Does Split Spark require a certain aspect?

[Robot from the future]

Split Spark is a Daedalus upgrade for the Umbral Flames, and is the only one I'm missing for the book of fates reward. However, I cannot seem to get it to appear.

Does anyone know if it only shows up when using a certain aspect?

Thnx.

By the name I guess it's the one that splits the attack in 2 after it hits.

Hope, that one doesn't require anything special. You just have to pray to RNGoddess.

Definetely feels like its bugged. I just did 11 runs in a row - both surface and underworld - with Aspect of Moros - and haven't seen this one once.

Just checked the shade that keeps track of the details of all your runs, and I've completed 36 runs with the Umbral Flames. Every one of those I got 2 Daedalus upgrades and used the Daedalus keep-sake to get a 3rd. So that's 36 (number of completed runs) x 2 (number of Daedalus upgrads per run) x 3 (number of options) + 36 (from keep-sake) = 252 possible times it could have appeared and didn't. Seeing as there's only a total of 10 different upgrades offered, this has to be a bug.

I got it yesterday on the basic unupgraded aspect, was my first time using them.

Can confirm now :) Changed Aspect to Aspect of Mel and got it with the first hammer

Finally got it, however, it took 14 more runs. Having it appear once out of 350 Daedalus options gives it a drop rate of 0.0028% (for me).

The upgrade itself was actually pretty good, but unfortunately after all that I now hate the weapon and will probably never use it again. Hopefully they smooth out the rng a bit next patch.

Thanks for the help.

So you got it with Aspect of Moros?

i got this with whatever aspect gives the daybreaker thing. THAT... was interesting to see, and didn't work at all the way i thought it would. but it was good to learn that just cuz there's 2 or more daybreakers on the screen doesn't mean any of them will even do anything :/

I was using the aspect of Mel when I finally got it, so not sure if it appears for Moros.

It would make sense if it wasn't available for Moros, because increasing the number of attack projectiles would skyrocket the aspects damage output. However, I could be wrong, I don't know.

45 runs with the umbral flames of all aspects and still no split spark from a hammer, thank gods for the anvils you can get before the fighting chronos because I was just I was at my limit

It makes sense if that restriction exists ngl, some Aspects in the first game didn't get certain Daedelus upgrades, and I think a few hidden aspects had their own upgrades but don't quote me on that, I may be misremembering
