====== Gear Progression ======

Gear on FanaticMU comes in six tiers. Every tier from T2 up drops
**+13, full option, excellent** - the tiers differ in raw stats and,
critically, in **socket count**. Higher tier = more sockets = more
power once you fill them (see [[progression:sockets|Sockets]]).

^ Tier ^ Source ^ Sockets ^
| T1 | Given at character creation - full +15 FO kit. Wings: **Wing 1 +15 FO** for DW/DK/FE/SU, **clean Wing 2** for MG/DL/RF | - |
| T2 | **Medusa** - invades the Swamp of Calmness several times a day | 1 |
| T3 | **Kundun** - invades Devias daily | 2 |
| T4 | **Selupan** - Raklion | 3 |
| T5 | **Erohim** - Land of Trials | 4 |
| T6 | **Azerite** - drops only from [[events:uber-kundun|Uber Kundun]] | 5 |

Each boss drops the armour sets //and// the weapons of its tier -
one weapon per class:

^ Class ^ T2 ^ T3 ^ T4 ^ T5 ^ T6 (Azerite) ^
| DK | Bone Blade | Knight Blade | Sword Breaker | Flameberge | Azerite Edge |
| DW | Staff of Destruction | Staff of Kundun | Inberial Staff | Grand Viper Staff | Azerite Staff |
| Elf | Celestial Bow | Great Reign Crossbow | Arrow Viper Bow | Sylph Wind Bow | Azerite Crossbow |
| MG | Sword Dancer | Dark Reign Blade | Explosion Blade | Thunder Blade | Azerite Blade |
| DL | Shining Scepter | Great Lord Scepter | Absolute Scepter | Soleil Scepter | Azerite Scepter |
| SU | Demonic Stick | Storm Blitz Stick | Raven Stick | Eternal Wing Staff | Azerite Stick |
| SU off-hand | Book of Samut (1 soc) | Book of Neil (2 soc) | Book of Neil (3 soc) | Book of Lagle (4 soc) | Book of Lagle (5 soc) |
| RF | Holly Storm Claws | Piercing Glove | Phoenix Soul Star | Phoenix Soul Star (4 soc) | Azerite Gauntlet |

===== Between T5 and T6 =====

  * **Divine Archangel weapons** are a rare prize from the highest Blood Castles - stronger than any T5 weapon, just under Azerite. Every class except the Rage Fighter - no Archangel glove exists. The RF bridge is his own: **Phoenix Soul Star with a 4th socket**, from the T5 boss.
  * **Accessories**: excellent rings and pendants drop from the **Red Dragon invasion** (Lorencia, Devias or Noria - it picks a map at random). This is the only place they drop.
  * **Ancient sets**: the **White Wizard** drops ancient items from all fourteen standing sets - rings and pendants included.

===== The direction =====

Farm the invasion circuit for your tier set, fill its sockets, craft
[[progression:wings|Wing 3]], then bring four friends to
[[events:uber-kundun|Uber Kundun]]. T6 with five filled sockets and
Wing 4 is the endgame.
