        • If the skill requirement of the skill that is being activated is no longer met due to unequipping or extracting the V Node, the Hexa Skill Node will be deactivated and the new skill given through the Hexa Skill Node will no longer be available.

        • Each individual stat can be enhanced up to Rank 10.
        • The higher the level of the Main Stat, the more Sol Erda Fragments will be needed for each subsequent enhancement.
        • The higher the level of the Main Stat, the more stats are granted.
      • Once Hexa Stat Node has been enhanced to Rank 20, the enhancement can be saved. Though, be mindful of the following rules:
        • Certain functions, such as enhancing or resetting, will be disabled for saved nodes
        • You can select one node that has been enhanced or a saved node to apply to a character
        • If you attempt to save when there is already a saved node, the previously saved node information will be replaced
      • Once Hexa Stat Node has been enhanced to Rank 10, its stat level can be reset using mesos. Hexa Stat Node rank and each individual stat level will reset to 0 afterward.
      • You can also use mesos to reset the type of stats set on the Hexa Stat Node.
      • The meso prices for changing stat type and resetting stat level on your Hexa Stat Node are the following:
        • Stat Type Change: 100 million mesos
