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 gear slots: a common ability that's 5x more likely, and an uncommon ability that's only 1/2x as likely.

Trivia

• Brands typically create a specific style of gear, such as Inkline's products, which are geared toward the outdoors.
• Brand logos can be found on stickers and pieces of graffiti, scattered throughout Inkopolis, Octo Valley and many multiplayer stages.
• Bomb Range Up is the only stackable ability without an associated brand for it.
