Tower Of Fantasy: What does CS mean?

What is CS in Tower Of Fantasy, and why it is important? You may have noticed in your first session or two playing Tower Of Fantasy that you have a player level which increases over time. However, what isn't immediately obvious is that there's another stat which is often an even better indicator of how far you are into Hotta's open-world RPG, and how ready you are to face the combat trials ahead.

Read on to find out what CS means in Tower Of Fantasy, how it works, and why it is such an important stat to bear in mind as you play through the game.

What is CS in Tower Of Fantasy?

In Tower Of Fantasy, CS stands for Combat Strength, which is a score that indicates your overall power level. You might also see players online refer to it as GS, which stands for Gear Score. They are the same thing. Players just call it Gear Score sometimes because that's a more familiar name for it from other games.

You may have noticed a number with "CS" next to it in several menu screens in Tower Of Fantasy, such as your Character and Backpack screen, or next to a particular weapon. This is because each piece of gear that you can equip has its own CS rating, which is an indicator of how powerful that piece of gear is compared to other gear in the game. Your character also has their own CS rating, which is an aggregate score of all the CS ratings of the gear and weaponry you have equipped.

Put simply, your character's CS indicates your character's overall power. You can use this rating to figure out whether you are strong enough to take on a certain boss, area, or dungeon in Tower Of Fantasy. Some content in the game will provide you with a recommended CS rating that you should try to meet before proceeding - or else you might find yourself outmatched in combat strength by your adversaries in that area.
