Brand

"There are various different brands of gear, and oddly enough... each brand's gear takes more easily to different kinds of extra abilities! So if there's an ability you like, try getting gear from the same brand!"

- Judd

Brands are the names and logos of the makers of gear and some weapons. Most brands have an effect on Abilities assigned to empty slots: a preferred ability that's 5x more likely, and another that's only half as likely.
