Hi guys and girls. 7.0 was released a few days ago and i understand there is a little bit of chaos with the completely new gearing system. So to help make this easier for you all i have created this guide. Feedback will be taken into consideration and i have not yet completed the final section so it is open for discussion

...beginning of guide...

Ok so this thread will talk about a few things:

1) Two types of gear.
2) Astral and Distortion
3) Crafting Gear
4) Buying Gear
5) Changing Stats
6) Reinforcing Gear

TWO TYPES OF GEAR

Firstly before we jump into any tutorial stuff this needs to be made very clear.
There is 2 types of gear in this game.

Stat-Redistributing and Stat-Bound
In the image below, you can see some gear have a yellow circular arrow sign on them... This means they are stat-redistributing.


Stat-Redistributing gear can ONLY BE CRAFTED. All gear from astral and distortion as well as those bought with magical dust... are stat-bound, and you cannot change these stats.

Stat-redistributing gear slots:
Head, Back, Chest, Legs, Feet, Ears, Shirt, Finger.
These items can change stats through transmutation.
These can be attained through crafting only.
These require keys to obtain materials.

Stat-bound gear slots:
Shoulder, Hands, Waist, Neck, Wrists, All weapons.
These items cannot change stats through transmutation.
These can be attained in astral and distortions and buying with magical dust.
These do not require keys to obtain.

To change the stats of stat-bound gear, you must replace the gear completely.

ASTRAL AND DISTORTION

Astral s1 and distortion will give an important loot item for crafting gear. This can only be attained WITHOUT HH.


Astral s2 will drop an upgraded version which has 150% efficiency compared to this item.

Astral s1 and distortion will also drop gear pieces. This does not matter if you have HH or not.


It is recommended that you find 57,000 gear score before using any keys and can be attained as described in my other post.

CRAFTING GEAR

The basic fundamental of crafting gear is [Combat Material] + [Amalgam] + Gold.
Crafting can be done from the old upgrade npc we are all familiar with.


How to get [Combat Material]
You will need [Combat Equipment Parts] from Astral s1 or distortion or [Reinforced Combat Equipment Parts] from Astral s2.


You will also need Tools which can be purchased from the old upgrade npc or the boutique or received from dominion.




Use the Tools on the Combat Equipment Parts to get the Combat Material.


Buy or Earn [Amalgam] from the free trader npc or otherwise and then proceed to craft the wanted gear.

Bare in mind that you can only craft a rarity of gear that you have access to.
For example, you can only craft blue gear once you have achieved 57k gs.


BUYING GEAR

You can also buy gear from the old upgrade npc with a resource called [Magical Dust]




To get this resource, you must convert your item [Magical Dust] to currency by right clicking it and using the 2nd option. You can also turn currency into Item the same way. Full flexibility.

This item can be bought from the free trade merchant.


Or received from using Tools on Gear or [Magic Staple]


CHANGING STATS

Here on the crafting window, is a little tab called "Transmutation", this allows you to change the stats of your gear.


Once you have selected the gear you want to change stats for, you can choose EITHER offensive or defensive change.

You will then be offered a few option to change it to - these are random i believe.

To proceed with this you must have ITEM version of [Magical Dust] and [Amalgam].

Each time you transmute an item, the efficacy percentage will go up (assuming you choose better stats).

REINFORCING GEAR

Reinforcing your gear, upgrades the gear to the next rarity.

To do this you need 1000 ITEM version of [Magical Dust] and [Amalgam].


This will allow you to craft and item which allows you to create reinforcement scrolls.


This scroll will upgrade your gear to the next rarity, keeping the same stats BUT THE EFFICACY % WILL RESET.

-- End of Guide --

When you use the scroll of reinforcement, you are upgrading your blue to purple. IT KEEPS THE EFFICACY PERCENTAGE.
If you don't use the reinforcement scroll and craft epic instead, you will have to do the entire transmutation process again.
