23 itemsAbout the Game
Forge your gear, feast at the tavern, take up the guild's quests.
Plunge into the abyss, seize its treasures, slay the masters that lurk within.
Every relic you claim — offer it to the factions, or keep it as your own arsenal.
Alliances forged, grudges earned, rivals breathing down your neck.
A shifting power map, redrawn by your every choice.
Turn it all into strength, and descend even deeper——
Your Choices Determine Friend and Foe —— Dynamic Agency
Relic Offerings: Surrender your treasures to earn a faction's trust — or keep them hidden and turn them into power. Your call shapes the story and the rewards.
Rival Party Encounters: Other parties roam the dungeon with their own agendas. Cross paths with them, and anything can happen.
Faction Hub Expansion: The more you contribute to a faction, the more they offer in return — exclusive gear unlocks, facility upgrades, and growing influence.
Read the Battle, Turn the Tide —— Tactical Command Battle
Break & Follow-up System: Exploit enemy weaknesses to shatter their guard, triggering ally follow-up attacks that lock them down and leave them helpless.
Counter & Parry: Time your inputs to nullify incoming damage and immediately strike back with a devastating counterattack.
The Crawl & Craft Cycle: Gather materials in the dungeon, craft and appraise gear at your hub — then dive back in stronger than before.
Push Past Your Limits —— Build & Loot
Classless Character Creation: Mix and match race, stats, appearance, weapon proficiency, and backstory to forge a playstyle entirely your own — no class restrictions, no compromises.
Vast Constellation Skill Tree: Chart your own path through a sprawling, non-linear skill tree to build combinations that transcend any single class archetype.
Random Affixes: Every piece of equipment rolls its own set of abilities — even two weapons of the same name can play completely differently.
