Carapace Greaves are the last leg armour the Mistlands asks you to make, and like the rest of the set they wait on a Black Forge and a working Eitr Refinery. They give 32 armour, or 38 when fully upgraded, which ranks 2nd among leg pieces. Worn with the rest of the Carapace Armor set, they are part of a 96 armour rating, which turns a 100-damage hit into 26.

How to Craft


They are made at a level 1 Black Forge from:

Name Image Biome Crafting Station Spawn ID
Carapace Carapace Mistlands - spawn Carapace
Scale Hide Scale Hide Mistlands - spawn ScaleHide
Iron Iron Swamp Smelter spawn Iron
Refined Eitr Refined Eitr Mistlands Eitr Refinery spawn Eitr

When to Use It


They are mid-game armour. They need Mistlands materials and a Black Forge, so they come after Yagluth and the sea crossing beyond him. The Ashlands and the Deep North still lie past this one.

Upgrades


They can be upgraded 3 times after crafting, and each level needs the station one level higher than the last. The other figures on this page are for quality 1, so this table shows the full upgrade path your own copy is on:

Quality Crafting Station Armor Durability Resources
1 Black forge (Level 1) 32 1200
2 Black forge (Level 2) 34 1400
3 Black forge (Level 3) 36 1600

Properties


  • -5% Movement speed
  • Movement -5%: this is what wearing them costs you in speed, and in the cost of a dodge roll.

Notes


  • They lower movement speed by 5%, and heavy chest and leg penalties add up, so a full heavy set slows you by 10%.
  • Armor lowers physical, fire, frost and lightning damage, but poison and spirit damage go straight through it.
  • Each upgrade level adds 2 armor.
