==Mission Synthesis==
[[File:MissionSynthesis.png|thumb|The Mission Synthesis Screen]]
Mission Synthesis is the primary way of customizing and obtaining Infinity Missions.

To Synthesis infinity missions, the player needs to pick two missions: the first mission chosen is the '''Base Mission''', and the second mission chosen is the '''Plus Mission.''' Both Missions must have the adequate amount of Synthesis points.

The attributes of the new mission is determined as follows:

'''Boss:''' Same as the '''Plus Mission'''<nowiki/>'s Boss.

'''Enemy Table 1:''' Randomly selected from the Enemy Table 1 of either mission.

'''Enemy Table 2:''' Randomly selected from the remaining Enemy Table 1 and the Enemy Table 2 of either mission. It's more likely to pick the remaining Table 1. Will not pick the same table as the picked Table 1.

'''Enemy Level:''' The average enemy levels of both missions, and then either increased by a random number between -10 and +10. The final result has a minimum of +1, and a maximum of +49.

'''Blocks:''' Randomly selected from the Block count of either mission.

'''Area:''' Same as the '''Base Mission'''<nowiki/>'s Area.

'''Code Level:''' Automatically determined by the '''Enemy Level''' and the '''Special''' attached.

'''Special:''' 

The special effects on the new mission is determined via the following steps:

# The special effects from both missions are combined into one pool, dubbed the '''Potential Effects.'''
# If there are more than 7 effects on the '''Potential Effects''' pool (including duplicates), 1 random Lv1 special effect is added into the pool. If there are 9 or more, 2 random Lv1 special effects is added into the pool.
# Conflicting Special Effects are removed: '''Weapon: Attribute Rate''' and '''Shield-weave: Attribute Rate''' that has affects different attributes conflict with one another, and one is randomly removed, while the other one is kept.
# If there are two special effects with the same type (i.e. 2 '''Drop Rate +'''s): If they are different levels, only the lower one is kept. If they are the same level, the two has a chance of being combined, and getting their levels increased.
# After all eliminations from '''Potential Effects''' pool is done, a number of special effects is chosen from the pool and applied to the new mission. The number of effects chosen is equal to the size of the left over '''Potential Effects''' pool, divided by 2, and then increased by 1. This number also maxes out at 5.
# The effects chosen prioritizes the lowest level special effects; If there are still room for special effects left after choosing all present lowest level special effects, effects are randomly removed from the pool (the highest level special effects are removed first) until the room fits the effects left.
Unfortunately, if neither of the missions have any effects, no effects will be present on the result mission.

After a Synthesis, the new mission is added to the list of Infinity Missions. The two component missions are not consumed as the result of a Synthesis.

It's possible to Synthesis using the same two missions as many times as the player would like; '''however, the result mission will always be the same, including special effects, enemy tables, area counts, and etc.'''

===Synthesis Points===
Synthesis points are required to synthesis Infinity Missions. Synthesis points are accumlated per Infinity Mission, and is gained by clearing it. The amount of points accumlated are dependent on the difficulty of the mission:

|-
|C
|10
|-
|B
|20
|-
|A
|40
|-
|S
|60
|-
|∞
|80
|}
The amount of points required for a synthesis is equal to '''Code Level times 10'''. An Infinity Mission with Code Level 12 will cost 120 Synthesis points per Synthesis. Both material missions must have sufficient synthesis points in order to conduct the synthesis.

|Since the two effects are conflicted, one of the effects, '''Weapon Earth +''', is randomly removed, and the other, '''Weapon Dark +''' is kept. Because the effects are removed prior to the combine step, the effects are not upgraded despite being the same rank. There are 1 effect left afterwards, '''Weapon Dark +.''' 1 of them (1/2+1 = 1) is randomly chosen and applied to the result mission.

Note that the '''Base Mission''' has a '''Code Level''' of 6, and the '''Plus Mission''' has a '''Code Level''' of 13, which requires 60 and 130 Synthesis points respectively to perform this synthesis.

|Since there are 8 special effects between these missions (including duplicates), a random lv1 effect is added to the pool (In this case, '''Enemy HP x1.25'''). Then we eliminate the duplicates: '''Attribute +3%''' and '''Attribute +5%''' is the same effect but different levels, and the lower one, '''Attribute +3%''', is kept. Same applies for '''XP+20%''' and '''XP+50%''', and '''XP+20%''' is kept. There are 7 effects left afterwards: '''Weapon Attribute +''', '''Armor Attribute +''', '''XP+''', '''Drop +''', '''Type Points +''', '''Enemy HPx''' and '''Attribute +.''' 4 of them (7/2+1 = 4) is selected and applied to the result mission. When choosing the effects, the lowest leveled effects are chosen first ('''EXP+, Attribute+,''' and '''Enemy HPx'''). Since there's still room for one effect left, and four effects left int the pool, the highest leveled effects is randomly removed first (In this case, '''Weapon Attribute +, Armor Attribute +,''' and '''Type Points+''' are randomly removed), and '''Drops+''' is left attached.

* Note that the '''Base Mission''' has a '''Code Level''' of 10, and the '''Plus Mission''' has a '''Code Level''' of 10, which requires 100 and 100 Synthesis points respectively to perform this synthesis.
