Equipment

In Red Covenant, equipping gear is a pivotal aspect of character development, offering players an additional avenue to bolster their Forsakens' combat effectiveness beyond the conventional leveling system. This system is designed to deepen the gameplay experience, allowing for further customization and strategic planning.

Design Intentions

The gear system is implemented with the intention to:

• Provide a method to enhance your Forsakens' power, adding layers of strategy and depth to character progression.

Equip Slots

• Configuration: Each character is equipped with three gear slots, unlocking progressively at specific levels to pace the enhancement process:

  • First Slot: Unlocks immediately at Level 1.

  • Second Slot: Unlocks at Level 15.

  • Third Slot: Unlocks at Level 35.

• Compatibility: Characters can equip gear from specific categories tailored to their role and abilities. Initially, gear slots are empty, awaiting player customization.

Heirloom

• Bond Level Requirement: Unlocking at a desired bond, Heirloom represents a significant power boost, offering unique enhancements without levels.

• Upgrades: This equipment starts at Tier 1 and follows a similar upgrade path as regular gear, with the current maximum at Tier 2, providing substantial stat improvements.

Level Up Procedure

• Progression: Gear leveling involves using beads, blueprints, or other equipment as EXP material, with each level requiring surpassing an EXP threshold.

• Cap and Uncap: Equipment levels have caps based on their tier, with Tier 1 gear capped at level 10. Reaching a cap triggers the uncap feature, allowing for further enhancements.

Blueprint and Beads

• Blueprints: Essential for upgrading gear across tiers, increasing both the level cap and stats. From Tier 4 onwards, the gear also gains secondary stats, enriching the strategic depth of equipment customization.

• Beads: Serve as EXP materials, available in four grades, each offering different EXP yields. This system ensures that players can level up their gear effectively, enhancing main stats upon reaching new levels.

This gear system in Red Covenant introduces a dynamic layer of strategy to the game, encouraging players to engage deeply with the mechanics of character enhancement. By carefully selecting and upgrading gear, players can tailor their Forsakens to their playstyle, ensuring that each character's potential is maximized on the battlefield.
