What is Equipment?

Beyond leveling up, equipping your heroes with the right gear is crucial for amplifying their specific stats. In Idle Heroes, each hero can be outfitted with equipment across six distinct slots:

  • Weapons
  • Armor
  • Shoes
  • Accessories
  • Artifacts
  • Gems/stones (Treasures)

Artifacts, which are crucial to your heroes' strength, come in various tiers, each with uniform upgrading costs and engulf values. Here's a breakdown of artifact rarities from the highest to the lowest:

  • Orange
  • Red
  • Green
  • Purple
  • Yellow
  • Blue

The Orange and Red artifacts represent the pinnacle of artifact tiers. Additionally, some artifacts are hero-specific, granting special abilities and stats when equipped to the right hero. These exclusive artifacts are generally more potent than their standard versions and offer an additional property unique to heroes from the correct faction, highlighted by the relevant faction icon.

For an enhanced gaming experience, consider playing Idle Heroes on a larger screen using your PC or laptop with BlueStacks, complemented by the precision of a keyboard and mouse.
