This guide series aims to introduce you to the features and mechanics of modules and crafting in Golem Overlord. This is the tenth post of the series and explains how the Apex Mark works, including instructions on a secret way to get an additional big stat on Omega and Quantum Amplifiers.
If you are unfamiliar with the basics of modules, the Pyrite Forge, Forge Sigils, and crafting I recommend reading the previous posts in this series before reading this post.
The Golem Overlord Module Guide Curated Collection has links to all related posts in this guide. You can view it as a curated collection or as a post. I will continue adding posts to the collection as they are published.
The final airdrop for Yixn's Trinkets, the Apex Mark, has been released. They can be obtained from the airdrop page and are now available when opening Yixn's Trinkets crates.
The Apex Mark is likely the second-best Forge Sigil currently available aside from Yixn's hair. It is used to upgrade the lowest possible magnitude stat on a module.
The Apex Mark can drop in precious, exceptional, invaluable, enigma, and Artifact rarities. You can see this by the half-circles above the Apex Mark writing on the NFT.
The description in the middle "Enhances the lowest maximum magnitude to a [medium/ medium/ medium/ big/ big] magnitude on [a precious/ an exceptional/ any/ an Invaluable/ any] module" means:
Please note, that the Apex Mark does not change any stats or stat values on a module. The Apex Mark only changes the lowest magnitude possible to add to a module.
After using the Apex Mark, you will still need to craft the module with other Forge Sigils if you want to change or add stats. If your stats are already full, you'll need to use a Transmutative Orb, Nullification Crystal, or a Fragment of Entropy for the chance to remove and add new stats.
If you already have an empty stat available after using Apex Mark, you'll likely want to try using a Smelter's Trinity to fill the empty stat.
This is a secret that was discovered by players and posted in the Golem Overlord Discord. The developer (Yixn) has since confirmed that it was not originally intended but will remain as an allowed function.
With the right combination of Forge Sigils, it is possible to exceed the maximum number of big (red) stats by one. The same concept also applies to medium yellow stats.
For example, an Omega Amplifier starts with only a maximum possible one big stat, two medium stats, and one small stat. This can be seen below indicated by the red, yellow, and green dots.
The Omega Amplifier shown in the results below has 3 big (red) stats! How was this accomplished?
The works because the locked big stat (now white) is no longer counted as a big stat when crafting.
Crafting in Golem Overlord can be complicated. If you have questions about how the Apex Mark or other Forge Sigils work, ask in the comments or the Golem Overlord Discord server and I or other players will be happy to answer any questions.
There are currently ten different Forge Sigils that can drop from Yixn's Trinkets Crates. Please see the Golem Overlord Module Guide: Forge Sigils for a detailed explanation of how the rest of these Forge Sigils work.
In the next post, I will look at more use cases for crafting. I may also try my luck with more void stones to see if I can get lucky and upgrade another module to a higher rarity.
Please leave feedback on this post in the comments or the Golem Overlord Discord. I'll do my best to keep it updated as a reference for players.
