Early game in **Blue Protocol Star Resonance** can be confusing, especially when it comes to gear. Not only do gear pieces provide important stats, but they also help improve your Ability Score, which is essential for accessing gated content like dungeons. Each class starts with default Level 10 equipment, but to progress toward endgame content, you’ll need higher-quality gear.
Luckily, Blue Protocol does not restrict the gear level you can equip, allowing you to build a strong character early on. Here’s everything you need to know about gearing in the early game and how to keep improving your Ability Score.

## Best Early-Game Gearing Strategy for Blue Protocol Star Resonance
The most effective early game method to strengthen your character is to run easy dungeons and purchase gear. If you want to level up quickly, your best bet is to save Alloy Shards and directly purchase Level 40 Epic gear from the Artisan Guild.
Dungeons are mainly worth farming in hard mode, as they have a chance to drop Legendary gear. However, to meet the required Ability Score to enter these dungeons, you’ll first need to obtain Epic gear.
### Ways to Improve Your Ability Score
1. Purchasing and equipping higher-level gear
2. Reforging/refining gear
3. Upgrading skills

### 1) Purchasing Higher-Level Gear
Purchasing gear may seem unusual, but it’s a valuable shortcut to jump-start your progression. I spent a lot of time wandering aimlessly before discovering the gear vendor!
To access the vendor, you need to complete Act 1 of the main campaign. The vendor only sells Level 40 items, which instantly boosts your Ability Score enough to enter the Easy mode Goblin Lair dungeon.
Each item costs 20 Alloy Shards, except weapons, which cost 40 shards. Here’s what to buy first:
– Weapon
– Feltcap
– Body Armor
– Boots
– Rings
Gauntlets and Earrings tend to drop commonly in the dungeon itself, so the gear above should be enough to meet the requirements for teaming up with other players.

### 2) Reforging/Refining Gear
The next step to improve your gear is reforging and refining. The vendor located to the left of the armor shop allows you to enhance your equipment.
Keep in mind you should only enhance Level 40 gear that has good stats for your class—look for a thumbs-up icon on the stat to confirm.
Reforging two or three times should be enough to unlock the hard-mode Goblin Lair dungeon, where you can farm:
– Legendary Weapons
– Gauntlets
– Earrings
Additionally, you receive a guaranteed first-time Legendary box, letting you choose between Gauntlets or Earrings.
**Tip:** Don’t over-upgrade Gauntlets and Earrings, as you’ll soon obtain Legendary versions of these items.
If you still can’t access the hard mode after reforging, the next section will help you get there.

### 3) Upgrading Skills
Lastly, improving your skills is crucial to reach the Ability Score required for farming powerful gear.
Skill upgrades are the second most important factor after gear in boosting your Ability Score during the early game. However:
– Only upgrade the skills you plan on using often to avoid running out of Luno quickly.
– Save some Advance Books to increase the tier of your most useful skills.

## Farming Gear in the Open World During Early Game
Another way to target farm gear is by defeating world bosses. You won’t be alone—many players usually hunt the same bosses.
Defeating world bosses can drop:
– Imagines
– Materials
– Legendary/Epic gear
However, this method can be more time-consuming for a few reasons:
– Bosses have very high health pools, making fights lengthy.
– Without proper gear or at a high enough level, bosses can one-shot your character.
– Drops are inconsistent and may take many attempts.
That said, boss hunting can still be a fun group activity. Players frequently revive each other to keep the fight going. Using a ranged character is also a safer option for tackling these bosses.
