Well guys, it's finally here-- Rank IX gear, the absolute apex of destructive capability, has been added to the game!

But like all incredibly powerful things, achieving them will not be easy. Those who succeed in this task will be rewarded with awesome stats, unique status effect procs, and remarkable set bonuses.

How/Where to Get It

To obtain this gear, you'll need to make a trip to the Commander-in-Chief (521, 626) in the South District of Archosaur. You'll need 300,000 Reputation, 3 Medals of Glory, and 32 General Summer's Tokens. Once you've fulfilled these requirements, speak with the Commander in Chief, and you'll be able to turn in the medals and tokens for the Rank IX ring - Ring of Trauma (note: Medals and Tokens will be consumed in the trade).

Ring of Trauma

The Ring of Trauma is the first piece of the Rank IX Gear Set, and must be obtained before all other pieces can be accessed. Once it is obtained, the Commander In Chief will then display the other 6 pieces of the set-- Wrists, Belt, Chest, Legs, Feet, and Weapon. Each piece will cost a certain number of Medals of Glory and General Summer's Tokens.

And now, without further ado, each class' set for Rank IX!
