Editing Armour and Shields (section)

= Shielding, Agility Gear, and Jewelry Configurations =
To optimize combat effectiveness, players must match their gear setups to the offensive and defensive profiles of their targets. Standard shields and physical armor sets provide strong physical defense but require meeting active Defence thresholds to equip.

== Evasion Armor ==
Evasion armor pieces bypass physical mitigation in favor of direct agility multipliers and elemental resistances, requiring active Evasion levels to equip:
