How to Reforge Tools and Armor for Custom Stats

The Echelon Linggango Variant Mod introduces a reforging system that lets you customize gear stats to match your combat play style.

Understanding Bonuses and Penalties

Every standard reforge grants a beneficial stat alongside an accompanying penalty. For example, a weapon upgrade might boost attack damage, critical damage, or armor penetration, but balance it by lowering your armor or reducing critical damage. Higher upgrade tiers make both the positive bonus and the negative penalty significantly stronger. There are over 100 unique modifiers available, each assigned moving colored names such as *Fury Forged*, *Heart Piercer*, or *Anvil Breaker*.

Applying a Reforge to Your Gear

1. Open your reforge screen interface.

2. Place the tool, weapon (such as a sword or axe), or armor piece you wish to alter into the designated gear slot.

3. Add an upgrade material corresponding to your desired tier into the material slot.

4. Trigger the reforge button to apply the modifier.

Inspect the newly applied modifier name and stat profile in the reforge menu. If the penalty is too harsh or conflicts with your build, you can reforge again with fresh materials until you roll a combination suited to your needs.
