Escalating Exposure is a Tier 4 Spirit Item that can be purchased from the Shop for  6,400. Its component, Mystic Vulnerability, makes up  1,600 of the cost.

Notes

• Unlike its component Mystic Vulnerability, the amplified damage from Escalating Exposure is a separate instance of damage, applied after the original spirit damage. This has implications for abilities or effects that rely on single instances of damage, such as Tankbuster.
  • This still applies even if the teammate also has Escalating Exposure.
• The user that most recently started applying stacks' icon will be the only one shown to the entire team.
• The user with stacks applied to them will only see the combined total of Escalating Exposure stacks on them, not each player's individual count.
