There's a greater variety of gear in WotR, but it's not a high bar to clear considering Kingmaker was largely sparse in most weapon types outside of your companions' favored gear. Finnean the talking weapon can morph into any weapon type you need, at least. I have noticed that there's a lot less straight stat upgrade gear, and a lot more accessories with actual unique effects. There were enough unique accessories that I had to constantly weigh whether I wanted to equip accessories that boosted offensive effects or keep those standard deflection rings and natural armor amulets on, which was something I never had to consider in Kingmaker.

For example, a ring that allows an archer to launch an opportunity attack at an enemy within 30 feet receiving another opportunity attack from a party member attacking in melee. Or something like the below, which I imagine will be a staple for ray blasters/Eldritch Archer builds.

I would find the occasional straight up +2/4 belt, but I don't recall running into any +6 gear until I reached chapter 4, which I understood to be about 2/3rds-3/4ths through the game.
