In general people talk about F2P equipment and P2P equipment in Lords Mobile. Your profile is saved even if you upgrade the grade of your equipment Thus you will want to have gear sets for all sorts of different situations and swap them in and out based on what you are doing at the moment. So you always can swap gear/talents/boosts mid march. Combat is determined by 1 check, when you hit the enemy.We do not know if there is a check if you set off. Gathering speed is determined by when you hit the tile.

Capacity is determined by two checks, when you set off, and when you hit the tile/player.Generally in pvp situations you do not want to be swapping move speed gear as the risk of forgetting something and not being 100% your strongest is a bigger deal than a little saved moved speed. For non-rallies these two events occur at the same time. Move speed is determined by two checks, when you hit go, and when your troops set off.You can switch out of the gear right afterwards and the timers will be the same. Research, Construction and Training Speed contributions are determined when you start the research/construction/training.If IGG increases the level cap, every gear is going to be almost worthless. Everything is temporary and reflects the current state of the game.If you ask them about it they will give some kind of explotive answer like “oh you’re just unlucky, go open more boxes.” IGG regularly nerfs the drop rate of important materials in Lords Mobile.
