Blue Protocol: Star Resonance Stunt Battle Imagine Selection Box Guide
The second day of Blue Protocol: Star Resonance sign-in rewards gives you something special — the Stunt Battle Imagine Selection Box. This box lets you choose one of several free Battle Imagines to equip, each providing different buffs and effects. Deciding which one to pick can be tricky, especially since each class benefits differently. This guide breaks down how each option works, which one suits your class, and why dismantling it might actually be the smarter move in the long run.
What the Battle Imagine Does
Battle Imagines are equippable companions that enhance your combat stats. Each one grants passive bonuses such as increased special attack damage or healing power, and an active bonus that temporarily boosts your performance when used in battle. From the selection box, you can choose among:
- The Boar (Stunt Battle Board) – Increases special attack damage and healing bonus, then grants an additional special attack boost when used.
- Shadow Captain – Increases Expertise Skill Damage and healing by 6%, and further improves expertise skill damage upon activation.
- Mighty Colossus – Boosts resilience break efficiency by 10%, allowing tanks to break enemy guards faster.
Each serves a different purpose depending on your class.
Special Attack vs. Expertise Skills
Understanding these two mechanics helps you decide:
- Special Attacks are your class identity abilities — the signature skills located at the top of your hotbar (basic, special, and ultimate).
- Expertise Skills, found below, are your class’s additional active abilities and usually scale with specific attributes like attack or healing.
For example, Shadow Captain is excellent for Lifebind healers because it enhances both healing and Expertise-based skills. Tanks, on the other hand, gain more from Mighty Colossus since it improves break efficiency during defense phases.
The Hidden Fourth Option — Dismantling for Progression
Interestingly, you’re not limited to just using one of the three Imagines. You can dismantle your chosen Imagine to gain Stunt Wheel Fragments, which are valuable crafting materials used to exchange for higher-tier Imagines later. Here’s how it works:
- Select one Imagine (for example, the Boar).
- Instead of equipping it, dismantle it at the Imagine menu.
- You’ll receive Stunt Wheel Fragments and materials.
- Save those fragments for the Battle Wheel Exchange, where you can trade them for better DPS Imagines like Muku Scout — one of the best in the game.
This process can speed up your route to top-tier Imagines without waiting for rare drops.
Which Battle Imagine Should You Choose?
Your best option depends on your class and build goals:
- DPS Classes (Marksman, Moonstrike, Idol, etc.): Dismantle the free options and save materials for Muku Scout or Bandit Leader, both considered top-tier damage Imagines.
- Healers (Lifebind): Shadow Captain is a strong choice for early healing builds, but you can still dismantle it later once you get higher-rarity gold Imagines.
- Tanks: Mighty Colossus is useful early on for breaking enemy defenses, but again, you can dismantle it later for better materials.
Since you’ll get three total selection boxes (from sign-in, handbook, and quests), you can experiment early, then dismantle the rest for long-term progress.
If you’re unsure which class you’ll stick with, it’s better to save your box until you’re certain. Dismantling or opening it is irreversible, so wait until your build direction is clear.
You can also dismantle the tutorial Imagine from Arona for fragments, skipping its quest entirely if you prefer faster progression — but only do this if you’re confident you won’t need it later.
The Stunt Battle Imagine BOX might look like a simple early-game reward, but it’s actually a key tool for shaping your progression in Blue Protocol: Star Resonance. Whether you choose to keep it for early strength or dismantle it for materials, your decision will impact how fast you reach your ideal loadout.
If you want to min-max your build, check class-specific guides from communities like Prywin, which provide detailed Imagine recommendations. But for most players, the best move is clear — use your early boxes smartly, dismantle strategically, and aim for Muku Scout, the true powerhouse Imagine for almost every class.
