Aug 22nd, 2016
Greetings Saviors!
This week on the Developer's Blog, we would like to cover the Item Transcendence System.
Item Transcendence
- Only weapons, armor and accessories are eligible for Transcendence.
- The chance of successfully Transcending an item will increase depending on the number of materials(Goddesses' Blessed Gems) you select to use.
- Different Gems are required depending on the type of equipment you wish to Transcend.
- There are different chances of success for each stage of Transcendence and each success will elevate the item to the next Transcendence Stage. (Maximum of 10 stages)
- The item will lose one Transcendence Stage upon failure but will not decrease in potential.
- Transcended equipment will become untradable.
※ Please note that equipment that has been reduced to Transcendence Stage 0 due to repeated failures will become tradable once more.
- The damage of items will increase accordingly to their original stats when Transcended.
※ The contents above may be changed as results of patches.
