Amplifiers

## What are Amplifiers?

Golem Overlord currently has four slots on the inventory page: backgrounds, advisor (to be used in expeditions), module, and tech.

A module is the equipment slot of Golem Overlord. An amplifier is a type of module NFT that has amplifying stats.

## Statistics and Quality

After rarity, the key features of an amplifier are the statistics and quality.

### Statistics

There are three magnitudes of stats:

1. Small (Green)
2. Medium (Yellow)
3. Big (Red)

Each magnitude offers unique odds and potential stats to acquire.

Certain stats are exclusive to Medium or Big magnitudes, while others span across all levels. For identical stats, a Big magnitude will invariably surpass a Small one in strength. However, each magnitude has a specific range of values it can attain.

Example:

* Faith 2-4 <- Small
* Faith 4-8 <- Medium
* Faith 12-20 <- Big

The Golem Overlord Module Guide: Module Basics has a list of all possible stats.

### Quality

Quality is a multiplier to all stats on the amplifier.

#### Upgrading from quality -1 to 0 is always an upgrade to stats

It is highly recommended that you get the module you plan to equip upgraded to at least 0 quality in the forge. Doing so will always increase the module stats by 1.

Higher rarity modules have higher upgrade costs

#### Quality Rounding

Modules will floor, round, or ceil the stats based on the quality.

* Below 0 quality -> it will floor
* 0-4 quality -> it rounds
* 5 quality -> it ceils

#### Examples

* Floor = 7.7 becomes 7
* Round = 7.5 becomes 8
* Round = 7.2 becomes 7
* Ceil = 7.2 becomes 8

## Identifying

Amplifier modules drop in an unidentified state. Before a module is identified, it is not entangled to your account and can be traded or sold in the market.

You can Identify a module from your inventory page by clicking on it. You will have to burn shard tokens to identify a module. Identifying the module will randomly roll the stats, make it equippable, and will also entangle it to your account. Upon identification, it will gain the specified number of stats and will be of quality level -3 to +1.

For complete details, screenshots, and instructions see the Golem Overlord Module Guide: Module Basics.

## Equipping

You can equip an identified module by opening your inventory and clicking on the module, then selecting the "Equip" option.

Note: There is currently no warning message or prompt displayed prior to the equip function. As soon as you press equip, the module will be immediately equipped to your account.

24-Hour Equip Timer: after you equip a module, it cannot be unequipped for 24 hours.

You can unequip an equipped module from your inventory. Simply click on the module, then select the "Unequip" option. Note that the unequip option will not work if the 24-hour countdown timer is still active.
