What is Equipment?

Beyond leveling up, equipping your heroes is a key strategy for significantly enhancing 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 effectiveness, ranging 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 on the designated hero. These exclusive versions often surpass their standard counterparts in power and offer additional properties tied to the hero's faction, indicated by a faction icon.
