Codex of Shadows
A Codex of Shadows is a rare, endgame special Enchanted Book that contains a single low-leveled Augment. This can be applied to any available weapon or tool at an Anvil, at the cost of a significant number of levels. Up to 3 Codexes may be added to a single item; however, unlike with Enchanted Books, adding two Codexes of the same level will not upgrade the level.
Level Cost
| Codex Number | Level Cost |
|---|---|
| 1st | 35 |
| 2nd | 60 |
| 3rd | 85 |
| 4th+ | 9999 (impossible) |
Ways of Obtaining
Codex of Shadows can be obtained in the following ways:
- Very rarely from End City loot chests, at a rate of 3/1000.
- Uncommonly from Keystone Bosses
| Boss Tier | Codex Chance |
|---|---|
| 0 x 💀 | 0% |
| 1 x 💀 | 15% |
| 2 x 💀 | 30% |
| 3 x 💀 | 50% |
| 4 x 💀 | 0% |
| 5 x 💀 | 0% |
- Commonly from the Ender Dragon
- Rolls twice: 40% chance for the first one, and 10% chance for the second one
- This means there's a 4% chance to get two, but each player can only receive 1 per kill
