Infusion progression — Level 1–15

Abilities are cumulative. Stabilization is required at Levels 5, 10 and 15 as described on the Infusion System page.

Level	Ability	Type	What it does
1	Echo Sight	Passive	The helmet reads hostile movement as low-level vibration. A threat only grants fresh progression after its detection cooldown, preventing one nearby mob from becoming a passive Infusion farm. Synergy: Later perception abilities increase range, detail and reliability. Controls: Passive — functions while the helmet is worn.
2	Darkness Adaptation	Passive	Sculk-infused lenses continuously adapt to Darkness, preventing the effect from suppressing the wearer's vision while the helmet is equipped. Synergy: Oracle of Silence later maintains deeper low-light perception. Controls: Passive — functions while the helmet is worn.
3	Vibration Sense	Passive	Nearby hostile movement is interpreted as sculk vibration, allowing moving threats to emit short visual traces without exposing exact coordinates. Synergy: Acoustic Focus and Echo Lattice expand the sensing network. Controls: Passive — detects moving hostile creatures nearby.
4	Hidden Pulse	Passive	Invisible creatures and threats behind solid terrain can create intermittent sculk feedback when they disturb the surrounding vibration field. Synergy: Sightless Hearing later improves hidden-threat recognition. Controls: Passive — functions against nearby hidden threats.
5 First Stabilization	Sculk Perception	Active	The helmet combines its early sensing systems into more reliable threat pulses and begins gaining Infusion by successfully reading hostile activity. Synergy: Acoustic Focus, Abyss Survey and later convergence effects expand it. Controls: Passive network upgrade after the First Stabilization.
6	Hunter's Echo	Passive	When the wearer is damaged by a living attacker, the helmet keeps a short-lived vibration trace of that threat and continues indicating its position. Synergy: Threat Memory greatly extends the usefulness of the stored attacker signature. Controls: Passive — triggered after taking damage from a living attacker.
7	Acoustic Focus	Passive	Threat detection range increases as the helmet filters background noise and prioritizes meaningful hostile movement. Synergy: Also increases the effective reach of later active scans. Controls: Passive — expands perception range.
8	Threat Memory	Memory	A recent living attacker is stored as a temporary threat signature, allowing the perception system to continue tracking it for a short time. Synergy: Echo Lattice extends the memory window. Controls: Passive — records the most recent living attacker.
9	Deep Awareness	Passive	Earlier filters are relaxed, allowing the helmet to surface more nearby hostile presences even when their movement or visibility would normally make them difficult to read. Synergy: Predator Sense and Sightless Hearing refine the additional information. Controls: Passive — broadens passive threat sensing.
10 Deep Stabilization	Sonic Mapping	Active	After the Deep Stabilization, holding still while sneaking charges a controlled sonic scan. When released automatically, nearby hostile creatures are briefly outlined and the helmet gains Infusion from the completed survey. Synergy: Echo Lattice and Oracle of Silence reduce cooldown and increase effective range. Controls: Hold Sneak on the ground for about 1.5 seconds.
11	Predator Sense	Passive	Hostile creatures that are actively targeting the wearer produce stronger feedback and can be briefly outlined by the helmet's passive perception network. Synergy: Deep Vibration improves how the rest of the armor reacts to detected danger. Controls: Passive — prioritizes hostile creatures targeting the wearer.
12	Abyss Survey	Passive	The active mapping pulse searches a wider radius and treats the surrounding hostile network as a single deep survey rather than isolated signals. Synergy: Oracle of Silence expands the survey further. Controls: Passive — enhances Sonic Mapping.
13	Sightless Hearing	Passive	The helmet relies less on direct sight and keeps mapped hostile signatures readable for longer, increasing the duration of Sonic Mapping's vibration outline without turning perception into permanent wall vision. Synergy: Echo Lattice improves mapping charge and reach; Oracle of Silence selects one mapped threat for stronger priority feedback. Controls: Passive — enhances Sonic Mapping.
14	Echo Lattice	Synergy	The helmet charges Sonic Mapping faster, extends perception and keeps threat memory responsive as its previously separate sensing systems begin sharing the same vibration lattice. Synergy: Sightless Hearing improves mapped persistence and Oracle of Silence gives the lattice a single priority target. Controls: Passive — connects and refines helmet perception abilities.
15 Harmonic Stabilization	Oracle of Silence	Synergy	When Sonic Mapping activates, Oracle of Silence scores nearby hostile mobs and prioritizes the greatest threat. That target receives a stronger outline and distance-dependent acoustic pings for 6 seconds. Players are never selected, and the capstone uses Sonic Mapping's existing activation cooldown rather than adding a spammable scan. Synergy: Sightless Hearing and Echo Lattice improve the mapping network that supplies Oracle of Silence. Controls: Use Sonic Mapping normally; the priority target is chosen automatically.
