Gear is the miscellaneous equipment and upgrades acquired by each protagonist throughout the campaigns of Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. In contrast to the equipment on the Relics, Alchemy, Curios, and Heirlooms screens, Gear cannot be changed at will, instead needing the help of the corresponding NPC. The Gear tab include any protective garment currently worn, any upgrade purchased or found, story significant objects, and a tally of the various collectibles found in that specific location.
