Are Simulacra just skins in Tower of Fantasy?

While Tower of Fantasy may have a robust character creation system, players will quickly find that as they acquire SR and SSR weapons, they have the option of transforming into different characters.

What are Simulacra in Tower of Fantasy?

Simulacra are AI renderings of the weapons obtained as you play. Essentially, they are skins attached to the weapons. You can use the skin once you acquire the weapon, and once three of the same weapon are acquired, an alternate skin will unlock. However, Simulacra do have unique passive abilities, otherwise known as Traits. These are unlocked through Awakening, which is simply giving them gifts.
