What is Equipment?


Beyond leveling, equipping is a primary method for boosting specific Hero stats. Each hero has six equipment slots:

  • Weapons
  • Armor
  • Shoes
  • Accessories
  • Artifacts
  • Gems/stones (Treasures)

All artifacts within a tier share the same upgrade cost and engulf value. Artifact rarity influences their power. Listed below from highest to lowest:

  • Orange
  • Red
  • Green
  • Purple
  • Yellow
  • Blue

Orange and Red artifacts are the highest tier. Some artifacts are hero-specific, granting unique abilities/stats when equipped. Exclusive artifact versions are generally superior to their standard counterparts, offering an additional property exclusive to heroes of a specific faction (indicated by a faction icon).
