What is Gear Score in V Rising
Unlike other RPGs where you have to level up with XP, in V Rising you will need to accumulate Gear Score to find out if you are worthy enough to take down bosses and other enemies. Your gear score is determined by all your equipped gear, and you can check your score in your inventory. You can also check the number shown beside your health bar while in-game to see how well you score. You can change your score by finding new, higher-powered items, or unequipping the ones you have.
How to Check Gear Score
Gear Score determines how worthy you are while trying to fight other NPC enemies. The higher the score, the better you will be at taking them down. You can check your enemy’s level and compare it with yours to see if you would win or lose the fight. However, while fighting other players, you don’t require the Gear Score, and you can fight them any way you like.
To find out if you can outwit NPC enemies, you will have to keep an eye on the color of their health bar, as well as their level. If it is red, means that the fight will be challenging, and if you notice no color but just a skull, it means that your Gear Score is no match for their power.
Highest Gear Score in V Rising
Currently you can attain up to level 90 and beyond. With the new Dracula’s Regalia armor set, you can attain the highest possible gear score when you reach late to end game.
