| Character Details | In the fallen city of bandits, Dolos, the Race onward, fleet-footed Thief Star Cifera, Chrysos Heir of the "Trickery" Coreflame. May your web of lies spread with the breeze throughout all lands. —"Tryna trick me? Not a chance!" |
| Character Story: Part I | "At the end of the Month of Weaving, bread, a bag of dried fruit, and numerous candles were stolen from the temple. Though the value of the items may be trivial, sacrilege and disorder both merit severe punishment. The suspect is gray-haired, cat-eared, slight build. Considered agile and cunning. Exercise caution. A bounty is set: "Catch her, catch her!" The square was lined with cells, reeking of raw sewage and echoing with whips and wails. A girl in tattered rags sprinted through the crowded streets, trailing golden blood in her wake. She raced past the platform, where a potbellied priest was delivering a sermon to the city's gathered faithful. "By Kephale's grace, let us praise and give thanks for this beautiful world..." "Integrity, honesty, mercy..." "—Let us water our souls with virtue, and use love to temper tragedy..." Just as the girl glanced back, the snarling hounds pursuing her lunged, carving three fresh gashes on her face. "Treasure and wealth mean naught to Titans, yet they prove your devotion..." Amid cheers, silks, delicacies, and jewels rained onto the platform, forming a small mountain. "Shun the Chrysos Heirs' raving lies. Have faith in Kephale. So long as we pray earnestly, the god shall deliver salvation..." She pushed her way through the crowd, losing the bread in her hand somewhere along the way. Desperately, she looked around, only to find condescending faces staring down at her, surging toward her like a restless tide. Her knees went weak as mocking glances and threatening smiles blurred before her eyes. But the distant voices had already burrowed into her ears, and she couldn't stop. "Thief!" "Criminal!" "Wretch!" Closing her eyes, she plunged from that three-hundred-meter-high wall. "So... hungry..." Icy waters swallowed her consciousness. And so, she claimed her first pyrrhic victory in a race with her life on the line. * Unlocked at Character Level |
| Character Story: Part II | Exiled to the holy city of dawn, she witnessed how the legends of the Chrysos Heirs surged through the streets. Yet when she saw its squalid alleys and filthy, cramped corners, she found the place no different from Dolos. "Hmph! What Flame-Chase? What heroes? If my experience isn't wrong, I smell shady schemes afoot!" Deeming the Chrysos Heirs glory-hungry frauds, she targeted a certain golden weaving workshop. "Honey brew? A chessboard... and a weird lyre? These have got to be stolen..." She guzzled the honey brew, devoured the dolmadakia, and toyed with the crystal chess pieces. "Heh, even the floor's spinning..." When she awoke from her drunken stupor, she found a perfumed letter in her hand. Hair standing on end, she threw off the blanket and fled to her shadowy den. "Little Glutton: Did you enjoy your fun? You treated the weaving hall like your personal playground. You tasted the honey brew, but couldn't handle it. The chessboard's a complete mess, and you didn't even spare the old lyre. But remember this: Always drink honey brew to the last drop, and no situation in this world is beyond salvation. I know you possess great skill, so fix the lyre you damaged. You're lucky a certain knight commander wasn't there, or she surely would've pinned your tail to the floor with her sword." Clutching the confidential letter, the girl felt a vague, indescribable emotion rising within her for the first time. "Big city folks... they sure got a lot of tricks, huh?" The stray cat waited day after day for a harsh reckoning, yet she wasn't held to account. So, she would whistle, tossing a coin in the air, and time and time again "accidentally" stop in front of the weaving workshop. "Ciphy, if there's anything you want to eat, just tell us!" The red-haired girls would always have a heap of food at the ready. While following the weaver at work, she often heard the stories of those heroes. "For those with golden blood, losses are a constant on the Flame-Chase journey... and even life itself holds little value." The weavers spoke of the violin's final wail, the chess pieces that fell in a doomed game, the shattered pathways splitting into a thousand fragments... "...And what's that have to do with me? I just want a full belly." She muttered, curling her fingers. A tiny bead of golden blood welled up from her pricked fingertip. That night, she silently slipped out of the weaving shop once again. "It's okay. Run, Cifera. Only you know where your path ends..." Under the moonlight, her figure vanished from sight, leaving nothing in the room but the weaver's murmured words. * Unlocked at Character Level |
| Character Story: Part III | "Zagreus, god of trickery of old: Stealing treasures, sowing discord among the gods, stirring up conflict... Your stale ploys weary us. This next Spirit Day, the The world will be ours, craven god! Watch us turn it upside down!" "North from Okhema, across the snow-covered mountains, lies Aenionus. There, I secretly changed two characters on the Granite Code, winning a rogue's indenture in a trial of life and death. In bays of the south, I snuck aboard a moored ship and dueled a rogue in the middle of a storm, and I hate water most of all! Then guess what? In a stroke of genius, I whipped out my Pulleroo and took his sword away! And there's more — under the blazing desert sun, I competed with outlaws to see who could last the longest without water, and in the dense jungle, I raced against hunters... until all The girl in golden boots spoke animatedly about her journey. "Next, it's time for every tyrant, parasite, and slaver in all of Amphoreus to witness the power of the so-called wretches they despise!" She recalled how the moment the Coin of Whimsy fell, three hundred Thief Stars streaked across the sky, descending upon the lands of Amphoreus. Lofty tyrants tumbled from their thrones, whip-wielding slavers fled in disgrace, torrents of gold vanished into thin air, only to rain down from the heavens upon the starving and the shivering... During that grand spectacle, Zagreus could not resist the temptation and revealed themselves, falling right into the Chrysos Heirs' ambush. The blazing Coreflame, at last, fell silent within the vortex's core. In the city of Okhema, whispers began to spread of a demigod swift as a shadow, a guardian of vagrants, a scourge to the wicked — "All I can do, is run!" * Unlocked at Character Level |
| Character Story: Part IV | "To all priests, high priests, and acolytes of the city-states, to the faithful beneath the radiance of the Throne of Worlds, and to all sentient beings: Since the passing of our High Priest, the Gem of All Worlds has gone missing. Upon investigation, no signs of forced entry or damage were found at the scene. After its theft, multiple reports claim to have seen the gem enter the black market, where it was exchanged for a vast sum of Balance Coins. Anyone providing useful information will receive a reward of "Wow, all this time, and this thing's still up...?" She remembered the day the bounty was posted, the moment she had no choice but to say goodbye. She couldn't meet the weaver's eyes and could only turn away, hastily turning tail and fleeing Okhema. Centuries later, new heroes flocked here from across Amphoreus. Her hood drawn low, she gazed at the old marketplace from afar, but few familiar faces remained. "A new flavor of pickled candies?" Crumpling the wrapper, she casually flicked it toward the flowerbed. "Glass marbles! Haven't played with these in ages!" She weighed one in her hand, aiming as she mimed tossing it into the water. ... Moments later, figures dressed as assassins tumbled down one after another from the flowerbed, the water, the trees— And yet farther ahead, the young hero stood bathed in light, returning in triumph. She watched from the shadows until the golden thread beside her trembled. "Seamstress, all these years, and your golden threads are sharp as ever. If I don't wanna get caught, I'd better get going!" She stretched lazily, crouching slightly as the wind swept past, heavy with the scent of the wilds. Once more, a golden streak of lightning tore from Okhema toward the eternal night. In the howling wind, she felt as if she had returned to her childhood, to those countless races where her life itself was on the line. "Run, Cifera... Only you know where your path ends... And one day, you'll be able to sprint into that splendid future..." In the instant the lightning split the night, it was as if she had already illuminated the entire world. * Unlocked at Character Level |

They really hate nihility and want to promote remembrance a luxury path when all of them are 5*
I saw on like a random reddit post that she doesn’t decrease DEF anymore but here it still says she does. I am so confused…
They changed it to Vulnerability. The site just hasn’t been updated I think.
Oh man… doesn’t this make her worse for acheron with jiaoqui. Why do they hate her so much T-T
Vulnerability stacks so I don’t think it’s that bad. They just gave her more baseline value because Vulnerability wins over DEF Shred until you reach high amounts of DEF Shred. That’s what I read anyway.
I guess it’s not as bad as I thought… but it does make it a bit more difficult to find f2p lightcones for her since she can’t use tutorial mission lc anymore.
it’s still a nerf because vulnerability and def scale better alongside each other, compare to by themselves
we lost also possibilty to use welt 5* LC for a DPS option
I’m not pressing big panic button yet, but why? Why you kill my girl like this in V2? Why do they wanna do dirty every character I really, but really, want? She wasn’t even that crazy before to grant such big nerf to her. Yea, she was good, but compared to playable Hoolay that had to get tons of nerf to remotely make her balanced (still is busted), or toddler with unlimited FUA that deleted the game (made even more busted now), her V1 was least crazy territory by far. Leave my cat alone.
At this point ama start shittalking March and Sampo, so when their 5* arrive, they avoid my curse, because it seems that every single time I express excitement over some character, thing like this happens to them at some point. Well, still not time for big red panic button as I said as she still has a chance. It just baffles me why these changes were even done to her in the first place. At V2 only at that.
its V2 man… relax big guy
I’m a bit worried about the nerf on the follow up multiplier, from %400 to %250, HUGE cut in damage, but there was some compensation by making the passive more consistent to stack. I hope this means they will make the follow up more spammable, as opposed to it feeling like an afterthought. What changes are we hoping for V3? Mine is when Cipher gets a certain amount in the tally, she launches her follow up (for example, in increments of 45, the number goes up in x amount.
Also if you cant tell, i really want her to work as well as possible with Feixiao LOL! Tired of using Moze and march, lowkey.
i think it would be cool if she, at the very least, used a follow-up if the target w/ her debuff received damage from an ult. Similar to tribbie, but also not – since tribbie needs to ult to refresh her follow-up triggers
how much ehr does she need for her lightcone and e1? i’ve tried to do the math myself but i’m so can someone be help 🙏
A fellow commenter helped me out with this! You need %39 ehr to GUARANTEE the debuff lands, but i’m in the mindset now to where you don’t need %100. It would hurt your damage to put that many substats into it. If they don’t change her light cone to simply applying it on hit, Try getting to like 15+ ehr, and you should be fine. You’ll be at %80 plus of a chance
From what I have seen, which I may be mistaken, 20-34 ehr should do the job.
Dual DPS Aglaea w/ Cipher has been in my head since earlier today (13/04/2025).
Aglaea, Sunday, HuoHuo, Cipher.
I was thinking the same thing how would this team be?
Im definently using my quaranteed pull for this hot kitty.
So… how much of an upgrade is she over topaz in fei teams and pela in an acheron team? Im
also guessing boundles choreo could be good on her or are there any more low cost options?
I believe it’s because of the 30% defense loss, which seems to be “better” than the 50% increase in extra attacks, I don’t know exactly
what do we think about the Ashblazing Grand Duke set for her ?
Because her FuA seem to hit a good amount of time (i’d say 5 from what i seen).
So that would mean 20% dmg boost on FuA and 30% Atk (which will stay for skill and Ultimate too)
It wouldn’t be bad on her, but i think you’ll find Pioneer to feel better and be more consistent since it helps with crit stats. She’s a pain to build as of now. I think it depends on who you’re pairing her with. Feixiao, you can lean into more personal damage for her so Pioneer. With Acheron, focus more on SPD for more consistent debuffs. So x2pc spd.
Pionneer is probably good but since i have a quite strong Topaz and i want to play both i’ll have more than enough Crit Dmg (74%+80% from cipher E2)
Grand Duke may be more situationnal but in my situation it should be good.
I think she s no pain to build cuz all you need to get is 8 SPD in additionals to get 180 SPD with signature. So pioneer is BiS for now.
Imagine mobs have no armour with Feixiao an cipher with signas
I think we’re likely to get new sets by the time Cypher releases, so I wouldn’t invest in relic farming for her yet.
not from what we know, so it’s probably better to use a set that you already farmed.
i think she want general things that every other Dps want so she may not have a dedicated set at the end.
I wasn’t even that hyped when she was teased but drip + reading the kit changed that completely.
Don’t even care how bad she might be or how useless the team I have in mind will be, I’m grabbing her for sure! If E1 stays as is I might go for it too, but I heard it was a translation error and it only increases the trigger count by 1 not by 2.
We’ll see how the betas go :3
GG Cipher you will be missed. such a beautiful character nerfed to the ground. Is she going to be the weakest of the 3.X characters?
No but like for real. I don’t understand why she got gutted like that. I’ll probably still go for her since I’ve barely liked characters in Amphoreus but still…
dude. it’s V2. stop doomposting and relax. It’ll end up just fine. We’re still quite a ways away. If she remains terrible during V5? Okay maybe time to worry. but dude. It’s V2 man relax
