COMPLETE Blue Protocol Star Resonance GEAR Progression Guide

Summary

This video offers an in-depth guide on gear refinement in a game, focusing on the importance of gems, which can be slotted into every piece of gear to enhance stats. Players can craft or buy various types of gems with different stat combinations, such as emerald for mastery and strength. The video explains three gem tiers (basic, intermediate, advanced), the costs of crafting higher-level gems, and the gamble aspect of crafting, where players can spend Luno to try for higher-tier gems. The guide also highlights the non-returnable nature of gems when gear is dismantled and provides insights on how to progress through the game using this system.

Takeaways

• 😀 Dungeon farming is the primary method for acquiring low-level gear, with higher-level gear obtained from harder dungeons and raids.
• 😀 Gear progression is largely based on RNG (random number generation), making it a mix of farming, upgrading, and luck.
• 😀 Refining gear enhances its stats and is essential for higher-end gameplay. Blessing materials improve the chance of successful refinements.
• 😀 Reforging stones are used to modify specific gear attributes, such as crit damage and attack speed. Players can farm these stones or purchase them.
• 😀 Gear can be refined to increase stat boosts, with a focus on early-game overall balance and late-game focus on offensive stats.
• 😀 Gems provide additional stat boosts, and each gear piece can slot one. Different gems offer various combinations of stats (e.g., agility + mastery).
• 😀 There are three gem tiers (basic, intermediate, advanced), with level 7 gems being the rarest and most powerful, but costly to obtain.
• 😀 Players can gamble on higher-tier gems by investing more Luno, with a significantly higher chance of getting a higher-level gem in the advanced slot.
• 😀 The gamble for advanced gems (level 7) can be expensive, requiring up to 150,000 Luno, and should be avoided unless a player is at the late-game stage.
• 😀 Gems do not return to the player when gear is dismantled, so they are consumable and must be continuously farmed or purchased.
• 😀 The game features class-specific gear, such as ray gear, which can be swapped between classes, automatically adjusting stats according to the equipped class.

Q & A

What is the primary focus of gear progression in the game?

The primary focus is on improving and refining gear through upgrading, reforging, and slotting gems to enhance character stats. Gear can be upgraded through various methods, including using gems, which provide additional stats such as agility, strength, haste, and intelligence.

How does the reforging system work in gear progression?

Reforging is a process where gear is dismantled and then upgraded with a random stat. The goal is to improve the gear's stats to match the player's needs. However, reforging comes with risks as it can be costly and might result in suboptimal upgrades.

What is the significance of the gem system in the game?

Gems are key to enhancing gear in the game. Each gem provides two stats, such as mastery, agility, strength, or intelligence, depending on the type. Gems can be slotted into each piece of gear to improve its overall performance.

What are the different tiers of gems available in the game?

There are three tiers of gems in the game: basic, tier 3, and tier 5. Each tier has different strengths, with higher-tier gems offering better stats. Gems can be crafted or bought through life skills or gem crafting.

What is the gamble feature in the gem system?

The gamble feature allows players to increase the chances of acquiring higher-level gems by spending more in-game currency, Luno. There are three options: a normal option (5,000 Luno), an intermediate option (higher cost with a 20% chance of a level 6 gem), and an advanced option (costs 150,000 Luno for a small chance to get a level 7 gem).

Why is farming and buying bound Luno important for gem upgrades?

Bound Luno is essential for upgrading gems, especially when trying to obtain high-level gems. The gamble feature for level 7 gems can be extremely expensive, making it necessary to farm or buy large amounts of Luno to afford these high-level rolls.

What happens to gems when you dismantle gear?

Unlike reforging, when you dismantle gear that has a gem slotted in it, the gem is not returned. This makes gems a consumable resource, which players need to continuously craft or buy to keep upgrading their gear.

When should players focus on rolling for level 7 gems?

Level 7 gems are high-end and costly, making them suitable for late-game players or those who are willing to spend money. Most players should focus on leveling up their gems until they reach level 6 and avoid gambling for level 7 unless they are in a position to invest heavily in the game.

How should players manage their gem crafting to maximize efficiency?

Players should focus on choosing the right gems that align with their class and desired stats. It's important to craft or buy gems with the right combination of stats and prioritize gem upgrades that will significantly improve their gear's performance.

What other systems besides gear progression impact character development in the game?

Besides gear progression, the game involves other systems such as the imagery module, skill trees, and talents, which contribute to character development. These systems were not covered in-depth in the video but are also key to maximizing a character’s potential.
