	Please note that most of this gear is HQ well it is better NQ will work too.
			Below is a list of recommended gear per slot. <!-- Rare/Ex gear is in ''italics''. Gear marked with "Haste", "WS", "Ninjutsu", or "Enmity" should generally be macroed-in as necessary. Gear marked "TP/WS" can be used to gain TP and to WS. Gear with *** is an item that needs a that little bit more time or money to achieve but is well worth it.-->
