Early Game

Type Gear Where to Get Notes
Upper +9/11 19428.png Illusion Morpheus's Hood [1] (19428) Illusion of Labyrinth Gives solid MATK. You can enchant it with 2x 29001.png Rune of Intellect Lv2 (29001) if you're aiming for a +11
Middle 410091.png Cor Core Booster (410091) or 410092.png Cor Core Booster [1] (410092) Rudus Floor 4 Pairs really well with CD in Mouth. Slotted if you want to put in a card but unslotted is fine as is
Lower 420003.png CD in Mouth (420003) Rudus Floor 4 Easy obtainable Lower headgear and gives good MATK + autocast Soul Strike
Armor +9 450105.png Grace Stalker Suit [1] (450105) Grace Gears The Grace Set combo for Abyss Chaser works really well at helping you amplify your early game damage (Meteor Storm autocast)
Weapon +11 510034.png Illusion Ancient Dagger [2] (510034) Illusion of Twins Probably the only Illusion dagger that supports autocast builds in the very early game
Shield +11 460017.png Illusion Guard [1] (460017) Illusion of Twins Gives you ASPD if equipped with 510034.png Illusion Ancient Dagger [2] (510034) . Enchant with 2x 29001.png Rune of Intellect Lv2 (29001) . This shield should carry you all the way to late-game/end-game

Shoes +9 470021.png Grace Magic Boots [1] (470021) Grace Gears Activates the Grace Set Combo

Mid Game

Type Gear Where to Get Notes
Upper +9C 400111.png Vesper Headgear [1] (400111) Equipment Crafting This is basically your end game headgear but you can use it as a mid-game headgear as well when you grade it up to +9C due to the bonuses it gives
Middle 410091.png Cor Core Booster (410091) /410092.png Cor Core Booster [1] (410092) or

410016.png Battle Processor (410016) /410017.png Battle Processor [1] (410017)

Rudus Floor 4 Pairs really well with CD in Mouth. Slotted if you want to put in a card but unslotted is fine as is

Battle Processor pairs really well with your Convertible Magic Wing

Lower 420003.png CD in Mouth (420003) Rudus Floor 4 Easy obtainable Lower headgear and gives good MATK + autocast Soul Strike
Armor +9/11 450207.png Snow Flower Robe [1] (450207) or

Gray Wolf Enchants: 310532.png Wolf Orb (Shadow Spell) (310532) , 310510.png Wolf Orb (Mage) Lv.3 (310510) , 310507.png Wolf Orb (Mage) Lv.2 (310507)

Weapon +9 510061.png Glacier Rogue Knife (510061) or

+11B 510040.png Magic Sword-LT [2] (510040)

Glacier Rouge Knife Enchants: 311288.png Glacier Flower Spell (Abyss Square) (311288) , 311349.png Glacier Flower Spell (Magical - Race) (311349) , 311353.png Glacier Flower Spell (Magical - Element) (311353) , 311343.png Glacier Flower Spell (MATK) (311343)

"Why Magic Sword-LT?" - It gives you a really well rounded stats that Abyss Chaser really wants + you have access to autocasting Psychic Wave which is a good bonus damage increase

Shield +11 460017.png Illusion Guard [1] (460017) Illusion of Twins Enchant with 2x 29001.png Rune of Intellect Lv2 (29001)
Garment +11 480125.png Convertible Magical Wing [1] (480125) Convertible Wings Really good mid-game option that pairs really well with Battle Processor for more MATK and Magical Damage against every Element

Accessory

(Right)

490064.png Brilliant Light Sapphire Ring [1] (490064) Brilliant Light Accessories Look for the following Enchants: 310254.png Destructive Evil Lv3 (310254) , 310224.png Happiness Lv3 (310224)

(I'm not gonna suggest to try and find more than lvl 3 because this is basically a midgame accessory and we don't want you spending your hard earned zeny on something you will replace later on, however, if you do get more than Lvl 3, just keep it)

Late/End Game

Type Gear Where to Get Notes
Upper +12A 19436.png Vesper Headgear [1] (19436) Equipment Crafting Sadly, we can't use Time Dimension Rune Crown because we're magic but Vesper is the best we can do. Can go +14 based on preference
Middle 410233.png Gambler's Seal [1] (410233) Alice Twisted Madness Really good flexible middle slot; Enchants to aim for: 9-10% increases all property magical damage, 9-10 S.MATK, 9-10% MATK
Lower 420213.png Ace of Spades in Mouth (Magical) (420213) Alice Twisted Madness Pretty straightforward combo with Gambler's Seal, Ideal enchants are +5 Int/Vit + +7 S.MATK/+7% Increases all property magical damage
Armor +12A 450280.png Soul Purification Rune Robe [1] (450280) or

+12A 450173.png Nebula Robe of Spell [1] (450173)

Varmundt's Biosphere Depth(Soul Purification Rune Robe)

Constellation Tower (Nebula Robe of Spell)

Soul Purification Rune Robe Enchants: 312374.png Soul Purification Rune 10Lv (312374) , 312364.png Purification Rune 5Lv (312364) , 312359.png Soul Rune 5Lv (312359)

Nebula Robe of Spell Enchants: 310688.png Star Cluster of Spell Lv.3 (310688) , 310738.png Nebula of Spell Lv.3 (310738) , 4714.png INT+5 (4714)

Why SPRR: Hands down the best damage and defensive armor with the current patch

Why Nebula Robe of Spell: You're future-proofing for the upcoming HOL update because it becomes BIS by then

Weapon +12A 510077.png Flush Jewel Detector Mk47 [2] (510077) or

+12A 510075.png Dim Glacier Rogue Knife [1] (510075)

Einbech Weapons (Flush Jewel Detector Mk47)

Issgard Equipment (Dim Glacier)

Flush Jewel Detector Mk47 Enchants: 311393.png Expert Magician Lv5 (311393) , 311394.png After Attack Delay Lv5 (311394)

Dim Glacier Rogue Knife Enchants: 311458.png Glacier Flower Spell (Magical Grade) Lv5 (311458) , 311288.png Glacier Flower Spell (Abyss Square) (311288) , 311288.png Glacier Flower Spell (Abyss Square) (311288)

Why Flush over Dim Glacier: Gives overall higher damage, extra Abyss Square 60% Damage is not to be sneezed at since it's our main damage source

Why Dim Glacier over Flush: Well, because you're a cheapo, basically or you wanted the bonus +1SPL/CON and +3S.MAtk at +14/+15

Shield +12A 460020.png Mad Bunny-LT [1] (460020) Alice Twisted Madness Enchants: 310856.png Attack Speed Lv.3 (310856) /310872.png Magical Lv.3 (310872) /310875.png HP Lv.3 (310875)

Very well rounded shield which gives us all of the stats we want as AC.

"But why these enchants" you ask? AC doesn't really use VCT as much unless you like hard casting like me, but then again, you just get it from other sources. We have no use for ACD, our main damage is a 3 second cooldown when casted. no amount of ACD is going to save us from that

Garment +12A 480233.png Death Rune Manteau [1] (480233) Varmundt's Biosphere 311876.png Varmundt's Crystal(Glade) Lv5 (311876) , 310925.png Spell of Varmundt Lv3 (310925) , 4714.png INT+5 (4714)

Note: 2nd slot enchants of Death Rune Manteau is pure preference. I like this the most so I suggested it

Shoes +12A 470204.png Moan of Corruption [1] (470204) Equipment Crafting Best Magic-based Boots in the game, hands down. If you're not using this, it's probably because you're using drop rate boots. If not, just put the fries in the bag, lil bro
Accessory

(Right)

490304.png Temple Rune Ring [1] (490304) or

490136.png Stellar Spell Seal [1] (490136)

Varmundt's Biosphere (Temple Rune Ring)

Constellation Tower (Stellar Spell Seal)

Temple Rune Ring Enchants: 311943.png Brilliant Biosphere Gem (Boss Type) (311943) or 311935.png Brilliant Biosphere Gem (Vibra-rupt) (311935) , 311958.png Intelligence of Varmundt Lv5 (311958) , 311998.png Fragment of Varmundt (SPL) Lv5 (311998)

Stellar Spell Seal Enchants: 310711.png Star of Spell Lv.5 (310711) , 310711.png Star of Spell Lv.5 (310711)

Why TRR? D A M A G E

Why Stellar Spell Seal? Future proofing as usual or you like the VCT like me because you like to cast Abyss Square from time to time

Note: 2nd slot enchants of TRR is pure preference. I like these the most so I suggested them
