Dragon Nest: Rebirth of Legend is a thrilling mobile action RPG that reimagines the beloved Dragon Nest franchise for a new generation. Set in the mythical world of Althea, the game invites players to relive the epic journey of heroes as they battle fierce dragons, uncover lost legends, and protect the realm from chaos. Gearing is an important aspect of the game as the majority of your combat power depends on how well your character is geared. There are multiple types of equipment, and even more different enhancement processes you should know about. This guide will explain all the gearing mechanics in detail for new players to understand. Let’s begin!

What is Gearing in Dragon Nest: Rebirth of Legend?

Each character class in Dragon Nest: Rebirth of Legend can have multiple pieces of gear equipped to them. Players can equip any piece of gear by clicking on “Equip” after they have picked it or received it. You can view all your equipped gear by clicking on the “Character” menu from the right-hand side spinning wheel. In this section, you should be able to see 12 different slots for different types of gear, such as:

  • Tiara
  • Robe
  • Tights
  • Sleevelets
  • Boots
  • Pendant
  • Necklace
  • Earrings
  • Ring 1
  • Ring 2
  • Primary Weapon
  • Secondary Weapon

Each piece of gear in the game comes in a specific rarity and tier. The higher the rarity, defined by the color of the piece, the higher the amount of stats offered by equipping it to the character. Vice versa goes for higher tier equipment. Gear pieces can be farmed in-game by defeating boss dungeons or by participating in events that offer these as rewards. Players can also salvage their useless gear pieces to get more rewards but we will learn more about it later.

For now, you should understand that gearing is the best practice to get stronger and boost your character’s combat power. They offer a variety of stats to your character, and depending on the class you have chosen, they can enhance your playstyle significantly. Before we proceed to understand what gearing means, perhaps it’s best to know about the attributes first.

All Attributes in Dragon Nest: Rebirth of Legend

In Dragon Nest: Rebirth of Legend, attributes are the stats that are assigned to any character, regardless of their class. These are fixed stats that perform what they state in battles. The flow of battles is decided by the outcome of whose attributes are higher. Gear pieces directly enhance these attributes. Let’s take a brief look at the main attributes in the game:

  • STR – Boosting this stat increases your physical attack and crit damage.
  • AGI – Boosting this stat increases your physical attack and crit rate.
  • INT – Boosting this stat increases your magical attack, magic def, max MP, crit damage, and crit damage resistance.
  • CON – Boosting this stat increases your physical defense and MAX HP.
  • MOV SPEED – Boosting this stat increases your movement speed.
  • FINAL DAMAGE – Boosting this stat increases the bonus damage dealt.
  • Fire Def – Reduces incoming damage from fire-based attacks.
  • Water Def – Reduces incoming damage from water-based attacks.
  • Light Def – Reduces incoming damage from light-based attacks.
  • Dark Def – Reduces incoming damage from dark-based attacks.

Enhance your Gear

Players can go to the “Enhance” section from the spin wheel on the right-hand side. This option unlocks when you reach Level 9. Enhancing your acquired pieces of gear let’s you get more stats out of the piece. Now, enhancement works like a charm as it increases the value of sub-stats offered by the piece of gear. Depending on the quality of the gear piece, the amount of materials required also changes. The materials required to enhance any gear are Gold Coins, Silver Coins, and Copper coins. Depending on the rarity of the gear piece, you will require a mix of these 3 types of coins.

Players can get them from raiding dungeons, or salvaging unwanted gear pieces. Players can preview the enhancement to see the amount of stats gained before confirming enhancement. You can also choose to inherit some stats from a different gear piece. This is a more complicated process as it requires having duplicate gear.

Utilize the Forge to your Advantage

The Forge is perhaps the best place for crafting and acquiring new rare gear pieces. It unlocks after you reach account level 12. Players can use the Forge by clicking on the same from the spin wheel located on the right-hand side. Alternatively, you can visit the Blacksmith from the map. The Forge has all the gear pieces from all gear slots available to be crafted. All you need are the core materials that are required to craft them. You can hover over a gear piece to check the exact quantity and name of the required materials.

If you have the materials for it already, the gear piece will shine with a red dot, indicating it is ready to be crafted. The Forge becomes more useful at higher levels when you raid dungeons together with your friends. The rare materials are only available at the higher levels, so make sure to team up with friends to defeat more difficult bosses.

Players can enjoy playing Dragon Nest: Rebirth of Legend on a bigger screen of their PC or Laptop via BlueStacks along with your keyboard and mouse.
