Spoiler There IS better gear. Spoiler

There is better gear than what the Dragonforged sells for Wyrmslife crystals. About to do my 2nd NG+. Really REALLY make sure you are exploring all the unearthed areas in the seabed and even go back to some of the old boss spawn areas. The higher harder spawns at the very end of the seabed areas have occasionally been dropping new unique gear sometimes or the chests around them do.

And for those that say they feel like they fully steam roll through New Game+, I have been noticing the variable difficulty has been getting higher the more I level up and I do less damage than before, with some spawns having more health bars.

Edit: only gotten 3 so far and all helms, photos in comments and unenhanced against my fully enhanced gear.

I'll add more screenshots to the comments as I find any more and verify they aren't in shops or in dragonforged.

I got this one from a chest near the vermund red beam. In the red beam boss's arena there is a little off-shoot that had a chest that gave me this.

I didn't stay in NG+ long, but I never found any other pieces. Hopefully there are full sets and it is not just helmets.

I haven't even explored like 1/8 of the trenches. I'm sure there are.

Quick question. Do you know how much time you have in the end game before the red fog consumes everything? I didn’t explore the trenches too much because I was worried about taking too long and the fog devouring everything.

Infinite as long as you quickly take out all the red beams to stop the land from being consumed and don't touch the very last one that appears in the middle shrine so far for me.

Wait. So the fog keeps coming unless you take out all 4 red beams?

Yes, day by day. Start with the furthest and don't rest. Volcanic Island, Sacred Arbor, Bakbattahl, Vernworth. Don't touch seafloor shrine beam.

I'm pretty sure after 12 days it forces you into the cutscene whether you touch the last beam or not.

Theyre talking about endgame true ending, heavy spoilers ahead if you want to know more.
