The next major update, "The Enchanted" (v1.4), is just around the corner! As we approach the release I wanted to share details about the new enchantments.

What are Enchantments

Enchantments are little trinkets imbued with some of the lifeforce found in remna. This gives them a wide range of special attributes. These attributes can be transferred to equipment through Chaos Crafting or with the help of the new Enchanter NPC for a price. Enchantment attributes range from simple "+X ATK" to the more complex such as on hit effects.

Where to get Enchantments

Enchantments are currently found in the treasure chests scattered about Crea. They can have special attributes only available from specific locations such as dungeons or bosses. So keep an eye out for them every time you crack open a casket.

How to use Enchantments

Enchantments are used during material selection when crafting equipment. Enchantments do have a specified level and using a higher level enchantment will raise the required level to equip the item. Many attributes on enchantments have a value range such as "+[5-8] ATK". By getting a higher quality through Chaos Crafting you can achieve the high numbers.

Changes to Equipment

With the addition of enchantments, there are many changes being made to equipment. The most notable change is that equipment will no longer be upgraded from tier to tier. Previously you would need a Greatsword to craft an Executioner - now you don't! This also means that some high tier equipment have been weakened. This is especially true for bows. Following that, another huge change is that equipment no longer have the "potential" attributes. Equipment will still have their unique attributes and armor will have some DEF and MIND but beyond those the attributes will have to come from enchantments. Nearly all of the level specific items such as "Sano's Gorget Lv20" have been removed. Now the base item simply scales with the player by providing a percentage instead of a flat amount. For example, "Sano's Gorget" used to give +30HP but now it will give you +20%HP.
There are many other major changes coming to Crea in "The Enchanted". Keep an eye out for the beta announcement coming soon. Let me know what you think about Enchantments and these changes below in the comments!
