This guide is a work in progress, as I am still somehow discovering new equipment on occasion. Also, the game is in Early Access, so some of these may change as the game receives new updates.

With a major overhaul to the itemization in the game has occured as of patch 0.4.0, a major rework to the guide is in process. As all gear can now be leveled further than the original rarities would allow, the new maximum potential is currently a mystery to me. So, my original plan of listing every items base-max values is no longer a possibility within a decent timeframe. And since, in an attempt to reacquire my old build in order to do content, I have already leveled some of my gear in game, I will simply be listing all known gear at as high of a value as I can, and will update on occasion. The goal is to make a second save, pick up every item in the game at base value, and have a primary save where everything is maxed, so both base/max can be listed in this guide.

Wish me luck out there. The game just keeps getting bigger, and its taking alot more time to do this guide than I figured.

Note- Currently, listed numbers with an underline are the numbers that apparently grow with each Exaltation level gained by the gear, up to +16. The numbers currently listed are the ones I currently own, but I will eventually be listing them as high as I possibly can. Just know, that without save editing, the amount of time required will be substantial, as getting past +10 begins enforcing failure chances, essentially wasting my hard earned ichor on a failure. so if a number listed is different than what you have, it is either much higher level than yours, or it is from before the update, listed as the lowest number it can get.


The gearing in the game is diverse, and plentiful, but also a little confusing. There are a total of 6(ish) slots with different gear to allocate for each slot, each serving a distinct purpose for your combat style.

Gear has a level that can be increased through use, and finding duplicates. This allows for more, and increased potency major and minor augments to be slotted into the items. Each item in the game can now hold at least two major augments, and three minor. The augments themselves are leveled by feeding ichor(currency) into the item, which increases every Major augment slotted, though minor augments are based more on the gears level.

Major Augments are discovered when you find the gear item corresponding to that augment, which means you can essentially have a gear item with two or more item effects on it. Minor augments are based on the items level. As your items gain level, through use or duplicates, that level adds "Experience Points" to the item, which are then spent randomly on all the available minor augments the item can have. They are acquired and leveled randomly, so its best to simply grind the item you desire through extensive use.

Gear can be acquired mostly from found chests, both standard and secret, and on occasion from enemy kills. They can be equipped as soon as they are found the first time, and any subsequent find of them adds experience, based on the rarity of the item found. Higher rarity means more exp. Certain weapon can even be found out in the map at predetermined locations, though once found, they can begin being found as dropped loot to help increase their level without extensive use.

These are a few terms to look out for when going through the augments for the gear found in the game. Some of these terms are directly explained in game, and some are my own personal explanation.

• Otvrat- I am assuming these are the basic enemies, perhaps non boss trash mobs found commonly throughout the game. They do not include Giants, Skeletons, Ice Elementals, etc.
  
• Ichor- The standard currency you acquire from chests and kills, used to upgrade gear.
  
• Resourcefulness- Increases the amount of Ichor I collect.
  
• Luck- Luck affects the chance of encountering higher rarity items.
  
• Energy- These are the yellow crystals you consume to do knockbacks on heavy attacks, block enemy attacks, and a few other minor effects.
  
• Resistance- Rare effect, temporary. Decreases the speed at which status effects are applied.
  
• Heart Charge- How many hits you can take till you die. They recover by hitting enemies, and a few other ways, but mostly hits.
  
• Temporary Heart Charge- A heart charge that is technically fake, has a limit, and is a free health. It only has a few sources, but has a variety of uses.
  
• Perfect Dash- Evading when an enemy is striking to Prefect Dash. Enemies glow yellow during the Perfect Dash window. Can even be done to ranged attacks.
  
• Block- Is basically blocking attacks. Can block almost all attacks in the game, but each blocked attack consumes an Energy crystal.
  
• Parry- A perfectly timed block. Negates damage, does not consume charges, and can trigger a variety of item effects.
  
• Runic Strike- Your special attack, charged by hitting enemies, and a few other sources, triggers after listed number of strikes automatically.
  
• Powers- These differ from the Runic Strike, and are tied directly to the base weapon type. Each weapon has three unique powers, differing cooldowns, and a myriad of effects.
  
• Physical- Basic weapon damage, augmented in a myriad of ways.
  
• Lightning- A general use secondary damage, tends to chain to nearby targets, but can be singular. Many sources, as its part of the playable characters nature. Also the damage dealt when you strike the ground.
  
• Fire- Fire damage, with a few sources, usually temporary, can cause the status Ablaze.
  
• Ablaze- Fire based status effect. The Ablaze status effect deactivates the ability to restore Heart Charges of one Heart per stack. In my experience, it also deals damage over time similar to Poison.
  
• Poison- Poison damage, some sources, can even offer constant sourced poison. Causes damage over time ticks, usually stacks, and causes Poisoned status.
  
• Poisoned- Poison based status effect. If applied to the monster, the Poisoned status effect deals 3 poison damage per stack every second. If applied to me, the Poisoned effect causes me to lose one additional Heart each time I take damage, which also removes 1 stack of poisoned.
  
• Cold- Cold damage, somewhat rare damage type, can cause freezing status effect.
  
• Freezing- Cold based status effect. If applied to the monster, the Freezing status effect slows down all movement by 10% per stack. If applied to me, the freezing effect reduces the speed at which Powers recharge by 8% per stack, while also slowing me down.
  
• Frozen- If the number of Freezing stacks reaches 12, the monster becomes Frozen. Hitting a Frozen monster shatters them, removing all Freezing stacks, and dealing significant physical damage to it and all monsters nearby. Players cannot be Frozen.
  
• Psychic- Psychic damage, rare damage type that can caused the Weakened status effect
  
• Weakened- If applied to the monster, the Weakened status effect increases all received damage by 10% per stack. If applied to me, the Weakened status effect reduces all outgoing damage by 10% per stack.
  
• Obscured- While under the Obscured status effect, any damage is negated with a 50% chance.
  
• Sharpened- Rare status buff. Sharpened increases all physical damage by 10% for 8sec. Stacks, and stacks are lost one at a time.
  
• Empowered- Currently only on the Mace of Spirits Repose weapon and a few skills, this effect increases all damage dealt by 8% per stack for 15 seconds.
  
• Revitalized- Currently, only on the Emerald Heart. The Revitalized status effect gradually restores heart charges.

Artifacts are the top most slot in your half circle of gearing. They provide a passive effect, dealing with movement, defences, cooldowns, or loot.

• Emerald Key- Increases resistance to Psychic damage by 10%. Critical power is increased by 50% for each stack of Weakened.
  
• Golden Scarab- For every kill without taking damage, I gain 1 stack of Lucky (up to 30), which increases my luck by 4%.
  
• Hand of Misfortune- When opening a chest, my luck temporarily increases by 65%; however, there is a 19% chance that the chest will explode instead.
  
• Necromantic Goblet- On hit, there is a 10% chance to peel off some Ichor if the target is an Otvrat.
  
• Owl Statuette- While my weapon is sheathed, little wind swirls appear in front of me periodically. Going through them increases my movement speed by 50 for 8 seconds. Stacks.
  
• Pocket Cloud- Holding Jump for 0.8 seconds launches me upwards 10 meters.
  
• Prancing Steed- With my weapon sheathed I can now jump 1 more time(s) and my jump height is increased by 15%.
  
• Ritual Skull- Killing an Otvrat, with an 8% chance, conjures a floating, thick orb of Ichor, which drops a lot of it if destroyed in time.
  
• ?????- Have not found item yet. Will update when found.
  
• Tibia- Passively reduces cooldown by 6%. In addition, using Powers decreases cooldowns of all other Powers by 6%.
  
• Weird Claw- When I gain a Temporary Heart Charge, I get an additional one. Recharges every 10 seconds.

Filling the second slot on the half circle of gearing, Necklaces offer a more offensive passive, dealing with ways of compounding elemental damage to normal attacks.

• Dragonhead- Inflicting Fire damage, with a 4% chance, conjures a meteor that falls on a random target nearby, dealing 50fire damage and 10physical damage.
  
• Phoenixes Feather- Between every 5-12 seconds applies 1.5 stacks of Ablaze, which disables the regeneration of 1 heart per stack. However now, while under Ablaze, my light and heavy attacks also deal an additional 5.0 fire damage per stack of Ablaze.
  
• Poison Vial Pendant- Critical hits apply to target 3 stacks of Poison, dealing 2 damage per stack. Has a cooldown of 6.0 seconds.
  
• Runic Amulet- Activating Rune Infusion power summons clones in a circle before me, reducing lightning resistance of all encircled monsters by 60% for 8 seconds.
  
• Screeching Necklet- Increases psychic damage by 10%. Inflicting psychic damage has a 30% chance to apply weakened for 6 seconds, increasing the damage received per stack.
  
• Shardcaller- Inflicting Cold damage, with a 4% chance, conjures an ice pillar that pierces a random monster nearby, dealing 50 Cold damage and applying 1 stacks of Freezing.
  
• Viper Eye- I gain 1.4 stacks of Poisoned every 3 to 8 seconds. Each hit applies 0-.80 Stacks of Poisoned to the target per stack I carry.
  
• ?????- Have not found item yet. Will update when found.

Hearts are your basic survival gear. They are in the third slot in the half circle. Hearts offer you the basic survival Heart Charges, the equivalent of HP/Health in the game. Losing your last Heart Charge kills your character, sending them back to the tower, losing all held Ichor in the process. The heart is arguably the most important part of the gearing. Choose Wisely

Runes are located below the heart in the half circle of gearing, and occupy the 4th slot. They offer a unique power that recharge after a certain number of strikes, and occur automatically on the next strike. I am unsure if all effects are triggered if multiple runic strikes are on the same hit. Most runes are named "Runes of XXXXX", so I have taken the liberty to rename them for easier sorting.

This section is going to be split into each weapon type, as there is too much for one section for the guide to handle. I will go over each weapon type, and the subtypes within that, their powers, and list them, along with their augments, damage and attack speeds. Currently, listed number with an underline are the numbers that apparently grow with each Exaltation level gained by the weapon, up to +16. The numbers currently listed are the ones I currently own, but I will eventually be listing them as high as I possibly can. Just know, that without save editing, the amount of time required will be substantial, as getting past +10 begins enforcing failure chances, essentially wasting my hard earned ichor on a failure. so if a number listed is different than what you have, it is either much higher level than yours, or it is from before the update, listed as the lowest number it can get.

There are ALOT of weapons in the game, and ALOT of information attached to them. I'm personally impressed with how many weapons there are in the game, honestly. Weapons are allocated in the 5th slot of the Gearing Half Circle, under the Runes. Weapons have different reach when in use. Yes, literally, some weapons strike from further away than others. This is testable by swinging the weapon at a breakable object, like a tombstone, box, vase, chair, etc, and swapping to a weapon that is different length to see how much further it requires you to be from the target before making contact. Now, to preserve my sanity, I will not be testing each weapons reach, considering the difference between what I assume to be the longest weapon(Iron Claymore) and the shortest(Sickles) is minor, and difficult to easily see in the middle of combat.

I will also list here some of the currently missing(for me) weapons and what they are likely to be listed under.

• ????? Sword- Listed between Black Razor and Frost Core, this weapon has a unique shape. Its going to 100% be a sword, obviously, but considering the numbers, I might consider it ending up as a type 2 Sword.
  
  
• The ????? Blade- Another sword, placed after the Storm Tachi, but before The Rose. Going to assume it has a name beginning with "The" and would be willing to bet its going to be a type 1.
  
  
• ????? Pair- Stuck between Scorching Twins and Sickles. They honestly look like Roman Gladius to me, but who knows, thats just the guard and handle I can see. Since dual weapons have fewer type 2, one of them is going to be that, to fill some spots in.
  
  
• Dual Iron Swords 2- Continued from Sickles, then to Snakes. I mean, look at them. They look exactly like Dual Iron Swords.
  
  
• Veilrender- Right after The Boulder, before Shatterflesh. I know what this is, its a unique "hammer" but I apparently didnt get to keep it during the major update of 0.4.0. So I just gotta go back into the arena and do it again apparently...at the cost of 100k ichor.
  
  
• The Rose 2- Just after Shatterflesh, before the dagger category. It even works alphabetically! I know it couldnt be The Rose though, thats a sword archetype. And its listed in the hammers. But at the same time, Veilrender is a Scythe, listed in hammers. Who knows anymore.

Swords are your general weapon. There are more swords than any other type in the game, and some swords even feature in other weapon types, such as dual weapons. They are standard, but useful, with a variety of damage amounts, augments, attack speeds, and designs.


Your typical weapon, and the first weapon you receive in the game, Lightning's Sword. They vary in damage and attack speed so greatly; from as low as 24-28 or 14-47, to as high as 58-66,and ranging from very slow to very fast, Swords are likely the most diverse weapons in the game. But they all share 2 common power sets.

• Rune Infusion- The surrounding magic energizes all runes on my weapon. This enchantment temporarily makes the weapon to strike with accelerated, electrifying blows. Tags- Lightning, Recharges with Hits, Buff
  
  
• Vortex- I launch my weapon, causing it to spin rapidly in place for several seconds. This vortex of steel deals physical damage to all enemies it touches, shredding through monster ranks. Tags- Channeled, Physical, Recharges with Time, Area of Effect
  
  
• Lightning Strike- I leap backwards, hovering momentarily as I gather electric energy. Then, I plunge forward in a precision strike, channeling a burst of lightning through the weapon. Tags- Movement, Lightning, Recharges with Time, Physical

  Swords type 2
  
  Albiet somewhat rare, type 2 swords are only slightly different than regular swords. They have the same moveset, and have similar damage and attack speed variation. The only thing that seems to separate the two is the powers, and the general premise of Fire over Lightning. Having not used much of them, I can only surmise their use through descriptions and limited use.
  
  
• Scorching Arc- I flood the blade with my essence until it engulfs in flames, then send an arc of living flame that fans out before me in a cone, reducing all who stand within it to glowing cinders. Tags- Area of Effect, Fire, Recharges with Time, Physical, Sets Ablaze, Ranged
  
  
• Skewer- I set my blade before me- then let pain turn to wrath in my veins as I charge forward. The steel pierces and leaves only opened throats in its wake, and behind me, the earth itself burns, searing the path with my fury.

Similar to Swords, Dual Weapons have sub types, type 1 and type 2. Dual weapons are fast, generally do not hit hard, but hit multiple times per swing. They are capable of quickly stacking on hit/crit effects, and are more geared towards hit and run tactics.

• Pounce- I leap forward and cross bother my blades-sharp as dragon's teeth- in a swift cut: two strikes, two guaranteed critical hits. Tags- Recharges with Time, Physical, Movement
  
  
• Puncture Therapy- I raise both blades and thrust them forward repeatedly, piercing the foes before me. Each clean hit sharpens the metal a fraction more, making its bite sink deeper. Tags- Recharges with Time, Physical, Channeled, Sharpening, Lightning
  
  
• Deafening Taunt- I strike the blades together; the ringing sound sends monsters staggering and rattles their minds, which only further sharpens my weapon. Tags- Recharges with Time, Sharpening, Area of Effect

  Dual Weapons Type 2
  
  The only real difference here is, again, powers. They are fast and hit twice, so same benefits as the type 1.
  
  
• Drill- I become a whirling cleaver of razors as I drill forward. Whatever stands in my path is simply unmade-reduced to screaming mist in my wake. Tags- Physical, Recharges with Time, Movement, Fire
  
  
• Hundred-Cut Massacre- Not enough Hands? Then I'll make more. Another pair of blades manifests, and the cutting begins- and unending shred. No survivors. Only scraps. Tags- Physical, Fire, Channeled, Sets Ablaze, Recharges with Hits
  
  
• Sting of Cindervein- I coil into the air, twin blades splayed like a scorpion's sting poised to strike.

  Extremely Fast

  Each hit deals an extra 6 fire damage. Activating Vortex power summons a fire tornado for 2.0 seconds, every 0.5 seconds dealing 80% of my fire damage to surrounding monsters.

Slow, hard hitting, and methodical, hammers are the powerhouse of the weapon types. They are the only weapons that naturally break into triple digits on damage, but are in turn, almost never above average speed(Mace of Spirits Repose is fast). They are largely into Lightning with type 1.

• Whirlwind- I unshackle the hammer's weight and spin it around me in a continuous whirlwind. As the motion stills, I drive the weapon earthward- a final, crushing blow that nails the last enemy to the ground. Tags- Channeled, Physical, Recharges with Time
  
  
• Thunderquake- I drive the haft into the earth; the hammer answers with a thunderclap that cracks stone and sky, empowering me. Lightning crawls up my arms and waits-my next blow will carry the storm's final strike. Tags- Lightning, Recharges with Time, Empowering, Area of Effect
  
  
• Skyshatter- I vault skyward, hanging in the air as blue arcs crawl over me. Then I plummet, hammer first-and, on impact, the world splits with a thunderous Vindicator's strike. Tags- Movement, Lightning, Recharges with Time, Physical

  Hammers type 2
  
  Yet again, big weapons, slow attacks, massive damage. This type is the less common power type, but includes the Fleshsmith's Hammer, the hardest hitting weapon in the game(that I am aware of)
  
  
• Twin Hammer Burial- I call a second hammer into my grasp. Then, one after another, I drive them down, in crushing arcs, pounding the monster's bones deep into the earth. They are nails. I am the force that buries them. Let them pray the ground is soft. Tags- Physical, Channeled, Recharges with Time, Fire
  
  
• Magma Breaker- My hammer meets the earth like a falling mountain. The ground erupts into a storm of molten rock and shattered earth. Even the titans stagger. Even giants kneel. Tags- Physical, Recharges with Time, Fire, Ranged, Sets Ablaze
  
  
• Toll of Ruin- A spectral hammer materializes, lunging to crush me- until I meet it with my own. The collision releases a thunderclap of sound, a wave that cracks not just bones, but minds. The air itself howls, and so do they. Tags- Physical, Area of Effect, Psychic, Recharges with Hits

  Spending a Knockback Charge summons a fiery explosion underneath the hit monster, dealing 50% of my physical damage as fire damage.

  The Boulder

  76-84

  Very Slow

  Every 10 meters Traveled grants a stack of Momentum, up to 20. My next strike consumes all stacks, boosting its damage by 15% per stack.

Single Dagger, newest weapon type added. So far, they are only Average or Fast speed, and they do moderate damage, not quite as low as you would think. They dont do as much as swords, but are close. They have a flair for the dramatic in their animations, slower than dual weapons, but still fast. They revolve between a swipe and a stab with every attack, so technically two hits per swing.

• Twin Fang Frenzy- I tear a second blade out of the void. Then, with both daggers keening for blood, I surrender to the frenzy, carving arcs through flesh and air alike. When the red haze thins, I bring both weapons down in a twin strike, splitting skulls with merciless finality. Tags- Recharges with Time, Channeled, Physical, Focusing
  
  
• Scarlet Sacrament- I slip the dagger into my own heart; a pulse of crackling power flows through the blade-every weakness in my foes now plain to see. Tags- Physical, Buff, Recharges with Time
  
  
• Deck of Knives- I split one dagger into three, fan them like a hand of cards, and hurl them in three swift motions. If a dagger lands, it brands the target with a mark that ensures the next strike will find the heart. Tags- Physical, Recharges with Hits, Focusing, Ranged

  Dagger type 2
  
  Exactly like the type 1 daggers, except these powers focus more on fire damage, instead of buff/debuffs.
  
  
• Harvesting Crescent- I wrench my dagger into the air as a rotating crescent of steel. Each enemy it reaps hones the edge more. Let them run. The blade always comes back deadlier. Tags- Physical, Fire, Sharpening, Ranged, Recharges with Hits
  
  
• Fang of the Furnace- Two cuts: One to open the flesh, the second to pour the fire in.Let their screams fan the flames inside me, Tags- Physical, Fire, Sets Ablaze, Sharpening, Recharges with Time
  A short cooldown double stab that grants Sharpening on every contact. Timing is a bit weird though, so might need some practice.
  
  
• Screams of the Magma Womb- I carve open a rift into a realm of fire-a jagged maw spewing molten fury. From its gullet vomits a storm of searing projectiles, each one wailing through the air like damned souls cast into the abyss. Tag- Fire, Sets Ablaze, Recharges with Time, Area of Effect

  Killing a monster makes the weapon burn with necrotic fire for 4 seconds. Releasing a Heavy Attack during this period unleashes a wave of necrotic fire, inflicting 2.5 stacks of Ablaze and 2.5 stacks of Poisoned to all enemies hit..

This is mostly a comment section, and a personal flair description of each of the powers that each of the weapons has. Mostly because I dont have room to explain how each power works, and sometimes, the description is a little misleading. Honestly, some of the names and descriptions of the powers just feels like its creeping into edgelord territory, just making cool sounding names for the sake of it. Otherwise, a fairly decent number of the powers are named and described fairly well.

Rune Infusion
Rune Infusion is a very useful skill. It lasts for a certain number of hits, or a certain amount of time. It causes rune strikes to happen more often, and for you to do increased damage as lightning, while also chaining lightning to other enemies when striking them.

Vortex
Vortex is a unique skill, and one that requires a certain level of battlefield control to be used well. As you throw out your weapon, you also lose control of it for a few second. Leaving you generally defenceless, dodge is your only means of defence, as block and parry depend on having the weapon in hand. You cannot strike enemies while it is spinning either. But it each strike adds to rune effects, causing them to cascade quickly and violently, and can also cause on hit effects, stacking them effectively. Use at your own risk.

Lightning Strike
The tried and true skill for Lightning. He floats back, becoming essentially invincible for a moment as time slows down. You are able to aim a bit to angle the shot more precisely, and after that moment is over, he lunges at the desired location, about 5-10m further than his starting point, dealing significant damage along the route. Do note, that while you seem relatively invincible while charging, you are NOT during the lunge.

Scorching Arc
The animation, while cool, is a little lengthy for a single attack. Though said attack is noticeably ranged, and fairly strong, allowing you to cause a status effect with powers instead of gear, which is an interesting choice. Though this could be used in sync WITH gear to compound effects.

Skewer
Dont let the awesome description fool you. Its a basic dash that leaves a fire trail. Given, it apparently makes you invulnerable, but you move pretty fast, so its hard to tell if your ignoring damage, or the enemies simply miss you. Its a solid 25m, give or take, dash though, and again, causes status effects, so its useful for a variety of things.

Flamebrand Flourish
A quick animation that sets the buff Empowered on the character. It seems like the animation itself might actually land a hit, and cause Ablaze.

Pounce
Exactly as described. A moderate distance jump, landing with two strikes, always crits. With a short cooldown, this is actually a pretty useful skill for triggering on crit effects.

Puncture Therapy
While a cool effect, requiring each strike to hit to gain the sharpening stack is a bit obtuse. Only really useful on tougher, tankier enemies, and risks being hit during the animation. It seems though, that it hits around 9-10 times, difficult to count. And yeah, they apparently do some lightning damage.

Deafening Taunt
The taunt doesnt actually "taunt" since you always have all the aggro anyway. It does do moderate damage in an area though, and staggers most enemies(I assume not bosses) while giving sharpening stacks, 4 to be exact. Mixed with Puncture Therapy, the amount of sharpening stacks could lead to fairly long periods of time with extra damage.

Drill
This one is a different version of the Skewer from the Sword type 2. You dash forward, doing damage along the path, but it has a slightly shorter distance, doesnt leave fire trails, doesnt make you invincible, but has a shooter cooldown.

Hundred Cut Massacre
What is that description though? More hands? ok. Basically, the skills causes you to swing rapidly for a couple seconds, causing multiple hits in rapid succession, stacking on hit effects quickly.

Sting of Cindervein
A power with both Fire AND Poison is sincerely build defining. Making a loadout specifically with both fire and poison could benefit from this skill alot. Otherwise, it functions exactly like Lightning Strike. Jump back, slow time for a second, aim, and lunge. Only its a few hits, instead of one big one.

Whirlwind
Whirlwind. Spin to Win. In first person, I was scared to be motion sick, but they basically just cause the weapon to fly around you as if you were spinning, but you get full control of your camera as per normal. Pretty nice, if you ask me. Just note, you technically lose control of the weapon, so no blocks or parries or attacks. Kinda like Vortex.

Thunderquake
Slams the ground, doing an aoe of damage. Grants 2 stacks of empower, and makes the next hit chain lightning. This skill has alot going on, all of it good.

Skyshatter
Think, Lightning's Strike, but with an aoe, instead of a single target. Try to hit the ground though, otherwise, you just fizzle out.

Twin Hammers Burial
Ok, so twin hammers is pretty cool. You dont just "summon" another hammer, you created another one by ripping the flame off your original. Then proceed to down swing repeatedly. over and over, about 8 times. The only issue for me, is the animation, though cool, is long. The attack speed and animation speed seems to be related to weapon speed though. I assume damage is as well.

Magma Breaker
You drag the ground with your hammer, ripping molten chunks out and throwing them at enemies. Leaves a fire in the spot it lands, and deals damage over time. Has short range, but does create an aoe DoT, which is useful.

Toll of Ruin
So you literally summon a copy of your weapon, and...give it a high five, essentially. Also, the only psychic damage power. Gotta be worth something.

Twin Fang Frenzy
So you do similar to Twin Hammers, and just magiacally generate a second dagger from the first. Then you rapidly attack, while buffing yourself with Sharpened. The power attacks around 8 times, with the last attack hitting twice, doing a crit.

Scarlet Sacrament
Its exactly what you think. You literally stab yourself, losing a heart charge, temporary or regular, and give yourself Sharpened, and giving you a temporary weapon buff. The advantage is, when stabbing yourself, you trigger any effects that happens when you take damage, such as Arcane Retribution, or Emerald Heart.

Deck of Knives
Duplicating your weapon and throwing it is cool. The short range is not. The added Sharpening buff is cool. The recharge on hit is not.

Harvesting Crescent
You boomerang your dagger, with decent range to it, and gain stacks of sharpened for every enemy hit along the way. Similar to Vortex, you lose control of the weapon, so be warned about that.

Fang of the Furnace
A short cooldown double stab that grants Sharpening on every contact. Timing is a bit weird though, so might need some practice.

Screams of the Magma Womb
Ok, awful name and description be damned, this skill could very well be amazing. It takes a second or two to get going, but when it does, it essentially creates a turret that lobs fire bolts at enemies constantly for like 10seconds. If they dont get slammed directly into the ground first. It has a long cooldown, though. I suggest trying to time it so you jump, while looking up directly, when the rift is opened, so it rains down the attacks in a more general localized area. This power could use some work.

Rings fill the last slot at the bottom of your Gearing Half Circle. They generally tend to have features that offer some sort of advanced defensive mechanism, or reprisal damage sources. All listed rings are aptly named "Ring of XXXX" so as with the runes, I will be simplifying their names for better organization.

• Arcane Retribution- Taking damage to a Temporary Heart Charge causes an explosion that deals 50 physical damage to monsters nearby.
  
• Bloody Ring- My hits restore 35% more Heart Charge, but each hit applies to me 0.1 stacks of Weakened.
  
• Crystalline Ring- Perfect Dash leaves an ice replica behind. When struck, it explodes, dealing 40 cold damage and applying 2.2 stacks of Freezing to nearby monsters. (havent found anything less than blue yet)
  
• Floating Butterfly- Perfect Dash conjures my illusory copy that slashes a random monster nearby, dealing 50% of my physical damage as lightning damage.
  
• Murder- Every 10.0 seconds applies a Marked effect on a random target nearby. Next hit to a Marked target is a guaranteed crit.
  
• Purging Shock- Each 9 seconds removes a stack of either Poisoned, Ablaze or Frozen effect and releases a shockwave that deals 60 physical damage.
  
• Rot- Poisoned monsters take 3 poison damage per Poisoned stack with each hit.

Secondary mods have been overhauled, and are now considered "Minor Augments". They are now available, multiple times, for each and every piece of gear, and can stack with other minors of the same type across the entire build. Some have been added, renamed, changed, or removed from the list to flesh out the features alot more.

Minor augments are unlocked by using the weapon, or finding duplicates, and then randomly unlocking them in the Augmentation section of the gear improvement menu. The 3 pages after the first unlocked prime augment are for minor augments, allowing the weapon to house three of the augments, picked form a master list of them, but unlocked and level randomly as you continure to level the weapon. Minor Augments can only reach +5 on any single item, and can only be equipped on that same item once, but can be stacked with every piece of gear equipped, making for a total of any minor augment having a capacity of +30.

The listed augments are in order the game has, not alphabetical.

• Focus Fire- Increases physical damage by 4.0 when fighting a single monster.
  
• Influx- Increases damage dealt by 8% for 3 seconds after using a power. Stacks.
  
• Suppress- Deal 9% more damage to monsters with more than 80% health.
  
• Execution- Deal 9% more damage to monsters with less than 20% health.
  
• Berserk- Increases physical damage by 5% for each missing heart charge.
  
• Head Hunting- Each monster killed increases physical damage by 3.0% until the end of battle.
  
• Opportunism- Every 12 successful light attack restores 1 Knockback Charge(s).
  
• Luck- Luck is increased by 2%.
  
• Resourcefulness- Amount of received Icbor is increased by 3%
  
• Crit Chance- Crit chance is increased by 1.0%.
  
• Crit Power- Crit power is increased by 10%.
  
• Physical Damage- Physical Damage is increased by 2%.
  
• All Damage- All Damage is increased by 1%.
  
• Fire Damage- Fire Damage is increased by 3%.
  
• Cold Damage- Cold Damage is increased by 3%.
  
• Lightning Damage- Lightning Damage is increased by 3%.
  
• Poison Damage- Poison Damage is increased by 3%.
  
• Psychic Damage- Psychic Damage is increased by 3%.

So as a newer edition to the "gear" in the game, soul fruit were added to the game when leveling got a major change. They are now placed across all the game worlds, and add a passive effect to your character when stuck on the "Talent Tree" which is located at the base, Amiract, in the Hall of Reflection.

So, as you gain levels from kills and quest completion, you gain "potential" which are the points that look like a downwards arrow, located under the level icon on the top left in the inventory screen. These points are used when you allocate a soul fruit to the talent tree. Each fruit takes a certain amount of potential to be active, and gaining levels is the best way to activate more and more fruit for a variety of effects. But dont worry, if you deactivate any fruit, it fully refunds your potential used in its allocation. These effects CAN stack by finding repeats of the fruit, though none of the soul fruits actually seem to respawn, so sadly, its up to the dev to decide how many fruit, what fruit they are, and where they are located. There are 30 slots for 30 different fruit, and you cannot put the same fruit on the tree twice. Considering I have only found 21 different fruit so far, and have done a fairly hefty amount of exploration, I cant image there are many more unique fruit to be found. Probably more in future updates. Or I'm legit missing 9 different fruit somehow.

The problem is, finding the fruit. Sadly, I have acquired a lot of them, and dont remember where I found them, so I will have to either make a different guide, and a new save to find them again, or leave it to someone else.

As it stands, it seems the inventory management of the fruits list them in the order you find them, so I am going to revert to making them alphabetical again. Since the fruits are all named "Soulfruit of the XXXXX", just like runes and rings, I'll be shortening their name to ensure easy organization. Some of these numbers might not be correct, as I am writing this with a stock of already obtained fruit, some already stacked 2 and 3 high, so I am going to try and base this on memory and educated guessing.

While I have a few hours in this game, technically, I have only completed some of the currently available content. I will be obviously playing the game, finding new/more gear, and trying to keep up with this guide until such a time that someone more competent finds the time to do a more thorough guide. Some of these statements in this guide do not reflect truth or reality, only what information I have on hand currently. I will be correcting any inconsistencies, incorrect descriptions, and maybe even adding more information(weapon reach, exaltation scaling changes, source info, etc) as time progresses.
