Because 2★ and 5★ Demons are, generally, better and have the same maximum Sin Infusion limits as 1★ and 4★ Demons, respectively, the former would end up stronger than the latter after getting fully infused. The cut is not so clear regarding 3★ Demons (their limit is twice of 4★, but they are, usually, much weaker than them, mainly when it comes to Skills).

−
*Fusion, Conjunction and Talking may yield enhanced Demons.
 
−
*Fusion and Conjunction preserve Skills acquired by the Demons. On the other hand, because Talking effectively replaces Demons, any Skills collected by Demons replaced by Talking are lost. Because of that, Talking is usually less important than Conjunctions, and even Fusions.
 
−
*There are some Healing joints spread in the game, but
 
−
*Because Tokyo Abyss quests are similar to an [[Aura Gate]], it's very useful to have at least one Demon with a healing Skill (innate or transferred), as the Demons and characters don't heal/resurrect after battle.
 
−
*On deeper floors, Status Ailments start becoming more common, so it's worth investing in Luck, Status Cleansing, and Status Resistances or Immunity since earlier floors.
 
−
*Resurrection Skills are very important in deeper floors, but, because it plays like an [[Aura Gate]], avoid [[Recarmdra]].
 
  
−
At any time, the game allows going back to the Tokyo Abyss' title screen to reset it and start a new run (the acquired Demons and progress are discarded and the player is sent back to the 1st floor). It's not necessary to get stuck in a battle to reset, some times the built Team is so lousy (mainly due to Conjunction RNG) that it's not worth continuing.

Overview

Essence of Sin

Sin Infusion is similar to Mitama Infusion, except that it's much simpler.

  • Sin Infusion is available on the Mitama menu.
  • To perform a Sin Infusion, it's necessary to gather Icon Essence of Sin.png Essence of Sin, a material obtained as reward for playing Tokyo Abyss monthly quest.
  • There is only one kind of Essence of Sin, which can be applied to increase any basic stat of a Demon (Strength, Magic, Vitality, Agility, Luck).
  • A Demon must be awakened to receive a Sin Infusion.

The maximum Infusions a Demon may receive depends on its grade:

Demon Grade Maximum Infusions Essence/Increase
1★ 240 1
2★ 240 1
3★ 160 2
4★ 80 12
5★ 80 16

Because 2★ and 5★ Demons are, generally, better and have the same maximum Sin Infusion limits as 1★ and 4★ Demons, respectively, the former would end up stronger than the latter after getting fully infused. The cut is not so clear regarding 3★ Demons (their limit is twice of 4★, but they are, usually, much weaker than them, mainly when it comes to Skills).

It's important to note how unbalanced is the cost per point increased. 1★ and 2★ Demons require just one Essence of Sin to increase any Stat, while 4★ require 12. Considering those costs, Infusing 5★ Demons is proportionally cheaper than 4★.

Anyway, because Essence of Sin is a very time consuming item to gather (there's no Auto Move to run the Tokyo Abyss automatically, and it only resets the rewards once per month), it's better to spend it only on the best Demons, and only on those that will actually be used.
