The Black Hand Set is a light armor set in Dark Souls III.
In-Game Description
- Attire of hunters known as the King's Black Hands.
A black cape covers leather armor, shrouding the wearer in darkness.
- Black Hand was a title established to honor hunters who served successive kings.
To date, no more than three such individuals have borne this distinction.
Availability[]
The hat and armor are sold by the Shrine Handmaid for a total of 7,500 souls after defeating Black Hand Kamui in the Grand Archives.
The gloves and trousers are sold by Greirat of the Undead Settlement for a total of 3,000 souls after he returns from pillaging the Undead Settlement. The Shrine Handmaid will also sell them at this price should she be given Greirat's Ashes.
Characteristics[]
An upgraded version of the Assassin Set, the Black Hand Set provides generally augmented defenses across the board except against Strike damage, while also slightly increasing the weight. Its main strengths are defense against Slash damage, as well as Magic and Fire. As well, it increases resistance against Poison by a significant amount.
