Off-Hand items are equipment that either give a passive effect or grant a special ability if held.

General Information

All off-hands are one-handed. If a hero loses one arm or undergoes some transformation, no off-hands will be equipped.

Like all equipment, off-hands cannot be transferred or traded among heroes after being assigned.

Generally, a hero can only hold/equip one off-hand at a time, and unlike weapons only one may be owned per hero.

Off-Hand Qualities

Off-hands can be basic quality (i.e. the randomly generated off-hands that you come across during your play), artifact quality (named off-hands that have set descriptions and stats/abilities).

Basic Off-Hands

Basic off-hands are the most widely available. They are often obtained through random loot, but they can also be crafted with the correct resources or using legacy points. Basic off-hands typically do not offer any additional bonuses beyond what might be normal for an off-hand of their type.

Artifact Off-Hands

Artifact off-hands are most notable for their unique bonuses, visual appearances, and the fact that they carry over with a legacy hero into their next story or campaign (rather than being lost as most equipment is). Many are obtained through random drops, but some are available through specific events or moments in the main campaigns. They are never available to be crafted, and unlike weapons they cannot be upgraded.
