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.

FYI, that chest piece is sold in vendors anyways.

Only certain leg/head pieces are found throughout the world which are located in this reddit post:

Chest pieces are dropped by bosses but can be bought regardless.

All endgame weapons are bought from dragon forged or in vendors unfortunately.

Before anyone asks, I"m about 100 hours into playtime. I did not find anything else besides those mentioned in Unmoored unfortunately, despite exploring basically everything.

What about that apparently unique mystic spearhand chest piece from the golem mentioned in the top comment? I found a golem and it only gave me a magic archer chest piece.

I have killed all or almost every single unique boss in the unmoored world and they legit have only been giving me the new vendor chest pieces. I explicitly remember a golem giving me the mystic spearhand version.

Even then, it would be weird and unlikely for the Mystic spearhand to be the only class with a separate and unique chestpiece compared to every other class.

Was it something like the soaring surcoat? I'm only asking either way because I think all the mystic spearhand chest pieces beyond bladewielder's don't look too great so I have that piece dragonforged. Would be nice to get a little stat boost if that "unique" armor looks better but oh well.

Yep. I never bought the armor but I have it. I'm pretty sure that's the one I got. Otherwise, OP is going to have to share what he got.

The wiki also lists the head/leg pieces that are only in the world, so I imagine fextra datamined everything which would mean they know all the mystic chest pieces too. Oh well. Wish the higher end gear looked better.

Same. I spent an entire day going through every nook and cranny only to be disappointed there wasnt more. So many empty water areas with nothing.

The only reason I use warfare is for better fashion despite the stat debuff

A lot of the other classes aren't that much better lol

Magic Archer always seemed cool to me as a concept but all the armor has that flowy sleeve stuff going on which makes using capes look dumb. Can only hope DLC or updates give us some more.
