooses. Dodging is not only a way to avoid damage in battle but is also a way to close the distance between your character and their enemies.
Form A Form is a duplicate of a character that you already have in your possession, and can be obtained either by pulling from a Retrieval Pool or buying a Form from the Store. Forms are used to raise a character's Potential, which gives certain boosts to their abilities.

The former is used to pull from retrieval pools featuring limited 5-star characters, while the latter is used to pull from retrieval pools featuring non-limited 5-star characters (such as the Mortal Wanderings and Divine Forge banners). Both Keys can be bought with Rune Shards.
Level There are a few types of Levels in Black Beacon. Character Level, Weapon Level, Enemy Level, and Seer Level. Character Level is raised with EXP and divided by Breakthrough Levels that, when the requirements are fulfilled, allow a character to level up further until they reach the max level cap at 90.
