Define the role
A solo stealth build and a squad support build should not chase the same affixes.
Affixes turn gear from random loot into a build. The trick is knowing which stats support the job your class is trying to do.
Update with exact affix names, ranges, and best-in-slot priorities after launch.
A solo stealth build and a squad support build should not chase the same affixes.
Survival, stamina, recovery, or escape value can be better than raw damage in extraction context.
Bank gear that supports your class plan, even if it is not the highest theoretical value.
| Role | Priority direction | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Solo | Escape, stamina, burst window | Controls fight selection |
| Boss | Sustained damage, recovery, mitigation | Improves long fight safety |
| Support | Cooldown, healing, survival | Keeps team tools available |
| PvP burst | Damage window, mobility, reset | Punishes mistakes quickly |
Exact affix values are not final in this guide. Use the priority model now, then update the page with real names, ranges, and breakpoints after launch.
Keep gear that makes your current build safer, faster, or more consistent. In extraction games, a reliable stat can be worth more than a flashy number.
What affixes are best?
Before launch, prioritize affixes by role: survival for learning, cooldowns for support, burst for assassins, and sustained value for bosses.
Should I keep all rare gear?
No. Keep rare gear that matches your class plan or gives practical extraction value.
