Gear

Gear are equippable items in Injustice: Gods Among Us Mobile. They can be added to your characters to increase attributes such as damage, power generation, and maximum health. In addition, they may have some interesting effects such as disabling specials, power drain, or a chance to stun. Gears come in four rarities from Common to Epic. In Multiplayer, Gear is one of the rewards each season dependent on your ranking. Gear can also be bought from the store at 25,000 credits, giving one random gear each (up to Rare).

Gear can have a rarity value of one (common) to five (legendary) stars. Once evolved, the piece of gear move up a tier and one star is added. Gear can only be evolved once.

Terminology
There is a good deal of confusion regarding this system, as, for example, 3-star gear that is evolved (e.g. the original character-specific gear pieces) would have 4 stars, same as an unevolved gear earned from Online Battle season rewards. Players seems split on whether they should refer to a piece of gear by their evolved or unevolved form. Bizarrely, it appears that it is more popular to refer to 3/4 star gear as 3-star, while 4/5 star gear as 5-star. The slash (/) may be used, but could also be confused as referring to two groups of gears in an "or" relationship.

For the purpose of this wiki, the evolved version will be used to refer to gear. Gear/5 Star|Legendary Gear/4 Star|Epic Gear/3 Star|Rare Gear/2 Star|Uncommon
