 ∀kashicverse has three different difficulties: ∀dvent, ∀nother, ∀kashic. ∀sterism is an additional toggle for all these modes which changes boss behaviour. ∀sterism gets removed if a continue is used.
-*'''∀dvent''': The easiest of the three difficulties. You unlock this mode after the first continue/ game over (UNCONFIRMED). Enemies fire the same pattern as Another, the main difference between Advent and Another Mode is the strength of the shield.

 In Advent the shield starts at 500%. The shield gauge recovery rate is faster in this mode and you gain more method gauge when grazing. If the player gets hit whilst the shield is not deployed and the player is at 150% or more shield gauge then 250% of the shield gauge gets consumed and the game continues.
