Wayfinder- What Is Imbuement And Combination Of Imbuement

WayfinderIn Wayfinder, the Lost Zones are the important aspect of the game where we can earn XP, weapons, echoes and unlock parts for the Wayfinders. You will be often playing either solo or party with someone to upgrade your character by gaining multiple loots. Before starting the expedition, you will be given the option to use Imbuement once you reach a certain stage in the main story. So what is Imbuement?

What Is Imbuement And Why To Use It In Wayfinder

Imbuements are a type of consumables that will be used in the Lost Zones. It can be imbued to your Gloom Dagger at the beginning of the Expeditions and Hunts on Lost Zones to let Mutators gain certain buffs and increase the difficulties of the run. Why are we increasing the difficulties? To earn more XP and gain more valuable loot.

Imbuements can be added individually or two to power up the Mutators. Remember, adding Imbuements will not increase the Power Rating. However, additional challenges in the form of mutators will be added throughout the whole expedition. Specific Imbuements or combination Imbuements will give certain results or loots in either Expeditions or Hunts.
