11 Overview

33 Watch Your Heads! is an A-Class Arc in Neverness to Everness that enhances Lakshana damage output by providing ATK and Lakshana DMG bonuses after using a Skill. The Lakshana DMG bonus specifically applies to targets affected by Remora or Stain elemental reactions, making this Arc strongest in team compositions that can trigger those reactions consistently.

55 The passive effect lasts 15 seconds after a Skill use and does not stack, so players do not need to worry about maintaining multiple charges. Instead, the focus is on ensuring that enemies are affected by Remora or Stain before the Lakshana character attacks to maximize the conditional DMG bonus.

1111 The playful, slightly ominous flavor text contrasts with the Arc's combat-focused mechanics. The reference to a laughing kite suggests a mischievous spirit or creature that appears harmless but carries a hidden threat. This whimsical tone reflects the Arc's nature: what seems like a simple ATK boost conceals a powerful conditional bonus for prepared teams.

1818 At L5, Watch Your Heads! provides +20% ATK and +20% Lakshana DMG against afflicted targets. The ATK bonus applies universally to all damage, while the Lakshana DMG bonus is conditional on the target having a Remora or Stain status. Both bonuses together make this Arc a strong choice for reaction-based team compositions.

2626 Characters who do not deal Lakshana damage or teams that cannot reliably trigger Remora or Stain reactions will not get full value from this Arc. The ATK bonus alone is usable but modest compared to other A-Class options.

3535 Team composition is critical for Watch Your Heads!. Build teams that can apply Remora or Stain reactions before the Lakshana character attacks. Use the Esper Cycle to swap to element applicators first, then switch to the Lakshana DPS.Since the buff does not stack, you only need to use a Skill once every 15 seconds to maintain the effect. Focus on maximizing damage within each buff window rather than spamming Skills.The ATK bonus applies to all damage types, not just Lakshana. Even if a target is not affected by Remora or Stain, the wielder still benefits from the ATK increase after using a Skill.In multi-enemy encounters, prioritize applying Remora or Stain to high-priority targets before focusing Lakshana damage on them to maximize the conditional bonus.

59+How to Obtain
60+ 
61+Watch Your Heads! drops from the Scarborough Fair gacha banner. Every 10-pull guarantees at least one A-Class or higher Arc, so consistent pulling produces copies for refinement without requiring soft pity. Some A-Class Arcs also appear in event shops and as story milestone rewards, including the free event-exclusive The Forgotten from the Hethereau Residents Guide pre-launch campaign.

63+Extended Tips
64+ 
65+The 40% CRIT DMG secondary is the highest CRIT DMG roll on any A-Class Arc at launch, which makes it a strong crit-focused pick even before considering the passive.The passive demands consistent Remora or Stain uptime. Run at least one teammate who reliably applies those reactions, such as other Lakshana Espers or Trio Reaction enablers.Watch Your Heads! outperforms itself in longer boss fights where reaction uptime can be maintained. Shorter trash pulls leave the passive under-utilized.
