Gaius Probability Up Event
New heroes are often dropped with a drop rate-up banner and this update is no exception. Here are the main takeaways from the upcoming Gaius probability-up event:
- The event banner starts on 23rd August 2022 and ends on 11th September 2022. Players will be able to summon on the event banner using Super Sound Matrices and Gold Records.

Static Shock Event
The Static Shock event starts on 23rd August 2022 and ends on 5th September 2022. Players will be able to access this event if their Player level is 16+. Static Shock event is where we are going back to the basics of a classic event currency and event redeem shop case. Although, the new event will have its fair share of twists to give players a unique way of exploring the entire map. The event description reads “Every cloud has a silver lining and rainbow appears after darkness and thunder. Under such belief, he is devoted to chasing the light despite the shadow cast by the Miracles. His own life or death means nothing when it comes to protecting the seeds of the future. He is Gaius. The watcher of light.”. Players will be able to access the new event by clicking on the billboard sign that features Gaius. During the entire event, players will be able to collect Divine Essence and Thunder Essence which are the designated event currency for the Static Shock event. The entire map of the event will be unlocked at the beginning of the event. Other sub-gameplay modes like the Thunder Matrices, Resource Depots, and Extreme Route will be unlocked after reaching a certain point in the event story.
Static Shock event is not your typical event currency farming simulator where players just need to continuously auto-repeat the event stages to earn event currency. It has some serious depth to its gameplay modes. In fact, it has multiple different sub-events inside it. The different gameplay modes that come under Static Shock are as follows:
Thunder Matrice – Thunder Matrices can greatly empower the overall stats of your Espers while fighting the tough Boss Raids. Players need the divine power – Power of Thunder in order to upgrade their Thunder Matrices. Players can collect the Power of Thunder from exploring the event map and collecting resources from the Resource Depot.
Resource Depot – The Resource Depot is akin to AFK rewards present in other events of Dislyte. Players can unlock Resource Depot by exploring the Event Map. After being unlocked, players can get free resources on a continuous basis. Players can occupy these depots after defeating the enemies that have inhabited it. Players can find multiple resource depots.
Extreme Route – Extreme Route are like challenge missions where completing them will grant players abundant resources. Players can also view Gaius’s treasured badge and the backstory behind it after they have completed a certain amount of Extreme Route missions.
Infinite Miracle Adjustments
Here are the main takeaways from the adjustments coming to the Infinite Miracle:
- The rewards from the Infinite Miracle are changing from Wind Record Fragment x 2, Inferno Record Fragment x 2, Flow Record Fragment x 2 to Super Sound Matrix x 5.

- If the player is stuck on a specific floor of Spatial Tower, the difficulty of the floor will decrease by 3% every day, up to a maximum of 15%. Once the floor is cleared, the difficulty will return back to normal.
Desolate Lands Adjustments
Here are the main takeaways of the adjustments coming to the Desolate Lands:
- New ratings of EX, EX+, and EX++ have been added for all the bosses after the current highest rating of SSS. The newly added ratings will have a better chance of dropping good rewards.
