How upgrading works
A two-way upgrade system
In Shelter of Exiles a weapon is not just a number in the inventory — it is part of your creature's value.
Ascension Rarity
The second track: push rarity to unlock new variants and bonuses.
Part of the dNFT
Creatures, equipment and consumables combine into dynamic dNFTs.
Elements
Five elements, five fighting styles
The nothing that swallows the other elements. It scatters protection and steals turns.
73 / 73
Shields (7)
Blocks blows and shelters the allies behind it. Irreplaceable in the front line.
Defense
Axes (8)
Slow but relentless — a single swing cracks armour and breaks the enemy's formation.
Heavy damage
Bows (8)
They shoot from above the enemy line before the foe can close the gap.
Range
Daggers (8)
Short reach, fast strikes — at their best when they find an unguarded back.
Speed / crits
Hammers (5)
They crush armour and topple the strongest. Weight does all the work here.
Armour / stuns
Pendulums (5)
Arcane weaponry — instead of a blade it works through rhythm, magnetism and swing.
Magic / control
Scepters (2)
A mark of command and a channel for magic — it empowers those who stand beneath it.
Authority / buffs
Scythes (5)
They reap the battlefield — one wide cut mows down whole ranks.
Area / bleed
Spears (7)
Long reach and a counter for chargers — they keep the foe at the end of the shaft.
Reach / counter
Swords (11)
The most versatile weapon in the arsenal — dependable in any hand and any squad.
Balanced
Wands (7)
They focus the elements into a single gesture — frail in body, mighty in spell.
