Crystal of Atlan’s Enhancement Guide (Save Time & Gold!)

Hey there, brave adventurers of Atlan!

Ready to supercharge your gear and crush those tough challenges without burning through all your hard-earned gold or wasting hours grinding?

Then you’re in the right place—this guide is all about breaking down Crystal of Atlan’s gear enhancement system, from the nitty-gritty core mechanics to pro-level strategies and handy auxiliary features. Whether you’re a fresh-faced rookie or a seasoned warrior, we’re here to help you boost your combat power smarter, not harder. Let’s dive in!

Basic Enhancement Mechanics

Stages of Enhancement

+0 to +11	No downgrades on failure. Success relies on brute force, consuming only gold and spare parts
+12 and above	Reduced success rate (base 20%). Failure causes downgrades (e.g., +13 → +12). Catalysts are critical to mitigate losses
+15 and above	Renamed "Amplification." Requires accumulating 3–6 "amplification stars" to level up. No downgrades, but costs are extremely high (≈230,000 gold per attempt)

 

Key Materials: Catalysts

Normal Catalyst	+4% success rate. 2 can be crafted into 1 Stable Catalyst (via the crafting table behind the blacksmith)
Stable Catalyst	Prevents downgrades for gear at +12 or lower, ideal for pushing to +13
Potent Catalyst	+7% success rate (20% → 27%). Used for +13 to +15 attempts; failure still causes downgrades
Amplification Catalyst	Guarantees 100% success for the 3rd amplification star (for +15+ gear). Crafted from 10 Potent Catalysts

 

Enhancement Strategies & Priorities

Gear Priority

• Weapon > Armor > Other gear: Weapons provide the most significant damage boost. Prioritize pushing weapons to +15 first.
• Use free items: "+12 Enhancement Tickets" instantly max gear to +12, saving resources.

Stage-by-Stage Guide

+0 to +11	No catalysts needed. Brute force through failures (no downgrades).
+12 to +15	+12: Use Stable Catalysts to avoid downgrades (20% success rate, repeated attempts).
	+13 to +15: Switch to Potent Catalysts for higher success. If failed (e.g., +14 → +13), use Stable Catalysts to recover.
+15 and above (Amplification)	Accumulate 3–6 stars (e.g., +15→+16 needs 3 stars). Each star has 20–27% success; failures reset stars but don’t downgrade.
	Pity System: 6 consecutive failures guarantee success on the 7th attempt for a star.

Auxiliary System: Calibration

Purpose	Adjust random gear stats to maximize combat power (works for all gear).
Materials	Calibration Compass: Randomly refreshes all stats (may lower values), good for early boosts.
	Advanced Calibration Compass: Maxes out one random stat without lowering others, ideal for 70%+ calibrated gear.
Goal	Calibrate gear to 100% by prioritizing core stats (e.g., weapon attack, agility).

 

Key Tips

• Resource Management: Prioritize Stable Catalysts (saves gold) via guild merchants. Avoid overspending on +15+ gear as F2P.
• Gold Costs: High-tier amplification (e.g., +15→+16) costs ~230k per attempt; plan accordingly.

 

Conclusion

In conclusion, mastering the enhancement system in Crystal of Atlan is key to boosting your combat power efficiently—from strategic use of catalysts to prioritizing weapon upgrades and leveraging the calibration system. However, the journey to +15 and beyond can be resource-intensive, especially when it comes to gold and rare materials like stable or potent catalysts.
