Invention System
This article is a stub. You can help the Rebirth Wiki by expanding it.
Overview
A system where "Players will be able to craft Enhancements and Costume pieces for their characters using recipes, and salvage that they find while adventuring." [1] It has also been stated that the long-rumored "Legacy System", which would allow for additional improvements of level 50 characters, has evolved/been wrapped up into the Invention System. [2]
The University
The University is the place where players learn to use the Invention System. Players can take a series of tutorial missions to learn about the system. The University also holds many Invention Worktables at which inventions may be created.
