Guides
Sephiria's core loop: descend from the tower-top village Bunnyville into the tower, fight through rooms, collect artifacts and tablets, modify your weapon at the Anvil, enhance artifacts through Enchantment, defeat bosses, and spend the progression currency on the Destiny Inscription for permanent upgrades. Start by mastering one weapon family, prioritizing survival over damage, and learning enemy patterns before committing to aggressive plays.

Sephiria has six weapon families, each with its own range, pace, and trade-offs. These pages explain each one's loop without inventing stats or official rankings.

Sephiria has six weapon families: Sword and Shield (defensive), Greatsword (slow, heavy hits), Dagger (fast, close-range), Crossbow (ranged), Staff (magic projectiles), and Grimoire (spell rotation). The Steam store describes each weapon family as having more than 50 upgrades. Choose by the combat rhythm you enjoy and the distance you prefer to fight at.

The Destiny Inscription is Sephiria's permanent progression system, unlocked with the progression currency earned from runs. Nodes provide permanent bonuses that carry into future runs. Exact node effects, costs, unlock conditions, layout, and optimal routes should be checked in the current version.

The Steam store confirms Sephiria features more than 10 bosses across six chapters, but TEAM HORAY has not published an official boss list or detailed mechanics. Use a universal method: spend the first cycle observing telegraphs, identify safe punish windows, then commit to damage. This guide covers that method without inventing specific boss patterns.

Sephiria has two progression layers. In-run growth includes character level, artifact and tablet collection, and weapon modifications from the Anvil — all reset after each run. Permanent growth uses progression currency earned from runs to unlock Destiny Inscription nodes in Bunnyville. Exact permanent upgrade priorities are not officially documented.
Read guideBuilds
Each build page covers the core combat loop, strengths, weaknesses, and playstyle fit for its weapon family so you can compare like with like.
Gameplay
Compare reach, safety, control, and combat rhythm across all six weapon families so you can pick the one that solves your problem.
Systems
Treat the permanent progression system as a sequence of decisions. Prioritize the next useful upgrade instead of treating progression as a completion checklist.
