This guide explains how to gear up and build your character in '''Ragnamex''', covering equipment prefixes, grades, gems, enchantments, crafting, item tiers, refinement, and tips for new players.

__TOC__

== 1. Equipment Prefixes ==

Every piece of equipment has a '''prefix''' that indicates its origin and the grades available for it.

{| class="wikitable sortable"
! Prefix !! Source !! Available Grades
|-
| '''Forsaken''' || Trash || None
|-
| '''Vendor''' || NPC Shop || None
|-
| '''Adventurer''' || World Quest || D, C, B, A

|}

== 2. Grades ==

Grades determine how powerful an item's stats and bonuses are. Items with no grade have no stats or special effects.

{| class="wikitable"
! Grade !! Description
|-
| '''None''' || No grade. Item has no stats or bonuses.
|-
| '''D''' || Lowest grade. Minimal stats and bonuses.
|-
| '''C''' || Low-mid grade. Moderate stats and bonuses.
|-
| '''B''' || Mid-high grade. Good stats and bonuses.
|-
| '''A''' || Highest grade. Maximum stats and bonuses available for the prefix.
|}

== 3. Gems & Enchantments ==

=== 3.1 Gems ===

* Gems improve the '''secondary stats''' of equipment.
* Gems are obtained through the '''Jewelry''' profession.

=== 3.2 Enchantments ===

* Enchantments add additional effects to items — from basic stats to unique properties such as area attacks, life steal, movement speed, ASPD, and more.
* Enchantments are created by the '''Enchanting''' profession.
* To craft enchantments, you must destroy equipment to obtain '''Dusts'''. The quality of the Dust depends on the grade of the destroyed item.

== 4. Equipment Types & Crafting ==

Different equipment types are usable by different classes and are crafted by different professions.

=== 4.1 Weapons ===

Almost all weapons are crafted by the '''Blacksmith''', with the following exceptions:
* '''Books''' → crafted by the Inscription profession.
* '''Staves''' → crafted by the Enchanting profession.

=== 4.2 Armor & Accessories ===

{| class="wikitable"
! Equipment Type !! Usable By !! Crafting Profession
|-
| '''Cloth Armor''' || All classes || Tailoring
|-
| '''Leather Armor''' || All classes except Wizard and Priest || Leatherworking
|-
| '''Plate / Metal Armor''' || Crusader and Knight class only || Blacksmithing
|-
| '''Garments''' || All classes || Tailoring
|-
| '''Rings & Necklaces''' || All classes || Jewelry
|-
| '''Middle Gears''' || All classes || Engineering
|-
| '''Shields''' || Crusader and Knight class only || Blacksmithing
|-
| '''Magic Orbs''' || Magic classes only. Increases magic damage. || Enchanting
|-
| '''Grimoires''' || Magic classes only. Reduces cast time. || Inscription
|}

== 5. Item Level & Tier ==

=== 5.1 Item Level (iLv) ===

Items have an internal '''Item Level (iLv)''' that determines how strong they are, based on the monsters or zone they came from. For crafted or NPC-purchased items, the iLv is tied to the item's minimum equip level.

=== 5.2 Tier ===

Items have a '''Tier''' — the higher the tier, the higher the base stats. Tier is determined by the level of the source monster, zone, or content.

{| class="wikitable"
! Tier !! Monster Level Range
|-
| Tier I || Mob Lv < 15
|-
| Tier II || Mob Lv 15 – 26
|-
| Tier III || Mob Lv 27 – 38
|-
| Tier IV || Mob Lv 39 – 50
|-
| Tier V || Mob Lv 51 – 62
|-
| Tier VI || Mob Lv 63 – 72
|-
| Tier VII || Mob Lv 73 – 82
|-
| Tier VIII || Mob Lv 83 – 92
|-
| Tier IX || Mob Lv 93 – 102
|-
| Tier X || Mob Lv 103 – 112
|}

== 6. Refinement ==

* All equipment can be refined using '''Refinement Tickets'''.
* Refined equipment '''does not break'''.
* The more Refinement Tickets you collect, the faster you can upgrade your gear.

== 7. Tips for New Players ==

* Get geared quickly by completing '''leveling quests''' — they provide solid starter equipment.
* Run '''Dungeons''' whenever possible to obtain Champion-prefix gear.
* Use '''Professions''' to equip yourself without relying entirely on drops.
* '''Legendary gear''' can be crafted, but requires significant time investment in farming and Zeny.
* Sell equipment you do not need at the '''Auction House''' to earn Zeny.
* Destroy gear you no longer use with the '''Enchanting''' profession — the resulting Dusts can be used or sold to other players.
