One of the first real decisions Silver Palace hands you is which face the Detective wears. Hugin and Munin are the two appearances of the protagonist — same story, same Gravitas attribute, same 5-star striker kit family — but the beta builds played them differently at the edges. This page compares what each is better at feeling like, and closes with the only advice that matters: build either, pick by feel.
Side by side
| Hugin — The Raven’s Beak | Munin — The Raven’s Claws | |
|---|---|---|
| Rarity | 5★ | 5★ |
| Attribute | Gravitas | Gravitas |
| On-field rhythm | Heavy Charged Attacks, short windows | Full five-hit Basic Attack chains |
| Burst pattern | Frequent swap burst; stronger Tactical Assault entries | Perfect Dodge counters that keep her on-field |
| Better if you want | Hit-and-run impact; trading swaps for damage | Staying in the fight; dodging as offense |
Both rows are CBT2-observed playstyle reads from community guides; the kit skeletons (5★, Gravitas, striker role) are officially confirmed via the beta roster.
What does not change
- The story. Whichever face you pick, the case is the same. The Detective’s profile — rational, observant, driven by the death of a loved one — is shared.
- The attribute. Gravitas in both cases, so Resonance planning that expects a Gravitas striker works either way.
- The investment. Levels, Motive, Implements, and materials go to “the Detective”, not to a skin. Nothing you build is wasted if you swap the appearance later.
How to actually choose
You will not see a stat sheet before you choose, and you should not try to — the difference is rhythm:
- If you like games where you wind up and cash out — charged swings, swap-canceling, letting teammates open the door — take Hugin.
- If you like games where you stay glued to the fight — long combos, dodging through attacks and punishing them — take Munin.
Casual Mode (Settings → Combat) softens either choice while you learn the telegraphs, and the combat basics guide covers the shared loop both kits run on.
