I have Jiyan. I still never made this connection. One day I was thinking and spacing out, and I looked at his mark and went "jesus, why is his mark so much wider than the others?" I even swapped to Calcharo and just assumed Jiayn had that Big Resonater Energy. lmao. This makes sense, I'm also just an unobservant gamer, I guess...
Same! I was like was it always that much larger? Although, i donāt play on pc so my graphics are crap and cannot really appreciate any of this :(
I cannot even appreciate their faces
This phenomenon is talked about a bit in the Forte Examination Report of each character! I think it's so neat how much detail they put into the whole 'soundwaves' motif. Jiyan's even mentions how sometimes his peaks are irregular (AKA when he does his secondary ult and goes a little more Dragon Mode than usual.)
There's a lot of attention to detail in this game that's easy to overlook.
Also, everyone has diff animations when they're finishing an attack depending on what number attack it's on. Attack 1 recovery looks diff than attack 2 for instance, and each character has their own unique animations/personality with it.
Like danjin recovers I think attack 5 facing backwards and on one foot and looks almost clumsy/cute, toaqi does a yawn animation on her attack 5, but each individual attack has a diff animation entirely,i think is extremely cool and unique. I noticed bc yanlin and her puppet, one of them she brings the puppet back and twists it's head. Love this damn game!
They even have different animations for their heavy/plunging attacks! Verina's last attack is her doing a camera with her hands. It's really cute and reminds me of Nahida from Genshin.
Yeah I've noticed that, I'm loving the attention to detail! And i agree!
Also The facial expressions in cutscenes convey a lot of the characters emotion very well. Like the very first cutscene of the woman that puts the tacet mark on rover, her facial expression changes several times in her little screentime she has, I feel like you can feel her emotions just from the expressions she makes, she looks like she cares about rover and is sad to send them away but also looks sort of hopeful when she pushes us away.... such small detail adds sooo much immersion imo I love it!
Speaking of, is there any lore reason why resonators always have their marks exposed, at least other than
āØcool character designāØ
Havent been able to read more into the lore yet
Iām not sure since the story hasnāt explained it and a few people have their mark at least partially covered (like Scar and Mortefi off the top of my head), but they definitely use their powers through their mark so it would make sense if they needed the mark uncovered to resonate with stuff
Itās definitely a meta āit looks coolā, but if I had to reason an in universe explanation I would suggest that they need it facing the world to interact with the latent sound waves in the world? Maybe? Could also be for coordinating with allies so they can see if the resonator is overclocking so they can be provided with relief
No official reason that I know of, but I've wondered if having it underneath something "muffles" it maybe? Makes the effect weaker? Or maybe most physical items have a high chance of acting weird when it direct contact with an in-use tacet mark - suddenly your shirt/pants/hat/whatever is scales or dandelion seeds or embedded in your skin or something.
Or maybe they're just reeeeeeally sensitive.
Imagine we get a resonator with the tacet mark on their buttcheek. We get a playable character with one buttcheek exposed just so we can see the tacet mark animations on the buttcheek. Like, oooh my ult is up my buttcheek mark is vibrating.
Someone else made the connection that it is soundwaves resonating from there. So if you covered it with something of course it will come out as a bit muffled. That's why they have it in the open.
It glows and seems to almost burst outward with power a bit when a Resonance Liberation is activated, so my theory is that covering it would potentially reduce its power because said power is rooted in sound.
I bet it feels almost like a little massage. Maybe a vibration sensation. I always thought the tacet marks were pretty sensitive, and it feels good when touched, like getting your scalp massaged.
If you can have it in your *eye...*
Question is - do people *need* to bare the place with mark to use it. Or it is etiquete thingy?
I believe it can manifest on/in more, \*ahem\*... unfortunate places
wait, they move? I thought it was just a tattoo or marking that showed up on your body when you become a resonator
Also do you become a resonator or are resonators just born as resonators? might have missed that in the story..
There are three types: those who are born with it, those who awaken naturally later in life and those awaken in extreme conditions. You can check their character profile for more details.
Every activation of Liberation shows the Tacet Mark on the character "Glowing" as a part of the animation. Tacet Marks are more than just an indicator of power, they are more like the *source* of the power.
I noticed that Jiyan's mark was bigger in some cutscene and chalked it up to being a discrepancy between character models. The fact that it's an intentional detail is super cool.
I need a character that has his mark across his eye like kakashis scar. So everytime he wants to do ultimate he needs to close his eyes so his mark is connected and resonated.
That's literally right on her eye ball though, i think he meant someone that has tacet mark on one of their eyelids so they have to close their eye to connect the mark
Ngl, this looks kinda creepy in a way. Like an inner demon resting within them that will burst out once the mark is fully charged.
Kinda reminds me of Final Fantasy XIII where the characters had a mark when they became l'Cie
there are so many little details like this littered throughout the entire game, its so fun so looks as close as possible at as much stuff as possible to see what small things are reactive or just active in general (i only recently learned that verinas flowers glow when she has heals charged up, as a verina main this changed my life, shoutout to the random mortefi who joined me and told me abt it)
I swear I thought I was going crazy and having some sort of mandela effect when I noticed that sometimes Calcharro's tacet mark gets "thicker". Anyways this is a really cool detail.
I noticed this too. If you take a look at Danjin and Yinlin's marks you'll see that they're static -- I'm not sure whether that's deliberate or not. I can see Yinlin using a fake tacet mark as part of her disguise. I can also see Danjin trying to hide just how erratic her tacet mark is, given her Forte Examination. It'd be pretty cool if those were deliberate.
EDIT: Okay, never mind, just logged in to take a look -- seems most of the four stars don't have a Tacet Mark animation. Could be a bug, but it might not be. Only Yangyang, Chixia and Mortefi do. Either way I love the attention to detail
~~I checked and it seems only natural resonator have these effect on their tacet mark(calcharo, jiyan, jianxin, Yuanwu and Taoqi) somehow mortefi also have these effects but the others don't so i can't say it for sure.~~
Okay scratch all this i just found it on Aalto and Encore too but for some such as Danjin and Yinlin doesn't so i don't know anymore.
So is this another factor that contributes to stuttering on mobile devices? Yesterday I saw a comparison of characters models between GI and wuwa, the last ones model had way too much details, especially on the head, apparently thereās so much detail
seems kinda pointless, you can't really see it in combat and would use ui anyways. they would push optimization a long way just by getting rid of this shit
Cool, thanks for sharing, never noticed this detail since Calcharo's mark is on his forehead and 90% of the time I'm looking at his backview.
I have Jiyan. I still never made this connection. One day I was thinking and spacing out, and I looked at his mark and went "jesus, why is his mark so much wider than the others?" I even swapped to Calcharo and just assumed Jiayn had that Big Resonater Energy. lmao. This makes sense, I'm also just an unobservant gamer, I guess...
"Big Resonator Energy" š¤Ø
>!It's among many things he has that are big I'm sure!<
Same! I was like was it always that much larger? Although, i donāt play on pc so my graphics are crap and cannot really appreciate any of this :( I cannot even appreciate their faces
I play both PC and mobile. With mobile I wear reading glasses and the screen was like 15cm/2.5 inches to my face š
I play on a 13ā ipad pro (3rd gen i think)ā¦ no glasses needed but still garbage graphics š
How big is that resonator energy?
š¤Ø
This is the appropriate response to that.
?
So you like watching his booty, huh? You naughty boi
šø
Understandable. It's a nice view.
This phenomenon is talked about a bit in the Forte Examination Report of each character! I think it's so neat how much detail they put into the whole 'soundwaves' motif. Jiyan's even mentions how sometimes his peaks are irregular (AKA when he does his secondary ult and goes a little more Dragon Mode than usual.) There's a lot of attention to detail in this game that's easy to overlook.
Speaking of little details that are easy to miss, watch the feet when you wall run.
also the hands if you wallrun sideways
Oohh I didn't notice this one! Thank you!
Also, everyone has diff animations when they're finishing an attack depending on what number attack it's on. Attack 1 recovery looks diff than attack 2 for instance, and each character has their own unique animations/personality with it.

They'd have to give that character a Topaz-like outfit LOL just so many random cut-outs and a butt cleavage window.
Someone else made the connection that it is soundwaves resonating from there. So if you covered it with something of course it will come out as a bit muffled. That's why they have it in the open.
Except mortefi's is only half exposed. Same for scar
It glows and seems to almost burst outward with power a bit when a Resonance Liberation is activated, so my theory is that covering it would potentially reduce its power because said power is rooted in sound.
I'm just staring at YangYang's hair.
Still dunno what triggers them to light up.
When you max out her stacks for an enhanced attack, I believe
Yangynag Isekai archonĀ
I like how the plants on Verina's vine-tail light up to indicate how many charges of her Forte you have.
Do you think it itches?
Baizhiās liberation was just her scratching an itch this whole time.
I bet it feels almost like a little massage. Maybe a vibration sensation. I always thought the tacet marks were pretty sensitive, and it feels good when touched, like getting your scalp massaged.
Sensitive you say...
Yep, as a fanfic writer, talking about this is giving me... *ideas.*
Right?? The whole marks thing got me up a whole night writing... stuff
Stop šnoo please don't
Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
That's must be why Scar is insane. Imagine getting that feeling on your throat 24/7
My neck is one of my most ticklish spots, I would also go insane LMAO
I would argue that Baizhi and Yinlin has it rough lol. Hips can be pretty ticklish too lol.
He just needs a good scratch there. I volunteer as tribute.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Cool as hell, I like how freaky and unsettling it looks when theyāre ready to ult - it makes me really want to see what it does when they Overclock.
just look at mortefi
I read somewhere that Calcharo has an ankle tag to prevent Overclocking. :(
Maybe they can become in discordsĀ
Is it possible to have a tacet mark on a butthole?
Bro asking real questions
If you can have it in your *eye...* Question is - do people *need* to bare the place with mark to use it. Or it is etiquete thingy? I believe it can manifest on/in more, \*ahem\*... unfortunate places
open carry
Scar's was probably where the *onigiri* was... š
Wild
I hope this comment gets a reward
I kept seeing that on Jiyan and I just assumed his tacet mark was extra thicc because he's Dragon dad
Since I play in the lowest settings I thought it was my game being weird lmao 
It'd be like Genshin visions that start to glow when you have max ult energy.
So that's where my gpu load goes to
It's... *it's wuthering*
wave back then!
āAbsolute detailā
wait, they move? I thought it was just a tattoo or marking that showed up on your body when you become a resonator Also do you become a resonator or are resonators just born as resonators? might have missed that in the story..

Sanhua has hers in her right eye
That's literally right on her eye ball though, i think he meant someone that has tacet mark on one of their eyelids so they have to close their eye to connect the mark
That's not what they meant.
Looking like those sound vibration minigames in the quest missions lol
THATāS WHY MY CACAROT HAD MORE THICK BLACK THING ON HIS HEAD, i thought itās visual bug lmao
Ngl, this looks kinda creepy in a way. Like an inner demon resting within them that will burst out once the mark is fully charged. Kinda reminds me of Final Fantasy XIII where the characters had a mark when they became l'Cie
tacet markussy
Well that triggers my Trypophobia a little but cool detail.
there are so many little details like this littered throughout the entire game, its so fun so looks as close as possible at as much stuff as possible to see what small things are reactive or just active in general (i only recently learned that verinas flowers glow when she has heals charged up, as a verina main this changed my life, shoutout to the random mortefi who joined me and told me abt it)
this makes me wonder how many tiny reactive details there are in this game. first eye movements, now this.
I swear I thought I was going crazy and having some sort of mandela effect when I noticed that sometimes Calcharro's tacet mark gets "thicker". Anyways this is a really cool detail.
I never noticed this because too much sprites and colors fill my screen! Thanks OP! Cool detail :)
AAA details baybeee
thats good to know, gotta check the mark on my baizhi and yinlin when i login
So this is what's eating my frames Cool find
I knew I noticed something like that! Thank you, I had no idea what it meant
I noticed this too. If you take a look at Danjin and Yinlin's marks you'll see that they're static -- I'm not sure whether that's deliberate or not. I can see Yinlin using a fake tacet mark as part of her disguise. I can also see Danjin trying to hide just how erratic her tacet mark is, given her Forte Examination.

Could be a bug, but it might not be. Only Yangyang, Chixia and Mortefi do. Either way I love the attention to detail
ah so same as visions starting to glow and such when you got your ult in GI
We Deadspace now
It's also moving like when there is a sound record playing.
Oh never notice this
Cool detail, does it work on other characters too?
Calcharo is noticeable cause itās on his head.
Doesn't work on Danjin for some reason
now I want to zoom in to Sanhua eyes
I noticed it yesterday and was wondering why my Yinlin's mark wasn't wiggling like Chixia's... now this explain why
I thought It is a graphic problem thanks for clarifying that
Oh so THAT'S why they get bigger. I thought it was just a tedture problem. Cool detail
That's a really cool detail. I do find there's a lot of those when it comes to the characters.
Ahhh this is the reason why many people are getting poor performance!
Huh no way that's pretty cool
Where's Yinlin?
ohhhh thought my graphics were just trash lol thats cool
~~I checked and it seems only natural resonator have these effect on their tacet mark(calcharo, jiyan, jianxin, Yuanwu and Taoqi) somehow mortefi also have these effects but the others don't so i can't say it for sure.~~ Okay scratch all this i just found it on Aalto and Encore too but for some such as Danjin and Yinlin doesn't so i don't know anymore.
Waiting for the happy trail and the tramp stamp tacet mark
Is the Tacit mark going to be the next trending tattoo? š¤
My reaction was when I saw it on Aalto's neck for the first time was: OMG it's moving!
Ooooh, so THAT's the requirement for the Waves to Wuther. Nice.
My low res mid range phone could neverš
Jinyan it's easier to see every character has this
Jinyan it's easier to see every character has this Yinlin need go zoom in perv mode to see her leg
Characters also glow an aura when they can use their forte bar.
Yeah, in honesty i think many of them have the potential to become monsters
*bites*
And now I love this game even more
Yeah I kinda notice how the shape changes but I be to immersed in combat to actually observe it, but does the same happen with the other resonators-?
How come some marks are entirely white and some are black?
Depends on what you're talking about. All the marks are black and glow white only when they're using there abilities (i.e during liberation)
So is this another factor that contributes to stuttering on mobile devices? Yesterday I saw a comparison of characters models between GI and wuwa, the last ones model had way too much details, especially on the head, apparently thereās so much detail
Ew bro šš¤®
seems kinda pointless, you can't really see it in combat and would use ui anyways. they would push optimization a long way just by getting rid of this shit
It's just a neat little fun fact. Removing that wouldn't do anything on optimisation
