Stages and effects
Each stage asks for more item level and adds effects that make monsters and bosses tougher. The run is scored on how fast the party kills the final boss and clears the mission without dying, and every cleared stage gives Arcana, of a higher grade on higher stages.

| Stage 1 | 1,600 | — |
| Stage 2 | 1,900 | Poison Blood |

Shattered Arkanis is the second Transcendence dungeon of Season 1, a temple swallowed by the Void, with 4 stages from 1,600 to 2,500 item level like Deus Research Base. The trash is light, the first named boss is about steering, and the final boss, Talisra of the Void, asks for a plan before the pull. Without a split of the colours, its shield mechanic fails and takes the party with it.
Route
- Most of the monster quota is in the first plaza, where the monsters come to you. Fill it there and skip other fights to save time.
- Follow the path to the first named boss, Siliator of Deceit.
- Carry on to the second, Ruthilis of Pain. Its attacks are ground zones with clear safe spots.
- The windstreams beyond lead to the entrance of the final room. Glide in to Talisra of the Void.
Siliator of Deceit
- Homing saw blades: two random players get a red line and a saw blade that chases them. The saws break when they hit each other, so the two players cross their lines, straight at each other or in an X, until the blades collide.
- Boomerang burst: Siliator moves to the centre and throws boomerangs in every direction. Step sideways out of each throw, then, as they fly back, stop in a gap and wait for them to pass.
Talisra of the Void
Talisra goes berserk after 5 minutes of combat. Settle before the pull which players take each colour.
- Colour orbs: orbs of two colours appear. Each player picks up only orbs of their own colour, and each orb leaves a shield of that colour where the player stands. If everyone takes the same colour, there are no shields of the other one, and the next step wipes the party. Keep some distance between players, because shields placed on top of each other do not form.
- Colour order: Talisra then shows a sequence of colours at the tip of its weapon and strikes in that order. Move into a shield of the colour it shows each time. The same colour can come twice in a row, so follow the sequence, not a pattern.
- Waves: waves roll across the floor, two in a row. Jump a beat before each one reaches you. Jumping exactly on contact usually still counts as a hit.
What to run it for
Shattered Arkanis gives Arcana for the Mirror, the Parchment and the Chalice, each in its Vigor and Magic version. With the Bell and Compass from Deus Research Base, the two dungeons fill all five slots. The grade of the card depends on the stage, and Arcana adds to your item level. The class guides show which card of each slot the top players use.
The Amplify Stone Fragment drops at 20% per clear.
