STAYING BASE GEAR SCORE

[COLEMAN5150]

Can't fully remember but can you stay at base gear score the whole game i think if you pick up armour later on it would already be at your lvl but ive never tried it a 1 gear score so im not sure if its your gear score or the world your in

there will be innate gear checks, e.g. bosses will have a set difficulty (virtually scaled to certain gear levels), regardless of your actual gear score

If you do a gear score 1 run, some items you get will have a set gear score when you find them, like the Void armor. It doesn't matter unless you are planning to use said items, because their gear score will be lower than next areas' minimums anyway. If that's the case I know of one person that edited his save to bring everything down to 1. I don't know how, but it is possible.

You can do entire adventure mode with gear score 0/1 . You will notice the difference in boss sustain tho in campaign .
If you go into a standard dungeon on Rhom for example , you will need 1 or 2 body hits for the skeleton warriors. If you go into the world boss dungeon (claviger or harrow) you will immidiatly see the difference in your dmg (apporx 4-5 body hits with hunting rifle on the skeleton warriors).

You can press C than R for the advance stats. On the bottom left you can see your Damage and Defense vs. the current Zone.

I would recommend to go Earth , Rhom , Corsus,Yaesha , Ward 17 like that:
+4 , +7 , +11 , +15, "

There are the perfect +ratios to go for all regions somewhere in this forum alrdy but these what worked pretty easy for me on normal and hard for starting fresh.

World Bosses have their fixed lvl (gear score also if u want to call it like that) . If you go +5 or above for example the first World Boss on earth will always lvl up etc.. Stay around the -+0 mark vs the zone (white icon).

if you consider this as a trick to keep the game easy, just play on normal mode ...

i kinda dont see the use in palying on nightmare and tricking the game into easy that way

unless this makes you feel better ofc
