How to Craft and Use Pigments and Focuses

Pigments

Pigments are colored items that determine the color of your hex patterns. There are many variants, including Black Pigment, Blue Pigment, Red Pigment, and pride-themed pigments like Gay Pigment, Bisexual Pigment, and Asexual Pigment. To craft a pigment, you typically combine Amethyst Dust with a dye of the corresponding color. Pigments are cosmetic — they change the appearance of your hexes but do not affect their function. You can switch pigments at any time by holding a different one.

Focuses

A Focus is an item that modifies how your hexes behave. It can change the range, targeting, or other properties of a spell. To use a focus, hold it in your offhand while casting, or combine it with your staff. Different focuses may be required for certain advanced hexes. Experiment with different focuses to see how they alter your spells.

Practical Tips

Keep a variety of pigments in your inventory so you can color-code your hexes for different purposes. For example, use red for offensive spells and blue for utility. Focuses are often required for complex hexes, so collect them as you explore. You can find focuses in dungeon loot or craft them from Amethyst Dust and other materials. Always check the requirements of a hex before casting to ensure you have the right focus equipped.
