This guide will equip you with everything you need to know, from the basics of crafting to advanced upgrade strategies, whether you're a seasoned commander or just starting your journey.

What Is Chief Gear?

Chief Gear comprises six pieces of equipment, each designed to enhance the Attack and Defense of a specific troop type:

• Coat and Pants: Boost Infantry Attack and Defense, strengthening your frontline.
• Belt and Weapon (Shortstaff): Enhance Marksman Attack and Defense, increasing their damage and survivability.
• Cap and Watch: Improve Lancer Attack and Defense, bolstering their versatile mid-line role.

These buffs apply to all your marches, regardless of the heroes deployed. Crucially, equipping three or six pieces of the *same gear quality* unlocks powerful set bonuses: three pieces increase overall troop Defense, while six pieces boost overall troop Attack. These bonuses scale with gear tier, emphasizing the importance of maintaining consistent quality across your equipment.

Tips for Maximizing Chief Gear

Here's how to optimize your Chief Gear for maximum battlefield dominance:

• Craft all six pieces immediately upon unlocking at Furnace Level 22. Even basic gear provides valuable buffs to all troop types.
• Prioritize set bonuses. The Defense boost from three matching pieces and the Attack boost from six are crucial for overall army strength. Don't neglect these for focusing on a single troop type.
• Stockpile materials. Strategically gather Hardened Alloy and Polishing Solution from events and shops. Design plans are especially valuable for upgrading beyond Blue-quality gear.
• Utilize the Enhancement Material Exchange. Trade excess materials for those you need to streamline upgrades and prevent bottlenecks.
• Time upgrades with in-game events. Many events reward points for gear upgrades, allowing you to maximize your rewards.

Chief Gear is a vital asset in *Whiteout Survival*, offering significant battlefield advantages. By crafting all six pieces, strategically upgrading them, and focusing on balanced progression, you'll unleash your troops' full potential and conquer your enemies.
