Item levels
Every weapon, shield and piece of armour can climb from +1 Common to +5 Legendary. Each level is one more bonus on the item, and its colour shows everyone what you found.

Five levels, two ways up
Monsters can drop gear at any level. The stations in town add one level at a time. Both climb the same scale, so a +3 from a corpse is one upgrade away from +4.

- A +N upgrade takes tier N material: 30 pieces for +1 and twice as many each level after. Mixed stacks of one tier count together.
- A failed upgrade costs the material and the gold. The item keeps its level.
- Drop chances run from an item that drops often to one that very rarely does, on gear that can reach every level.
How high an item can climb
Every item has a class from 1 to 5, its place among the 8.0 items of its slot, and looking at it shows the class. The class sets the highest level it can reach, by drop or by upgrade. A better class also means bigger bonuses, more kinds of bonus and more gold per upgrade.

Found on a monster
Weapons, armour, helmets, legs, boots, shields, wands and rods can drop with levels already on. The rarer the drop, the better the odds: 5% for an item that drops often, up to 23% for a very rare one.
You see a legendary magic plate armor +5. Class 5. Legendary +5: +3 armor, +75 hit points, 4% fire protection, 30% lighter, +3 armor.
Loot of a demon: a legendary magic plate armor +5, an epic demon shield +4, an epic fire axe +4, 57 gold coins, 3 platinum coins.
- Daily bosses and arena bosses roll these chances at 2×, and elite monsters raise them too.
- Rings, amulets, ammunition, NPC wares and quest rewards never drop with levels.
Every Legendary is news
A +5 drop is announced in the game and on Discord, naming who found it and the monster that dropped it.

Upgraded at a station
Any weapon, shield or piece of armour can take the next level, whatever level it came with. Wands and rods get theirs only from drops.
- Gather ore, wood or hides, or buy them from other players. Upgrading to +N takes tier N material.
- Go to the anvil at the smith, the workbench at the bowyer or the tanning rack at the leather or armour shop in any of the 12 big towns and use it.
- Put your item in the window that opens. It shows what the next level takes, your chance of success and every bonus the item can roll. Press Upgrade.
AnvilOre gives any weapon, shield or armour raw power: attack, defense or armor, and protection on shields, armour and legs.
WorkbenchWood adds the rest: defense and skills on weapons, hit chance on bows, shielding, hit points, mana, magic level or speed.
Tanning rackHides on any weapon, shield or armour make it lighter or add speed, hit points or mana.
Every bonus has a grade
- G152%
- G226%
- G313%
- G46%
- G53%
These are the odds on a +5 upgrade of class 5 gear. Each grade is half as likely as the one below, and a bonus can't reach a grade above its level or the item's class: a magic plate armor can roll grade 5, a coat never passes grade 1.

What a level can add
Each level adds one bonus. At a station, the material you bring picks the list. On a drop, the item's slot does.
Ore at an anvil
- Swords, axes and clubs: attack up to +4
- Bows and crossbows: attack up to +4
- Shields: defense up to +2, protection against one element up to 4% (class 4 and up)
- Armour: armor up to +2, protection against one element up to 4% (class 4 and up)
- Helmets: armor up to +1
- Legs: armor up to +1, protection against one element up to 4% (class 4 and up)
- Boots: armor up to +1
Wood at a workbench
- Swords, axes and clubs: defense up to +4, its fighting skill up to +3 (class 3 and up)
- Bows and crossbows: hit chance up to +6% (class 3 and up), distance fighting up to +3
- Shields: shielding up to +3
- Armour: hit points up to +75
- Helmets: mana up to +75, magic level up to +2 (class 3 and up)
- Legs: hit points up to +75
- Boots: speed up to +15
Hides at a tanning rack
- Any weapon, shield or armour: up to 30% lighter, speed up to +15, hit points up to +75, mana up to +75
Weight cuts stop at 50% in total.
Weapon skills, magic level and hit chance open from class 3, and protection from class 4. When a material has nothing left to add, the station refuses it and you bring another.
Bonuses from drops, by slot and class

Try a level again
A solvent takes the last level off your item, dropped or upgraded, so you can try it again. A weak solvent takes off a +1, a grand solvent a +5. The upgrade window shows which one you need.

Mild SolventTakes off +2
Strong SolventTakes off +3
Potent SolventTakes off +4
Grand SolventTakes off +5
Good to know
- Levels stay on the item when you trade it or lose it. They follow the normal 8.0 death and trade rules, and NPCs don't buy these items.
- A bonus counts only while the item is in its own slot.
- Anyone can upgrade their own gear, but the Craft branch of each profession tree raises the chance, so a master miner is the one to upgrade your sword with ore.
