What is Equipment?

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

All artifacts within a given tier share the same upgrade cost and engulf value. Artifacts come in various rarities, ranked from highest to lowest:

  1. Orange
  2. Red
  3. Green
  4. Purple
  5. Yellow
  6. Blue

Orange and Red artifacts are the highest tier. Some artifacts are hero-specific, granting unique abilities or stats when equipped. These exclusive versions are generally stronger than their standard counterparts and often provide an additional property tied to a specific faction, indicated by the relevant faction icon.
