PW Warborn Gear and Progression Guide
Every character is level 105, so power comes from gear. Crucible crafting never fails: as long as you have all the materials, the result is guaranteed.
1. Upgrade map
| Part | Starting gear → top | NPC (in the hub) | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Armor (4 slots) | ★ → ★★ → ★★★ | Crucible Armorer | 250 then 500 WM + 1 Ascendant Core per step |
| Helm | Crown of Madness → ★★★ Helm | Crucible Armorer | 1,000 WM + Moon Stone of Punishment + Sovereign Core |
| Weapon | T4 → T5 Offensive/Defensive | Relicforger Vaelric | 2,000 WM + Bloodforged Shard |
| Ring | Devour → Starchaser Jade: Entropy | Light Envoy Jade Snow | 1,000 WM + Starheart |
| Necklace | Badge of the Cube → Celestial Resonance Ring | Light Envoy Jade Snow | 1,000 WM + Oathseal |
| Belt | Destroyer → Exotic Chaos Belt | Light Envoy Jade Snow | 1,000 WM + Oathseal |
| Wings | Wings of Ascension → Revered Wings | Light Envoy Jade Snow | 1,000 WM + Ashweave |
| Pixie | Starting Pixie → Paramount | Light Envoy Jade Snow | 1,000 WM + Soulflare |
| Bless Box | → Invincible / Fearless Blessing | Light Envoy Jade Snow | 500 WM + Graceflame |
| Tome | Bound Bible → Emperor | Codex Bindery | 1,000 WM + Codex Catalyst |
Armor must be upgraded step by step: ★ → ★★ → ★★★.
2. Refine and gems when upgrading
| Upgrade | Refine, sockets, gems |
|---|---|
| Armor, T4 weapon Regrade | Carried over automatically, free |
| Helm, T4 → T5 weapon, T5 reforge, ring reforge | Can be carried over, but there is an inheritance fee. Check the upgrade window before you click |
3. Armor
Numbers are Defense / Magic Defense, on the body armor.
| Type | ★ | ★★ | ★★★ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heavy (Lionheart) | 2358 / 1010 | 2428 / 1040 | 2512 / 1075 |
| Light (Ashura) | 1050 / 1570 | 1081 / 1620 | 1118 / 1675 |
| Magic (Archangel) | 328 / 2360 | 338 / 2430 | 349 / 2515 |
The other armor pieces go up in the same proportion. The armor tier also sets your Spirit limit: ★ = 1, ★★ = 2, ★★★ = 3.
4. ★★★ Helm
| Helm | HP | MP |
|---|---|---|
| Lionheart Helm of Bulwark (Heavy) | 1,250 | 700 |
| Ashura Helm of Courage (Light) | 700 | 700 |
| Archangel Robe of Justice (Magic) | 700 | 1,500 |
For comparison, Crown of Madness gives 600 HP.
5. Weapon
| Tab | Result |
|---|---|
| ReAtk | T5 Offensive, bonus Attack Level. For damage dealers |
| ReDef | T5 Defensive, bonus Defense Level. For the front line |
Both versions have the same base damage. Blademaster example: Martial Strider (T4, 1093–1821) becomes Crushing Strider / Wandering Strider (T5, 1166–1943).
There is no way to switch Offensive ↔ Defensive, so think before you choose.
Reforge (rerolls the stats, the item stays the same):
| Tab | For | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Regrade | T4 weapon | 10 WM |
| Atk / Def | T5 Offensive / Defensive | 50 WM |
| Ring | Starchaser Jade: Entropy | 10 WM |
6. Accessories
| Item | Stats |
|---|---|
| Starchaser Jade: Entropy (ring) | Attack 260, Magic 260 (Devour: 240) |
| Solid / Arcane Celestial Resonance Ring | Defense / Magic Defense 415 |
| Solid / Arcane Exotic Chaos Belt | Defense / Magic Defense 428 |
| Revered Etherlord / Dominator / Archpriest Wings | By type |
| Paramount | A Pixie that is guaranteed to grow to full attributes |
The Celestial Resonance Ring goes in the necklace slot, not a ring slot. Top accessories are crafted new, so you do not have to hand in your old ones.
7. Emperor (Tome)
Str/Dex/Mag +45, Critical +3%, Channel -5%, Interval -0.05 seconds, Speed +0.2, HP +400. Bound Bible only gives +45 to one attribute.
8. Crucible materials
There are 9 materials, and they are all obtained the same way:
| Route | Cost per material |
|---|---|
| Arigora Champion Seraveth | 1,000 Arigora Coin (from Arena) |
| Quartermaster Halric | 1,000 Supply Tokens (from Nation War) |
| Aurum Coffer (Item Mall) | 0.008–0.9% chance per coffer |
How to collect Arigora Coin and Supply Tokens is in the PvP Guide.
