Equipment and crafting

The five slots

You can wear one piece in each of five slots: sword, helmet, suit, aura and slash. Each piece has a main bonus and several secondary bonuses. The game only rolls secondary bonuses that work with the main bonus, so they won’t conflict.

Your build guides two of those slots: choose a slash that boosts your damage source and a suit that boosts your gold source. (Picking a build explains how to choose.) The other three slots are more flexible.

Where pieces come from

• Reaching a new stage can give you one equipment drop. The first is at stage 16, followed by another every 20 stages.
• You can farm up to 20 additional drops each day.
• You can also get equipment from crafting, the shop, events and quests.

Your inventory holds 100 pieces. Sell extras for diamonds: Common pieces sell for 1, Rares for 5, Legendaries for 25, and Mythic or Unique pieces for 100.

Rarities

From lowest to highest, the rarities are Common, Rare, Event, Legendary and Mythic. Unique equipment sits outside that ranking. Each Unique piece has its own fixed secondary bonus in addition to any bonuses it rolls.

Equipment sets

Most equipment belongs to a five-piece set, with one piece for each slot. Each set has three bonuses, which activate when you collect all five pieces. There are 214 sets:

Set type	Sets	Crafting shards per piece
Rare	15	5 to 9
Legendary	100	20 to 36
Mythic	20	100 to 180
Event	59	Can't be crafted
Unique	20 (one piece each)	150

Mythic sets unlock as your max stage rises. The first ones become available between stages 1,000 and 6,000; the remaining 13 unlock at stage 25,000. Event sets are available only through their events.

The in-game build guide recommends sets for each build. Some bonuses are useful no matter what you play: for example, The Great Traveler increases relics and mementos (see Transcendence).

Crafting

Use crafting shards to make a set piece you’re missing. You can earn shards from tournaments, clan quests, the Hive and Seek shop, and Titan Chests. Shop promotions sometimes double the shards you get from Titan Chests.

Once you’ve found a Unique piece, you can craft another for 150 shards. Outside Abyssal Tournaments, you need 10 crafting power to do this. In an Abyssal Tournament, there’s no crafting-power requirement.

Crafting power

Crafting power unlocks at stage 500 and increases the bonuses from completed sets. Since version 6.3.0, those bonuses keep more of their growth at high crafting power, so crafting power remains useful as you progress.
