* The final Level 6 row has no further required kill amount.
* Grey/trivial kills are not useful for evolution.

Blighted Gear Evolution Guide

Blighted Shadowsbane armor begins in Crushbone and evolves as you earn experience-bearing kills through later chapters of Shadowed Eclipse.

<c style="color:#ffcc00">Current requirements were reduced by half on June 22, 2026.</c> These numbers may be adjusted again as server balance evolves.

The important rule

Kills only count when the kill produces experience. If the target is trivial, too weak, or otherwise gives no experience, it will not advance Blighted gear.

Wear the evolving piece while fighting in one of the listed zones for that tier.

Current kill requirements

Stage Requirement Valid zones
Tier 1 -> Tier 2 2,500 experience-bearing kills Mines of Gloomingdeep, Befallen, Unrest, Najena, Arena, Brell's Arena, old Plane of Hate
Tier 2 -> Tier 3 5,000 experience-bearing kills Plane of Hate B, Kaesora, Droga, Nurga, Dalnir, Howling Stones, City of Mist, Veksar, Karnor's Castle, Sebilis, Chardok
Tier 3 -> Tier 4 7,500 experience-bearing kills Veeshan's Peak, Dragon Necropolis, Kael, Siren's Grotto, Crystal Caverns, Plane of Growth, Sleeper's Tomb, Temple of Veeshan, Tower of Frozen Shadow, Velketor
Tier 4 -> Tier 5 10,000 experience-bearing kills Ssraeshza Temple, Crypt of Decay, Plane of Disease, Plane of Justice, Plane of Innovation, Bastion of Thunder, Plane of Storms, Solusek Ro's Tower, Plane of Tactics, Plane of Air, Plane of Time A, Plane of Time B
Tier 5 -> Tier 6 20,000 experience-bearing kills Crypt of Decay, Plane of Disease, Plane of Justice, Plane of Innovation, Bastion of Thunder, Plane of Storms, Solusek Ro's Tower, Plane of Tactics, Plane of Air, Plane of Time A, Plane of Time B

Total current requirement: 45,000 experience-bearing kills per piece from Tier 1 to Tier 6.

Where the armor starts

The first Blighted Shadowsbane pieces begin in Crushbone. The orc champions have been receiving chests of glowing armor, and their named champions may drop the starter pieces.

Slot Starter item Starts evolution line Drop notes
Wrist Blighted Shadowsbane Bracer Bracer line Crushbone named champions
Hands Blighted Shadowsbane Gauntlets Gauntlet line Crushbone named champions
Arms Blighted Shadowsbane Vambraces Vambraces line Crushbone named champions
Legs Blighted Shadowsbane Leggings Leggings line Crushbone named champions
Head Blighted Shadowsbane Helm Helm line Crushbone named champions
Feet Blighted Shadowsbane Boots Boots line Crushbone named champions
Chest Blighted Shadowsbane Breastplate Chest line Emperor Crush

Evolution flow

Each armor slot follows the same kill-count structure:

  1. Find the starter piece in Crushbone.
  2. Wear the piece while earning experience-bearing kills in the Tier 1 zone list.
  3. When the piece evolves, move on to the next valid zone list.
  4. Continue through Tier 6, the final result.

Practical notes

  • If the item does not move, first check whether the target gave experience.
  • Grey/trivial kills are not useful for evolution.
  • Different armor slots evolve independently; each piece needs its own kill credit.
  • The requirements above are current server values and may be tuned later.
