Holo-Battle Interlink is a recurring challenge unlocked at Trailblazer I. It supports a four-player team or AI teammates.
Each cycle has three routes with different Alpha encounters and environmental mechanics. Choose a lineup and offering buffs before fighting; the team leader selects the buffs in co-op.
The mode records the highest Star Rank on each route separately. Their combined total determines milestone rewards. Helping another Pathfinder improve their result grants Support Rewards.
Routes can be replayed, while Star Rank and Support Rewards reset weekly. The published schedule runs from Thursday at 04:00 to Monday at 03:59 on the server clock.
Holo-Battle Sim is the separate solo training mode. Its run structure and rewards should not be confused with Interlink.
Entry and scoring
Reach character level 55 and Trailblazer I, then enter through the Hall of Polaris in the Institute or the Elite Training menu. Set the Main and support lineup before entering. In a multiplayer team, the leader chooses the Offerings.
Each player directly controls their Main. The other lineup members appear briefly to use Core Skills, and damage those members receive is transferred to that Main. Plan support actions with the Main's remaining HP in mind.
Each side encounter has 16 HP bars and awards one Star per bar removed. The middle encounter awards two Stars per bar. Improve each route separately to raise the combined total; a strong result on one route does not erase the other routes' records.
The phase examples below explain how particular encounter modifiers interact. Check the active cycle before choosing a team: its opponents and Offerings can differ. These Interlink modifiers do not apply to ordinary field bosses.
Responding to encounter modifiers
Modifier | Cue and response |
|---|---|
Chain Snare | Two players are tethered and lose HP. Move a tether into the boss to end it; contact binds the boss for 1 second and inflicts BREAK. |
Trick Bomb | A seed is placed every 45 seconds. After 5 seconds it begins a 2-second warning, then leaves a lasting hazard. Place it away from useful fighting space and move before it detonates. |
Chainbot | A robot appears every 45 seconds, up to three at once. A linked player is stunned until the robot is destroyed; prioritize freeing them. |
Offering interactions
Offering | Condition and effect |
|---|---|
Water Pressure Imbalance | Above 10 Water Debuff stacks, consumes 10 to apply a 5-second effect. Damage can trigger a hit equal to 100% ATK; the minimum trigger interval is 5 seconds. |
Multi-Cast | Skill damage grants points. At 12 points, the next skill costs no EP and has no cooldown. |
Unscathed | While HP is above 80%, grants 60% basic-attack speed and 40% REGEN. |
Anomaly Spark | At 10 Fire Debuff stacks, creates orbs that restore 10 EP. |
Kinetic Energy | Raises the EP cap by 15. While EP is below 50%, spending 10 EP returns 5 EP. |
