Weapon Aspects

Increases Omega move channel speed and raises both maximum health and Magick. The simplest Aspect to build around: more Magick means more Omega moves, and faster channeling means fewer windows where you are vulnerable.

After 12 hits with Attack or Special you enter a Serene state: your next Omega move costs nothing net and deals significantly more damage. Because the counter is built with cheap hits, Circe rewards weapons and boons that land many small instances of damage rather than a few large ones.

Special becomes a three-orb volley, and every orb deals substantially more damage while you are below half health. Momus turns the staff into a burst weapon, but it asks you to fight close to the edge — bring defensive Arcana or a reliable healing source.

Attack and Special gain critical chance and armour penetration when they hit from behind. Combined with the Omega Attack teleport, you can reliably strike from the rear on demand.

Thrown blades seek enemies standing inside your Cast, and Omega Special fires many more of them. This is the strongest Aspect in the game for melting bosses: drop a Cast, then shred everything inside it from a safe distance.

Holding Special raises a parry stance. Parry an attack and your next strike is a guaranteed critical that also blinks you behind the attacker. The highest skill ceiling of any Aspect — and the highest reward when you read a boss correctly.

Speeds up the whole attack chain and adds substantial damage to the combo finisher. Directly patches the axe's main weakness.

When your Special shockwave touches your Cast, the Cast detonates for heavy area damage and its duration refreshes. The single strongest clearing tool against grouped enemies, and competitive at every Fear level.

Every enemy struck by your Attack adds 1% critical chance up to a rank-based cap. Taking damage wipes the stack, so this Aspect rewards clean play over raw damage output.

Every spirit mote you fire persists longer before fading and pierces more reliably. A straightforward quality-of-life boost that makes the torch feel far more consistent.

Fireballs from your Attack explode the moment your orbiting ring touches them, dealing area damage. This turns every shot into a chain reaction and makes Moros the highest sustained-damage Aspect on the weapon.

Dashing then attacking summons a large slow-moving wraith that continuously sprays projectiles in all directions. Excellent at zone control, since the wraith keeps dealing damage while you reposition.

Raises base Attack damage and increases how many skulls you can carry. Fewer dry stretches where you have no ammo to throw.

Attack no longer throws skulls — it loads them into Melinoë herself. Dashing into an enemy then detonates every loaded skull at once. This transforms the weapon from a ranged lobber into a melee burst tool, and it is one of the highest damage ceilings in the game.

Damage dealt fills a Glory gauge. Once full, your Omega Special gains brief invulnerability and a large damage bonus. Rewards building into one enormous hit rather than steady output.

Increases critical damage across all moves and raises how much the shield absorbs. Reliable and easy to build around.

Dashing briefly turns you invisible. The first attack out of stealth is a guaranteed critical that also applies a blinding curse. Strong for both burst damage and disengaging from a bad situation.

Mortar hits accelerate the charge on your current Hex and lower the threshold needed to fire it. The only Aspect in the game built specifically around Hex uptime.
