Engraving Guide - How to Get and Reroll

Engravings in Sword of Convallaria (SoC) are upgrades that you can apply to your Gear! Read on to see the types of engravings, how to engrave and reroll, and our recommendations!

How to Get Engravings

Radiant Forging Rewards

Engravings can be obtained by clearing "Radiant Forging" in "Crossing Worlds". However, note that engravings only start dropping from Stage 8 onwards.

Shop Exchange

Engravings can purchased from the shop by visiting the Reputation, Memory Crystal, and Insignia tabs. Note that each tab will require a different type of currency, so be aware that you may not have enough to buyout the shop if you are a new player.

How to Apply and Reroll Engravings

Apply by Enhancing Gear

You can engrave your gear via the "Gear Engraving" tab on the Gear enhancement screen by selecting the "+" button.

Types of Engravings

Differences per Rarity

The higher the rarity of the Engraving, the more likely you are to roll powerful stats, but it will cost more Elysium Coins. During the early game while resources are short, it's recommended to apply lower rarity Engravings across your whole main lineup before trying to roll for perfect stats.

How to Reroll Engravings

Get Engravings

Clear "Radiant Forging" in "Crossing Worlds" to get the Engravings you want to reroll. You will also need the target Gear to start rerolling.

Apply Engravings to Gear

Spend Engravings and Elysium Coins to apply them. The higher the rarity of the Engraving, the more Elysium Coins are required, so be careful not to run out of coins.

Note!Max stats do not change with rarity

Higher rarity Engravings are more likely to yield higher stat values. However, the maximum value does not change with rarity, so in the early game, it's recommended to do more rerolls with lower rarity Engravings.

Repeat until you get your ideal stats

If you are not satisfied with the additional stats, you can apply another Engraving to overwrite it. Unlike Tarot, you don't have to start from scratch, so there's no need to re-farm the Gear.

Note!If you run out of Engravings, farm "Radiant Forging"

If you run out of Engravings while rerolling, farm "Radiant Forging" to collect more. Alternatively, you could purchase engravings from the shop, but you are limited by the shop's stock, and will have to wait for the monthly re-stock before you can purchase more.

Wand+Cup Chance to grant Skill CD 0 + NRG refund effect	★★★★・ Especially recommended for characters with powerful Skills that have long CDs.
Sword+Pentacle ATK/DEF UP when Unharmed	★★★★・ Useful for Ranged attackers that you want to keep from taking damage, or in solo-battles where you need to heal back to full HP after every hit.
Wand+Pentacle Physical Damage Reduction	★★★・・ Useful for Defenders who tank P.ATK, or for surviving a boss's physical attacks.

How to Unlock Engravings

Complete The Fool's Journey 8-5

The Engraving feature is unlocked by clearing The Fool's Journey 8-5. If you are only new to the game, do not feel the need to rush towards this content since it is fairly expensive to achieve perfect stat rolls.

What Are Engravings?

Strengthen Gear by Applying Engravings

By applying Engravings to Gear, you can add additional stats and Engraving types, making the Gear more powerful. The additional stat values are random, so just like with Tarot, there is a rerolling element.

Gain Stat Boosts and Buffs

By consuming Engravings and Elysium Coins, you can grant 1 to 3 stat-boosts to Gear. The maximum stat values differ depending on the Engraving type, so choose Engravings based on the equipping character and the stats you want.

Activate Engraving Resonance

You will acquire a passive skill known as "Engraving Resonance" based on the combination of Engravings applied to a character's equipped Weapon and Trinket.
