This section includes the best armor, weapons, and mods that can be crafted or found within The Sky Breaker. It's meant to be followed if you only own The Sky Breaker, if you want to be as set as you can going into Secrets of the Spires, or for any reason you may want to only use Skybreaker resources.
Read this first to make sure you're set up for the best crafting: Onboarding
To create a sense of linear progression no matter what order you choose to play these two DLCs, the game uses changing stats for materials, gear, and gear mods. The first DLC you play in a given save file will always have lower stats, and the second DLC you play in a given save file will always have higher stats. Additionally, the first DLC's stats will be raised once you begin the second.
I'm not sure whether the higher or lower stats are used if you own just one DLC. Both sets of stats are included in this section, so in either case those of you with just The Sky Breaker should be covered.
