I. System Positioning
This time, an exclusive cultivation system for Energon crystals is newly added. It is equivalent to the rune/gem system in traditional games. It is bound to the energy core slots of equipment and serves as the core cultivation module for attribute amplification, and set special effects. The Energon crystal slots have attribute restrictions and can only be equipped with corresponding attribute crystals. There are three quality gradients: general/sets/unique, which differentially provide three types of bonuses: basic values, set linkages, and high - value exclusive powerful affixes.
II. Brief Introduction
1. Attribute System
Wind (feng), Fire (huo), Electricity (dian), Ice (bing), Earth (di)
The energy core slots of equipment are bound to a single attribute. The wind slot can only be equipped with wind crystals, and the fire slot can only be equipped with fire crystals. Cross - attribute assembly is not possible.
2. Crystal Quality Classification (Crystal Types)
Three types of quality cover all crystals:
General (general / energonNormal)
These are basic universal crystals. They only provide basic fixed value bonuses, have no special exclusive affixes, and no set linkage effects. They have the lowest acquisition threshold and serve as early - stage transitional cultivation materials.
Sets (sets / energonSet)
These are set - exclusive crystals, replicating a mechanism similar to the set system in Diablo 3. Activate a set buff by collecting a specified number of set crystals of the same series. The single - piece income is average, but multiple - piece combinations trigger high - value comprehensive bonuses, which is suitable for building set - based gameplay styles.
Unique (unique / energonUnique)
These are rare and top - grade crystals. Their core feature is a single powerful exclusive special - effect affix, equivalent to the passive effect of a powerful skill. The single - piece income is extremely strong. There is no need to collect a set, and it can greatly change the output/survival gameplay. It has the highest upper limit for a single piece.
III. Cultivation Level Mechanism: Energon Level (energonLevel)
All crystals uniformly have an Energon level cultivation line. As the level increases, all bonus values are magnified synchronously. It is the core dimension of the basic cultivation of crystals. The higher the level, the stronger the various amplification and bonus effects.
The higher the number of levels you pass, the higher the Energon level of the obtained Energon crystals.
