Kanon's Enlightenment, with max levels in Envy and Sloth, three levels in Lust, two levels in Gluttony and no levels in Wrath
Enlightenment (called Kaigan in Japan) is a mechanic where a unit is able to progress beyond level 85 and gain a variety of benefits. To unlock the ability to obtain Enlightenment, you need to do spend a "Circle of Truth". These come in three colors: blue (for 1-3 star units), yellow (for 4 star units), and red (for 5 star units). For a five star unit, unlocking also requires 10 rainbow golems, 10 rainbow pots, 30 golems of the unit's elemental color, 30 Soul Alchemia, and 500,000 Zeni. This gives you access to the first gate (Envy). Each of the gates is named after one of the seven deadly sins. There are seven unlockable gates.
Gates[ | ]
- Envy: Levels increase HP, PATK, MATK, and AGI. The capstone increases additional stats, differing by character. Requires LB 25, unit level 85.
- Sloth: Levels increase PDEF, MDEF, CRIT, and Hit Rate. The capstone buffs one of the unit's passives. Requires J11 for the job of whichever passive it buffs. Requires Envy level 2.
- Lust: Levels increase HP, DEX, AGI, and Evasion. The capstone buffs the unit's leader skill. Requires Sloth level 2.
- Gluttony: Levels increase HP, PDEF, MDEF and Hit Rate. The capstone increases additional stats, and adds bonus damage against specific types of enemies. Requires Lust level 2.
- Wrath: Levels increase HP, PDEF, MDEF, AGI, and CRIT. The capstone buffs a single skill on one or more jobs. Requires Gluttony level 2.
- Greed: Levels increase HP, DEX, AGI and LUCK. The capstone adds a new sub-memento slot. The memento in the sub slot does not activate or provide memento leader skills. The equip stat, group skills and limit reached bonuses of the memento in the sub slot will scale with the number of limit breaks (from 10% at 0 limit breaks to 50% at 5 limit breaks, rounded down). Requires Wrath level 2.
- Pride: Levels increase HP, PATK, MATK, and AGI. The capstone unlocks a new featured called Spirit Gear which can be leveled for additional HP and other bonus stats (and in some cases skills). Requires Greed level 2. (maxing this gate will cost 200 shards)
Each gate you unlock will also increase the unit's max level by +2, for a total of level 99 with seven gates. You must unlock 2 levels in a gate to unlock the next gate.
Leveling up the gates requires a variety of materials (you can review the full costs through the Alchemist Code Database), but in terms of soul shards, the first level in each gate takes 5 soul shards, then each level takes 5 more soul shards than the last (so 50 shards total for the first 4 levels). Level 5 is an exception, with a differing cost for each gate (30 for Envy, 50 for Sloth, 40 for Lust, 40 for Gluttony, 50 for Wrath and 60 for Greed). For Pride the gate costs are higher than for the other gates (10 + 20 + 30 + 40 + 100).
Note: It is rare that you will fully max all gates on a unit- in most cases you will focus on maxing out specific high value gates (which ones are high value varies by unit), then may fill out parts of other gates for bonus stats if you have shards to spare.

Resource Types[ | ]
- Soul Shards: These are the same unit specific soul shards used for limit breaking the unit. Unlike limit breaking, these can't be replaced with elemental shards (although collaboration units can usually use Otherworlder Enlightenment Shard instead). You can also use the TAC Enlightenment Shard Calculator to see how many are required for your desired gate configuration
- Tokens: These are the country specific tokens that relate to the origin of the unit. For a list of where you can farm these items, see Enlightenment/Tokens.
- Idols/Statues: These are the statues used that are specific to each gate: Winged Serpent of Envy, Heroic Bear of Sloth and Mountain Ram of Lust, Wild Boar of Gluttony, Unicorn of Wrath and Dark Fox of Greed. They can be farmed every day in multiplayer or on Monday (Envy), Tuesday (Sloth), Wednesday (Lust), Thursday (Gluttony), Friday (Wrath), Saturday (Greed), Sunday (Pride) respectively for each in single player under Event: Daily Quests

They can be farmed any day in single or multiplayer in the Golem Games quests. You can also purchase these for zeni in the Secret Shop: Enlightenment Materials.
- Goddess Jar/Pots: These are evolution materials which are either specific to the element of the unit or rainbow. They come in two sizes, jar and pot. They can be farmed any day in single or multiplayer in the Goddess Worship quests. You can also purchase these for zeni in the Secret Shop: Enlightenment Materials.
- Sinful Indulgence: These are rare items used for maxing gate 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of enlightenment. They can be purchased in some coin shops (such as TAC Coin Exchange, Friendship Coin Exchange, EX Coin Exchange, and Mystic Tower Veda - Fringe Dimension Coin Exchange Shop) and are rewards from some events.
- Elemental Crystal: These items are used for gate 4, 5, 6 and 7 of enlightenment. The element of the crystal corresponds to the element of the unit. These are obtained via temporary events such as Consecrated Elements and Box Events as well as other rewards.
- Retribution for Sin: These are rare items used for maxing gate 4, 5 and 6 of enlightenment. They can be purchased in some coin shops (such as TAC Coin Exchange, Friendship Coin Exchange, EX Coin Exchange, and Mystic Tower Veda - Fringe Dimension Coin Exchange Shop) and are rewards from some events.

Collaboration Unit Enlightenment Items[ | ]
For collaboration units, there are alternative items you can use in place of standard items for enlightenment. Note that this does not include units like Sacred Stone Memories and time limited units, only ones from external game collaborations.
Otherworlder Eye of Enlightenment
This eye is used for unlocking enlightenment on some (but not all) free units from collaborations. Other collaboration units use standard eyes based on the unit rarity.
Otherworlder Enlightenment Shard[ | ]
These shards can be used in place of standard unit shards when enlightening a collaboration unit. They can only be used once you have consumed all shards of a unit. These shards will work for crossover units such as EO Chloe and EO Shenmei. These do not work for Nero or Bianca.
Otherworldly Indulgence[ | ]
These are used instead of sinful indulgence for units from other (such as collaboration units). Note that these are only usable by full collaboration units and not crossover units such as EO Chloe and EO Shenmei- they use standard sinful indulgence.
Otherworldly Retribution[ | ]
These are used instead of retribution for sin for units from other (such as collaboration units). Note that these are only usable by full collaboration units and not crossover units such as EO Chloe and EO Shenmei- they use standard retribution for sin.
Otherworldly Bubble[ | ]
These are used instead of sinful bubble for units from other (such as collaboration units). Note that these are only usable by full collaboration units and not crossover units such as EO Chloe and EO Shenmei- they use standard sinful bubble.
Otherworldly Acquittal Stamp[ | ]
These are used instead of final acquittal stamp for units from other (such as collaboration units). Note that these are only usable by full collaboration units and not crossover units such as EO Chloe and EO Shenmei- they use the standard final acquittal stamp.
Special Unit Enlightenment Items[ | ]
For some units, they use special items for parts of their enlightenment which are only obtainable in events associated with the units. Many Genesis units can only obtain certain enlightenment items from Godless Revolution. Gilfred can only obtain some of his enlightenment items from Mystic World Mobius. For a full list of where to find these specialized items, see Specialized Enlightenment Materials.
