Medals

Medals are items that can be equipped to characters in order to increase their stats. There are medals for every character, along with some exclusive event medals that appear as pink in the medal inventory. Medals must be crafted with three of the same shards (ex. 3x Luffy medal shards can craft one Luffy medal).

Synergies
All medals belong to different groups like Blood Brothers (Ace, Luffy, and Sabo) and Straw Hat Pirates (Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, etc.). If two equipped medals have the same synergies then the character the medals are equipped to will get extra boosts.

Traits
Most kinds of medals can possess a maximum of three traits. To unlock a trait on a medal, the medal must be upgraded. Players upgrade Medals by going to the Upgrade section of the Medal tab and selecting the Medal that they want to upgrade. Upgrading Medals costs Beli and takes time depending on how many times the Medal has been upgraded, although the process can be sped up with Hammers. Traits also have different rarities depending on its effect, with 1 star being the lowest and 3 stars being the highest.

Normal Medals
These are the most basic type of medals and can be obtained from League Battles.

Event Medals
Event medal shards can only be obtained in a limited amount of time. Event medals and shards are pink, and most medals are of unplayable characters. Upgrading, crafting, and transferring event medals can complete limited-time missions for that event.

Leaderboard Medals
Leaderboard Medals look like Normal Medals in the medal inventory, except the character depicted on Leaderboard Medals are colored. Leaderboard Shards can only be obtained by staying on the top 100 leaderboard for having the most League Battle points with a character for an entire season. Players that manage to do so will get one Leaderboard Medal shard at the end of a season for the character whose leaderboard they stayed on.

Transfer Medals
Transfer Medals can not be directly equipped to a character and can be obtained from the Exchange shop. Transfer Medals only possess a single trait, and it is only meant to be transferred to another medal (hence the name). Traits on Transfer Medals are more helpful and boost stats higher than traits on normal medals.
