Equipment & Gear System

Students can equip up to three pieces of gear, each providing different stat bonuses and sometimes unique effects. Gear slots unlock as students reach certain level milestones, significantly boosting their combat prowess.

• Gear Slots & Types:
  • Slot 1 (Weapon): Unlocked early (Level 1). Provides significant ATK and other offensive stats. This is often the most impactful gear slot for damage dealers.
  • Slot 2 (Headwear): Unlocked at a higher level (e.g., Level 15). Includes items like Hats, Hairpins, Masks. Often provides DEF, HP, Crit Rate, or Evasion.
  • Slot 3 (Accessory): Unlocked at the highest level (e.g., Level 35). Includes items like Watches, Badges, Necklaces. Provides specialized stats like Crit Damage, Healing Power, Evasion, or Crowd Control Resist.
• Gear Rarity & Tiers:
  • Rarity: Gear comes in different rarities (e.g., Normal, Rare, Super Rare, Unique). Higher rarity gear generally has better base stats and higher potential for upgrades.
  • Tiers: Gear also has tiers (T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7). Higher tiers provide significantly better stats. For example, a T4 Hat will provide much more HP and DEF than a T1 Hat.
  • Upgrading Gear: Gear can be upgraded using "Enhancement Stones" and Credits. Each upgrade level increases its stats. At certain upgrade milestones (+3, +5, +7), gear may gain additional sub-stats or unique effects.
• Optimal Gear Selection:
  • Match to Role: Always match gear to a student's primary role.
    • Damage Dealers: Prioritize gear that boosts ATK, Crit Rate, Crit Damage.
    • Tanks: Prioritize gear that boosts HP, DEF, Evasion.
    • Healers/Buffers: Prioritize gear that boosts Healing Power, HP, or specific utility stats.
  • Unique Gear: Some students have "Unique Gear" (often unlocked by reaching 5-Star rarity and maxing out their bond). This gear is specifically designed for that student and provides powerful stat boosts and often enhances one of their skills. Prioritize acquiring and upgrading Unique Gear for your main students.
  • Farming Gear: Gear materials are primarily farmed from "Equipment" missions and "Bounty" missions. Higher-tier gear materials are found in later stages and higher difficulties.

Actionable Advice: Focus on upgrading the gear of your main Strikers and Tanks first, as they are the most impactful on the battlefield. Don't spread your resources too thin; concentrate on a core team before expanding. Always aim for the highest tier of gear you can consistently farm for your key students.
