Equipment
Equipment is vital to student performance as they grant large stat bonuses the higher the tier they are. These should be farmed to the highest tier available depending on how often a student is used.
Lower equipment tiers can drop from higher nodes (i.e. spending stamina on obtaining a T4 bag can also yield drops of the T3, T2 and T1 versions at a lower drop rate). Leftmost items in the drop list on a stage are thought to have the highest drop rate with rightmost having the lowest.
