What is Equipment?

Beyond leveling up, equipping your heroes is crucial for boosting their stats. Each hero has six equipment slots:

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

All artifacts within a given tier share the same upgrade cost and engulf value. Artifact rarity significantly impacts their power. Here's the rarity breakdown from highest to lowest:

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

Orange and Red artifacts are the most powerful. Some artifacts are hero-specific, granting unique abilities and stats when equipped by the intended hero. These exclusive versions often surpass their standard counterparts in power and offer an additional property tied to a specific faction (indicated by the relevant faction icon).
