  • Escape Ladder (O) can be used during the first battle each day when the Aether cost to start a battle is 0.
  • At the start of a new season, the number of times Escape Ladder (O) can be used is restored to the maximum.
  • If Escape Ladder (O) is strengthened during a season, then the number of times it can be used that season is restored by 1.
