What is Equipment?

Beyond leveling up, equipping your heroes with the right gear is a crucial way to boost 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 represent the highest tier. Some artifacts are hero-specific, granting unique abilities and stats when equipped on their designated hero. These exclusive versions usually outperform their standard counterparts and often provide an additional property exclusive to heroes of a specific faction (indicated by a faction icon).
