Niflheim raided Tenebrae; regardless of Noctis and Regis fleeing, Luna chose to stay behind to be with Ravus, her brother. Tenebrae fell under Niflheim’s control, and Luna was held captive.
Twelve years after Tenebrae’s invasion, the Niflheim Empire proposes peaceful terms to Lucis; as part of these terms, Luna was to marry Noctis in Altissia. As King Regis sends Crowe to bring Luna there, she is forced back to her room when she attempts to leave by Ravus. Aldercapt then brings Luna to Insomnia to be removed from Nifheim’s control and then escorted by Nyx to the Citadel. Luna finds out what happens to Crowe and receives the Hairpin meant to be given to her.
Next…
Luna is confronted by Glauca to see if the peace treaty was legit, then imprisons her. The Kingsglaive make their way to rescue her only to find out it was a trap. Nyx accompanied Luna by hijacking the Airship after escaping Ultros. Luna demands to be returned to the Citadel as the Imperials claim the Crystal; against Nyx’s wishes, Luna jumps off the Airship to be caught by Nyx, who follows her. As they arrive at the throne room, seeing Glauca in battle with Regis, Glauca removes the Ring of Lucii from Regis to leave it behind to finish his revenge. Ravus puts the ring on and burns. As Luna. Regis and Nyx escape; Regis gives Luna a ring to pass on to Noctis as he gets killed by Glauca.
Because of King Regis’ death, Nyx no longer can use magic. They also realize at this point that Luna’s Hairpin is a tracer and destroys it. They planned to meet Titus Drautos, the Kingsglaive leader and were approached by Lucha Lazarus, the traitor who killed Crowe. Luna tricks Luche into wearing the ring to remove it from his corpse. As Drautos arrives, he gets hit by a car by Libertus Ostium as Drautos reveals himself as Glauca. To protect herself from Glauca, she attempts to wear the ring, and Nyx stops her and wears it himself to find out he was deemed worthy of the ring.
In Final Fantasy: A New Empire, she comes to us in aid to escape to the city and puts on her new Unrivaled Dominion Gear to ‘gear up’ for battle!
Unrivaled Dominion Gear Pieces
(September 22nd, 2020)
The Unrivaled Dominion Gear is destined to reduce your opponents’ bonuses while benefiting your Elementals, Mercenaries, and Astrals. This Gear is also the first to contain Royal Dark stats.
Royal Dark stats add onto pre-existing Dark stats on a 1%:1T% basis.
So if you have 100% Royal Dark Troop Attack, it is equivalent to 100T% Dark Troop Attack.
Like the last several Gear sets, all the pieces have associated benefits that accumulate to a remarkable boost and have their advantages.

Gear Set Bonus
In the Mythic Forge, you will see a Set Gear Bonuses section (1st tab). A Set Bonus is activated as soon as you acquire every Gear Piece in the Set required in the row. The bonus will be determined by the lowest level piece you own. So if you have one Epic piece and the rest are Uncommon, you will get the Uncommon Set Bonus.

How Does it Compare?
It all comes down to the fact, is this set worth it? Is it any more beneficial than the last several releases?
Legendary Unrivaled Dominion vs. Legendary Crowe
Unrivaled Dominion and Crowe have similar stats types PER piece. Therefore that section will make it easy for observation.
Unrivaled Dominion Gear Boost PER Piece
*stats are at level 6 (Legendary) PER gear piece
- 500% Royal Dark Core Troop Attack, HP, and Armor
- 200% Royal Dark Mercenary Attack, HP, as well as Armor
- 50% Royal Dark Elemental Attack, HP, in addition to Armor
Crowe Gear PER piece:
*stats are at a legendary level
- 100T% Dark Core, Elemental, as well as Mercenary Attack
- 50T% Dark Core, Elemental, in addition to Mercenary HP
- 150% Dark Core, Elemental, and Mercenary Armor
Again, remember 1% Royal Dark Stats is equal to 1T% Dark. So with that in mind, it is similar to 500T%, 200T%, and 50T%, giving you significantly higher benefits in most areas.
Some of the substantial boosts include:
- 5xs Dark Core Troop Attack
- 4xs Dark Mercenary Troop HP
- 10xs Dark Core Troop HP
With that in mind, let’s analyze a Crowe legendary piece to a Basic (level one) Unrivaled piece to show even more discrepancy in another perspective.
Basic Unrivaled Dominion vs. Legendary Crowe
Unrivaled Dominion Gear Boost PER Piece
*stats are at level 1 (Basic) PER gear piece
- 250% Royal Dark Core Troop Attack, HP, and Armor
- 100% Royal Dark Mercenary Attack, HP, as well as Armor
- 25% Royal Dark Elemental Attack, HP, in addition to Armor
Crowe Gear PER piece:
*stats are at a legendary level
- 100T% Dark Core, Elemental, as well as Mercenary Attack
- 50T% Dark Core, Elemental, in addition to Mercenary HP
- 150% Dark Core, Elemental, and Mercenary Armor
As we can see above, Unrivaled Dominion Gear at Basic already supplies more prominent benefits besides Elemental Attack, HP, and Armor bonuses. But to be fair, Elementals haven’t been dominant lately.
