Before you start
- Historical Steam Early Access v0.7.6 rules; later builds and version 1.0 require their own applicability check.
Count qualifying elements, not total levels
Inspect the Elemental Force levels in your current run. One level-4 element counts as one qualifying element; it does not satisfy a requirement for two different elements. Two known level-2 elements satisfy the documented threshold. An unknown second level leaves the result unresolved.
| Example reported state | Threshold result |
|---|---|
| Fire 2, Water 2; never equipped a Duo | Two different qualifying elements |
| Fire 4; every other element below 2 | Only one qualifying element |
| Fire 2; other levels unknown | Confirm another element before concluding |

Eligible does not guarantee the next offered card
The developer places Duo appearances at Ratakaruta selection once the threshold is met. The note does not provide selection probabilities or a guaranteed route to a named Duo. The checker on the linked Episode 2 guide reports eligibility only; it cannot promise a drop or rank the strongest synergy.

Check whether a Duo is already equipped
The source ties the stop in further Duo appearances to equipping a Duo. Merely knowing that a card was acquired is not the same input. Check whether a Duo is currently equipped or was equipped earlier in this run before diagnosing a missing choice. The notes do not establish whether removing one restores choices, so that case stays unknown rather than being treated as ready.

Older effect descriptions can change independently
v0.7.10 temporarily changed how Ice Blight’s HP reduction was classified: effects triggered by taking damage would no longer apply to it. A promise to restore previous behavior is not evidence that restoration has shipped. Check an applicable later note before using an old interaction as a build recommendation.
