The Damage Absorption Piercer Latent Awakening was added to Puzzles and Dragons North America in Version 18.5.2. Cards with the Damage Absorption Piercer Latent equipped will enable the owning card to bypass the Damage Absorption dungeon mechanic.
Latent Requirements
There are only 2 requirements to make a card eligible for equipping the Damage Absorption Piercer Latent.
First, the latent will use 6 Latent Awakening slots. If the card does not have 6 available Latents, the player will choose which Latents to remove during the fusion process.
Second, Puzzles and Dragons cards with the Combo Orb awakening are eligible to use the Damage Absorption Latent.
However, any card can be made eligible by equipping a Weapon Assist that has the Combo Orb awakening. These cards will be able to take advantage of the Damage Absorption Piercer Latent as long as they have a Weapon Assist with a Combo Orb. Also, the Latent will stop working if the Weapon Assist is removed.
