2nd Chronicle items are an upgrade from the 1st Chronicle set. However, unlike the 1st Chronicle set, the 2nd Chronicle gear is obtained through mostly random drops from the Otherverse dungeons.

Pieces

2nd Chronicle gear comes in three distinct forms:

  • Regular: Normal gear with specific options.
  • Powerful: Enhanced normal gear; generally has slightly better options and stats.
  • Set: Powerful gear with Set effects. However, these pieces make up part of a specific set bonus, which in turn, gives much better bonuses and options.

Regular pieces can drop on Normal, Expert's, or Master's Road, whereas Set and Powerful pieces can only be obtained on King's Road.

How to Get

You can get 2nd Chronicle gear in quite a few ways.

  • Random drop from Otherverse dungeons.
  • Create from Recipe; These also randomly drop from Otherverse dungeons.
  • Buy from Dorothy: You can only buy certain pieces however.
  • Quest: Complete the 1st Chronicle quest chain; you can then unlock quests to get 2nd Chronicle Shoes and Necklace. This also unlocks a daily quest to get Delirium Stones, which are used in crafting 2nd Chronicle recipes.


Gear Drops

For 2nd Chronicle gear, certain pieces will only drop on a certain road.

  • Normal: Ring, Belt, Pants, and associated Recipes
  • Experts: Bracelet, Head/Shoulder, Top, and associated Recipes
  • Masters: Weapon, Shoes, Necklace, and associated Recipes
  • King's: Powerful gear, Set gear, and associated Recipes.


Options

Each Chronicle gear has specific options regarding a Skill. These options are noted by a effect. The skill and option selected are fairly random.

Option Effect Description
Force Increases Skill damage by a % value.
Zooming Increases Skill size by a % value.
Retention Increases Skill duration by a % value.
Fierce Decreases Skill's MP consumption and Cooldown by a % value.
Ambush Increases number of hits of a Skill (where applies).
Also lowers the Skill damage by a % value.
Swift Increases Skill speed.
Intense Increases buff effect of a Skill.
Extensive Increases ammo size.
Specialty Strengthens Skill attributes
Sanguination Increases probability of Bleeding on hit.
Blood-Sucking Increases HP Absorption rate of Frenzy. (Berserker only)
Shrewd Decreases Skill Charge and Summoning Time.
Reinforcement Higher Exorcism Parameter than normal.

About Sets

This section will briefly describe the Sets available, however, it will not list all Sets for every subclass. That is for another section.

Set-specific gear can only be obtained on King's Road. These sets are geared towards each individual subclass. However, each subclass has about 3~4 different sets generally set up for different skill builds, thus completing a set will require lots of time and effort spending grinding these dungeons. However, the payoff is usually worth it, as the Set bonuses for the these sets offer very powerful bonuses and options not seen elsewhere in the game.
