Introduction to Artifacts and Hero Attributes

Artifacts and Hero Attributes are features introduced in version 1.2.78 (December 2015) that modify the way a hero behaves in battle.

Hero Attributes are inbuilt factors / weightings that influence the behavior of a hero in battle. The values for these are set according to hero type and evolution generation (including unevolved heroes).

Hero Attributes are Accuracy (ACC), Dodge and Critical Hit Rate (CRIT, CRIT DMG and CRIT Resist). Details about these can found in the section Hero and Artifact Attributes.

Artifacts are a group of 6 tools, each with 5 upgradable levels through the use of Merits (see Upgrade Cost/Might), that influence / enhance Hero Attributes and hero behavior according to the abilities of each Artifact type and level. The Level Up screen shows a possible upgrade path from Lv5 to Lv6, but (until it changes) Level 6 is "Locked" and cannot yet be accessed.

Artifacts are able to influence such things as reducing DMG taken, reducing a targets ATK, Dodge Rate, MOV SPD, ATK SPD, provide a chances of stun immunity, increasing CRIT, increasing ATK, increasing ACC, chances to silent a target for a short period, increase Max HP and HP recovery.

NOTE: Artifacts can only be used by evolved heroes and cannot be accessed or managed if you do not have any evolved heroes and some options / icons may not be visible.

Evolved heroes are able to enhanced their behavior / Attributes, or counter a targets / attackers behavior, when assigned to an Artifact.

Each Artifact type is locked and will not be available to be unlocked until its set requirements are achieved. When the requirements have been fulfilled you can then choose to unlock it. Once unlocked, it remains so with the only restriction now being having enough Merits to upgrade each level.

Each Artifact type has a fixed number of slots. This means that there will be a fixed limitation to how many evolved heroes can be assigned to each Artifact type. Evolved heroes can be assigned to an available slot on an unlocked Artifact. This means that an evolved hero can only be assigned to a single Artifact, i.e. a hero can not be assigned to many Artifacts.

You are not locked into a hero Artifact asignment so you are free to change assignments and unassigned heroes on Artifact whenever you want.

Hero Attributes with their base values (see Accessing Artifacts and Hero Attributes on how to access these)

About Hero Attributes

Each hero (evolved and unevolved) has base attributes with individual base values according to the hero type and evolution generation (for details on how to access these see Accessing Artifacts and Hero Attributes).

The following is an overview of the hero attribute (details and explanations for these can be found in the section Hero and Artifact Attributes):

ACC	Accuracy weighting for opposing / reducing the dodge in a target hero.
Dodge	Dodge weighting for avoiding attacks / debuffs etc.
CRIT	The chance of dealing a critical hit (CRIT DMG).
CRIT DMG	The critical hit damage dealt factor (multiplier).
CRIT Resist	The factor for reducing the chance of taking a critical hit (CRIT DMG) from an attacking hero.

NOTE: The values that are shown on the hero are before any enhancement and will not reflect the influence / enhancing gained from the use of an Artifact.

For evolved heroes these "attributes" can be enhanced or made use of by use of different Artifacts.

Accessing Artifacts and Hero Attributes

Access Heroes Attributes / Artifacts from the Heroes Altar
Press the icon to see the heroes attributes and access artifacts (ALL heroes have attributes and can be accessed from this regardless of if they are evolved or not).

Artifacts can be accessed from two places:

1. From the Artifacts Icon shown below (right of Replenish) Relic Hall (this may not show if you do not have any evolved heroes
2. From a hero in the Heroes Altar by clicking on the Icon on the Hero the selecting Proceed.

Notes on Eye of Garuda's Silence

When Eye of Garuda's Silence is activated, it will only impact a single target. For the period of the silencing, that target will still be able to move and carry out normal attacks and any existing proc (activated skill) the target has will continue unsilenced. For the target, the silencing:

1. Silences (prevents) Proc'ing (does not allow the skill to activate)
• Target will not be able to proc'ing (be unable to activate its skill).
• Does not silence a skill that has already proc'ed, ie, a skill that is already in progress will not be silenced.
2. Silences (prevents) reactive Talents / Crests such as:
• Life Drain, Revive, Scatter?, Self Destruct?, Slow Down?
• Flame Guard, Scorch?, Blade Shell?, Psyshield?, Heavy Blow?
• Deadly Strike?, Corrode, Heaven's Wrath, Condemnation?
3. It is unknown if it silences an artifact?
4. It is unknown if it silences buffs?

Silence is unlikely to have any impact (not silence) passive enhancing Talents / Crests such as (but this has not yet been verified):

• Not silence: Tenacity?, Bulwark?, War God?
• Not silence: Berserk, Stone Skin, Sprint

Hero and Artifact Attributes

All Heroes have some Accuracy by default. The other attributes will be unlocked later on along with new features. (Each Hero has a different Accuracy value. Accuracy is increased each time the Hero evolves.)

Hero and Artifact Attributes Contents:

ACC Accuracy (ACC) CRIT (Critical) Critical Damage (CRIT DMG) Critical Hit (CRIT) Critical Resist (CRIT Resist) Dodge

ACC (Accuracy)

ACC is short for Accuracy and is primarily enhanced by the artifact Eye of Garuda which is used for opposing Dodges (artifact Lightning Rock) . For further details about ACC please see attribute descriptions below.

Accuracy (ACC)

Increases the hit rate of basic attacks and skills:

Hit Rate = [ 1 + ( ACC / 10,000 ) ] * ( 100% + Artifact )

If you’re attacking a target with Dodge, Actual Hit Rate = Hit Rate - Target’s Dodge rate. For example, if the Hit Rate of Druid is 110% and the target has a Dodge rate of 30%, the actual Hit Rate of Druid when he attacks the target is 80%.

CRIT (Critical)

CRIT is short for Critical / Critical Hit and relates to:

• CRIT DMG (Critical Damage): increasing DMG done from CRIT hits.
• CRIT [Hit] (Critical Hit) : increasing the CRIT rate.
• CRIT Resist (Critical Resist): resisting a CRIT / reducing an attackers CRIT Hit rate when being attacked by a hero with CRIT.

Note: The hero's Base CRIT attribute value (CRIT DMG) is currently not shown in the current version (1.2.78) but is suspected to be around 1.5x (150%) and to vary between hero types and evolution generations.

In summary, CRIT is represented by the combination of these two factors:

Chance / Rate	=    CRIT (Hit) - CRIT Resist
DMG	=    Heroes ATK * CRIT DMG

For further details please see the following attribute descriptions.

Critical Damage (CRIT DMG)

Increases the amount of damage dealt in a critical hit. Heroes with higher CRIT DMG deal higher damage when they do a critical hit.

Critical Hit (CRIT)

Also referred to as CRIT, CRIT Rate, CRIT Hit and CRIT Hit Rate, increases the chance (rate) of dealing a critical hit and is enhanced by the artifact Axe of Strife. Heroes with higher CRIT have a higher chance to deal critical hits.

Critical Rate (see Critical Hit)

Critical Hit (Rate) is the same as Critical Hit (CRIT). See Critical Hit (CRIT) for Critical Rate details. .

Critical Resist (CRIT Resist)

Reduces the chance of taking a critical hit. Heroes with higher CRIT Resist have a lower chance of taking critical hits.

Dodge (Dodge)

Dodge: increases the chance of dodging attacks and is primarily enhanced by the artifact Lightning Rock:

Dodge rate= ( Dodge / 10,000 ) * ( 100% + Artifact )

Note: When Dodge activates, your Heroes can avoid getting hit by basic attacks, skills, and even some conditions. Dodge is effective against dodging / avoiding basic attacks which include:

• Hero skills including DMG, debuffs and disabling
• Stun, Fear, Silence
• decreases in MOV SPD and ATK SPD (debuffs)
• Energy reduction (excludes Scatter and Corrode)
• increases in DMG taken / incoming DMG
• boost / buff removal
• Guild Boss instant kills.

Dodge will not work against :

• deflected damage (such as the talents Flame Guard and Blade Shell, or Hero skills)
• conditions inflicted by the talents Corrode, Heaven’s Wrath, and Condemnation
• damage and conditions inflicted by Traps and Defensive buildings (DMG)
• Energy reduction from the talent Scatter
• damage and conditions caused by Spells.
