Equipment

As your player characters gather experience, you'll want to equip armor and weapons that allow them to better survive in more hostile environments and against more formidable adversaries.

The Equipment Category is grouped by where each particular item is worn or equipped, also referred to as a "slot."

There are currently twenty (20) "slots" (positions) for equipment. They are broken down in the following categories: lights, rings (2), neck (2), body, head, face, ears, leg, feet, hands, arms, shields, about, waist, wrist (2), weapon, and holdable.

1. LIGHTS

Lights provide room illumination. Some mobiles can't see in the dark, and therefore will not see you if you don't carry a light source. For instance, creatures in the Abyss and on the Greza Ship (in Skara Brae) can't see in the dark. If your group members remove their lights, the aggressive mobiles in those zones will not attack your tank.

Lights may also provide a wide range of statistic benefits, from leveling attribute bonuses (such as intelligence , wisdom and constitution) to hitroll and damage bonuses. Rare lights provide additional benefits, like hit point and mana regeneration bonuses.
