Battlegear is an equippable resource in Songs of Syx. It is made by processing metal and coal in an unlockable weapon smithy. It can also be acquired through trading, though the price is high. Any citizen wearing battlegear will have an increase in damage done and defense when in combat.
Due to the amount of coal and metal needed, constantly producing battlegear can be a challenge. The amount of battlegear allowed per citizen can be customized by the player. When training soldiers, the player can choose how many units of battlegear are allowed for each division. Battlegear is one of four resources that can be sent to campaigning armies on the world map through an army supply depot, the other three being rations, clothes and drinks.
Though armies are not required to have battlegear, they perform much better with it. Battlegear provides a +50% armor bonus and a +25% pierce damage bonus.
As of around version 0.61, battlegear is no longer a resource, as it has been split into two resources, being weapons and armor.
