If we consider all possible options, we’re talking 906.192 combinations - feel free to do the math.
Shield

Jetpack
Your jetpack allows you to travel quickly but also aids in combat. Upgrade it as you progress through the game!
Talan Powers You'll acquire helpful abilities by finishing a village quest – like anti-gravity powers or flying creatures dropping bombs on enemies. Those powers are a part of the natural ecosystem of Adelpha. But keep in mind: The better the job you did in helping those villages, the stronger your powers will be.
