Equip protective gear to increase the HP of your Autobots. Rarer gear may have bonus modifiers that could increase XP or Energon Shards earned. Equip appropriate gear when you switch between characters. Character specific gear is always the most effective (for example, Optimus Prime's Transmetal Claymore). Equipment has five rarity levels: Common (CO), Uncommon (UC), Rare (RA), Epic (EP), and Legendary (LG). The rarer the gear, the better the stats and unique benefits. When you open the Space Bridge, a new item will be transported to you. The rarity of the gear may vary.
