|{{Item List2|id=450128|item=Automatic Armor B-type|slots=1}}
|Armor
|[[Sage's Legacy]]
|Refine this to +11 and choose between {{Item List |id=1000134|item=Automatic Module (Delay after skill)}}, {{Item List |id=1000123|item=Automatic Module (Magic)}} and most especially {{Item List |id=1000168|item=Automatic Module (Shadow Spell)}}.

|Armor
|[[Nightmare Toy Factory]]
|[[Varmundt's Biosphere Depth]]
|This old, bloody dress is one of the best armors for this build. It is highly recommended to refine this to +12 and equip the whole set to reap its full benefits.
|One of the best armors for this build. Grants copious amounts of MATK and magical damage, especially at higher grades and higher refines.

|{{Item List |id=550082|item=Freedom Stick-LT|slots=2}}
|Rod
|[[Ancient Hero]]
|The current final form of the Freedom Stick is this Level 5 beast. Enables use of Level 5 {{Skill Info|class=Soul Linker|id=2449|skill=Psychic Wave}} at +7 and while it is focused on boosting Earth and Neutral element damage, pairing it with the Hero Boots-LT plus the added S.MATK at higher refines and grades makes it really good even for spells that aren't Earth and Neutral. A good upgrade over the Illusion Thorn Staff of Darkness at high refines and good enchants. Aim for at least a +11 Grade C and best paired with {{Item List2|id=470094 |item=Hero Boots-LT|slots=1}}
|-
|{{Item List |id=550062|item=Poenitentia Ferrum|slots=2}}
|Rod
|[[Tomb of Remorse]]
|If {{Skill List |id=5457 |skill=Jack Frost Nova|simple=yes}} and {{Skill List |id=5455 |skill=Meteor Storm Buster|simple=yes}} are your main skills, then this rod is very good at boosting their damage, especially at higher refines and grades.

|Best-in-slot weapon despite having just 1 slot. It can have three very powerful enchants of your choosing, which means no RNG nonsense. It can be easily graded as well, because it doesn't need an exorbitant amount of zeny and expensive {{#item:6635}} to refine.

|An upgrade of the Cursed Knight's Shield, this purely fantastic shield provides many bonuses, especially at higher refines. The enchants are better too. Try to get the enchant that ignores the MDEF of Boss Monsters.
|One of, if not the best shields for this build. Upgrade it to at least Grade D for the damage reduction, but it is highly recommended to max it out at Grade A and refine it to +12 to take advantage of the {{#item:300379}}.

|A good alternative to the Cursed Knight's Shield and Purified Knight's Shield, it reduces Variable Casting Time and Aftercast Delay and can be enchanted.

|Increases Magical Damage and provides some MDEF. Can be enchanted. Try getting enchants that ignore the MDEF of Normal or Boss monsters, preferably Boss monsters.

|-
|{{Item List2 |id=24616 |item=Super Magic Shadow Shield |simple=yes}}
|Shadow Gear
|[[Faceworm's Nest]]
|The centerpiece of the Super Magic Shadow Set and the next upgrade to the Super Novice Shadow Shield. Combining the {{Item List2 |id=24282 |item=Super Novice Shadow Gauntlet |simple=yes}} (with level 10 {{Skill Info|class=Soul Linker|id=9|skill=Increase SP Recovery}} of course) and this shield results in A LOT of MDEF pierce. 40% Racial MDEF pierce from this, 30% Normal MDEF pierce from the Gauntlet if {{Skill Info|class=Soul Linker|id=9|skill=Increase SP Recovery}} is level 10, and an extra 3% Normal MDEF pierce per refine rate of the Gauntlet. To get Boss MDEF pierce though, you need to enchant a {{Item List |id=28946 |item=Purified Knight's Shield |slots=1 |simple=yes}} with the "Ignore MDEF of Boss Monsters" enchant.
'''Unlike what the description says, it DOES NOT need the Super Magic Shadow Cape and Boots below to get the elemental damage bonuses, just the required refine level. Additionally, while the description in-game says that it ignores Physical Defense, it actually ignores Magic Defense. Finally, the MDEF pierce comes from this shield, the Super Novice Shadow Gauntlet and their refine levels, <u>EXCLUDING</u> the other two items below. Type @battlestats or @bs to confirm.'''
