To complete the full Divine Glory Ancient Equipment set in Era of Celestials, you must consistently compete in the recurring, cross-server Strongest Vanquisher tournament. The set requires exclusive crafting materials and tournament currency that accumulate over dozens of seasonal brackets. Once earned, these resources are used to synthesize individual gear pieces in the Ancient Equipment menu.
Gathering Materials in Strongest Vanquisher
The Strongest Vanquisher tournament serves as the primary source for Divine Glory synthesis materials and tournament currency. Because a full set demands an extensive accumulation of seasonal rewards, steady participation across many tournament cycles is required.
To maximize material yields during tournament windows:
- Pre-buff prior to queuing: Activate guild feast attributes, consumable combat elixirs, and title buffs before entering match brackets.
- Coordinate transformation bursts: Time your Celestial transformation skills, active sprite abilities, and relic triggers to align during crowd-control or stun windows.
- Adapt to opponent setups: Adjust defensive soul cards and resistance stats between rounds based on whether your opponent relies on quick burst damage or sustained control.
- Prioritize tournament consistency: Entering the highest possible placement bracket every season yields more total currency over time than sporadic, high-risk single-match wins.
Recommended Crafting Order
After collecting tournament materials, open the Ancient Equipment interface to forge individual Divine Glory pieces. Synthesizing these items consumes tournament cores, Ancient recipes, and enhancement stones.
Prioritize weapon and primary armor pieces first to secure core stat gains before finishing secondary accessories:
| Priority | Gear Slots | Primary Stat Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Main Weapon & Offhand | Attack percentage, offensive penetration, and skill multipliers |
| 2 | Chest Armor & Helm | Maximum HP scaling, flat defense, and damage mitigation |
| 3 | Greaves & Boots | Dodge ratings, mobility, and crowd-control duration reduction |
| 4 | Accessories & Rings | Hit rating, critical strike chance, and final set completion |
Avoid spending tournament currency on intermediate or alternative Ancient gear lines. Concentrating all seasonal resources exclusively on Divine Glory items prevents stat dilution and speeds up set milestone completion.
Activating Set Resonance
While individual Divine Glory pieces increase Battle Rating and grant base attributes, the primary advantage comes from set resonance thresholds. Equipping pieces at two-piece, four-piece, and full-set increments unlocks layered combat bonuses.
Full resonance grants percentage-based damage amplification and PvP-specific damage reduction. Because flat defensive stats face diminishing returns against heavily upgraded opponents in high-tier cross-server play, percentage-based damage mitigation from a complete Ancient set provides the survivability needed to withstand initial burst combos in competitive arena matches. Save your crafting materials until you have enough to unlock a complete milestone tier rather than crafting standalone pieces that offer no immediate resonance boost.

The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
