What is Branding? #
Branding in Dekaron is a system that enhances your gear with extra stats. By using Soul Stones, you can add and reroll stat bonuses on your weapons, armor, and accessories to maximize your character’s power.
Why is Branding Important? #
- Boosts attack, defense, HP, and other stats
- Helps optimize damage output and survivability
- Essential for endgame PvP and PvE
What You Need for Branding #
Soul Stones #
The key material for branding! There are different types, but the one you need is:
- 100% Soul Stones – Guarantees a successful reroll
- Other types (20%, 40%, 80%) exist, but 100% is the best
Where to Get 100% Soul Stones?
- NPC Jack (Ardeca) → New Seed of Dream Exchange → Premium Section
- Exchange 1500 Seed of Dreams for 850x 100% Soul Stones
How to Farm Seed of Dreams?
