52 commits on gear/screen-2026-10-17, fast-forwarded to main. Designs and plans under docs/superpowers/.

A bag per class: every piece you collect stays yours; a drop never salvages a worn piece. Saved characters migrate on first load (worn and starter pieces move into the bag).
Rank 1–5 belongs to the slot and applies to whatever it wears; starter pieces use it too.
Tiers carry power (starter 0.5×, raid 1×, tier 2 1.25×, legendary 1.5×); item level = 20 × tier × rank; a gear score (sum of worn item levels) on the hero card and the sheet.
Gear sheet dialog (layout A): slot doll with name, item level, stars and effect beside each icon; hover a slot for its panel (worn, owned with Equip, unowned greyed with where they drop); one-click Equip and Unequip; green/red deltas including set bonuses; two-line Upgrade button with the cost, the gain and what's short; currency strip with hover explanations; NEW badges cleared when you open the slot; no stars on empty slots.
Run results: the drop card shows item level, rarity, stars, what you wear, Equip now / Keep in bag; equipping from results works (the Armory locks only while a run is live).
The hero wears the equipped gear in the menu (re-dressed on equip, no scene reload) and in the run; an equipped bow goes to the ranged slot and replaces the class melee prop. TBC/Wrath weapon models (Thori'dal, Warglaives) are not drawn yet: the class weapon shows instead (docs/archive/research/TBC-WRATH-WEAPON-MODELS-PLAN.md).
Legendary effect text corrected (+1.2% damage per rank, max 6%).

Hero card (name, class, gear score, currencies, Gear / Talents / Spells dialogs), next-run card with PLAY (solo starts at once, no party screen), Change zone and Difficulty dialogs (payouts read from the live rules), friends card (Create a party, Join with a code, Open parties), corner bar (Codex, How to play, Offline Practice, Feedback, Download, Options, Logout).
Party card: members, code with Copy invite, Listed / Invite only as one toggle button (changeable live by the leader), Start / Ready, the world loads dimmed behind it with the HUD out of sight until Start. Unlisted rooms need no password; any click on the card keeps it alive.
First visit once per account: Welcome, class with one-line roles, the first run alone (The Barrens, Normal). Hover explanations for every term, one-time hints under cards and dialogs, in-run hints on the first run (cache, objective, boss, rune, level up) at the bottom centre; all remembered per account (account_prefs, /api/profile/prefs).
Solo results offer Back to the main screen. Vocabulary: Play, Party, Difficulty, Start.
Idle forming lobbies close after 10 minutes; a disconnected seat in a forming lobby is kept 2 minutes.

Click to move: a short left click on open ground walks the hero there (green ring); WASD, F, Esc or a new click cancels; a reward pause only holds the walk.
N shows your three talent trees with learned ranks and effects (read-only); C shows your equipped gear in the character slots with tooltips.
Berserking grows its carrier 2× (was 3×).
From main: enemies spawn without the fade-in, off-screen bodies stop animating, corpses fade in 0.7 s, idle views stop costing bind groups, rosters preload, 110 enemies at once by default.

scripts/local-build.ps1 + Dockerfile.local: a running local server in about 2 minutes from the warm dev container (the release Dockerfile stays for CI).
Zone probe and report (scripts/zone-probe.ps1, scripts/zone-report.py), 35-zone catalog with measured bounds (shipped earlier today in 8943e03/491c2e3).
