Zikkars
Zikkars are artifacts of the mysterious Tangors, used to transform green Set items into respective blue Set elements.
Zikkars can be acquired by players of level 32+ in the Razed Fort or purchased at the Auction.
To use a Zikkar, you must first charge it with battle fury in PvP combats:
• Arena of Honor;
• Seven Bridges of Shadan;
• Tournament of Honor;
• Sea Battles.
Please note that when you start charging a Zikkar, it becomes personal and can't be sold to other players anymore. A fully charged artifact turns into a Materialized Zikkar. To upgrade an item with it, you will need some Magical Dust which can be obtained by dismantling Weapons and Armor you no longer need, or purchased at the Auction.
When you have both components, equip the item you wish to upgrade, select the Materialized Zikkar (its type should correspond with the item you wish to upgrade) in your Backpack and click use to complete the process.
