Noctis (5★) description
The prince of the Kingdom of Lucis, spoken of in stories from the faraway land of Eos. He set out from the capital with his three friends looking forward to his wedding which would guarantee peace with the Niflheim Empire. Though he often acts brash in order to hide his shy and soft-spoken nature, he inherited his father's compassion for others and is a truly kind person. He is particularly accepting of his friends, treating them as if they were part of his own family.
Noctis (6★) description
Gameplay[]
A 5-6★ Rare Summon, Noctis's job is listed as Prince, and his roles are Physical Damage and Support. Noctis's default attack is a 3-hit attack with the Engine Blade. He has no innate element or status ailment resistances. His Trust Master reward is the Ring of the Lucii accessory (which gives access to the Holy, Alterna and Death abilities), as well as ATK and MAG +30%, and raises the unit's Evasion by 25%.
Noctis was released near simultaneously on the Global and Japanese version of the game. However, at the time of his release in Global, he would have been far too powerful compared to what was available at that time. In order to balance things, minor changes were made to his Trust Master reward, his Limit Burst, and a few of his active and passive abilities compared to his Japanese counterpart. However, with the event The Frozen Cavern, some changes were made to make Noctis (and Ring of the Lucii) more like the Japanese version.
His awakening materials are the following: Calamity Gem x20, Calamity Writ x10, Prismatic Horn x10, Rainbow Bloom x5, Divine Crystal x5

Armiger (ファントムソード, Fantomusōdo?, lit. Phantom Sword) is Noctis's Limit Burst, and a damage and support-type ability. It is based off "Armiger Arsenal" from Final Fantasy XV Episode Duscae, in which Noctis uses Aqesiro, Secace, Galatine and Rhongomyniad (the demo-only royal arms) in rapid succession and warps to strike the enemy.
Originally, Armiger was a 5-hit attack that dealt physical damage to a single enemy, while boosting the entire party's stats (ATK, DEF, MAG, SPR) by 40/59% (5★) or 50/74% (6★) for two turns. However, following Noctis' buff for the event The Frozen Cavern, Armiger has stronger modifiers and better buffs, while adding the effect of giving Noctis general damage mitigation for two turns, and enabling Noctis to use Point-Blank Warp-Strike for one turn. The damage mitigation effect will depend on Noctis' rarity: it will mitigate either by 20% (5★) or 30% (6★).
Tha damage modifier and how much stats will increase will depend on Noctis' LB level:
| Rarity | Name | Change in Effect | Cost | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5★ | Armiger | Base (Lv. 1) | Damage dealt (9x); boosts stats by 80% | 24
|
| Max (Lv. 20) | Damage dealt (12.8x); boosts stats by 99% | |||
| 6★ | Armiger | Base (Lv. 1) | Damage dealt (10x); boosts stats by 100% | 30
|
| Max (Lv. 25) | Damage dealt (14.8x); boosts stats by 124% | |||
| 7★ | Armiger | Base (Lv. 1) | Damage dealt (?x); boosts stats by ?% | 36
|
| Max (Lv. 30) | Damage dealt (?x); boosts stats by ?% | |||
