Equipment in the MMORPG Throne and Liberty is a key element that affects the strength of your character. To achieve maximum efficiency, it is important to understand the upgrade system, item quality levels and the process of upgrading them. In this guide we will tell you how to do this.
Quality and levels of equipment upgrades
Items of different quality levels are available in the game:
- Green (uncommon) – can be upgraded to level 6.
- Blue (rare) – can be upgraded to level 9.
- Purple (epic) – can be upgraded to level 12.
All items can be improved with the help of special resources. The higher the level of the item, the more rare materials will be required to improve it.
Advice: Don’t rush to upgrade epic equipment right away. Start with the green one, get it to level 6, then transfer the improvements to the blue item, which will immediately get level 3. Once you upgrade a blue item to level 9, you can then transfer those upgrades to a purple item, which will reach level 6.
Transferring improvements
Throne and Liberty has a mechanic for transferring upgrades from one item to another. For example, upgrades from a green item can be transferred to blue, and from blue to purple. This allows you to save resources, since the transfer requires only standard currency (sollant) and does not require rare materials.
This process makes leveling up equipment much easier. It is also possible to transfer upgrades between two epic items, allowing you to create powerful combinations with minimal cost.
By the way, one of the best places to farm solants, which players may not have enough of at the start and in the first month, is open-type dungeons, so it is recommended to spend all the points there, which increase the drop in these same dungeons
Weapon Selection
In the early stages of the game, it is worth choosing two main weapon combinations with which you will move towards the endgame. This is due to the fact that each of the seven types of weapons available in the game requires individual leveling and accumulation of ability points.
Reasons to choose a weapon in advance:
- Each weapon requires separate leveling.
- Weapons interact differently with your character’s stats, requiring you to constantly change builds and reassemble equipment when changing weapons.
- The best weapon combinations for PvE and PvP are proven combinations that top players are already using.
Improving equipment properties
Each item in Throne and Liberty can have up to three slots for additional properties (Traits). These properties range from improving critical strike chance to attack speed or increasing magic damage. Properties can be added and improved to make equipment even more powerful.
To activate the slot, you will need either a corresponding item containing the desired property, or a duplicate of equipment with similar characteristics. These properties can also be bought and sold at the auction house, although some equipment items cannot be sold.
Tip: If you have rare gems to unlock mod slots, it’s best to use them on the strongest items, such as those dropped by world bosses.
Increasing the level of equipment properties
To increase the level of properties, you can use items of the same or lower rarity that contain the desired property. But if the item is of lower quality, the chance of successful upgrade is reduced. For example, when trying to upgrade a purple item with a blue item, the chance of success is 10%, but for a green item it is only 1%.
If the upgrade fails, you will receive a cumulative “blessed charge” that increases your chances of success on subsequent attempts.
Important note: If you decide to use a blessing, it will be spent regardless of the outcome of the next upgrade attempt.
Guilds and PvP content
For players looking to maximize their performance, it is important to join a guild, as access to the best content, such as world bosses and PvP events, is directly dependent on participation in guild events.
Why join a guild:
- In PvP activities, such as castle sieges or transporting resources, you can earn Lucents (in-game currency purchased with real money).
- World bosses drop some of the best items in the game, which cost a lot of money at auction, but as part of a guild you can get them for free by actively participating in events.
Conclusion
To succeed in Throne and Liberty, it is important to be strategic about upgrading your gear. Use green items as a base for further upgrades, don’t waste resources, and always plan weapon combinations and builds in advance.
