If you’ve made it to levels 55–60 in Crystal of Atlan, welcome to the grind-heavy stage of your journey. This is when gearing up starts to matter big time. Whether you're crafting epic weapons, farming for purgatory drops, or chasing high nullification stats to clear Hex Chest, having a clear equipment plan is key.
In this guide, we’ll walk through everything you need to know about getting the right gear at this stage—what to farm, what to craft, and what to upgrade. By the end, you'll know exactly how to spend your resources, avoid common mistakes, and make smart gear choices that scale into late game.
Let’s get into it.
Where to Spend Your Energy Efficiently
At levels 55–60, one of the most common questions players ask is: Where should I use my energy?
The priority should be Void Realm, where you can farm Ultra Engraving materials. These are key to your long-term progression. Don’t waste your main character's energy on Ravine—use alternate characters (alts) for that. Ravine items are sharable and even tradable, so it's smarter to let your alts handle this grind.
You’ll want to secure Ultra Engraving materials daily, since they have a cap of 6 per day. Once you hit level 60 and have enough Nullification, unlock and run the advanced weekly content that allows three reward claims per week. After that, all excess energy should be dumped into Abyssal Purgatory for gear farming.
Purgatory Dungeon: Epic Drops and Guaranteed Rewards
Abyssal Purgatory is your main farming dungeon now. It offers a 3% chance to drop epic-grade equipment, including items from other classes. Although the UI only shows your class drops, everything is technically in the drop table.
Here’s the kicker: there’s a pity system. After 15 runs, you're guaranteed a legendary drop. If you're aiming for specific pieces, you can boost your odds using the Abyss Derium system. This currency is tradable, shareable, and can be purchased at 80k gold each, with a daily cap of 100. Whales can buy this out daily to maximize their gear chances. Early targets should be armor pieces—they have higher drop probabilities (15%) compared to weapons (11%).
Crafting Weapons: What to Do If RNG Isn't On Your Side
If you're unlucky with drops and still weaponless, crafting becomes your fallback. While the best weapons come from RNG-based drops, you can still build decent alternatives by crafting base weapons and upgrading them. These crafted versions sit slightly below top-tier gear in CP—around 1,670 to 1,700 CP—but are reliable if you're hitting a dry spell.
Just note: crafting uses Magitum, which is also needed later for more advanced gear. Avoid dismantling your Magitum unless necessary. Use Elite Adventure for materials, and keep in mind that crafting one item can cost up to 3 million gold. Choose your targets carefully, especially since even a small CP or stat gap matters at this stage.
Armor and Accessories: Focus on Void Gear First
When it comes to armor and accessories, prioritize Void equipment and upgrade it to epic grade. This phase of gearing heavily revolves around nullification stats, especially due to the Hex Chest mode. To clear Hex Chest solo, you’ll need 4,500 nullification—even the story mode requires the same. On Elite, it jumps to 5,000.
The best gear to equip is whatever gives you the highest nullification, even if it means ditching higher CP items. RNG plays a big role here—crafting gear doesn’t guarantee the slot you need, and you may waste materials if purgatory drops a better item in that slot. To minimize risk, run purgatory first before you start crafting anything.
Nullification is the Meta—Equip What Gives the Most
At this stage, nullification is more important than almost any other stat. Always equip the gear piece with the highest nullification value, regardless of CP or rarity. This applies especially to armor slots—helmet, gloves, chest, pants, and boots. Purgatory drops are completely random, so you could get any slot at any time. That’s why it’s crucial to avoid investing heavily in a slot before farming your daily purgatory runs.
Once you know what didn’t drop, you can decide what to upgrade or craft. The worst outcome is crafting a legendary item only to have an epic drop in the same slot that has better nullification. So, time your upgrades after your dungeon clears to reduce wasted effort and gold.
Crafting Priorities: When to Build and When to Wait
If you're out of energy and didn’t get the gear piece you wanted, that’s when you should consider crafting. Your go-to option should still be Void equipment for the sake of nullification stats. For upgrades like Hyper Engraving, farm materials with your alts—don’t waste your main character’s energy on Void Realm dungeons. This will help you upgrade to gear with 560 nullification without impacting your main’s farming cycle.
Also, remember that epic shards can be shared across all characters on your account. You can farm these in Purgatory, Void Realm, or Void Nest. The daily shard limit is 300, and though they’re not visible in inventory, the total count shows up on relevant screens.
Enhancement Strategy: When to Upgrade and When to Hold Back
Enhancing your equipment can be tempting, but at this level, it’s risky to overinvest. Stop at +10 or +12, especially on Void gear. Beyond that, the costs skyrocket, and you risk wasting materials on gear that might soon be replaced by higher nullification pieces or better RNG drops.
If you do find a new gear piece and want to transfer enhancements, use Flawless Inheritance—an item that lets you carry over the exact enhancement level without loss. It only works between epic items, costs 500 gems, and unlocks at level 60. It's worth saving for to avoid frustration and resource loss.
Late-Game Optimization: Be Strategic, Not Emotional
Progressing in Crystal of Atlan from level 55 to 60 is all about making smart, calculated decisions. Always prioritize nullification over raw stats. Let your Purgatory runs decide your crafting path. Use alts to maximize resource gain like shards and engraving materials. Be patient with enhancements, and avoid over-investing in gear that’s likely to be replaced.
This phase of the game rewards planning over luck. If you follow the right path, your gear will scale smoothly into endgame content without bleeding resources.
Conclusion: Mastering Gearing at Level 55–60
Reaching level 55–60 in Crystal of Atlan marks the beginning of serious gear planning. Focus your efforts on farming Abyssal Purgatory, prioritizing equipment with high nullification stats, and crafting only after exhausting your energy. Use alts strategically for shard and engraving material farming, and don't overcommit to enhancements—especially on gear that may be replaced.
Stick to these priorities and your gear progression will be smooth, efficient, and ready for late-game challenges like Hex Chest.
FAQs
Q1: What gear should I prioritize at level 55–60?
A: Focus on Void equipment with high nullification stats, especially armor. These are essential for progressing into Hex Chest content.
Q2: How can I get Ultra or Hyper Engraving materials?
A: Use alts to farm Void Realm dungeons and save your main’s energy for Purgatory runs.
