To activate the Black Flame Dragoness in Era of Celestials, obtain her dedicated activation token from event rewards, open the companion interface, select the Sprite tab, and tap Activate. Unlocking her grants an immediate Battle Rating (BR) boost and adds permanent passive stats to your character.
Requirements to Unlock
Unlike standard sprites that assemble from shard drops in daily dungeons, high-tier sprites like the Black Flame Dragoness require a complete activation token.
- Acquisition source: Obtain the activation token or summoning card through limited-time holiday events, server festival milestones, or elite lucky spin exchanges.
- Inventory check: Ensure the token is in your main bag before attempting activation. If you recently claimed it from an event, retrieve it from your account mail first.
Step-by-Step Activation
Follow these steps once the token is in your inventory:
- Tap the Companion icon on the main screen HUD.
- Select the Sprite tab from the companion sub-menus.
- Scroll through the sprite list and select the Black Flame Dragoness portrait.
- Tap the glowing Activate button beneath the 3D model preview to consume the token.
- Tap Deploy (or Follow) if you want her to fight alongside your character in active combat.
Even if you choose not to deploy her immediately, activating her binds permanent attribute bonuses directly to your character's overall profile.
Stat Bonuses and Combat Role
The Black Flame Dragoness functions primarily as an offensive area-of-effect (AoE) damage companion. Her combat skills unleash fire-based attacks to clear clustered mob waves in timed trials and dungeons.
| Stat | Combat Role | Primary Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Attack (ATK) | Offensive output | Increases burst damage during timed boss encounters |
| HP | Durability | Raises survivability against wide area-of-effect strikes |
| Defense (DEF) | Damage mitigation | Reduces incoming physical and elemental damage |
| Critical Hit Rate | Damage scaling | Increases the frequency of high-damage critical strikes |
Post-Activation Upgrades
After activating the sprite, further enhance her combat efficiency through two progression paths:
- Sprite EXP Fruit: Feed daily EXP fruits—obtained from companion expeditions and resource stages—to level her up. Each level grants flat increases to her base Attack, Defense, and HP bonuses.
- Star-Up Shards: Collect duplicate shards or evolution gems to increase her star rank. Advancing star tiers lowers her skill cooldowns, unlocks secondary passive traits, and adds percentage-based combat stat multipliers.
When to Deploy
Deploy the Black Flame Dragoness when your priority is maximizing damage output, such as in World Boss scoring stages, timed raid checks, or wave-based trials like the Dark Ruins.
If you are running high-difficulty survival content or player-versus-player modes where your hero needs sustained healing or defensive mitigation, you can keep a defensive sprite deployed instead. The Black Flame Dragoness will continue providing her catalog stat bonuses to your character from reserve.
