The latest update features the new Atlantean Essence in Arcane Odyssey. In this guide, I’ll explain everything you’ll need to know about the Atlantean Essence – what it is, how it functions, and the incredible power it brings upon your equipment and gear. Before we proceed, you should know, it’s not just powerful, it’s downright game breaking. Without any delay, let’s take a look!
How Does Atlantean Essence Work?
So, before we know how it works, Atlantean Essence is an enchantment that can be applied to your armor, acting as a secondary layer of enchantment. This secondary enchantment imparts additional statistics to your gear, but it comes at a cost: your character’s sanity.
With that said, be careful on using them, as excessive use of Atlantean Essence can be too much for you to handle, even possibly killing your character.

To get started, let’s take a closer look at the mechanics. So, you’ll have Atlantean Essence in your inventory, and you can apply it to any piece of armor equipment you desire, from chestplates to rings, which offers a lot of room for flexibility.
When applied, your gear will get an enhanced status effect, like the Atlantean Deluxe Iron Boots or Atlantean Deluxe Iron Helm, for example.
However, there’s a specific order in which these effects are applied:
- Power
- Defense
- Attack Size
- Attack Speed
- Agility
- Intensity
The intriguing part is that Atlantean Essence has the ability to fill in the gaps in your gear’s base stats. So, if your gear lacks a particular stat, Atlantean Essence will provide it.
For instance, if you take a close look at a piece of gear, let’s say a Calvus Plate, it has 151 Defense, which is a combination of its base stats and Atlantean Essence contributions.
Atlantean Essence Manipulation
Furthermore, Atlantean Essence is influenced by the presence of jewels on your gear. These jewels add an extra layer of complexity to the enchantment.
Suppose you attach a Defense Jewel to a Calvus Plate; it will alter the effect of Atlantean Essence, shifting it from defense to attack speed, allowing you to craft some unique and potent gear combinations.
It’s important to note that Atlantean Essence isn’t affected by traditional enchantments, making it a unique and powerful addition to your arsenal.
The Loop Technique
But the real magic lies in the “Loop Technique.” With this method, you can even force Atlantean Essence to grant you power, even if your armor piece already has power. To achieve this, you must apply all six stats to the armor piece.
Let’s use a Calus King Armor as an example: it already possesses Power, Defense, Size, and Agility, but it’s lacking Attack Speed and Intensity. By adding a jewel with those missing attributes, you can dramatically increase your gear’s effectiveness.
This unique flexibility allows surprising combinations, which can let you reach around a whopping 260+ Power, which wasn’t even possible before.
The ability to fine-tune your gear with Atlantean Essence and jewels in Arcane Odyssey introduces a fresh mechanic and endless possibilities in the game. Experiment with different combinations, and you might just reach an entirely different level of power. If you have questions or concerns, feel free to leave them in the comments section below.
