Affix Tier List & Finder
Rankings, market liquidity, and reverse-lookup by stat family for every jewel and gear piece in War of Genesis: Idle Loot.
Affix & Jewel Value Tier List
Early Access MetaNot all affixes are created equal. In War of Genesis: Idle Loot, jewel affixes dictate both combat efficiency and Steam Community Market trade velocity. Based on live market volume, price retention, and hero progression utility, here is the definitive affix tier hierarchy:
Multiplies item drop rates. The single highest-priced jewel because it compounds all future AFK revenue.
Core attack scaling. Highest velocity commodity on Steam with 3,200+ High-Grade trade orders.
Maximum health buffer. Essential for preventing overnight hero wipeouts on high boss stages.
Attack speed and mobility. Accelerates on-hit proc rates, critical opportunities, and lifesteal frequency.
Critical hit rate and multiplier. The core endgame stat for burst DPS to beat stage enrage timers.
Physical armor and flat damage mitigation. Paired with Life jewels to maximize effective health pool (EHP).
Budget combat upgrade. Frequently used as Blacksmith forge fodder to combine for higher tier jewels.
Elemental (Hellfire / Elements), Magic Resistance, and Destruction (PvP). These jewels serve specific stage encounters or elemental boss checks, resulting in lower daily trade turnover. Keep them for situational encounters rather than active market flipping.
Shopping War of Genesis gear by stat, not by name
Every tradable piece in War of Genesis: Idle Loot carries a stat identity on top of its tier. A sword and a jewel can both feed the same build, and scrolling the market board page by page is the slow way to find them. This Affix Finder groups the whole live catalog by stat family instead — pick Life for a tankier hero, Arcana for crit, Strife for raw offense — and see every item in that family with its current price and how many people are listing it.
The jewel families are the fastest-moving market here. Because a stat jewel helps every build regardless of class — unlike a weapon, which only fits one — Life, Strife and Arcana jewels sit on the deepest books and clear fastest. If your goal is to turn a bag into Steam wallet cash, start by clicking those three families. The deeper explanation of how affixes and jewels actually work lives in the Jewels & Affixes guide.
Don't forget the other two prongs of pricing: the tier ladder (only Tier 3+ is tradeable, and each tier step multiplies value) and listing depth. A stat jewel with 40 listings is a race to undercut; the same jewel with three listings is a patient seller's market. Read both numbers before you list — the pricing guide walks through it.

Jewels, affixes & what to sell first
What is the affix tier list for War of Genesis: Idle Loot? +
S-Tier affixes are Luck (drop-rate multiplier), Strife (attack power), and Life (maximum HP) due to universal demand across all classes. A-Tier includes Wind (attack speed) and Arcana (critical rate). B-Tier includes Fortitude (defense) and Valor (budget offense). C-Tier covers situational elemental and magic resistance affixes.
Where do jewels drop in War of Genesis: Idle Loot? +
Jewels drop from farmable stages along with gear, and are the most liquid family on the board — "Jewel of Life", "Jewel of Strife" and the others trade constantly. Pick a stat family above to see every jewel and its live price in that family at once.
What do the gear affixes (Lifesteal, crit, elemental) mean? +
Each gear piece rolls stat affixes. This finder groups items by stat family — Life/HP, Strife/offense, Crit, Luck, Defense, Magic Resist, Elemental, Destruction and so on — so you can shop for the stat you want instead of scrolling the market blind. Exact per-item roll values (like Lifesteal %) are still being excavated and will land in a later update; today the mapping is the official item naming, which is an honest starting point, not a full affix dictionary.
What should I sell first when my bag is full of loot? +
Sell the high-tier, high-liquidity pieces first: Tier 5–6 gear and the jewels, because they sit at the top of the value ladder and have the deepest books. Low-tier commons are usually worth less than the effort to list them — but check the board, because even "boring" Tier 4 gear sometimes sells above flashier drops when depth is thin.
