Equipment Quality:
Equipment can be of 5 different qualities. The quality of equipment can be upgraded using a RedStone or a Super RedStone.
Ordinary (white) —> Refined (slight green shine) —> Unique (blue shine) —> Elite (red shine) —> Super (orange shine)
Extra potency is awarded when all of the equipment is above ordinary quality.
All equipment Refined or better = +1 Potency
All equipment Unique or better = +3 Potency
All equipment Elite or better = +4 Potency
All equipment Super = +5 Potency and your character will shine
Equipment Level:
Equipment ranges in level. You can only wear equipment that is your level or lower (A level 50 warrior cannot use a level 71 sword). If all of your equipment is the highest level equipment you can wear, then any extra potency from your equipment is doubled. Your equipment’s level can be upgraded with a VioletStone or a Super VioletStone.
Equipment can have a bonus from (+0) to (+12). YellowStones can increase your equipment’s bonus. Super YellowStones can increase a bonus from (+7) à (+8) and from (+8) à (+9). You can upgrade you equipment’s bonus beyond +9 by speaking to Perez in Market. Perez can help you upgrade your equipment beyond (+9) without the equipment’s bonus ever falling below (+9).
Equipment Sockets:
Equipment can sometimes have sockets, or sockets can be created during a successful upgrade (maximum of 2 sockets per equipment). Gems can be embedded into sockets to make the equipment more powerful. You receive +1 potency for every socket you equipment has. In addition, for every super gem embedded in your equipment, you receive a +1 bonus to potency.
