The Red Cogwheel, also known as the Smeldon Cogwheel, is the next tier after the Gold Cogwheel. Typically, Red Cogwheels possess level 10 skill attributes. However, some Red Cogwheels for specific classes do not reach level 10, such as the Wizard's Meteor Area Cogwheel. This skill is usually available at level 1 in Gold Cogwheels, but in a Red tier Cogwheel, it upgrades to level 2. Red Cogwheels can be equipped when a character attains level 55 or above.
Unbox from the Mysterious Gear Capsule, purchasable from the RO Shop, or gather five pieces of Dissimilatory Steel from decomposing gold gears to exchange for a random gear egg at the Alienated Metal Shop.

Smeldon Cogwheel offer an upgrade in skill levels from previous gears. They come in three types: single skill gear, two-star skill gear, and lightweight two-star skill gear. They also introduce new special properties to both Basic Skills and Advanced Skills. Basic Skills are universal skills that receive enhanced properties. For instance,

The weight of a typical Smeldon Cogwheel is 7 units, differing from blue, purple, and gold gears that usually weigh 4, 5, and 6 units respectively. Characters can typically carry a maximum of 15 units, allowing us to equip only 2 red gears. However, red gears can be combined for a chance to create a lightweight Smeldon Cogwheel, which weighs 5 units, the same as a lightweight gold gear.
To renew the Smeldon Cogwheel, you need 5 pieces of the Advance Lubricant item, which can be purchased from the Trade at a price of 20,000 Zeny each. This means we will have to spend 100,000 Zeny for each renewal of the Smeldon Cogwheel.
