The mysterious force found you to sign a contract because of your potential, hoping that you will perform the Swarm hunting mission and provide the power of the contract to help you become stronger. You can increase basic attributes through the power of the contract, or you can purchase props, skills, ammunition, etc. through the contract points to improve your combat effectiveness.
1. Magic Chariot & Light Inventory Management
That's right—you pilot a Chariot! A majestic chariot always gives us more security. Fill your equipment slots with weapons and items and pour your firepower onto the enemy!
One point to note: our game demands more focus on build strategy. You'll need to figure out the best combinations within limited gear slots to ensure the most comfortable combat experience.
2. Style Route Selection
To enhance strategic depth, we've added a Route Map mechanic. You can choose paths rich with Elites, challenging higher difficulty for better economy; or you can opt for routes with more Encounters and Treasures, reducing combat difficulty while relying on luck to gain more resources.
3. Abundant Synthesis Recipes
Besides directly purchasing higher-tier items, you can also synthesize new gear by consuming 2 to 4 lower-tier items! Furthermore, you can use Mutated Runes for a chance to transform low-level items directly into higher-tier ones through luck!
4. Deep Build Strategy
Through smart combinations, you can craft devastating, infinitely powerful builds, such as the Endless Lightning Ball Stream!
