In the Season Server: Loki VI, upgrading your equipment is essential to increase your Score Power and gain an edge in the event. In this news article, you'll learn how to refine, evolve gear stages, and insert options into your items, further strengthening your character and climbing the ranks.
Attention:
This news is subject to change until the event launch, so stay tuned!
From Forge to Glory: The 3 Stages of Equipment Evolution
Equipment on the Season Server: Loki VI goes through three evolution stages:
1st Evolution – Basic Gear
- When creating a character, you receive the 1st Evolution set, without options and with +0 refinement.
- Each piece can be refined up to +11.
- When a piece reaches +11 and your mantle is also refined to +11, you can evolve the equipment to 2nd Evolution, and your mantle will automatically become the Evolution 2 Mantle.
- When evolving equipment, options are retained, but refinement is lost.
2nd Evolution – Intermediate Gear
- Refine equipment up to +11.
- When a piece reaches +11 and your mantle is also refined to +11, you can evolve the equipment to 3rd Evolution, and your mantle will automatically become the Evolution 3 Mantle.
- When evolving equipment, options are retained, but refinement is lost.
3rd Evolution – Final Gear
- At the final stage, all pieces and the Evolution 3 Mantle can be refined up to +15, reaching peak power on the Season Server.
Evolution Unlock Schedule
To ensure balanced progression throughout the Season Server, each evolution stage will be unlocked on specific dates:
- 2nd Evolution – Available from 06/01/2025
- 3rd Evolution – Available from 06/04/2025
This way, players can enhance their gear gradually, exploring each stage before moving on to the next level of power.
Initial Equipment
You start equipped with all pieces of the 1st Evolution armor for your class:
- Refinement: +0
- Options: none
Weapons from the 1st Evolution are not given at character creation, as you need to define your class and skill lineage. After choosing, simply acquire the corresponding weapon for free from NPC Thrain in the city of Armia, coordinates X:2196 and Y:2108.
In addition to weapons, the initial mantle is also not given. To obtain it, complete the Initial Quests; only then will it be added to your character.
What is Equipment?
Your equipment forms the base of your power. Each character has the following equipment slots:
- Helmet
- Chest
- Pants
- Gloves
- Boots
- Mantle
- One-handed Weapon or Shield or Two-handed Weapon
Important:
Helmet, Chest, Pants, Gloves, Boots, and Mantle cannot be unequipped.
What is Equipment?
Each piece allows refinement, evolution, and insertion of options.
The refinement level and Tier of inserted options determine how many points the equipment adds to your Score Power.
Important:
Two-handed weapons are equivalent to using a one-handed weapon + shield or dual-wielding one-handed weapons, ensuring flexibility in your combat style.
How to Refine Your Equipment?
Refinement Limits by Evolution:
1st Evolution: refinement from +0 to +11
2nd Evolution: refinement from +0 to +11

The higher the refinement and the equipment's evolution stage, the harder it is to succeed in refinement.
How to Enhance Options?
Step-by-step to Insert Options
1. Go to the NPC Enchanter in the city of Armia, coordinates X: 2082 and Y: 2080.
2. Access the menu for the piece you want to insert an option into.

Important:
The mantle does not use the Tier system for options, so it is not possible to upgrade options Tiers on it.
Options & Tiers
Options are special bonuses you can insert into your equipment to enhance attributes such as Damage, Defense, Magic Attack, and others. Each option has Tier levels that represent its potency: the higher the Tier, the more power it adds to your character.

How to Evolve Your Equipment?
Step by Step
1. Go to the BlackSmith NPC located in Armia city, coordinates X: 2080 and Y: 2102.
2. Access the menu for the piece you wish to evolve.
- To evolve any equipment, your mantle must be refined to the maximum level.
3. Choose how many evolution attempts you want to make:
Important:
You do not need to evolve the mantle, as it evolves automatically when you evolve a piece of equipment.
The higher the evolution level of the equipment, the harder the next evolution becomes.
How Equipment Enhancement Impacts Score Power
Each time you refine, upgrade the Tier of your optionals, or evolve a piece of equipment, your Score Power increases directly.
To calculate the Score Power of each piece, three factors are considered: its refinement level, the optional Tier, and the evolution stage of the equipment.
The calculation is simple::
- For each piece:
- (Base power of the equipment according to its evolution + Option Tier) × Refinement
Want to understand in detail how this value integrates into your total power? Click here (coming soon) to access the full article on Score Power.
Important:
Since the mantle does not have Option Tiers, its Score Power is calculated only by multiplying the base power of the evolution by the refinement level.
