Upgrading from Inquisitor equipment to Greatness gear in Warspear Online is necessary once your character enters competitive Arena brackets. While Inquisitor sets serve as an accessible entry point for early PvP, their lower stat caps leave players exposed to heavy burst damage from refined opponents. Transitioning to Greatness gear raises your Resilience, Ferocity, and baseline defenses to survive opening crowd-control chains and trade effectively in high-tier matches.
Stat Differences Between Inquisitor and Greatness
Inquisitor gear provides basic Resilience to mitigate player damage, but its modest defensive ratings fall short against highly refined weapons and high Critical Hit multipliers. High-damage classes such as Rogues, Seekers, and Mages can overwhelm Inquisitor defenses before defensive skills or healing can counter them. Greatness equipment increases your base health, physical and magical armor, and PvP stat scaling.
| Equipment Metric | Inquisitor Set | Greatness Set | Tactical Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Resilience Rating | Baseline percentage | Maximum mitigation cap | Reduces incoming critical strike chance and player burst damage |
| Ferocity Rating | Moderate offensive bonus | Top-tier offensive scaling | Multiplies direct damage against opposing player Resilience |
| Base Defenses | Standard mid-tier armor and HP | High physical and magical defense | Prevents immediate defeat inside opening stuns |
| Acquisition Currency | Standard Arena Points | Imperials of Greatness and Arena Points | Requires dedicated daily tournament placement or seasonal rewards |
| Refinement Target | Stop at +6 or +7 | Target +9 or +10 | Delivers maximum stat scaling per enhancement level |
Because incoming damage spikes sharply when facing opponents stacking Ferocity, relying on Inquisitor armor past mid-tier matches creates a severe stat deficit. Greatness gear provides the durability required to survive opening burst rotations.
Farming Imperials of Greatness
Standard Inquisitor pieces require only regular Arena Points accumulated through standard matches. Greatness gear requires both Arena Points and Imperials of Greatness, which are earned through competitive tournament participation.
To collect Imperials efficiently:
- Focus on a Single Tournament Mode: Rather than dividing entries across multiple Arena queues, concentrate matches in one category (such as 2v2 Arena or Temple of Seals) to secure higher bracket placement.
- Queue During Active Windows: Coordinate with a consistent partner or group during active daily tournament hours to rack up daily wins required for top ranking rewards.
- Target Seasonal Cutoffs: Ensure regular participation toward the end of tournament cycles to claim bulk Imperial rewards awarded at season close.
Recommended Piece Upgrade Order
Avoid purchasing secondary accessories or gloves early in the transition. Small items grant minor defensive increases while leaving your core stats vulnerable. Prioritize heavy base-stat pieces—the weapon, chest, and legs—to maximize survivability while farming remaining costs.
- Main Hand Weapon: Secures high Ferocity and base attack value, ensuring your attacks deal competitive damage against enemy Resilience.
- Body Armor (Cuirass or Robe): Provides the largest single-piece boost to base armor and Resilience to withstand burst openings.
- Pants (Greaves or Breeches): Delivers the second-largest pool of health, armor, and defensive ratings.
- Helmet and Boots: Fills out remaining defensive thresholds and essential secondary attributes such as movement speed.
- Gloves and Accessories: Completes the set to finalize critical strike modifiers and supplementary offensive bonuses.
Enchantment and Rune Sockets
Investing expensive enhancement materials into Inquisitor gear yields poor long-term value. Limit Inquisitor refinements to +6 or +7, saving Spheres of Enhancement, Signets, and high-value socketing materials for Greatness pieces.
- Armor Sockets: Place Runes of Resilience in every eligible armor piece to maximize PvP damage reduction. Fit secondary defense sockets with Health, Physical Defense, or Magic Defense runes according to your class requirements.
- Weapons and Accessories: Slot Crystals of Ferocity into rings and amulets to overcome enemy Resilience. Use weapon sockets for Piercing, Critical Damage, or Attack Strength to scale your damage output.

I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
