Gear Options

Use the highest item level gear available to you while leveling. Upgrade gear whenever possible after level 50 by purchasing items with tomestones. You can exchange Allagan Tomestone of Poetics for gear in Idyllshire at level 60, Rhalgr's Reach at level 70, in Eulmore at level 80 and in both Radz-At-Hahn or Old Sharlayan at level 90.

  • Berserk Icon Berserk should be used on your single-target combo GCDs.

Mitigation and Healing Utility
