    Upgrading esoteric gear

    I haven't played in months and am just getting back into it again so I'm not quite hip to all the details of upgrading gear purchased with esoteric tomes. What are the different items needed to upgrade esoteric armor, weapons, and accessories to ilvl 210 and where do you get them? Thanks

    You need Illuminati Gobtwine for gear, Illuminati Gobcoat for accessories and Illuminati Gobdip for weapons. All of these can be acquired via raiding inside of Alexander Savage.

    Recently, Void Ark was updated to drop a Mhachi Farthing once per week upon completion. This can be traded for a Gobtwine or Gobcoat.

    Gobdip is still exclusive to Alexander Savage, so getting a weapon above i200 requires either raiding, Thordan Extreme, or completing an Anima Weapon.

    I must make correction to my previous statement.
    I rechecked PLD shield last night, while I was upgrading some Jewellery and it does not take a Gobcoat.
    The PLD sword and shield are upgraded together with a Gobdip (A4S drop). This is change from every previous upgrade for PLD, where weapon and shield were upgraded separately, which is why I got it wrong.
