Introduction[]
With the post crossover event efforts to clean up the Golden Giftboxes, a lot of items are going rare, and this is a compilation of the ones you should care about.
The items listed in this page will leave on the 9th of April 2020!
As with the Crossover Event, the items will be tiered based on their relative strength and necessity.
Tier 1 items are the strongest, offering otherwise unavailable mechanics or being absolute best in class.
Tier 2 items offer marginal advantage over existing options, or are situational.
Tier Andlu (2.5) Items that are trash, but the good kind of trash.
Tier 3 items can be picked up, but are more often than not, weaker than available options.
Tier 4 items are bad, and should only be considered for their art if anything.
| Note |
|---|
| The tier list assumes the item fits your current build. Paladin Chilly pet for instance will do little good for a FO Pure Mage. |
Tier 1[]
Prime Chaos Orb (UR) - The cream of the crop from the release, the item works better the longer the battles are, but is also usable for shorter battles as well.
Mason Form (UR) - With the emerging Imbue meta, any powerful attack using this armor will most likely cause the opponent to be choked for a massive damage reduction, making this a powerful addition to your arsenal.
Gilded Deatharrow Cat (UR) - Since the Boss Boost update, statuses that reduce the opponent's damage are harder to inflict on bosses, making pets such as this more valuable against them. It's a Light pet that either deals damage, or inflicts elevuln.
Infinita Staff (Rare) - A good resource regeneration weapon for many builds, although inadvisable to buy without understanding when you're planning on using it.
Steampunk Love Bow (Rare) - The only existing Harm damage Bow in the game.
Quester's Heavy Dragon Gunner Armor (Rare) - The best Fire armor for FD builds.
Regal Dragon Blade (Rare) - Consistent with the Cross Over Tier List this item is a tier 1 item.
Tier 2[]
Defender General of Cerberus (UR) - An OK Fully-Defensive armor for FD Ranger builds.
Maw of Chaos (UR) - While theoretically provides a further boost to your damage you'll be hard pressed to fit this in your inventory over other items.
Call / Summon ShadowScythe Floater (UR) - A guest that deals 3 times as much damage in the first round, at the cost of not acting the two next ones. This can't be circumvented other than with relogging, but it allows you to switch to an additional Fire guest in your inventory making you essentially deal 2 free attacks.
Crusader's Shining Repeater (Rare) - A decent Light Bow.
Fresh Asteraceae (Rare) - Consistent with the Cross Over Tier List this item is a tier 2 item.
Human Fisher Armor (Rare) - While weaker than W.H.E.E.L, Hydro Guardian Dragon Form (Rare) and Hydromancer Bloodmage it's still stronger (albeit marginally) than Subrace Armor for Mages (comparable for Warriors and Hybrids) and offers a low SP cost.
Riftwalker (Rare) - An Ice pet that in one of its modes provides Blocking against Fire attacks, proving useful for FD and FO builds alike.
Summon / Call Dreadfiend of Nulgath (Rare) - A Darkness guest that in one of its modes provides Backlash, proving useful for FD and FO builds alike, with the other mode providing pure damage.
Tier Andlu (2.5)[]
Ultimate Dragon Scythe (UR) - Offering the ultimate compression between Melee/Ranged/Magic, and all the 8 elements, at the cost of being weaker than virtually anything.
Tier 3[]
Fiend of Vergill Armor (UR) - Increasing the potency of Poisons and Bleeds, this item is too slow for the current meta, although it could be fun for some.
Chaos Slayer Cleric Armors (UR) - They're not particularly good, but they're not particularly bad either, and they look good so make what you will with that. They come with a skill around the same power level as Tyrannochicken and an option to regenerate MP based on the damage you deal at the cost of some HP.
Azrael's Reaper Pet (UR) - At the current meta a pet reducing accuracy is not good at all.
Paladin Chilly Pet (UR) - Unless you really need a Light paralysis pet, other, better pets are available.
Call / Summon Infernal Legion Minion (UR) - Marginally weaker than the seasonal Pyre Rat other than select few situations.
Eternity Key (Rare) - While this item offers an effect for cool numbers, it is generally bad, but has good art.
Caden's Wrath (Rare) - Completely pointless when you have Double Poelala. But before getting any of the boosters it is the strongest Ice Weapon for 0 CHA builds.
General of Cerberus Shield (Rare) - If your build has a lot of Burn, and for some reason you lack SP, this shield is an OK water option, but otherwise not really recommended.
Epoch Slice (Rare) - While big numbers are fun, this item is not particularly useful for most situations. This spell provides Elemental Vulnerability and can be used the same way as (but not in conjunction with) Dragonguard in the Purple Rain Loop as described in the Commonly Used Strategies page.
Tier 4[]
Frost Destroyer (UR) - Stronger weapons are cheaper, making it a bad buy.
Titan's Triumph (UR) - Stronger weapons are cheaper, making it a bad buy.
Gilded Dread Scythe (UR) - Fear is too infrequent.
General of Cerberus Axe (UR) - Stronger weapons are cheaper, making it a bad buy.
Randor Pet (UR) - Weaker than F2P options.
Silas Pet (UR)- Stronger pets are cheaper, making it a bad buy.
Call Blood Hawk P (UR) - Slow to start and even then pretty weak.
Prismatic Iridescence (Rare) - Does nothing but look good.
Infernal Android (Rare) - Weaker than F2P options.
Galactic Void Katana (Rare) - Not remarkable for anyone not starving for Choke.
Ultra Elemental Axe (Rare) - While it looks cool, it is outclassed by other F2P items.
Bonesmasher Pet (Rare) - Easily outclassed by other available pets.
Gilded Krieger Claw (Rare) - While the sleep effect might sound cool, it's unreliable and not useful in most cases.
