Shining Resonance Refrain’s traits/bonds system can be confusing for players at first. But don’t worry because here’s a complete and easy to follow Shining Resonance Refrain Traits and Bonds Guide. Use this guide to unlock more traits and boost bonds for your party in the Bond Diagram.
Where to find Shining Resonance Refrain Traits and Bonds
To find the traits, first, open the main menu. Then select Bond Diagram and you will see the traits there. The Bond Diagram shows your character’s relationship to each other. Each character has “personality” or a trait that can boost your performance in battles. The more traits you unlock, the more combinations or bonds you can form between characters, giving you more advantage in the game.
Get Shining Resonance Refrain Traits and Bonds
You can get your first traits once you’ve completed Op.1 Moonlit Overture and during Op.2 as you go through the story. Then you can get more traits as you explore some special DLC outfits. There are also traits in the wild which will be discovered naturally.
The primary traits you acquire in Shining Resonance Refrain are grey in color. This means they have no boosting effect on your party or bonds in the Bond Diagram. Definitely, remove these traits once you acquire the new ones that we will give you.
Here is our Shining Resonance Refrain Traits and Bonds Guide. It shows you the character names, their traits, type and how to unlock them. Enjoy!
