Vision sources
Vision Shards drop from random enemies; Crystallise Crystals come from elite monsters and shrines. The Resonance Boost consumable increases Vision XP by 50% for 30 minutes and is worth burning during a 25→30 push.
Mastery Rank and Magicite Awakening progression
Vision Mastery Points (MRP) raise a Vision's Mastery Rank (MR) from 1 to 9, unlocking abilities and bonus AP. Magicite in three sizes awakens each Vision in three stages; each stage adds a passive slot and a stat bump. The in-Vision ability retention rule means passives from a previously equipped Vision do not carry over when you swap Crysts — save five custom loadouts per character so you can rotate roles without rebuilding.
Cloud's Physical Damage scales from +8% to +20% with a 15% Stun on crit secondary at Lv 15; Y'shtola's Healing Power scales from +10% to +25% with Water damage +15% at Lv 12; Warrior of Light's Defense scales from +5% to +15% with Provoke on hit at Lv 18; Terra's Magic Damage scales from +8% to +20% with MP regen +2/turn at Lv 15.
Public tier-list ranks (ffresonance.wiki, thegameswiki) rate the top end at SS — Victoria (159), Ayaka (149), Charlotte (151) — with Camille trailing at 144 as the S-tier floor. Demo players pushed Vision Mastery Rank 5 before the October 22, 2026 launch; endgame Mastery Rank demands disciplined Vision switching.
Crystal questions at each Sanctum
At every Sanctum of Light the crystal asks a near-light question; answering yes reveals the Vision Cryst. The exact prompts are covered in the crystal questions and answers page.
