These cards will provide buffs such as increasing defense and shield stats. Here you can choose to equip an entire 4-piece set to a character to give them that extra stat bonus, or you can combine two different card types to mix the 2-set bonus for them. This allows you to have some freedom in what you equip your characters, but the 4-piece sets do allow for a solid number of bonuses that should be considered when bringing out a character’s maximum potential.
How to Level Revelation Cards
The next step in setting up your cards will be to level them. Leveling is important to increasing their power, as this will provide some extra boosts to the stat bonuses that they apply to your characters. When you are ready and satisfied with the cards you’ve obtained, you’ll want to head to your Bag in the main menu of the game. You can navigate to the Cards tab in the Bag menu and then check the details of each card.
In the details section, you can use other cards. There are normal versions or duplicates, as well as some various upgrade materials you can gather from specific fights. Quick Select is also an option to select the optimal materials and cards to convert for the levels on these cards. The maximum level you can achieve for cards will also vary with their rarity. A blue card has a max level of 15 while a purple card has a max level of 20, so make sure you level your ideal cards accordingly.
How to Equip Revelation Cards
Now that you have your cards and they’ve been leveled, it is time to equip them.
To equip your cards, you will now head into your Thieves section in the main menu. This will open up your roster of characters, allowing you to level and edit their gear. When on the character you wish to add cards to, you’ll want to click on the Revelations button. You’ll now be able to equip their Recommended Sets via the menu here, or play with the options and put together card builds you prefer. Once done, you’ll be able to gear up and go into battle with extra stats and buffs to your cast of Phantom Thieves.
With your characters geared up with cards and set up for battle, you are ready to take on all the game has to offer. Make sure that these Revelation Cards are eventually leveled up; the more you get into the end-game content offered, while these bonuses may not offer much right out of the gate, they still do provide solid stats that can elevate each character further.
