Players can obtain various units in Final Gear, with the S-tier units being the best in the game, while the F-tier units are below average.
Overview
Final Gear consists of a fascinating storyline and stunning character art. It has recently been released on both iOS and Android. The strategic role-playing game from Komoe Technology Limited and FlashWing Studio allows players to explore a post-apocalyptic world. Humanity now struggles to survive and they are forced to use mobile mech suits in the midst of a global disaster.
In the game, players can collect various mech parts in order to create their own mech suits. They are then able to take on the role of Captain in order to recruit female pilots across the fictional world. The maidens each have their own quirks, personalities, occupations and attributes. Additionally, they will unlock special abilities when paired with specific custom mechs.
The official description reveals that in the year 2110, a meteor strike changed the face of the earth into a wasteland. Subsequently, humanity was on the brink of extinction. However, the people who survived worked on reconstruction to bring back a scientific and technological civilization.
One of the mightier groups among them was Kegha. Due to their superiority, in both technology and numbers, they established a capital city. They also created a form of mobile, weaponized battle armour. This mech technology soon spread all over the lands. Three main areas arose: The Kegha, The Hexel and The Arita.
The following table indicates the name and description of places in the fantasy world of Final Gear:
Name of place | Ruled by | Description |
Hexel | The Strong | Hexel is a freedom union. However, it is described as lawful evil. The continent has a thick sense of egoism, and the inhabitants believe in the law of the jungle. |
Kegha | The Queen’s Heirs | Kegha is an empire continent. It follows a chivalric code and features a strong sense of principle and group consciousness. The inhabitants have a fierce sense of national pride. |
Arita | The Commander | Arita is a federal republic, which pursues peace and justice. It is described as lawful good. The inhabitants are seen as warm and hospitable. |
In these areas, players can build a base in order to gather resources even if they are away from the game. Additionally, they can complete tactical missions with multiple objectives across different terrains and needing different strategies.
The in-game battles are set in real-time tactical maps. However, it features a side-scrolling view for a unique and action-packed experience. The game allows players to obtain over 100 pilots, each with stunning dynamic models and famous Japanese voice-actors. Players should remember that the units are divided into different tiers.
The S-tier characters are considered very powerful and they are generally difficult to obtain, while the F-tier units are not recommended for gameplay and players will collect them very fast. It is important to note that each character is also ranked according to their rarity.
The super super rare (SSR) characters are very powerful but hard to get, while super rare (SR) units have great potential and are somewhat easier to obtain. Rare characters are not very powerful, while normal units, on the other hand, have low potential.

Rarity explained
Final Gear features an in-game currency called Crystals, which can be used to summon units. It is believed that the gacha system is quite generous, as its rates for the highest rarity characters are at five percent.
Rarities are the system that collector games follow, where all the playable units in the game are divided into different rarities. However, these rates differ from game to game. In Final Gear, the rarities are as follows:
Rarity | Percentage chance to obtain them |
Super super rare units (SSR) | 5 percent |
Super rare units (SR) | 10 percent |
Rare units (R) | 47.5 percent |
Normal units (N) | 37.5 percent |
The table indicates that players have a higher chance to obtain normal and rare units. However, these units are not recommended for gameplay. Players should thus aim to obtain either a super rare, or a super super rare unit.
Players can purchase 10 pulls for 1 500 Crystals on any of the banners. Banners is the terminology which is used in gacha games, where certain units are targeted. This means it has a rate-up chance to recruit them.
