Combat in Cursed Gear is not only about having powerful equipment. The way your abilities behave during fights can change dramatically depending on the Augments you use. These special modifications adjust how certain skills work, giving players different combat styles and strategies.
Some Augments improve range, while others increase damage or create new combo opportunities. Because of this, understanding how every Augment works can help you build a stronger setup for both PvE and PvP battles. Below is a full guide explaining all Augments currently available in Cursed Gear, along with how to unlock them.
What Are Augments in Cursed Gear?
Augments are special upgrades that modify the behavior of specific gear skills. Instead of using the default version of an ability, Augments change how the attack is performed. In the current version of the game, there are four Augments available. Each one affects a different skill type and can change the way your character fights.
Beam Augment
The Beam Augment modifies the Energy Blast ability used by Manipulator or Constructor classes. Instead of firing a single projectile blast, this Augment converts the attack into a continuous long-range beam.
Advantages
- Much longer attack range than the normal Energy Blast
- More reliable damage when attacking enemies from distance
Drawbacks
- Harder to hit quick or mobile targets
- Not very effective in close-range fights
How to Get Augments in Cursed Gear
To unlock Augments, players must travel to Neo Shibuya. A common way to reach this area is by starting an Expedition to the Pale District. Once you arrive there, locate the metro teleporter that leads to Neo Shibuya.
After entering the Neo Shibuya train station, head outside and follow the main road through the city. Continue walking until you reach a small intersection area. From there, turn into the nearby side street and look for the Kazu Shop. Inside the shop, you will find a table that displays several gears along with their Augments.
Each Augment costs 200 Fragments, and the shop sells the following:
- Axe Kick Augment
- Tri Energy Blast Augment
- Spectre Kick Augment
- Energy Beam Augment
Fragments can be obtained through various activities in the game, so players may need to farm them before purchasing multiple Augments.
Spectre Augment
The Spectre Augment changes how the Curse Blitz skill works for Projector users. Normally, Curse Blitz teleports the player between targets while attacking. With this Augment, the ability becomes a stationary barrage of rapid kicks.
Advantages
- High burst damage in a short time
- Strong when used against enemies caught in front of you
Drawbacks
- You remain stationary during the attack
- Attack pattern becomes predictable
Axe Kick Augment
The Axe Kick Augment alters the Ravager Sweep ability. Instead of performing a fast low kick, the attack becomes a powerful overhead axe kick that can break an opponent’s guard.
Advantages
- Effective against players who rely on blocking
- Opens opportunities for follow-up combos
Drawbacks
- Less useful if the enemy is not blocking
Tri Blast Augment
The Tri Blast Augment is another modification for the Energy Blast ability used by Manipulators and Constructors. This Augment splits the original blast into three separate projectiles.
Advantages
- Can hit multiple enemies at once
- Useful for area control and crowd fights
Drawbacks
- Each projectile deals lower damage
- Landing all three shots on a single enemy is difficult
Augments add an extra layer of strategy to Cursed Gear’s combat system. By changing how abilities behave, they allow players to experiment with different playstyles and builds. Some Augments focus on range, others improve burst damage, while a few are designed to counter defensive opponents.
Because of this, choosing the right Augment can make a big difference during difficult fights. If you are planning to strengthen your build, collecting these Augments from the Neo Shibuya shop is a great place to start. Once you unlock them, you can test different combinations and find the setup that works best for your playstyle.
