Get Ready for the Grind: Why Gold Gear Matters
In Crystal of Atlan, reaching the endgame isn’t just about leveling up—it’s about having the right gear. Gold armor isn’t optional. You’ll need it to survive tougher bosses, boost your nullification stat, and handle elite-level content without constantly getting knocked out.
If you’re running around in white, blue, or even purple gear past level 55, it’s time for an upgrade. This guide walks you through the five fastest and most reliable ways to get your hands on gold gear, especially for PS5 players.
Let’s break it all down in a no-fluff, casual format to help you farm smart—not hard.
#1: Run Abyss Purgatory with Green Energy
The Abyss Purgatory is your main source of gold gear early on. Once you’re level 60+, this daily dungeon becomes essential.
How It Works:
-
Use Green Energy to enter the dungeon.
-
Each run costs 10 Hunting Permits.
-
You have a chance to get gold armor drops every time.
-
Use Abyss Derium to increase your chances of getting a specific piece of gear.
Tips:
-
Press R1 to choose your target gear piece.
-
Use up to 200 Abyss Derium to boost drop rates.
-
Fill the brown orb (pity system) for a guaranteed gold drop.
-
Always run with Green Energy—Orange Energy won’t fill the orb or drop gold.
Bonus Rewards:
-
Get shards for crafting gold gear.
-
Shard donations from fleetmates speed up crafting.
-
Visit Jalm (Abyss Vendor) to buy Derium using 80k gold.
#2: Crafting Gold Gear from Shards and Drops
Even if RNG isn’t on your side, you can still grind your way to gold gear.
What You Need:
-
Enough shards from daily content.
-
Magitum from events like Abyss, Spear Frenzy, and Critical Conquest.
-
Gold and blueprints from quests and vendors.
Where to Craft:
-
Use the Blacksmith once you’ve collected required materials.
-
Blueprint quests usually trigger around level 50–55.
Tip: Don’t forget to dismantle unused gear (especially purple or below) for spare parts.
#3: Void Realm Nest & Valley Runs
Once you hit key nullification thresholds, the Void Realm opens up even more gold farming opportunities.
Void Nest Highlights:
-
Unlock with 3,000+ Nullification.
-
Use Green Energy to boost drop chances.
-
One daily and three weekly attempts.
-
Drops gold armor and Origin Engravings.
Origin Engravings are crucial. You’ll need 12 of them to craft either a Gold Seal or a Gold Talisman—two key components for raising your nullification even further.
Void Valley Highlights:
-
Requires 2,000 Nullification.
-
Use Orange or Green Energy.
-
Green Energy runs offer premium rewards.
-
Earn Ultra Engravings (exclusive to this mode).
Pro Tip: Combine Origin Engravings and Ultra Engravings at the Blacksmith to enhance your Void Armor into higher-end gear.
#4: Use Alternate Characters for Extra Drops
Your alt characters are more than just mules—they’re a source of gear you can pass to your main.
How It Works:
-
Run Purgatory, Nest, and other content with alts.
-
Even if drops don’t fit their class, you can transfer them to your main.
-
Use Transfer Stones via Account Storage.
Important Notes:
-
Level 50 gear = 3 Transfer Stones.
-
Level 55+ gear = Advanced Transfer Stone (10 regular stones).
How to Get Transfer Stones:
-
Merchant Guild Likes: Donate daily (max 200 Likes/day) → trade 200 Likes for 1 stone.
-
Wondrous Shop: Occasional offers using Prismatium.
-
Adventure Team Redeem: 2 stones/month for 5 Memory Crystals.
-
Fleet Store: 500 Sky Points per stone (requires high fleet level).
-
Top-Up Shop: 8,000 points = 1 advanced stone (max 3/month if you spend real money).
Strategy Tip: Prioritize transferring weapons over armor to get the best performance boost on your main.
#5: Farm Gold Gear from Hex Chest Story & Solo Mode
The Hex Chest is a challenging mode, but it also drops gold gear directly from boss fights—especially if you're flying solo.
Hex Chest Rewards Breakdown:
-
Solo Mode: Best for under-geared players. Lower risk, steady rewards.
-
Story Mode: Group content with revival limits. Best avoided unless you meet nullification thresholds.
-
Elite Mode: Skip this unless you’re already geared—it’s endgame content.
Nullification Requirements (Story Mode):
-
1st Boss: 1,500
-
2nd Boss: 2,500
-
3rd Boss: 3,500
-
Final Boss: 4,500
Tip: If you're under 4,500 nullification, avoid matchmaking for Hex Chest Story. You’ll risk wasting both your time and your group’s limited revives.
Guaranteed Strategy:
-
Farm Solo Mode consistently.
-
Use drops to supplement or craft full gold sets.
-
Upgrade stats until you’re confident enough to enter Story Mode with a team or fleet.
Final Tips: Smart Grinding Strategy
To farm efficiently without burning out:
-
Focus daily on Abyss Purgatory with Green Energy.
-
Use alt characters to score gear and transfer wisely.
-
Never enhance low-tier gear (white, blue, purple).
-
Use fleetmates for shard donations and extra help.
-
Only enter group content when you’re fully prepped.
By spreading your time across these five methods and making smart use of energy, transfer stones, and crafting systems, you can build your gold set faster than you think.
Final Thoughts: Get Your Gold Gear Fast Without Burning Out
Getting gold gear in Crystal of Atlan on PS5 is all about pacing and efficiency. With the right balance of daily purgatory runs, void realm content, shard crafting, and gear sharing across characters, you'll steadily reach the nullification levels needed for tougher challenges like Hex Chest and elite-level bosses.
Avoid common traps—like enhancing low-tier gear or entering content you're not ready for—and you'll save time and resources. Make use of fleetmates, alternate characters, and in-game systems like Derium and Engravings to round out your gear quickly and painlessly.
