Every new character may come in to play with Starter Gear. There are no item cards required for Starter Gear. Instead, the tag on the weapon specifies that it’s Starter Gear.
Starter Gear always swings for base damage:
Starter Melee Weapons do 2 Damage.
Starter Thrown, Bow, and Firearm Weapons do 5 Damage.
Starter Brawlers do 2 Damage but cannot block melee attacks.
Starter Shields block strikes, thrown weapons, and blue packet Ranged Attacks (arrows). They do not block red packet Ranged Attacks (bullets) or Psionic attacks (white packets).
