# Equipment

Players can purchase equipment in-game to make their heroes more powerful. Making wise purchases can significantly alter the results of a match. Earning gold and purchasing the right equipment is vital to securing victory in the MOBA landscape. 

There are 6 primary equipment attributes - Physical damage, Magical damage, Defense, Movement, Jungle and Support. Each category of equipment has different tiers, whereby Tier 1 is the lowest and Tier 3 is the highest. Players can obtain a higher tier equipment by purchasing it directly or combining lower tier items.
