Hardened
What Hardened does
Chance to recover durability when damaged by players.
It triggers on defense and can be applied to all armors. The enchant goes up to level 3, and each level changes the numbers rather than the behaviour, so the table below is the whole picture.
Effects per level
| Level | Chance | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 25% | add durability current item -1 on the victim |
| 2 | 35% | add durability current item -1 on the victim |
| 3 | 45% | add durability current item -2 on the victim |
When it fires
Hardened only checks when a player hits you. Outside that moment the enchant is inert, so it is worth matching it to how you actually play.
Other Cosmic enchants that fire on the same trigger: Armored, Turmoil, Unholy. Stacking several of these on one item means more rolls in the same moment rather than coverage of new situations.

How to Obtain
Legendary Crate, high-tier pouches, and the vote bonus roll (0.1% chance per claimed vote).
See the How to Get Enchants page for all enchant sources and the recommended apply workflow.
Applying Enchants
Use /ae in-game to access the enchant menu. Higher-tier books have lower default apply success rates. Pair the book with Magic Dust to increase the success rate, and apply a White Scroll to the target item first to protect it from breaking on a failed apply.
