Hero Gear
Each hero wears 4 pieces of gear (Goggles, Boots, Gloves and Belt). Once a piece is Mythic, it improves along two separate tracks — and some heroes also have an exclusive weapon. This guide covers what each costs, per piece and per hero.
Plan exact levels hero by hero with the Hero Gear calculator.
Mastery Forging (Essence Stones)
Forging runs from level 1 to 20. Each level costs ten times its number in Essence Stones, and from level 11 it also consumes spare Mythic Gear pieces. At forging level 10 the piece ascends from Mythic to red.
| Forging level | Essence Stones | Mythic Gear |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10 | — |
| 2 | 20 | — |
| 3 | 30 | — |
| 4 | 40 | — |
| 5 | 50 | — |
| 6 | 60 | — |
| 7 | 70 | — |
| 8 | 80 | — |
| 9 | 90 | — |
| 10 | 100 | — |
| 11 | 110 | 1 |
| 12 | 120 | 2 |
| 13 | 130 | 3 |
| 14 | 140 | 4 |
| 15 | 150 | 5 |
| 16 | 160 | 6 |
| 17 | 170 | 7 |
| 18 | 180 | 8 |
| 19 | 190 | 9 |
| 20 | 200 | 10 |
Per piece that's 2,100 Essence Stones and 55 Mythic Gear. The first ten levels cost only 550 of those stones — the second half is where the real cost is, and where spare Mythic Gear comes in.
Mithril Empowerment
The second track has 5 milestones, at +20, +40, +60, +80 and +100. Each costs Mithril plus spare Mythic Gear:
| Milestone | Mithril | Mythic Gear |
|---|---|---|
| +20 | 10 | 3 |
| +40 | 20 | 5 |
| +60 | 30 | 5 |
| +80 | 40 | 10 |
| +100 | 50 | 10 |
Per piece: 150 Mithril and 33 Mythic Gear.
Exclusive weapons
Some Mythic heroes have an exclusive weapon with 10 levels. It's paid in that hero's own Widgets — 275 to max. The amounts are the same for every hero; only the Widget item differs.
One hero, fully built
Both tracks on all 4 pieces come to 8,400 Essence Stones, 600 Mithril and 352 spare Mythic Gear — plus 275 Widgets if the hero has an exclusive weapon.
How to plan
- Count your spare Mythic Gear. Both tracks draw on the same spare pieces, so check how many you have before planning forging past level 10 or the higher Mithril milestones.
- Focus your main heroes. A fully built hero is a large investment; put it where the hero will actually fight.
- Plan per hero. The Hero Gear calculator adds heroes one by one, pre-fills each piece's current levels from your saved loadout, and totals what's still needed.
