LEDE-ENSP1 Silent Magician Zero
Level 4 LIGHT Spellcaster Effect Monster
ATK 1000
DEF 1000
If your opponent draws a card(s): Increase this card’s Level by the number drawn. While this card’s Level is higher than its original Level, it gains ATK equal to the difference x 500. When your opponent activates a Spell Card or effect, while you control “Shining Sarcophagus” (Quick Effect): You can negate the activation, and if you do, increase this card’s Level by 1. You can only use this effect of “Silent Magician Zero” once per turn.

Interesting localization choice to not call it “Shining Gold Sarcophagus”
It’s funny you say that, King’s Sarcophagus (The Horus one) actually has a different word for sarcophagus than both Gold Sarcophagus and Shining Sarcophagus. The former uses 棺 (Hitsugi), while the latter just uses 櫃 (Hitsu). So for all intents and purposes, Gold Sarcophagus and just Sarcophagus would actually be two different archetypes if they ever got to that point.
Hope they get it sorted out before they give Abidos a Structure Deck.
What the hell does “While this card’s Level is higher than its original Level, it gains ATK equal to the difference x 500” mean? Does that mean every level increase adds 500 ATK? They could’ve made it simpler, good lord
It gains 500 more ATK at Level 5, 1000 more at Level 6, 1500 more at Level 7, and so on.
There is no limit to its Level either so it can exceed Level 12.
Lol, that is simple. There’s nothing confusing about the effect.
Responding to unknownpotato
Yes, that’s exactly what it means. “Silent Magician Zero’s” original Level is 4. So let’s say you equip her with “Synchro Boost”. This increases the equipped monster’s ATK by 500 and its Level by 1. Her current Level is now 5, which is higher than her original Level of 4 by 1. So not only is she gaining 500 ATK from “Synchro Boost”, but she’ll also gain an additional 500 ATK from her own effect.
TL;DR: If you equip “Silent Magician Zero” with “Synchro Boost”, her current ATK will become 2000.
