Gear and Party Synergy

Underkeep gear matters because the game’s official description calls out equipment with properties that can change party builds. The available public listing does not give a complete item database or best-in-slot ranking. Use the properties shown on each item in your game and match them to the hero’s job.

Match gear to the character

Begin with the role you chose for each of the four adventurers. A character who needs to stay in danger may benefit from defensive bonuses, while another may need equipment that supports its attacks or spells. Compare the full item description instead of choosing only by a headline value. A bonus is useful when it strengthens the party’s plan or covers a weakness.

Review gear as the party changes

A new item can affect more than one hero. Recheck the group after a substantial upgrade, especially when a character gains a skill or changes how it acts in battle. The combat system rewards planning and resource management, so gear that helps a character use its role consistently may be more useful than a narrow damage increase.

Keep a record of discoveries

Use the automap’s custom marks to record places that remain unexplored or need a return visit. When you find an item, note where it came from and which character benefits. Only build a named gear list from items observed in the current version. This keeps the page useful without importing another game’s equipment levels, boss drops, or set names.

A simple gear review can prevent wasted upgrades. First identify the job each hero fills, then compare the available equipment by its listed properties and decide which character benefits most. Consider the whole four-hero group instead of optimizing one character in isolation. The developer describes equipment as capable of changing how a character plays, which makes item effects worth reading carefully. Exact item names, stats, and locations should be recorded from the current game and checked before publishing a catalog.
