Jewels and upgrades
Guide
Jewels make your gear stronger. Bless and Soul raise an item's level, Life adds or raises an item option, and the Chaos Goblin uses Chaos, Bless and Soul to make bigger upgrades, up to +13.

Requirements
- The jewel and the item in your bag or inventory.
- Zen for the Chaos Goblin mixes.
- Bless and Soul work on weapons, shields, armour and wings. The game does not offer them for rings or pendants.

Jewel of Bless
Bless is the safe jewel. It never fails and never lowers your item.
| Item level before | Item level after | Bless used | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| +0 | +1 | 1 | 100% |
| +1 | +2 | 1 | 100% |
| +2 | +3 | 1 | 100% |
| +3 | +4 | 1 | 100% |
| +4 | +5 | 1 | 100% |
| +5 | +6 | 1 | 100% |
- Bless stops at +6. An item at +6 or higher will not take it.
- Bless does not gain anything from Luck or from a Charm of Luck.
Jewel of Soul
Soul is the risky jewel. It has a 50 percent chance on each try.
| Item level before | Chance | With Luck | With Luck and a Charm of Luck | If the try fails |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| +0 to +5 | 50% | 75% | 75% | The jewel is gone. The item stays the same. |
| +6 | 50% | 75% | 85% | The jewel is gone. The item stays the same. |
| +7 and +8 | 50% | 75% | 85% | The jewel is gone. The item drops to +0. |
What to know:
- A Soul try works on any item from +0 up to +8. It makes the item one level higher.
- An item with the Luck option gets +25 points on each Soul try.
- A Charm of Luck adds 10 points, but only from +6 on. Below +6 the charm stays in your bag.
- One charm is used per try. The rest of the stack stays in your bag.
- A failed try at +7 or +8 drops the item to +0. Think before you try at those levels.
Jewel of Life
Life adds an option to an item that has none, or raises the option by one level.
- Base chance is 50 percent. A Charm of Luck adds 10 points.
- The client only offers Life on an item while its option level is below 7.
- None of the upgrade mixes on this page uses Life. You use it by putting the jewel on the item.
- The Life Stone mix uses Bless and Soul, not Life. See the table below.
Chaos Goblin upgrade mixes (+10 to +13)
Above +9, the upgrade moves to the Chaos Goblin. Put the item and the jewels in the mix window and press the mix button. Each step needs one more Jewel of Bless and one more Jewel of Soul, plus one Jewel of Chaos.
| Mix | Item in | Chaos | Bless | Soul | Zen | Base success | With Luck | With Luck and a Charm of Luck |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| +10 | Item at +9 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 2,000,000 | 60% | 85% | 95% |
| +11 | Item at +10 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 4,000,000 | 60% | 85% | 95% |
| +12 | Item at +11 | 1 | 3 | 3 | 6,000,000 | 55% | 80% | 90% |
| +13 | Item at +12 | 1 | 4 | 4 | 8,000,000 | 55% | 80% | 90% |
Things that lower your chance:
- An Excellent item takes 10 points off.
- An Ancient item takes 10 points off.
- A Guardian item (the 380 option) takes 10 points off.
Things that go wrong:
- If the mix fails, the item and every jewel in the mix are lost.
- Charms are the exception. A stack of charms keeps the ones you did not use.
Other Chaos Goblin mixes that use jewels
| Mix | What you put in | Zen | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fruits | 1 Jewel of Creation, 1 Jewel of Chaos | 3,000,000 | 90% |
| Dinorant | 10 Horn of Uniria, 1 Jewel of Chaos | 500,000 | 70% |

| Potion of Bless | 1 Jewel of Bless | 100,000 | 100% |
| Potion of Soul | 1 Jewel of Soul | 50,000 | 100% |
- The Chaos Weapon and the first-level wings take a Jewel of Chaos. They use one charm of luck if you have one. Their success depends on the items you put in.
- The second-level wings and the Cape of Lord also take a Loch's Feather, one first-level wing and one Jewel of Chaos. A Charm of Luck adds 10 points.
Chaos Machine limit
The top upgrade is +13. The +14 and +15 mixes are switched off on our server. No Chaos Goblin offers them, so no item goes past +13 through the mix window.
Luck, skill, excellent and ancient
- Luck. An item with Luck shows "+Luck" in its name. Luck adds 25 points on a Soul try and on the +10 to +13 mixes.
- Skill. The Dinorant mix always gives its skill on our server.
- Excellent. Excellent items have extra options. In the upgrade mixes they take 10 points off the chance.
- Ancient. Ancient items come from ancient sets, such as the Ancient Helm. In the upgrade mixes they take 10 points off the chance, like Excellent items.
Durability and repair
- Armour wears down when you take hits. Weapons wear down when you hit. The exact rate is not on this page.
- Wings with 0 durability do not fly.
- Worn wings do not lose durability over time. Rings and pendants still lose durability over time outside town.
- You can repair at the repair NPCs:
- Eo the Craftsman in Noria.
- Zienna The Weapons Merchant in Devias.
- Hanzo the Blacksmith in Lorencia.
- The repair price depends on the item's value and how worn it is.
Pets
| Pet | At 0 durability | Repair |
|---|---|---|
| Dark Horse | Stays, loses 10 percent experience | Recover at the Pet Trainer |
| Dark Raven | Stays, loses 10 percent experience | Recover at the Pet Trainer |
| Guardian Angel | Destroyed | Not repairable |
| Imp | Destroyed | Not repairable |
| Horn of Uniria | Destroyed | Not repairable |
| Horn of Dinorant | Destroyed | Not repairable |
The Pet Trainer stands in Lorencia and in Crywolf Fortress.
Strategy
- Use Bless first. It never fails, so you can get from +0 to +6 without risk.
- Soul only after +6 if you have Luck. A failed try at +7 or +8 drops the item to +0.
- Buy Charm of Luck from the coin shop before the +10 mix or a Soul try at +6. One charm is used per try.
- Keep Zen for the mixes. A failed +12 or +13 costs 6,000,000 or 8,000,000 Zen plus the jewels.
Tips
- Check the item level in the window before you press the mix button.
- Remove Excellent and Ancient items from a +10 mix if you want the best chance.
- Keep spare Bless and Soul jewels. A failed mix takes every jewel in it.
