Summarizing MapleStory equipment setup types, including 3 CRA 5 AbsoLab, 4 CRA 5 AbsoLab, 1 Arcane 2 CRA 5 AbsoLab, 3 CRA 5 Arcane based on no liberation, and 4 CRA 5 AbsoLab, 4 CRA 5 Arcane, 4 Ethernel 5 AbsoLab, 4 Ethernel 5 Arcane, 4 CRA 4 Meister 4 AbsoLab based on liberation. We will mainly explain the most popular equipment setups currently used.

Preliminary explanation of the items used in each equipment setup. - CRA: Items from Chaos Root Abyss bosses (Fafnir weapon, Highness hat, Eagle Eye top, Trixter bottom) - AbsoLab: Items from Suu, Damien bosses (weapon, glove, shoes, cape, shoulder, hat, overall) - Arcane: Items from Arcane River bosses (weapon, glove, shoes, cape, shoulder, hat, overall) - Ethernel: Items from Grandis bosses (weapon, glove, shoes, cape, shoulder, hat, top, bottom) - Meister Set: Items craftable in Meister Ville (weapon, earring, ring, shoulder)

This is a method of setting the hat, top, and bottom as CRA, and the weapon, glove, cape, shoulder, and shoes as AbsoLab. AbsoLab weapons are cheap, so they are sometimes used in equipment setups of 17 stars or less, but if you are considering 18 stars or more, it is better to purchase an Arcane weapon. This setup is not used much now because Arcane weapons have become cheaper.

This setup uses weapons, tops, and bottoms as CRA, gloves, capes, shoulders, and shoes as AbsoLab, and the hat is a Chaos Root Abyss Lucky Item. You can receive both the CRA 4-set effect and the AbsoLab 5-set effect. In the past, it was meaningful for sub-characters due to the price difference between Fafnir weapons and AbsoLab weapons, but now it is better to use Arcane weapons. Zeros use a Lucky Item hat for the 4 CRA 5 AbsoLab setup until liberation because of the gimmick of upgrading weapons directly.

This is the same setup except for changing only the weapon to Arcane. In 1 Arcane 2 CRA 5 AbsoLab, the weapon is Arcane, the top and bottom are fixed as CRA, and the hat, gloves, shoulders, cape, and shoes are AbsoLab. In 3 CRA 5 Arcane, the hat is CRA, and the gloves, shoulders, shoes, and cape are Arcane. This setup shows the highest performance because the basic attack power of Arcane weapons is high.

The selection criteria vary depending on the armor market and budget. - 1-2 billion per part: 17-18 star AbsoLab - 3-5 billion per part: 17-18 star Arcane - 10 billion or more per part: 20 star or higher AbsoLab, 20 billion or more: 20 star Arcane - Completely free-to-play: Arcane recommended (higher value)

This is a setup where the hat is CRA instead of AbsoLab. Since the hat, top, and bottom are set as CRA with the liberation weapon, which is a Lucky Item, in most setups after liberation, this is a setup where the hat is set as CRA in advance. It is slightly weaker than the AbsoLab hat before liberation, but it is okay to set it up in advance because liberation is not difficult.

This is the most common liberation setup. The Genesis weapon is a Lucky Item, so it can be applied to multiple sets like the Chaos Root Abyss hat. The hat, top, and bottom go to CRA to fix 4 CRA, and the gloves, shoes, cape, and shoulder are determined as AbsoLab or Arcane to set up.

If you put the hat, top, and bottom as Ethernel instead of CRA, you will get the 4 Ethernel 5 AbsoLab / 5 Arcane setup. Use it when you put in 17-18 star Ethernel cost-effectively, or when you have already matched all parts to 22 stars and have no choice but to do 22 star Ethernel.

This is a setup where the shoulder is Ethernel and the hat is AbsoLab in the 4 Ethernel 5 AbsoLab setup. Most liberation users go to CRA for the hat, so this is a cost-effective setup that brings in the cheaper AbsoLab hat and puts in the Ethernel shoulder for the set effect. The hat part is the only part where skill cooldown reduction appears, so if you are a cooldown reduction job, it is better to bring in the AbsoLab cooldown reduction hat. However, as much as you set it up cheaply, it may cost more money when moving to the next equipment setup.

Since the Genesis weapon becomes a Lucky Item, this is a setup that uses all Meister, CRA, and AbsoLab, which can maximize the weapon set effect. Use the Genesis weapon, CRA hat/top/bottom, AbsoLab gloves/shoes/cape, Meister earring, Meister ring, and Meister shoulder together. This setup is established because of the 20% boss attack power of the Meister 4-set effect. If you use the Meister shoulder and earring, one accessory set effect is missing, and the item option itself is low, which can be a disappointing setup. There are almost no Meister shoulder items available. It is better to match it only in the section where cost-effectiveness comes out.

This is a setup where all armor is Ethernel. The Ethernel gloves, shoes, cape, and hat cost about 5 billion mesos, and it is a setup worth considering only if you invest more than 10 million won in cash.
