Argent Skull
Explosive shell Attacks with lunging Specials used to recover spent ammunition.
Nocturnal Arms
Weapon Aspects
01
Aspect of Melinoë
Rank bonuses Attack power per unretrieved Shell I +0 · II +3 · III +6 · IV +9 · V +12
How it works
Attack gains base damage for every fired Shell still on the ground. Later shots in a full volley become stronger, especially when you delay retrieval.
How to play it
Fire all Shells before retrieving them, aiming the strongest final shot at the priority target. Then Special through the landing area to reload in one pass. Extra Shells and Attack multipliers improve the loop.
02
Aspect of Medea
Rank bonuses Attack and Special damage I +30% · II +45% · III +60% · IV +75% · V +90%
How it works
Attack Shells stay beside Melinoë and explode when Special connects or their fuse ends. The Skull becomes a close-range delivery weapon with a very large damage multiplier.
How to play it
Load all Shells, line up the target, then Special through it to deliver every explosion together. Use Cast or armor to create a safe approach, and prioritize both Attack and Special bonuses because the combo uses both.
03
Aspect of Persephone
Rank bonuses Maximum random bonus levels for Boons I +2 · II +3 · III +4 · IV +5 · V +6
How it works
Omega Special gains fuel and steering, while divine Boons may appear with random bonus levels up to the listed maximum. Its power grows across the whole run rather than only through the weapon move set.
How to play it
Use the steerable Omega Special for long passes through packed rooms and to collect Shells safely. Take high-impact Boons whose level scaling is strong, but keep the build coherent instead of selecting every unusually high-level offer.
04
Aspect of Hel
Rank bonuses Valkyrie Attack speed I +5% · II +10% · III +15% · IV +20% · V +25%
How it works
Omega Special leads into a Valkyrie overheat form with a new, faster firing pattern. Rank increases the Attack speed available during that transformed window.
How to play it
Enter overheat when the room gives you several seconds of safe pressure, then spend the entire window attacking. Prepare Cast control and Magick beforehand; do not trigger the form just as enemies become untargetable.
How the weapon plays
The Skull is built around a complete ammunition loop: fire every Shell, reposition, then use Special to cross the room and collect them. Empty chambers are not downtime if retrieval itself deals damage. Plan where shots land so the reload route passes through enemies instead of danger.
