Tier Equipment Guide

Tier Items are crafted gear sets made by specific NPC crafters in different areas. They’re designed to be crafted as you level, so your gear stays balanced with the mobs you’ll be fighting. In Fantasy Online 2, tier weapons and armor are the best gear in the game, and you should start crafting them fairly early instead of waiting until late-game.

Why Tier Items Matter

Best gear in the game: Tier weapons and armor are the strongest gear available.
Designed for progression: Each tier is meant to match the difficulty of mobs at that stage of leveling.
Upgrades, not replacements: You usually don’t throw your old tier away, you use it to craft the next tier.

How Tier Crafting Works

Tier crafting is an upgrade path, you build items tier-by-tier instead of jumping straight to the end.

Most tier items require:

Tier and slot specific blueprints
The previous tier version of the same item (Tier 1 → Tier 2 → Tier 3, etc)
A crafting material, or a Starforged piece (depending on what you’re crafting)

Materials are usually things like gems or plates created from ore
Tier armor often uses a matching Starforged armor piece as part of the recipe

Exception:

Tier 2 Rings do not require Tier 1 rings, you can craft Tier 2 rings without upgrading from Tier 1.
Tier-based shoulder items start at Tier 3.

Starforged Shell Pieces

Crafting Tier Armor also requires Starforged Armor for specific items. Starforged pieces are made using tier-specific Starforged sets, and they’re almost like a “pre-tier” version of the real tier armor.

In general, Starforged Armor is crafted using:

Ores and/or gems
A matching armor mold (for the specific slot/type)

Molds are typically sold by shop-keepers
