Claudia advancements

Tower of Fantasy handles simulacrum duplicates in a similar way to Genshin Impact, by allowing you to trade those duplicates in to unlock significant advancements for your Tower of Fantasy weapons. Some advancements may bestow a straightforward buff, while others may modify how an ability functions. Either way, advancements are guaranteed to bring significant benefits.

  • 1 star: After hitting a target with a skill or discharge skill, grant one stack of the following buff: Increase damage dealt by 8% for 25 seconds, stacking up to three times for a maximum of one stack per skill use.
  • 2 stars: Increase the current weapon’s base attack growth by 16%.
  • 3 stars: When hitting a target with a skill or discharge skill, apply one stack of War Wounds to the target: Increase incoming physical damage and shatter from physical weapons by 10% for 15 seconds. Stack up to 1 time.
  • 4 stars: Increase the current weapon’s base health growth by 32%.
  • 5 stars: Hitting targets with skills or discharge skills grants a skill damage boost, which increases all weapon skill damage by 20% for 25 seconds. This effect cannot be stacked.
  • 6 stars: Skills hitting the same target no longer have reduced damage. After using Guren Blade’s skills or discharge skill, all targets with War Wounds within eight metres gain another one-stack of War Wounds.

Claudia awakening traits

Choosing to play as specific simulacra instead of the Wanderer you designed in the Tower of Fantasy character customisation menu is largely a cosmetic choice. However, the awakening system allows you to unlock a couple of additional buffs and abilities unique to that simulacrum by offering them gifts to earn points. Claudia’s preferred gifts are Everyday Items, Rare Items, and Decorations.

  • 1,200 points: Blink – Go invisible for one second upon dodging.
  • 4,000 points: Shadow – Go invisible for 1.5 seconds upon dodging.
