<big><span style="color:#871b1b">Gaebolg and Yorscalp Gear</span></big><br> | |||
[[21_Age_of_Heroes#Equipment|Gaebolg and Yorscalp Gear]] are both powerful gears that will provide an increase in damage from Phase 4 (especially Yorscalp). However, due to the high cost of resources, high reputation costs, and the difficult mvps/instances needed to create and enchant these gears, I do not currently recommend them as an intermediate step between Phases 4 and 5. Instead, I recommend that you go directly to Phase 5. | |||

The Items from Alice Twisted Madness can provide S.Matk and Magic Damage with Element or provide a lot of VCT Reduction.

The choice between the {{#item:400535}}/{{#item:640054}} combo vs. {{#item:550089}} will depend on you. The {{#item:640054}} has stronger DPS due to the reduction in cooldown reduction and will be significantly stronger if you consider its enchants. However, {{#item:550089}} allows better survivability since it allows the use of a shield, and it provides other stats you may need such as ACD, ASPD, etc. | |||
