In-game description


Armor of the Darkwraiths, former knights of
New Londo who descended into Dark.

Their armor transformed, and remains a
symbol of the Dark servants and their
diabolical art of Lifedrain.

The Abyss

Requirements

  • Meet Kaathe before committing the Lordvessel through Frampt.
  • Have 30 Humanity available to offer.
  1. Keep the Lordvessel unplaced while opening New Londo. Defeat Sif for the Covenant of Artorias, drain New Londo and wear that ring to survive the Abyss.
  2. Defeat the Four Kings and speak to Kaathe. Follow his dialogue, join the Darkwraith covenant and offer a total of 30 Humanity to reach rank +2.
  3. Receive the four armor pieces as the covenant reward.
  • Leaving the covenant can reduce its offered-Humanity credit. Merely carrying 30 Humanity does not grant the reward.

Notes

  • Weight and poise: Equips on the chest, weighs 9.8 and provides 16 poise. Poise helps resist stagger; it does not reduce health damage.
  • Physical protection: Provides 45 normal physical defense at base reinforcement. Its strongest physical protection at this level is against slash damage. Different attack types use different physical defenses.
  • Protection: At base reinforcement, its elemental defense is 30 magic, 31 fire, 27 lightning. Fire is its strongest elemental defense at this level. Defense values are not percentages of incoming damage blocked.
  • Status resistance: Adds 30 bleed, 21 poison and 0 curse resistance at base reinforcement. These help resist buildup; they do not cure an existing status.
  • Reinforcement: Reinforce to +5 with Twinkling Titanite. Reinforcement improves defenses and resistances without changing weight, poise or maximum durability. Armor does not use weapon embers or elemental conversion paths.
  • Reward threshold: The armor is the rank +2 Darkwraith reward, alongside the Dark Sword. Ordinary New Londo Darkwraith enemies do not drop the set.
  • Later equipment use: Once obtained, the armor can be worn without remaining in the covenant. It does not require a continuous Humanity balance.
