- For the Dark Souls variant, see Eastern Set.
The Eastern Armor Set is a medium armor set in Dark Souls III.
In-Game Description
- Distinctive armor made in an Eastern land.
- The exquisite craftsmanship and artistic design made these prized pieces in the collection of any nobleman.
- Offers excellent damage absorption, particularly from slashing attacks from katanas, which are commonly encountered threats in battles fought in the East.
Availability[]
Purchased from the Shrine Handmaid for a total of 23,000 souls after giving her the Easterner's Ashes.
Characteristics[]
The Eastern Set provides very strong defenses for its weight. While its elemental absorption is mediocre for the most part (it is exceptionally resistant to Fire damage), it provides extremely strong protection against Slash damage and is very resistant to Bleed buildup, making it especially effective when combatting foes wielding katanas, curved swords or curved greatswords. It also provides a moderate amount of Poise for its weight.
