| Name | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Active Corruption | The more Etherium held, the greater enemies' ATK (takes effect when 10 or more are held). | You wonder if all this Etherium you're carrying is setting off these Ethereals... THey're definitely a lot more active. |
| PTSD | Discards one Etherium at the conclusion of combat, but gains some Gear Coins | The battle seemed like it'd never end, and the Ethereal's death rattle lingers disconcertingly in your memory. ENough! It must be these stupid Etherium playing tricks... |
| Corruption Overload | A certain amount of HP is lost when exploring new areas. In combat, your active agents will lost HP gradually. | Like air, the corruption of the Ether seeps into every being, humans or robots alike. |
| Muscle Fatigue | Dodge has a longer cooldown. | The swift fighting moves and combos you had previously mastered... It's a struggle now just to recall how they went. |
| Toxic Dependency | HP is restored at the conclusion of combat, but Pressure is increased. | Defeated enemies explode in a puff of Ether, and bathing in it you feel a sense of soothing like never before. Who cares at what cost. More enemies... I want more, and more...! |
| Assimilation | Increases to Pressure are larger, but picking up Etherium restores HP. | You grow accustomed to the burning pain of the restless Ether as you gradually become one with the Hollow... This is the path to total collapse. |
| Self Reassurance | When Pressure increases, you can use Gear Coins to negate it, but you will suffer more Pressure if you run out of Gear Coins. | "Calm down..." "Yeah... I will survive as long as I have Gear Coins..." |
| Rampage | The Bangboo merchant offers discounts, but also fewer items. | For some reason, everyone has become violent. Not even the Bangboo merchants can resist. |
| Suspicion | Boss attacks have a chance to deal critical damage. | The ominous scent of Ethereal and absolute dread permeates the entire Hollow. Despair gradually penetrates every inch of you. |
| Sinister Resonance | When Pressure increases, your Pressure either does not increase or increases by a lot. | The intensifying uneasiness in your soul is taking its toll. |
| Sinister Resonance | Boss attacks have a chance to deal critical damage. | The ominous scent of Ethereal and absolute dread permeates the entire Hollow. Despair gradually penetrates every inch of you. |
| Corruption Bond | Every 1 Corruption increases both enemy and ally ATK. | The Ether corruption somehow envelopes you, binding pain with evil. |
| Demotivation | Idle members gradually lose Energy. | You've gradually lost your focus. You fight only to survive. |
| Energizing Effect | Enemy Stagger diminishes over time, Stun multiplier is increased. | Squad members are shrouded in a mist of special Ether. This seems to have vitalized the Ethereal. |
| Chain of Panic | When your Pressure is overloaded, all squad members lost HP. | "Oh nooooo... We're all finished here!" "I just sneezed. Am I going to die?" |
| Etherium Repulsion | Fewer Etherium are offered. | This stuff makes me feel sick... It smells like an Ethereal... it's not an embryo, is it? |
| Cognitive Disorder | Unable to see the details of Etherium when selecting them, but there's a greater chance of gaining rare Etherium. | Something important in your brain is fading away. This time, the Proxy tied a hard knot. |
| Resistance Decline | Traps become more deadly. | Your body is weakened along with your soul, as fragile as wreckage within a Hollow. |
