Core

By playing the Treasure Dungeon, which is a solo dungeon, you can obtain Refining Stones. Using Refining Stones, you can set Core options to enhance your alter level. The number and grade of Core options that can be set increase according to the level of the Altar.

To apply the set options, you must check any unused options. The set options will be applied in their exact position, so be careful not to overwrite previously applied options. The options set using the Refining Stone will not disappear, so don’t worry even if you lack the Refining Stones needed to apply them.

You need to check the options you want to delete, not the ones you want to apply.

• When you press Refine, it consumes a Refining Stone to set new options. The options are set randomly, and the probability of higher-grade options appearing increases according to the level of the Altar.

• When you set an option you want to apply to the core, check the options you don’t want to apply. The checked options will turn black. The number of Refining Stones consumed during application will increase based on the number of checked options. When applying options, they are applied in the same order (position) as they were set.

• Once the options are applied to the core, you can confirm that the unchecked options have been applied. The checked options will disappear, and to set new options, you must press Refine again to configure them.

Equipment

Types of Equipment Items

You can obtain various equipment by hunting monsters and playing boss raids. In Pixel Heroes Adventure, there are six types of equipment: helmet, armor, shirt, cape, boots, and bow.

Grade of Equipment Items

Equipment is categorized into the following grades: Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Mythical.

The equipment’s stats increase according to its grade.

Tier

Equipment has a Tier, separate from its grade. The Tier of newly acquired equipment increases based on the adventure stage you’ve cleared. As the Tier increases, the base values of attack and health on the equipment rise, and the base values of the main options attached to the equipment also increase.

The Tier of equipment that you have already obtained does not change. Only the Tier of newly acquired equipment increases.

Enchant of Equipment Items

Upgrades can be performed through the blacksmith NPC in town or via the Upgrade UI in the Right UI, with a guaranteed success up to 2 stars. However, from 3 stars and above, the success rate decreases based on the upgrade stage.

Each piece of equipment starts with a durability of 3, and each time an upgrade fails, 1 durability point is consumed. Once durability is completely depleted, further upgrades are not possible, but the equipment can still be equipped even if its durability reaches 0.

The upgrade level of equipped items is determined by the highest upgrade record among items of the same Tier and type. For example, if you have upgraded an item of the same Tier and type to 7 stars, equipping a 0-star item will allow it to inherit the stats of the 7-star item.

Item Lock

If you want to protect your equipment, you can use Item Lock. By using Item Lock, the equipment will not be selected when disassembling or when selecting multiple items, effectively excluding it from those actions.

Equipment Salvage

You can salvage unwanted equipment. Salvaging equipment earns you Altar experience. The amount of experience you receive depends on the rank and tier of the equipment you salvage (the equipment’s star does not affect the amount of experience received).

If you have a lot of equipment to salvage, you can use the auto-select feature to salvage them in bulk by grade. You can salvage up to a maximum of 50 of equipment at once. When salvaging, equipped items are not included.

Be cautious when using the bulk salvage option, as it may include unwanted items. Locked items will not be automatically disassembled.

Attribute Skill

Skills are divided into a total of 11 attributes, including the normal attribute. Each attribute’s skills are classified into melee, ranged, buff, and shield skills.

Each stage, party dungeon, solo dungeon, and raid have monsters with specific attributes, and there are attribute affinities.

You can check the attribute chart in the battle menu and equip attribute skills that suit each battle to gain an advantage.

Enhanced Skill

Skills of each attribute can be upgraded to Enhanced Skills by upgrading the corresponding Legendary or Mythical ToyZ. When you upgrade a ToyZ to 3 stars, you can enhance the skill, and when you upgrade it to 7 stars, you can further enhance the enhanced skill.
