Gear

Unique pieces range from item level 36 to 102, epic ones from 23 to 45. A piece’s item level determines what enhancing costs, how much each level gives and how many Amp levels are possible.

Your character’s item level is a simple sum. Content checks exactly this value.

• the item level of every equipped piece,
• +1 per enhancement level on every piece,
• +1 per Daevanion Crystal spent, including on the Azphel PvP board,
• +1 to +4 per manastone line, depending on colour: grey 1, green 2, blue 3, yellow 4,
• Arcana cards with their own item level,
• +5 per Amp level. KR/TW value

Wings, pets and titles don’t count.

Global has 20 gear slots. Brooch, pendant and seal from the Asian version are missing.

What a level gives grows with the piece’s item level. +15 on a Unique weapon with item level 36 gives 61 attack; on one with item level 102 it’s 174. Almost all the Kina for enhancing to +15 goes into levels +11 to +15.

So the rule is: take farmed pieces you’ll replace soon to +10 at most. Expensive levels are worth it on pieces you’ll wear for a long time or whose progress you can pass on (see Transferring and Crafting).

These four slots have their own upgrades. You get the belt and amulet through the main story. The belt gives defensive stats, the amulet offensive stats.

Every piece carries random stat lines: four on looted Unique pieces, five on crafted Dragon Lord pieces, three on Ludra’s weapons. A line is either a general stat or a skill level for your class.

With Soul Binding you work on these lines:

Roll the line you want first, then raise its value. The lowest value is always the most likely when rolling. The fusion line is lost on a transfer, so don’t put a rare line there.

A piece becomes soul-bound when you equip it and can’t be traded after that. So sell whatever you want to sell before equipping it. KR/TW value

You socket manastones into weapons and armour, soul stones into jewellery. Every stone rolls a stat in one colour: grey, green, blue or yellow. The better the colour, the higher the value and the more item level the line gives. Belt, amulet and runes don’t take stones.

• There are lesser, intermediate and superior stones, each also as an Abyss variant with PvP lines.
• The two lowest tiers don’t roll damage lines. KR/TW value
• Better stones come from Transcendence, the raid and the Abyss; Alchemy crafts higher tiers.
• Manastones, soul stones and the weapon’s theostone are lost when transferring. They also don’t carry over when you upgrade crafted pieces.
• Only one theostone counts per weapon; identical stones don’t stack.

You’ll have plenty of lesser stones later. They’re enough for quick item level on transitional gear. Expensive stones belong on pieces you keep.

Once a Unique piece is at +15, you continue with Amp (Amplified Enhance). How many levels are possible depends on item level: none below 54, one at 54 to 62, three at 70 to 78, five from 86. A failure only costs the attempt; the level stays, and the chance rises next time. The material is zenith stones, which you convert from zenith stone fragments and enhancement stones.

Weapons and jewellery get attack and damage amplification, armour gets defence, health and damage resistance. The fifth level alone makes up about half of the total cost. Amp is kept when transferring.

Almost every Unique piece from item level 36 has a potential line. On Global it’s a pure PvP stat: weapons and jewellery get PvP damage amplification, armour and bracelets PvP damage resistance. There is no PvE variant.

• Four levels at 0.5% each, 2% in total. Every level succeeds.
• Cost: 1, 2, 3 and 4 “Potential Enhancement Stone: Abyss (Unique)” plus 100,000 Abyss Points each, 10 stones and 400,000 points in total, no Kina.
• The stones drop in Lower Reshanta; the Abyss shop sells 20 per week, shared by all characters on a server.
• Potential is lost when transferring.

With a Transfer, the progress of a Unique piece moves to a new Unique piece. It always succeeds and costs no Kina, only transfer stones.

Transfers work within three item level ranges: 36–70, 70–86 and 86–102. Into the top range, the source piece may come from any range, but there it costs two stones instead of one. Going from a lower rarity to Unique isn’t possible.

You get transfer stones through Substance Morph from looted Unique pieces. So don’t just dismantle surplus yellow pieces for enhancement stones.

Crafted Unique gear follows a ladder: you only craft the first tier with item level 62 directly. Every higher tier is made by upgrading the previous one, step by step up to item level 102.

Gathering already opens at level 10, so you can collect materials while levelling. Most crafting materials are tradable, but you can only buy on the market with a membership. What to craft first is in the guide From 45 to Ludra.
