One of the Espers that players can procure in Dislyte is Jacob, however, it is advised that they only use him during the early stages of the game.
Players are invited to fight alongside heroes with extraordinary powers in an urban, mythology-themed universe. Regrettably, this universe was invaded by powerful enemies, so ordinary people became god-like beings to defeat the monsters.
In these dark times, it is your responsibility to form squads that can fight to restore peace and harmony to the world.
The game is set in the near future, and it offers players elegant content with wonderfully illustrated storylines of Espers – which are essentially the heroes of the game.
Espers take on various appearances and personalities, because they all received their abilities from gods of worldwide mythologies.
How to procure an Esper
Espers can be acquired using various methods, but the most commonly used way is through the gacha system, which is called Echo.
The gacha system is the summoning system by which players are able to summon varying rarities of heroes using different summoning currencies that can be earned as gamers advance in the game.
The following table highlights the banners with a description of each:
| Banner | Description |
Beginner’s benefits banner |
You can summon a hero of between 3-stars and 5-stars, but only for a maximum of 10 times at the beginning of the game. Players are guaranteed to summon a legendary Esper. |
Normal summoning banner |
Players are able to summon a hero of between 3-star and 5-stars from this banner and it does not have an expiration date. |
Rate-up summoning banner |
You can summon an Esper of between 3-stars and 5-stars, but the specific rate-up hero has a higher chance of being summoned. This banner is usually active for a limited time. |
Dislyte: Jacob
One of the Espers that players can summon through Echo is Jacob; a drowsy, tired figure that has a lot in common with Jormungand, the sleeping serpent. His new serpentine nature is capable of delivering a deadly poisonous payload.
Gamers should note that he is resistant to poison debuffs and can inflict control debuffs on enemies who are already under its influence. Jacob is an Epic Esper that specialises in disabling enemies, and he possesses the wind element.
Similarly to other heroes in the game, Jacob contains a range of statistics. These statistics can be improved as he reaches new levels in the game. Jacob’s base statistics are as follows:
| Statistic | Amount |
| Base attack | 993 |
| Base health | 12 532 |
| Base defence | 925 |
| Base speed | 98 |
It is advised that players use Jacob during the early stages of the game, but they should upgrade to a better Esper when they are reaching mid and endgame content.
Jacob’s skills
Jacob received his skills and abilities from the sleeping serpent, Jormungand, as previously stated. The following table lists Jacob’s skills and describes each one as follows:
| Skill | Description |
Dust to Dust |
Jacob deals damage to every enemy equal to 120 percent of attack, with an 80 percent chance of inflicting Poison for 2 turns. This skill has a cooldown of 4 turns. |
Entoxification |
This skill grants a Fangs buff to all allies for 3 turns, during which they receive damage that has a 70 percent chance of inflicting Poison on the attacker. All allies are immune to poison. |
Serpentine |
Jacob deals damage to an enemy equal to 120 percent of the attack, with an 80 percent chance of inflicting Poison for 2 turns. |
Recommended gear sets
As you advance in the game, you will receive various gear sets with which you can equip your Espers to make them more powerful. Though gamers can equip Jacob with any set, it is recommended that they use the following gear sets:
| Set number | Name | Description |
| 1 | Ocean Waves (4 pieces) | It grants a 30 percent chance of reducing all ability cooldowns by 1 turn after the ability is used |
| Apollo’s Bow (2 pieces) | It increases Jacob’s ‘ACC’ by 25 percent. | |
| 2 | Wind Walker (4 pieces) | This set increases Jacob’s speed by 25 percent. |
| Apollo’s Bow (2 pieces) | It increases Jacob’s ‘ACC’ by 25 percent. |
Can Jacob be improved?
There are numerous methods you can use to improve Jacob’s skills and statistics, such as increasing his level, completing the ascension progress, and initiating resonance. Furthermore, you can also promote him, enhance his abilities, and equip him with relics.
Since Jacob is one of the best starter heroes, it is advisable that players do not invest too many resources and too much attention into improving him. This is because there are other heroes that will perform better in mid and endgame content.
Final thoughts
Dislyte invites gamers to fight alongside beautifully illustrated heroes with incredible powers in a mythology-themed world. Unfortunately, this world was invaded by an enemy race, so it is your responsibility to form teams comprising different Espers to return peace to the world.
One of the Espers you can obtain through the gacha system is Jacob, who received his powers from the sleeping serpent, Jormungand. Jacob performs best during the early stages of the game, but players will either have to replace or upgrade him to complete mid and endgame content.
