I'm curious about what kinds of special effects equipment has to offer outside of the standard boosts, so I figured I'd make a list of ones that I know of from various sources. I'm organizing them by type and coloring them based on whether or not the effect is positive, negative, or double edged..
While some of them sound pretty fun (Yet not gamebreaking), the equipment restrictions likely mean some characters might not have access to all of them.
