Sorry for the super late reply!
Yeah, gear visuals will change based on the "tier", and we will likely have some additional visuals beyond that. We're also looking at a costume system in the future.
There will be temporary weapons you can pick up, as well as primary weapons that you equip. The type for equipment differs per character (assuming we add additional playable characters).
Not familiar with the term charm in this context, but equipment will have special effects :D.

Yeah, equipment. For example the equipable (charm) gives you special effects (life regen on "specific" actions, attack speed, damage reduction), but I don't know if I'm talking about gear now. Maybe they could be gear pieces. And I have tought about a skin design for onyx, I will try to draw it later. If its good will you think about it :). Hope to hear from you and can't wait to buy myself a better laptop to play this game. Good luck with the projects! (sorry for bad english)
