Weapons and armor are your primary source of stats and skills. Each character has specific weapon types (e.g., Sorey: Staff, Mikleo: Staff, Rose: Daggers, Lailah: Paper Talismans, Edna: Umbrella, Dezel/Zaveid: Pendulum). Armor includes body armor, headgear, and accessories. Higher rarity equipment generally offers better base stats and more skill slots. Always aim to equip the strongest gear available, but also consider the skills attached to them. Remember that equipment can be fused to transfer skills, making even lower-tier items valuable for their unique skill properties. Regularly check merchants for new stock and explore thoroughly for hidden chests.
