How often should I be buying new gear?

[Renji]

Tip: My father taught me a real life lesson that revolves around buying gear you need rather than want. He also taught me to not save a quick buck (American Currency Word)  when it came to anything that I needed, as you should never have to re-buy anything. Settle for only the best quality items that last your entire play time. Don't half-ass gear when you can gain something quality instead.
