Hi, Rovers! Depths of Illusive Realm: Chromatic Fantasy is finally here, and this one is perfect if you enjoy the “make one character completely broken” kind of roguelike mode.
This guide focuses on a simple and stable Mornye-centered route that works from lower difficulties all the way up to high reward-rate runs. If you just want the main rewards and the Fantasy Weaver title, clearing around 300% reward rate is the comfortable goal. If you want to push harder, 450% is doable too, but it asks for cleaner Symphony Rank control.

Why Mornye Is So Good Here
Mornye is one of the easiest picks for Chromatic Fantasy because her Illusive Realm upgrades turn her into a very safe airborne damage dealer.
Inside this mode, your selected Resonator is boosted by the event system, so you do not need to panic over regular level investment. However, your weapon and Resonance Chain still matter, so a better-built Mornye will naturally feel smoother.
The big reason she works so well is simple: once Mornye enters her airborne state, she can keep dealing damage while staying away from a lot of ground pressure. That makes her great for higher difficulties, especially when enemies hit hard and standing on the ground becomes dangerous.
For support, Verina is the safest pick. She adds healing and extra comfort, while your remaining slot can be flexible. You can bring whoever you like, since the run mainly revolves around Mornye’s own upgrades.
Thought Evolution Priority
Before pushing high difficulty, spend your Memory Points properly. For this Mornye route, the best priority is:
- Symphony Rank-related upgrades
- Combat upgrades
- Support upgrades
Symphony Rank is the most important part, especially for 450%. You want better Rank gain, slower Rank decay, and stronger rewards for keeping high Rank. The more stable your Symphony Rank is, the safer the whole run becomes.
After that, pick Combat upgrades to boost damage. Support upgrades are still useful, but they should come after your core damage and Rank stability are already online.
Best Echo Choices
For this route, your best Echo options are:
|
Echo |
Recommendation |
|
Bell-Borne Geochelone
|
Best safe choice |
|
Inferno Rider
|
Best aggressive choice |
|
Crownless |
Not recommended for this route |
|
Others |
Usable, but not the main pick |
Bell-Borne Geochelone is the safest choice if you want a cleaner 450% run. It gives you more room for mistakes and helps smooth out dangerous boss phases.
Inferno Rider is also strong and feels faster, especially if you are already comfortable with Mornye’s airborne rotation.
The only one I would avoid here is Crownless. It can work in other routes, but for this simple Mornye clear setup, it does not feel as smooth or as rewarding.
Best Mornye Character Upgrades
When choosing Mornye’s character upgrades, your first priority should be:
Synchronization
This is the core pick. With Synchronization, Mornye’s Resonance Skill can summon Hover Cannons to attack enemies. This makes her damage loop much smoother and turns her airborne playstyle into the center of the run.
After that, look for upgrades that strengthen her Resonance Skill, airborne damage, or overall uptime.
Good follow-up picks include:
|
Upgrade |
Why It Helps |
|
Synchronization |
Core upgrade; enables stronger Hover Cannon damage |
|
Global Protocol |
Adds more damage and improves Mornye’s overall flow |
|
Iteration |
Helps with Liberation uptime and boss control |
|
Resonance Skill upgrades |
Best damage value for this route |
|
Airborne-related upgrades |
Keeps Mornye safe while dealing damage |
Do not spread your build too thin. This route works because you fully commit to Mornye’s Skill and airborne loop.
Best Tokens to Pick
For Tokens, prioritize anything that helps with Symphony Rank.
The best Token effects are:
- Higher Symphony Rank gain
- Slower Symphony Rank decay
- Effects that help maintain at least S or SS Rank
- Resonance Skill DMG boosts
- Crit Rate / Crit DMG boosts
- General damage buffs with low downside
For 450%, Symphony Rank Tokens are more valuable than random damage Tokens. Damage is nice, but Rank stability keeps the run alive.
How to Choose Metaphors
Metaphors are not just random buffs. They also help unlock your Echo’s Additional Abilities.
Check what elemental requirements your Echo needs, then pick Metaphors that match those requirements. For example, if your Echo upgrade path asks for Fusion and Glacio-related energy, try to pick those when they appear.
Each requirement you meet pushes the Echo toward its next Additional Ability. Reaching the fourth Additional Ability is useful for some reward objectives, but you do not need to force it every single run.
Best Memory Room Priority
When choosing Memory Rooms, do not just enter whichever door looks closer. For this Mornye route, your room priority should be very clear: upgrade Mornye first, then strengthen your Echo setup.
The left door is your top priority because it upgrades Mornye’s own skills. Her whole run depends on getting her core upgrades online early.
Take the right door after Mornye’s important upgrades are done. It helps improve your Echo-related power and makes later floors smoother.
For Mornye, the first key upgrade you want is Synchronization. This lets her Resonance Skill summon Hover Cannons, which is the core of this easy-clear setup.
Mornye Basic Rotation
Mornye’s rotation in this mode is very simple once you get used to it.
Use this loop:
Start on the ground.
Use Basic Attacks until the attack indicator is ready.
Hold Basic Attack to launch into the air.
Stay airborne.
Use Basic Attacks and Resonance Skill.
Press Resonance Skill whenever it is available.
Use Resonance Liberation when needed, especially during boss phases.
In short:
Basic Attack → Hold Basic Attack → Airborne combo → Resonance Skill spam
Once Mornye is in the air, the run becomes much easier. Your main job is to keep her airborne and avoid wasting time on the ground.
One important thing: use your support skill only while Mornye is on the ground. If you trigger it while she is airborne, she may be forced to land, which breaks the whole rhythm. Land first, use support if needed, then relaunch right away.
Conclusion
That’s it for this Depths of Illusive Realm: Chromatic Fantasy guide. For this Mornye route, the plan is pretty simple: grab Synchronization early, keep Mornye airborne, build around her Resonance Skill, and protect your Symphony Rank when pushing higher reward rates.
Clearing 300% is enough for the main goal, but full reward cleanup also depends on Anomaly Investigation tasks. If a task asks for a different Resonator, a different Echo, or the fourth Echo Additional Ability, lower the difficulty and clear those objectives separately.
