Signal Search: W-Engine Channel

W-Engine Channel

The W-Engine Channel is a limited-time channel where players have a higher rate of obtaining specific A-Rank or Limited S-Rank Signals. The Signals with a higher Reception Rate are W-Engines. The limited S-Rank Signals are only available on a specific W-Engine Channel, so if players miss the limited-time period, they may try getting the limited S-Rank Signal again on its next Channel appearance.

Please Note: You cannot obtain any S-Rank Agents on the W-Engine Channel.

You can exchange 1 Encrypted Master Tape to conduct a Single Signal Search, or exchange 10 Encrypted Master Tapes for 10 Signal Searches.

W-Engine Channel Pity and Gacha Rates

The W-Engine Channel increases the rate of the featured A-Rank and S-Rank W-Engines. Whenever you receive an A-Rank or S-Rank W-Engine, there is a 75% chance of recruiting the featured W-Engine on the Channel. If the player fails to receive the featured W-Engine, the following will occur:

  • If the player received a Non-Featured Signal, it will be one of the Signals from the Stable Channel.
  • Their next A-Rank or S-Rank W-Engine is guaranteed to be one of the featured on the W-Engine Channel.

The Signal Searches on the Exclusive Channel and W-Engine Channel are accumulated separately from each other. This means that you cannot use your Signal Searches from the Exclusive Channel to progress towards a Signal Guarantee on the W-Engine Channel, and vice versa. Based on the cumulative Signal Searches done on the W-Engine Channel, the game will provide the following bonuses listed below:

Number of Cumulative Searches Search Bonus
10 A-Rank or higher Signal guaranteed!
80 S-Rank Signal guaranteed!

Please Note: the W-Engine Channel will provide a guaranteed S-Rank Signal at 80 Searches. It is highly advised that players save up the appropriate amount of Encrypted Master Tapes. The maximum amount that players should save is 160 Encrypted Master Tapes for the W-Engine Channel's limited-time S-Rank Signal.

If you receive an S-Rank Signal at any time, either before or at the guaranteed amount, your cumulative Searches for that specific Channel will reset back to 0. Your cumulative Searches and S-Rank Guarantee (if applicable) will carry over to the next respective Limited-Time Channel.
