What is the DMW?

Zack's Limit Break

The Digital Mind Wave (DMW) is Crisis Core's version of the Limit Break. Depending on the outcome of the DMW, Zack can receive buffs, use special attacks, and even level-up.

Based on a Slot Machine

Any DMW effect that Zack receives is dependent on what the slot machine on the left-hand corner of the screen shows.

The slot machine features three slots that will randomly select portraits that hand out buffs to Zack, depending on the combinations.

Higher levels make it easier to get better rewards

Hitting a perfect 777 combination is pretty low at first. The more Zack levels up, the higher the probability of getting 777.
