Equipment

## Overview

Equipment are items that can be given to a hero in order to increase their stats. Equipment are divided into 3 slot groups: **Weapon, Armor,** and **Accessory**. Each slot group providing a distinct set of stats. Weapons specializes in providing offensive stats, Armors for defense, and Accessories for additional bonuses. A hero will start at 3 equipment slots (one for Weapon, one for Armor, and one for Accessory), and will be given 3 additional slots for each star level the hero progresses.

## Obtaining Equipment

Equipment are obtainable throughout the game through loots or drops when you finish a stage. Other modes of acquisition include:

* Golden Equipment capsules, which can be bought at the shop.
* Nephthys Dungeon's Sphinx Maze, which opens up every Sunday.
* Completing certain Achievements
* Platinum Equipments, which can be obtained by extracting number of items.

## Equipment Upgrading

Equipment can be upgraded to make them even more powerful. In this way, the equipment will give more stats and bonuses. The 2 ways of upgrading equipment are **Enhance** and **Refine**.

### Enhance

Enhancing equipment increases its item level. An equipment normally starts with an item level of +0 and can be enhanced up to +10. Enhancing an equipment will cost gold and as the item level grows, the chance of success of getting to an even higher level narrows. One thing to keep in mind is that an equipment may not be enhanced further until you have refined it.

### Refine

Refining equipment increases its grade. Grades characterize the equipment's power and the amount of potentials it provides. An equipment may be of the following grades:

* **Normal**. An equipment starts at this grade. It is characterized by a prefix [Normal] on the item's name and a brown background on the item's icon. It does not provide any additional potential.
* **Rare**. A Normal equipment with a +3 level can be refined to this item grade. It is characterized by a prefix [Rare] on the item's name and a green background on the item's icon. It can carry up to 1 item potentials.
* **Epic**. A Rare equipment with a +5 level can be refined to this item grade. Characterized by the [Epic] prefix and a blue background. It can carry up to 2 potentials.
* **Unique**. An Epic equipment with a +7 level can be refined to this item grade. Characterized by the [Unique] prefix and a red background. It can carry up to 3 potentials.
* **Legendary**. A Unique equipment with a +9 level can be refined to this item grade. Characterized by the [Legendary] prefix and a pink background. It can carry up to 4 potentials.

Refining equipment costs gold and uses certain materials named Metals. Metals are obtained throughout the game by loots or drops. Each of the equipment slot group uses a certain type of metal: Orichalcums are for weapons, Adamantiums are for Armors, and Mithril for Accessories. Additionally, each star level uses a certain type of metal grade, 1-star equipment use Flawed metals, 2-stars use Fine, 3-stars use Superior, 4-star Perfect, and 5-star Special.

## Equipment Potentials

   Aside from the base stats that an equipment provides, they also gain potentials. These potentials are random bonuses that an item gets upon refining or modifying.

Similar to hero potentials, a potentials text color signifies the value of the stat bonus. The grade progression is as follows: White, Green, Blue, Orange, Pink. The higher the grade, the higher the stat bonus is.

## Equipment Modification

An equipment's potentials can be renewed (or re-rolled) by using **Modification stones**. Modification stones can be acquired by participating in certain events (e.g. Tower of Dawn, daily login, etc). Upon modification, all the potentials will be re-rolled unless the player opts to "lock" the potential (in that case the amount of Modification stones used will increase).

### Potential Priorities:

You need to get first and second priority potentials in pink. If you rolled third or forth in pink - don't lock them, reroll. After you rolled first and second potentials in pink you want to roll until you get third potential at least in orange.

## Set Items

    *For the complete list of Set Items, please refer to Set Items.*

There are a special kind of equipment called **Set Items.** They function normally as a regular equipment but it gives certain bonuses and effects when owning parts of the set. Some set items give natural bonuses while others need a certain condition to take effect.

Set Items can be obtained by the following methods:

* Buying Golden Equipment Capsules at the shop has chance to drop a set item.
	+ Specialized capsules named Black Equipment Capsules (or Black Coocoo Capsule), has a higher chance of dropping a piece of a set item.
* Finishing the 55th and 111th floor of the Tower of Dawn, which in this case gives the whole set.
* By extracting you can also get a random set item other than a Platinum Equipment, but once you meet a certain threshold you can get a guaranteed set item.

### Set Item Conversion

It is possible to obtain another part of set items by using this feature. You need diamonds to perform a conversion (the number of diamonds will depend on the grades of the set item).

The quality of the equipment will be maintained. However, ***the enhancements and equipment potentials will be reset***.
