The Chief's Ultimate Guide to Officer Equipment for Age of Origins

Officer Equipment: what is it and how does it work?

Every officer wears two pieces of equipment. Each piece gives three troop stats, then unlocks two Expertise skills as you level it up. The second expertise, at level 15, is where the real power is.

Essence Cores are the hardest material to get. Spend them only where they will do the most for your city — if you're not sure, ask an R4 or R5 for help.
