Dear Proxy, if you’re reading this in 2026, pull up a chair. I’m about to tell you about a W-Engine Channel from 2024 that still lives rent-free in my head: Dissonant Sonata. It featured the limited S-Rank W-Engine Riot Suppressor Mark VI (Attack), and let me tell you, the reception rate was boosted like someone slipped the gacha gods a Red Bull. 🎸⚡
Back then, the event ran from 2024/7/24 12:00:00 to 2024/8/13 14:59:59 server time. That’s three weeks of pure, unfiltered banner anxiety. During the event, the limited S-Rank W-Engine Riot Suppressor Mark VI (Attack) had a significantly boosted Reception Rate. The A-Rank W-Engines The Vault (Support) and Big Cylinder (Defense) were also in the mix. So if you were hoping for a support or defense W-Engine, you had a decent shot—maybe too decent, if you catch my drift. 😅
Here’s the quick and dirty breakdown:
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Channel | Dissonant Sonata (W-Engine Channel) |
| Boosted S-Rank | Riot Suppressor Mark VI (Attack) |
| Boosted A-Ranks | The Vault (Support), Big Cylinder (Defense) |
| Duration | 2024/7/24 12:00:00 – 2024/8/13 14:59:59 (server time) |
| Stable Channel? | Nope, limited S-Rank won’t appear in Star-Studded Cast Stable Channel |
| Pity System | Search count cumulative across all W-Engine Channels, independent of other channel types |
Now, a word to the wise: this was a W-Engine Channel, not an Agent Channel. The pity count for guaranteed Signals was cumulative across all W-Engine Channels, but it was independent of and unaffected by other types of Channels. Translation: your Agent banner pity did diddly-squat here. I learned that the hard way after dumping 40 pulls into Dissonant Sonata and then wondering why my Agent banner still said ‘no guarantee.’ Oof. 🤦♂️
I remember the first ten-pull. I got Big Cylinder. Then another Big Cylinder. Then The Vault. Then another Big Cylinder. The game was basically telling me, ‘You want attack? Here’s some defense and support, champ.’ I was malding. But eventually, after enough pulls to make a whale blush, Riot Suppressor Mark VI came home. I screamed so loud my neighbor thought I’d won the lottery. No cap. 🎉
In 2026, the meta has shifted. Newer W-Engines have arrived, power creep is real, and the idea of a 2024 Attack W-Engine being top-tier might sound sus to fresh Proxies. But here’s the thing: Riot Suppressor Mark VI still slaps on the right Attack agents. It’s not just a nostalgia pick. It’s a solid stat stick with a passive that can put in work. Is it the absolute best in 2026? Probably not. But if you already have it, you’re not bricked. You’re chilling. 😎
If you missed the Dissonant Sonata event, don’t panic. Limited S-Rank W-Engines sometimes come back in reruns, though they won’t show up in the Star-Studded Cast Stable Channel. So keep your eyes peeled on future W-Engine Channels. And please, for the love of all that is holy, check the Details button at the bottom-left of the Search page before you pull. It tells you exactly how the pity works. I know reading is hard when you’re hyped, but trust me, it saves polychromes. 📝
My final advice for 2026 Proxies: treat W-Engine banners like a spicy tuna roll. They’re tasty, but if you go in without a plan, you’ll end up with a mouth full of wasabi and regret. Set a budget. Know your pity. Don’t chase A-Ranks if you only want the S-Rank. And remember: the gacha gods are fickle. One day you’re getting Riot Suppressor Mark VI in 20 pulls, the next you’re getting five Big Cylinders and a partridge in a pear tree. 🎄
So here’s to Dissonant Sonata, the little W-Engine Channel that could. It gave us Riot Suppressor Mark VI, The Vault, and Big Cylinder. It taught me about cumulative pity. It made me question my life choices. And in 2026, it’s still a fun memory—and a decent W-Engine if you happen to have it. Stay safe, Proxy. May your crit rolls be high and your 50/50s be wins. GG. ✌️
