You will need the items for one of these 3 options:

	Quest Name	Requirements
Option 1	[Crafting] Ator’s Shoes – Blackstar Shoes	PEN: Blackstar Shoes Flame of Resonance x1
Option 2	[Crafting] Ator’s Shoes – Urugon’s Shoes	PEN: Urugon’s Shoes (Caphras Lv. 10) Flame of Resonance x1
Option 3	[Crafting] Ator’s Shoes – Muskan’s Shoes	PEN: Muskan’s Shoes (Caphras Lv. 10) Flame of Resonance x1

It is recommended to use PEN Urugon’s Shoes or PEN Muskan’s Shoes since the PEN Blackstar is difficult it is to obtain. It is much easier to get a PEN boss armor, then upgrade the armor with caphras.

Since there are also 2 different types of the Ator’s Shoes, the version you obtain depends on the shoes you use:

• if you use PEN Blackstar or PEN Urugon’s Shoes, you will obtain the Damage Reduction (blue version) of Ator’s Shoes
• If you use PEN Muskan’s Shoes, you will obtain the Evasion (green version) of Ator’s Shoes

With the items in your inventory, you can then proceed with the “[Crafting] Ator’s Shoes” quest fromDurgeff at Atessahra.

• The quest is only available if you are level 56+
• If you cannot see the quest, make sure all quests are turned ON at the bottom of your Quest Log (O). The icons should all be yellow!

Flame of Resonance

You can craft a Flame of Resonance by Processing > Heating 100 Embers of Resonance

Both the Embers and Flame of Resonance have a low chance of dropping from monsters in the Dark Seeker’s Retreat and Yzrahid Highlands monster zones. The flame can also be bought from the central market. I would advise putting a pre-order on the item as early as possible since it can take months for the pre-order to go through.

Ator’s Shoes Exchange Quest

Since there are 2 different versions of the Ator’s Shoes, you can exchange between the two whenever you like.

• The quest is obtained fromDurgeff NPC in Ateshsara
• When you complete the exchange quest, the family name of the adventurer who completed the exchange quest will be engraved regardless of the family name engraved on the shoes previously.
• The quest is a recurring quest, so there is no limit to the number of times you can complete it.

Quest NPC	Requirements	Completion reward
Durgeff (Located in Atessahra)	Hand over 1 pair of Ator’s Shoes Hand over Scorching Sun Shard x200 OR Crystalized Despair x50	1 pair of Ator’s Shoes – different from the one handed over (Same level of enhancement)

• Scorching Sun Shards are obtainable from Calpheon Elvia grind zones.

How to Enhance

Just like the Fallen God Armor, Labreska Helmet and Dahn’s Gloves, the Ator’s Shoes are tricky to enhance.

The Ator’s Shoes have the same stats as PEN Blackstar Shoes but can be enhanced from base to PEN. The % chance of success is very low.

Due to how difficult the item is to enhance, most players enhance to DUO and then come back to the item at a later date with cron stones to do TRI attempts with a high stack.

Each attempt requires a Flawless Chaotic Black Stone and a failed attempt reduces 30 max durability. You can use Cron stones but it is very costly and there is no Caphras levels or force enhance option for this item.

To create a Flawless Chaotic Black Stone you will need:

You can also use Black Stone Powder x1 with either recipe to make x10 at once

Failstack Chart

Dahn’s Gloves have the same failstack % chance as Fallen God Armor, so you can refer to the image below for optimal failstacks and cron stone cost.

Agris Essence Required

Agris Essence is gained every time you fail to enhance a piece of gear. Fallen God Armor, Labreska Helmet, Dahn’s Gloves, and Ator’s Shoes share Agris Essence, and once you reach a certain amount of Agris Essence you can enhance the gear with 100% success chance. The table below shows the amount of Agris Essence you need for each enhancement level.

• For example, to enhance a DUO Ator’s Shoes to TRI, you would need 20 Agris Essence, which means you would need to fail to enhance DUO > TRI 20 times.
