Plates are special items that can be added to your armour and improve some of the equipments characteristics. You can obtain plates by taking part in the Faeo Under the Control of Darkness event and taking part in game events such as "Battle pass". Information will be added as more ways to obtain plates or chests become available.
Chests and the plates in them have a lifespan.
Plates are divided by fighting style, but can be applied to any style without losing the set bonus. For example "bonecrusher" plates can be applied to heavyweights armour.
The possible characteristics that can be enhanced by using a plate depend on the style of the plate. However, which characteristics are improved and how much is random and does not depend on the quality of the armour or its level.
Attaching a plate to an item that already has another plate attached permanently replaces it.
Currently there are blue and purple Plates. The maximum possible upgrade with the former is lower than with the purple ones. For example, if a purple plate in a helmet can increase intuition to 12 a blue plate can only increase it to 9.
The following plates are currently available:
Bonecrusher
