Hey, if anyone sees this thread, please post what the names, colors, and powers of the gear pieces you get are. I’m looking for more data on what exactly is possible before I try to implement gear into the compendium.

Here’s my gear (I’ve wrapped the Blue number from the description in curly braces, this indicates the value increases with evolution or higher base rarity):

  • Dwarven Hammer (Green Weapon)
    • Poison Magic +2
    • Solid 2 (2% less damage from a blocked melee or missile attack)
    • Dwarven Hammer: {+30%} chance to stun enemy for 1 turn when matching size V+ Poison Gem.
    • NOTE: From what I can tell the color of the weapon is random, which means there’s a low chance to get a purple or yellow variant of this, which would be absurdly powerful on Assassin or Paladin respectively.
  • Warlord’s Mantle (Purple Shoulders)
    • Dark Magic +2
    • Cleave 2 (20% increased Critical Damage)
    • Spiked Shoulders: Reflect back {10%} delee damage
  • Bloodfang Breastplate (Red Chestplate)
    • Fire Magic +2
    • Cover 2 (2% missile resistance)
    • Evil Spiked Breastplate: Create {2} Blue Gems when hit with melee damage
  • Royal Armor (Red Chestplate)
    • Fire Magic +2
    • Cleave 2 (20% increased Critical Damage)
    • Plate Armor: Gain {+1%} Eltie protection when matching a Big Gem
  • Serpentine Pants (Blue Leggings)
    • Ice Magic +2
    • Life 2 (+4 Vitality)
    • Serpentine Pants: Gain {5} Armor when you cast a green spell
  • Runic Boots (Red Boots)
    • Fire Magic +2
    • Strong 2 (+4 Power)
    • Runic Boots: Gain {1%} speed when I cast a spell
  • Jeweled Tower (Green Shield)
    • Poison Magic +2
    • Cover 2 (2% missile resistance)
    • Tower Shield: Create {2} yellow gems when I block
  • Savior’s Locket (Green Necklace)
    • Poison Magic +2
    • Solid 2 (2% less damage from a blocked melee or missile attack)
    • Poison Golden Locket: Gain {+2} Healing Boost when casting a spell

From what I’ve seen of the game data, I can confirm this.

Some more notes on gear.

From what I’ve seen so far, items with the same name have the same special ability. However, they can have different colors (which will affect the color of the ability if relevant) as well as randomized passive perks. Thus there are multiple layers of RNG inherent in getting a good weapon.

This “color is fully random” theory is backed up by the fact that in the assets, gear looks like this:

icon_evil spiked breastplate_00 icon_evil spiked breastplate_00_sub

In game it ends up looking like this. You can see that the second image is tinted to match the color that the gear piece dropped with, which is how it has a red glow.

From what I’ve seen, I can conclude that gear, even Legendary or Mythic gear, will not drop with just one specific color.

Edited my gear post above following your format. Interesting patterns emerge.

Here’s some more detail in above format. (How’d you not have space between the item name and attributes?)

  • Serpentine Shield (Red Shield)

    • Fire Magic +2
    • Life +2 (Gain a bonus to your Vitality, increasing your max life)
    • Fanged Shield: Gain {10%} block amount if there are 8+ Green Gems on the board.

  • Firewalker’s Belt (Purple Belt)

    • Dark Magic +2
    • Life +2 (Gain a bonus to your Vitality, increasing your max life)
    • Sun Belt: {1%} to Burn the enemy at the start of my turn for each Red Gem on the board.

  • Firewalker’s Ring (Purple Ring)

    • Dark Magic +2
    • Life +2 (Gain a bonus to your Vitality, increasing your max life)
    • Glowing Opal Ring: Create {1} Red Gems Every Turn

so we can say, a gear will have:

Basic stats, one of following: attack damage, armor, resistance, block
Mastery bonus, every gear above rare will have a RANDOM colored mastery bonus
Affixes, every gear have up to 3 RANDOM affixes, depends on rarity.
Passive, every gear will have a FIXED passive, which appears at rare.

So the information we needed will be:
A list of affixes
A list of gear passive(sorted by item set or item type)

This is correct from what I’ve seen.

Also to note, I believe you are able to farm for specific gear pieces (and thus specific gear passives) from dungeons. Note the rewards tab to see that each one has different gear sets.

I am personally farming Dungeon 1 since it’s easiest for my alt hero, and using Dungeon Tickets on #4 in the hopes that I receive a purple variant of the Dwarven Hammer.

Does anyone else feel like some of these modifying percentages are way too low for Rare gear? In other games, 5-7% is usually the base modifier percentage, and goes up to 35-50%.

10

It definitely feels a bit low, but there are 3 rarities above rare. It would be at least 3 modifiers with 5% each for mythic gear, times 12 for every slot. That is around 60% for 3 different fields.
