Overview
Hero Equipment is a tier of high-quality gear in Forsaken World — purple-tier armor and accessories obtained through endgame instances, world bosses, and arena rewards. Hero gear bridges the gap between mid-game blue gear and endgame BiS pieces, providing significant stat increases for players approaching cap.
This article catalogs the items, acquisition methods, and progression paths.
Hero equipment is a type of character gear commonly referred to as "Hoss gear" by players, as it is exchanged with NPCs located in Hossinger. This gear is considered a damage set, unlike Arena gear which is defensive, and is also PvE-oriented due to its enhanced attack attributes, mastery, critical chance, critical damage, and additional golden PvE power attributes.
General Information
Hero equipment comes in several set levels. All parts can be purchased from NPC Cassandra Weir in the Hall of Fame in Hossinger.
| Set Level | Required Character Level |
|---|---|
| Novice Stage | 30+ |
| Level 1 | 60+ |
| Level 2 | 75+ |
| Level 3 | 85+ |
| Level 4 | 88+ |
Special Transfer (Upgrade)
In the sixth tab, items for upgrading the set level of equipment are available. All hero equipment sets can transfer enhancements and gems from lower-level sets to higher-level ones, but upgrades must be done sequentially without skipping levels (e.g., from 30 to 60, 60 to 75, etc.). Optionally, you can retain the appraisal and tempering of your low-level gear during the upgrade. Developed potential does not transfer.
| Item | Cost | Required for Upgrade |
|---|---|---|
| War God Emblem | 10 War God Points | |
| War God Order | 40 War God Points | |
| Hero Emblem | 40 Hero Glory Points | |
| Hero Order | 100 Hero Glory Points |
You can upgrade hero equipment using the "Enhance Equipment" function at any blacksmith in Hossinger. Different types of equipment require different amounts of Emblems or Orders of the corresponding level. For equipment above level 75, Star Diamonds are also needed.

FAQ
Q: Where do Hero items drop? A: Endgame instances (Hand of Storms, Challenge Expedition, Tower of Eternity), Epic-tier world bosses, and high-rating arena reward bundles. Some Hero pieces are also crafted by maxed-tier crafters.
Q: Hero Equipment vs raid gear? A: Hero gear is one tier below endgame raid gear (Hand of Storms BiS). Hero gear is the stepping-stone — wear it while progressing into raid content.
Q: Is Hero gear worth investing refinement into? A: If you'll wear it for 1+ months yes. If raid gear is imminent, refine partially (+6 to unlock 2 sockets) and save Star Shards for the upgrade.
