This process remains the same for Luocha, a five-star Imaginary character who follows the path of Abundance. He was already a part of the main story ever since the game launched, but he only became a playable character in the version 1.1 update. Here are all the materials you’ll need for him.

When you head over to Luocha’s Trace section, you’ll see a tree filled with different buffs that you can get for the character if you spend some materials. This area consists of five main Traces: Basic Attack, Skill, Ultimate, Talent, and Technique. Out of these, the first four can be upgraded up to a certain level.
TheBasic Attack can go up to level six while the Skill, Ultimate, and Talent can go up to ten. The materials required by these two groups are also different:
