The Combination Codex allows players to access the full potential of their equipped Talismans. The system rewards players for equipping specific Talisman colour combinations. At the moment, there are 6 different Talisman colours: red, blue, purple, yellow, white and black. For each colour, there are 4 different tiers: tier I, tier II, tier III and tier IV. There also 4 different grades of Talisman combinations found in the Combination Codex: normal, high-grade, rare and heroic. When a player unlocks a Talisman combination and wears the correct Talisman colours they will receive a % increase for some stats on their Talismans equipped.
How to Unlock and Level Up the Combination Codex
Players must register a specific number of unique Talismans or Orbs required to unlock a combination. Once unlocked, players can continue to register the same Talismans or Orbs to level up the combination. Leveling up a combination greatly increases the % boost given for some stats on the equipped Talismans. For example, a level (1/2/3/4/5) rare combination will provide a (5.8%/11.6%/17.4%/23.2%/29%) boost to 3 stats. Refer to Table 1: Items Required to Unlock Combination Codex for more information.
