There are many reasons to love a game, but having great equipment is guaranteed to set a game apart from the rest. If you’ve ever played an RPG or multiplayer game, you’ll know that there’s nothing more satisfying than crushing your arch nemesis in battle and looking badass through it all. Yet this also brings about one of the toughest challenges that game developers of all genres must overcome - creating an equipment system that’s engaging, rewarding and easy to understand; and that’s why you’ll love Dawn of Darkness (DOD http://dod.igg.com/), because its equipment features offer so much unrivaled depth for the hardcore gamer and unmatched accessibility for the newbie!

To start, DOD’s super simple Class and equipment typing are a breeze to pick up for any player. While there are several hero classes to select from at various stages of game play, all of them fall into one of two types: Physical or Magic. Although weapons are class-specific, all other equipment can be shared between classes of the same type, which cuts down on the crushing amount of information and lingo that tend to overwhelm players in most other titles of the same kind.

Once your heroes are properly equipped, DOD’s Equipment Enhancement is also incredibly easy to use. With just a few clicks, you can keep your gear in tip top shape to charge through increasingly difficult dungeons and stay afloat in the PvP Arena. For serious enhancers, the enhancement system also offers various ways to increase enhancement success rates and remove cooldown times for maximum efficiency.

But don’t be fooled - under the unparalleled accessibility lays a ton of deeper game play and additional features for advanced players to explore. Mix and match items for unique builds or gather an entire equipment set for powerful set bonuses, collect, fuse and equip attribute boosting Souls, defeat Elite mobs and BOSSes to collect rare Blueprints, unlock new maps to find rare crafting materials, convert old equipment to serve new heroes, and more! With so many options available, there’s never a dull moment!

This comprehensive equipment system is just one of many components that make Dawn of Darkness the unique and incredible game it is. You don’t want to miss out on this amazing adventure! Embark on the journey of a lifetime, forge epic equipment, battle across strange lands, and save the world!
