  • T1, T2, T3..etc (T = Tier) - Used primarily in relation to crafting, gear, harvesting to denote the level/tier. (Note, that the Tier of a crafted item refers to the level of combine/resource it takes to make it, not necessarily the level of the final product. Different crafted items are different levels. Chestpieces are always at the top of the list, so a T3 Chestplate (Blue) would be usable by a level 29, but an (upgraded) UR T3 crafted chestplate (orange con) would be 2 levels higher at level 31. Still T3 though, because the resources used were T3).
