Every Teamfight Tactics set showcases a feature mechanic—and Set Six Gizmos and Gadgets/Set 6.5 Neon Nights is no different. The set brings a new mechanic called Hextech Augments to the fray.

Over 140 possible TFT Set 6.5 Hextech Augments can show up in an Armory, with over 80 more getting added in Set 6.5 Neon Nights. Each player receives options that are equal in power and come from the same tier but are different from each other. A total of three tiers of Hextech Augments exist in Set 6.5: Silver, Gold, and Prismatic.

Some options have multiple versions across tiers, while others are unique. Hextech Augments mean to shift the focus off of TFT items, opening the door for flexible gameplay while also possibly doubling down on early-game decisions.

Options are offered to players a total of three times throughout a game via a Hextech Augment Armory. These Armories will appear at Stages 1-3, 3-5, and 5-1. Hyper Roll Hextech Augments will appear at Stages 3-1, 5-2, and 7-2. The total chance of a Prismatic game in TFT Set 6.5 was increased from 31 to 33 percent.

Here’s a table of how often silver, gold, and prismatic options will appear:

Players can see what Hextech Augments opponents have received, along with their own, via stationary Hextechs on the board. Right-clicking on the symbols above each Hextech will reveal the Hextech Augments.

Changes were applied to the Tome of Traits, preventing players from manipulating a tailored trait Emblem.

  • No tailored Emblems: Changed from zero to four to zero to five active traits
  • One tailored Emblem: Changed from five to six to five to seven active traits
  • Two tailored Emblems: Changed form seven to eight to eight to nine active traits
  • Three tailored Emblems: Changed from nine to 10 to 10 to 11 active traits
  • Four tailored Emblems: Changed from 11 or more to 12 or more active traits

Patch 12.5 in Neon Nights shifted the power levels of combat TFT Set 6.5 Hextech Augments while also shifting a number of Augments to different tiers and implementing specific Augments that can’t get offered at certain stages of the game.

General changes were applied to Hextech Augments via the 12.6 TFT patch, from a time reduction to choosing an Augment to players no longer getting offered three economy Augments during the same round.

  • Getting three economy Augments in the same round has been changed and will no longer occur.
  • Time reduction for the first Augment reduced from 45 to 43 seconds.
  • Time reduction for second and third Augments reduced from 60 to 58 seconds.
  • Time reduction to choose Augments in Hyper Roll reduced from 35 to 33 seconds.

Here’s every possible TFT Set 6.5 Hextech Augment and its effect, divided up into the three possible tiers.
