What is Equipment?
In Idle Heroes, aside from leveling up, equipping your heroes with the right gear is crucial for boosting their stats. Each hero can wear items in six distinct equipment slots:
- Weapons
- Armor
- Shoes
- Accessories
- Artifacts
- Gems/stones (Treasures)
Artifacts are categorized into tiers, and within each tier, they share the same upgrading cost and engulf value. Artifacts are available in various rarities, listed here from the highest to the lowest:
- Orange
- Red
- Green
- Purple
- Yellow
- Blue
The Orange and Red artifacts represent the pinnacle of artifact tiers. Some artifacts are specifically designed for certain heroes, granting them unique abilities and stats when equipped. These exclusive artifacts are generally more potent than standard ones and come with an additional property exclusive to heroes from the corresponding faction, marked by the faction's icon.
For an enhanced gaming experience, players can enjoy Idle Heroes on a larger screen using a PC or laptop with BlueStacks, along with the precision of a keyboard and mouse.
