Cloud is a Chapter 1 Sanctum Vision found southwest of Cavern of Swords in Grandshelt. Inspect the Sanctum crystal, finish the conversation and confirm the acquisition notification. Current acquisition guides report that the dialogue answers do not block Cloud, so there is no required “correct” answer sequence.
Is Cloud a good early Vision?
Cloud is classified as a Breaker and arrives early enough to support Chapter 1 Stagger play. The reviewed build records pair him with Lasswell because Cloud supplies physical Stagger tools, critical-hit support and a later Critical Stagger Mastery route. That is a role-based starting point, not a universal highest-damage ranking.
How much MRP does Cloud need?
Cloud reaches Mastery Rank 9 at 4,195 cumulative MRP. The complete table below shows every threshold and AP cost, including the cross-checked Spirit bundle, so the page does not reduce “best build” to the final rank alone.
