Our take on Sol Invictus
“Armor of the unconquered sun”
No conditions, no class lock: +10% damage and +4% crit chance work for every class against every enemy. That makes it the safest Mythic forge if you are unsure what your build will be, and the +8% Blessing area is a nice extra in crowded waves. It costs the same 280 Embers as the other forged Mythics.
What does the Sol Invictus set bonus do?
+10% Damage
A flat damage increase for everything you do, the same kind of bonus as the Gladius node Sharpened Edge (+2% per rank).
+4% Crit chance
More critical hits on top of the base 5%. Community Archer players stack crit chance with attack speed for their main damage.
+8% Blessing area
A wider Blessing. Area Blessings such as Whirl Cut (area 9) hit more of a crowd, which matters most in the Hardcore and Insane waves.
+28 Vitality and +140 Max HP
On our level-1 Gladiator with 124 Max HP, the set’s +140 Max HP alone would be a 113% increase. Every set adds flat health that scales with rarity. Mythic sets give +28 Vitality / +140 Max HP, against +23 / +115 for Legendary.
How do you get the Sol Invictus pieces?
| Slot | Piece | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Helm | Sun Crown | 60 Forge Embers |
| Chest | Solar Cuirass | 80 Forge Embers |
| Hands | Solar Gauntlets | 60 Forge Embers |
| Legs | Solar Greaves | 80 Forge Embers |
The full set costs 280 Forge Embers. The panel says “Embers come from Survival round 21 on”, and the Forge caps Embers at 40 a day, so even with perfect runs the set takes at least 7 days. Forge the pieces in the order that fits your build; the bonus only turns on with all four.
Mythic gear can also come from chests. These are the chests that can roll Mythic items:
| Chest | Mythic chance | Armor / weapon split | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Epic Chest | 5% | Armor 60% · Weapon 40% | 3,200 Cash or 99 Robux |
| Legendary chest | 15% | — | not sold (from codes and rewards) |
A chest that rolls Mythic still picks one item from every Mythic armor and weapon, so a specific piece of Sol Invictus is much rarer than the Mythic chance. The Epic Chest shows the split for Mythic rolls: “Weapons 1.7% · Sets 0.83% each”.
Who should use Sol Invictus?
- Long Survival runs: +10% Damage, +8% Blessing area.
- Trials, Weekly Raid and boss rounds: +10% Damage.
- Archer (bow): +4% Crit chance.
- Berserker (greatsword): +4% Crit chance.
- Blessing builds (Numen path): +8% Blessing area.
How to build around Sol Invictus
Long Survival runs. For long Survival runs, pick boons that match the set, never leave early (the result bonus drops to x0.50), and push past round 21, where Forge Embers start dropping for your next Legendary or Mythic set.
Trials, Weekly Raid and boss rounds. Boss bonuses matter in the four Trials (from level 10), the Weekly Raid and boss rounds such as Cerberus at round 20. The Gladius capstone Executioner (+20% damage to foes below 30% health) speeds up the end of every boss fight.
Archer (bow). Archers live on distance: keep both dashes ready, hold attack to keep shooting, and let every third shot’s volley hit groups. Community Archer runs past wave 50 stacked crit chance and attack speed from boons on top of their set.
Fit: our reading of the bonus Based on the class cards and skill tree we saw in game, not on damage tests.
