At Level 150, you can start using {{#item:470021}}, which can be obtained after completing the [[17.1_Illusion| 17.1 Questline]] from the [[Grace_Set| Sentinel NPC]]. The boots are the easiest way to obtain some Fixed Cast Reduction, providing .5s at Refine Level 7. <br>

At Level 160, you will have access to [[Illusion_of_Luanda| Illusion of Luanda's Goibne Gear]] and [[Illusion_of_Twins| Illusion of Twins' Sprint Gear]]. Both sets are very useful and the full combos can provide a mix of tankiness, ACD reduction, and .7s FCT reduction. For FCT reduction, you can also use {{#item:1000857}} for .5s FCT reduction and {{#item:25170}} or {{#item:25067}} for .3s or .5s FCT reduction respectively.<br>

Of the two Illusion sets, I recommend the Illusion Sprint Set as the transition to Phase Two will be the smoothest. However, both are powerful, and you will also be using pieces of both sets.

Lastly, the Advanced Paradise Equipment does not provide a Middle or Lower Headgear, so getting middle and lower headgears will provide an easy upgrade.

{{#item:490052}} and {{#item:490053}} will still be useful to have while working on Phase 5 due to its race modifiers against dragon which will be very strong against Betelgeuse and Jabberwocky.

<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.

After completing Phase 5 for gear, you can work on Special Master Shadow Gear if you decide to go that route for shadow gear.
