Gear are the items you can equip to your hero to improve stats. These are armour and weapon parts.
Gear can be earned by the following:
- Completing MP matches and levelling up your character
- Using steel either earned by playing or bought on the store using money to perform scavenges.
Gear you do not use can then be dismantled to earn scrap. Gear equipped can then be upgraded using both scrap and steel. This is all done in the Heroes menu.
Gear will need to be upgraded six levels for common gear. It DOES NOT have to be legendary, and you only have to upgrade one piece of gear to max to earn this.
