Gear

Bard wears Chain armor. The gear-by-class guide lists exactly what stats to chase and which named mobs and zones drop the pieces you want.

Role weightings drive the coverage bars and the trio scores, the same data the Build Forge uses. EverQuest Legends is new and soloable by design, so treat specifics as a starting point and confirm in-game. The level cap is 50.
