Outfit slots will allow you to improve the stats of your character. Make your character as strong as possible by adding crystals to your gear by following these easy steps below.

 Items Needed To Add Crystal Slots To Outfit

Outfit 

To start, you need to have an outfit purchased from the Central Market or Pearl Shop. There are three categories of Ancient Spirit Crystal that you can add to your outfit, namely, speed, valor, and viper. 

Speed, Valor, or Viper Crystals

Ancient Spirit Crystal – Speed

Speed crystals can be added to all types of travel wear, Calpheon Noble, and Serendian Formal Suit that’s not from the marketplace. Gives +2 Speed

Valor Crystals

Valor crystals can be added to Serendian, Ahon Kirus, and Delphe Knight Armors, as well as Serendian Smith Garb and Florin Herb Gatherer Clothes. Gives +1 Crit.

Viper Crystals

The viper crystals can be added to Shroud Knight, Jarette’s, Black Leopard Armor, and Jordine’s Casual. 

Gives +1 Attack&Casting Speed.

We will be focusing on Ancient Spirit Crystal Speed because this is the handiest of all three. 

I recommend you pick the one to ensure you get level 5 in your abilities. For example if you lack speed, go for the speed crystal, if you lack crit, go for the crit crystal.

Black Spirit’s Claw

The first item you need is the Black Spirit’s Claw that you can craft after purchasing three Black Spirit’s Claw Pieces from the Central Market. 

Once you have them in your inventory, arrange them in a straight horizontal line and click on the plus sign to turn them into one Black Spirit’s Claw

Costume

You will also need a costume. See above in the crystals section which outfit you need for which crystal. The third is the piece of clothing that contains the additional effect or buff. It can either be crafted in Heidels Costume Mill or purchased from the Central Market. If you are unsure, you can hover over the item, in this case it says “If you use an equipment tailoring coupon you will get the same item as a costume, with an additional effect of Movement Speed +2”. This is the effect we are after.

Equipment Tailoring Coupon

Second is the Equipment Tailoring Coupon that can be purchased from the Central Market and Pearl Shop.

Adding Crystal Slots To Outfit

Now that you have the costume, pearl shop outfit, crystals, Black spirit claw, and Equipment Tailoring Coupon, open your inventory and right-click on the Black Spirit’s Claw. 

This will open the ‘Enhancement’ tab on the other side of your screen, and you can then right-click on the outfit you want to equip.

Notice that your ‘Enhancement’ tab now has both the Black Spirit’s Claw and the outfit. Hit the ‘Enhance’ button below to have that extra slot added finally. Now you will have an empty crystal slot in your pearl shop outfit.

How Do I Add Crystals To The Newly Added Outfit Crystal Slot?

If you go back to your inventory and check your outfit stats, you will see that you have now successfully added a slot to it and now ready to equip the outfit through Transfusion. 

To do this, right-click on the Equipment Tailoring Coupon in your inventory to open the ‘Switch Equipment’ tab. Once you have the tab opened, right-click on the crafted piece of clothing, click on the ‘Switch Equipment’ button. 

It will provide you a new costume that requires heating to extract the crystal. Open your ‘Processing’ tab, then select ‘Heating.’ In your inventory, right-click on the new costume item, and then hit ‘Start.’ 

The Ancient Spirit Crystal – Swiftness will then appear in your inventory. Right-click on the crystal to open the ‘Transfusion’ tab and select the outfit you want to equip and the crystal. 

An ‘Insert into Socket’ pop-up will appear. Click on ‘Yes (Enter),’ and just like that, you will have the Ancient Spirit Crystal – Swiftness Movement Speed +2 equipped in the outfit. Equip the outfit to get the new boost.

You now have improved the stats of your character!
