Armories

Armories are Workshops that focus mostly on crafting and upgrading Armor Cosmetic Collectibles as well as refining Cosmetic Shards into Refined Cosmetic Shards.
Armory Actions Overview.

Armory Max Issuance, Rarity & Types

Max Issuances

The issuance amounts in the table above are immutable and will never change.

Rarity

Armories have ten rarity tiers: Common through Unique. An Armory can only Craft or Upgrade Cosmetic Collectibles equal to its rarity tier but with Bonus Rolls, they can craft up to two rarity tiers higher.

Types

There are ten types of Armories, each type has a Special Bonus and a Color.

Note: Armors assigned to specialization are subject to change and are not finalized.
New Armors
Every time we introduce new armor types to the game, we'll assign a specialization bonus to one of the existing Armory Types to incorporate them.

Specialization

Each Specialization increases the Crafting Speed of a particular Armor piece. The Specialization's extra speed depends on the rarity, and generally, single specializations would have faster speed compared to multiple specializations with the exception of the Rainbow colors.

Collectives

Each Collective will have a specific group bonus plus it would be used to unlock the Workshop Collective Set Bonus which looks into the Workshops that are set up within one SPACE.
Note that the 🌈Prismatic Radiance collective would allow players to select between the three basic collectives and only the selected color would be active.
Collective

🔴Light Hammer: Speed
Faster Crafting & Refining.
🔵Steady Anvil: Efficiency
less $BIGTIME needed when Crafting & Refining.
🟢Four-leaf Clover: Luck

🌈Prismatic Radiance: Everything!
All of the above
Note: Group Type Bonuses are subject to change for balancing reasons.

Refining, Crafting, and Upgrading

Refining

Armories can refine Cosmetic Shards into Refined Cosmetic Shards which are then used for crafting.
Only Wild or Armory Cosmetic Shards can be refined using an Armory, and the output would be Refined Armory Cosmetic Shards, which is usable for crafting using an Armory.

Leveling Up an Armory

An Armory can Level Up to gain better Crafting Stats.

Armory EXP

To level up an Armory, a player needs to earn the required amount of Armory EXP, which is earned through actions such as Refining, Crafting, and Upgrading.

Spend Time Crystals to Level Up

Once the Armory has the required amount of EXP, players can spend Time Crystals to level it up, which happens instantly.

Crafting Benefits for Leveling Up

    Increases the Crafting and Upgrading efficiency depending on the type of Armory
  2. 2.
    Unlocks additional Bonus Roll slots
  3. 3.
    Unlocks special Bonus Roll benefits

Bonus Rolls

Bonus Rolls are optional actions the player can take to increase the output of their Crafting Action.
Bonus Roll Example. (Values are for illustration purpose only)
Steps When Bonus Rolling:
  • Whenever a player initiates a Crafting Action in the Forge, they will have the option to Bonus Roll.
  • Players spend Workshop Mod Chips to Bonus Roll.
  • Then they can decide on which of the Crafting Bonuses they want to "Lock in" before they roll again. The goal, of course, is to fill all the slots with the perfect set of Crafting Bonuses.
  • Each Locked slot, will increase the cost of the subsequent roll.
Before and After Bonus roll Example.
The Number of Slots depends on the Armory Level and the chances for better Crafting Bonuses depend on the Armory Rarity.

Note: Values in the table above are subject to change for balancing reasons.
Here are some examples of the Crafting Bonuses:
  • Extra output: Increase the number of output by 1. (Get 2 Cosmetic Collectibles instead of 1)
  • Skip Rarity Tier: Increase the rarity of the Cosmetic Collectible output by 1 tier. (ex: common > uncommon)
  • 25% faster: Decrease the duration of the crafting action by 25%.
  • Quad Right: Boosts the effect of the bonus slot to the right by 4 times.
And many more...
Bonus Type Pool Not all bonuses are available for all the crafting recipes, for example, skipping a rarity bonus would not be in the pool of possible bonuses when crafting a transcendent rarity collectible.
The pool of possible bonuses is dependent on the recipe being crafted as well as the rarity of the Utility Collectible (Forge, Armory, Time Warden)
