[QUOTE="Angel Tarragon, post: 4623707, member: 23733"] It is in the villages, towns, cities and metropolises the characters can buy any gear that is mass produced so long as it has a connecting portal to another major city. Most often, settlements will be connected to one or both of the Twin Cities. Otherwise, when in a frontier thorp or hamlet the character will be forced to pay more for their equipment as these settlements aren't yet large enough to be graced with a connecting portal to the other cities across the continent.
