Aetherforged gear is Star-Iron: near-black plate veined with cyan-white light, forged from
Hihiirokane under conditions only a Dragonforge station can reach. It is the addon’s top-end
equipment — four weapons and a four-piece armour set — and every piece comes only from the
forge, so quality ranks, engravings and the minigame all
apply.
Nothing here needs a skill or a race. If you can run a Dragonforge, you can wield it.
Each weapon is a Divine-grade sidegrade with one signature active on right-click. Actives are
paid in aura and magicule and share nothing with each other.
| Weapon | Active | What it does | Cost (aura / magicule) | Cooldown |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spear | Piercing Vector | Hold to charge (up to 1.5 s), release to lunge forward and thrust 6 blocks for 1.5×–3× your attack damage, scaled by charge | 300 / 300 | 8 s |
| Katana | Phase Cut | Arms the blade for 5 s; the next hit you land adds half your attack damage as phase damage that ignores armour | 250 / 250 | 10 s (from arming) |
| War Hammer | Crushing Impact | Slam a 4-block ring around you for 1.2× attack damage, knock-up and Slowness II for 3 s | 400 / 400 | 12 s |
| Gauntlets | Aether Burst | A 3.5-block shockwave for 0.8× attack damage that hurls everything outward | 200 / 200 | 8 s |
All costs and cooldowns are defaults and server-configurable.
The gauntlets are worn, not held — they render as bracers on your arms rather than an item in
your hand.
The armour sits a full step above Hihiirokane in every number — defense, toughness, knockback
resistance and durability — and every piece is a fresh canvas for forge engravings.
Wear the full four-piece set and it answers your power: incoming damage is reduced by up to
25% (default), scaling linearly with your EP and reaching its peak at ten million EP. Below
that the reduction is proportional — one million EP is 2.5%, five million is 12.5%.
All eight recipes are Dragonforge-tier:
| Result | Inputs |
|---|---|
| Helmet / Chestplate / Leggings / Boots | the matching Hihiirokane piece + 2 Hihiirokane Ingots + 2 Orichalcum Ingots |
| Spear / Katana | the Hihiirokane spear or katana + 2 Hihiirokane Ingots + 2 Orichalcum Ingots |
| War Hammer | 4 Hihiirokane Ingots + 2 Pure Magisteel Ingots + 2 Earth Element Cores |
| Gauntlets | 4 Hihiirokane Ingots + 2 Pure Magisteel Ingots + 2 Space Element Cores |
The finished Hihiirokane input is consumed — you are reforging it, not copying it. Because these
are forge crafts, a Superior-or-better result arrives pre-engraved, and a crit-heavy craft can
even pick up a cursed engraving.
