Power-Up and Upgrade Your Gears Part 6 Glow Effect - Battle of the Immortals (BoI)

The gear upgrade system in BoI is quite complicated with many items and many methods of upgrades. Nevertheless, the gear system is THE most important part of the game where your customization will either break or make your characters. It is important for all the players to get familiarize with Battle of the Immortals gear upgrade system.

I have broken these guides into four parts, which include (1) Fortification, (2) Gem Embedding, (3) Stardust and Starword, (4) Blessing, (5) Soul Insignia Charm, and finally

(6) the cosmetic Glow effect. This guide will detail Part 6 of the BoI gear Activate Glow and Starwords process.

6. Glow Effect.

Your gear need to be fortified to at least +4. Only Mail, Greaves, Gloves, and Boots can be activated with the Glow effect.

Level 1-59 gears use 1 glow stone.

Level 60-89 gears use 2 glow stones.

Level 90 gears use 3 glow stones.

Level 105 gears use 4 glow stones.

Power-Up and Upgrade Your Gears Part 2 Gem Embedding - Battle of the Immortals (BoI)

2. Gem Embedding
Requirement:

The gear that you want to embed gems into must have available gem lots obtained via Fortification. Then you need to use the correct defensive or offensive gems into the corresponding equipment as follows:

Defensive gems: armor, helm, pauldrons, greaves, belt, and boots.

Offensive gems: weapons, gloves, rings, necklaces and pendants.

Failure Chance:

Inserting a gem into a slot has a 50% success rate, where failure destroys the gem. This can be avoided using an Embed Charm. The Embed Charm can be obtained via the monsters in the Thor’s Altar defense event or bought from the ZEN Marketplace.

Perfect Embed:

A gem can be embed perfectly by chance which will add an additional 10% bonus to the gem stats. The non-perfect embbed gem can be made perfect by using a Gem polisher. The level 1, 2, and 3 Gem Polisher can be obtained via the monsters in the Thor’s Altar defense event. Level 1 through 8 can be bought via ZEN and Salary Marketplace.

Gem Removal:

A gem can be removed from the gear using a Removal Charm. It should be noted that this does not remove the boundness of the gem and the gear. Level 1 and 2 Removal Charm can be obtained via the Adventure Coin at Vaphere. Level 1 through 3 can be obtained via the monsters in the Thor’s Altar defense event. Level 2 through 5 can be bought from ZEN marketplace. Level Super can be bought from the Salary Marketplace.

Obtaining Gems:

Gems can be obtained from Specter Island, Fallen Darkness, and other locations. However, bounded level 2 gems can be bought from the Salary Marketplace.

Gem Level Up:

Gems have their own levels which can offer greater bonuses at higher levels. You can combine gems of the same level plus a Gem Talisman at Dyana. The Level 1 and 2 Gem Talisman can be obtained via the Bountyhunter Chest and bound version can be obtained via the Adventurer Coin at Vaphere. Level 2 through 4 can be bought from the ZEN Marketplace. Level Super can be bought from the Salary Marketplace. The success rate of combining is 50% for 3 gems, 75% for 4 gems and 100% for 5 gems.

Using 5 gems is the most advantageous method because it generates the safest result. 5 gems of the same type combine into another gem of the same type. The result is random if you do not use the same gems.

Power-Up and Upgrade Your Gears Part 1 Fortification - Battle of the Immortals (BoI

Power-Up and Upgrade Your Gears Part 1 Fortification - Battle of the Immortals (BoI)

1. Fortify

What is Fortify:

Fortification improves the main attributes for your gears which are shown as the stats in white text.

How Do You Fortify:
This can be done by going to NPC Johnny at (213,188) in Atlantis Square. You will need to have fortifying crystal and coins to complete your fortification. You can use up to 6 fortification crystals which can increase your success chance accordingly. There are additional items which protect you against fortification failures such as Fortify Charm and F-Protect. I will discuss those items shortly later in the guide.

Fortification Crystals:

Fortify Crystals can be obtained by combining 5 Fortify Crystal Shards or as drops from Chief or Lord monsters under level 75.

Major Fortify Crystals have higher success rate and can be obtained from the item shop. These have a much higher success rate.

Success:
Your equipment increases 1 level of fortification and additional gem slots may open at +4, +7, and +10.

Failure:
Your equipment loses all levels of fortification when the process fails. It should be noted that if you have embed a gem and you fail the fortification which loses the gem slot. The gem or the gem slot is not destroyed.

Protection Against Failures:

Use the item Fortify Charm while upgrading your equipment. Your fortification failure will only cause your equipment to go down by one fortification level. The Fortify Charm is obtained via the Marketplace.

F-Protect can also be used to protect you against failures. They can be obtained in the following ways:

Level 4 and 5 via World Tree Garden

Level 8 by combining 100 Seal Stabilizer, 4 Blade of Seal, and 1 Seal Scroll

Level 6, 7, 8, 9 via the ZEN Marketplace

Level 6, 8, 10 via the Credit Marketplace

Gear Fortification Chance:
The chance of fortifying your gear successfully is determined both by the current fortification level and the number and type of fortification crystals that you use. The chance of success becomes lower as your gear’s fortification level increases.

Below is an example of the chance you get for using major fortification crystals:

Level 0 + 1 Major fortification crystal = 100%

Level 1 + 1 Major fortification crystal = 100%

Level 2 + 2 Major fortification crystal = 100%

Level 3 + 4 Major fortification crystal = 100%

Level 4 + 6 Major fortification crystal = 76%

Level 5 + 6 Major fortification crystal = 48%

Level 6 + 6 Major fortification crystal = 32%

Level 7 + 6 Major fortification crystal = 27%

Level 8 + 6 Major fortification crystal = 23%

Level 9 + 6 Major fortification crystal = 20%

Note: This calculation is based on the Chinese version and I do not know if these chances apply to the US version.

Stats Bonus:
Level 1: 6%

Level 2: 14%

Level 3: 24%

Level 4: 36%

Level 5: 50%

Level 6: 66%

Level 7: 84%

Level 8: 104%

Level 9: 126%

Level 10: 150%

Gem Slots:
+4 – 2nd Gem slot becomes available.

+7 – 3rd Gem slot becomes available.

+10 – 4th Gem slot becomes available.
