Root Harnesk is made from Roots, Ancient Bark from the Swamp and Deer Hide from deer in the Meadows and the Black Forest, but archers wear it for two other reasons: the bow skill the full root set gives you, and the way pierce damage slides off it. It has 8 armour, or 14 fully upgraded. Worn with the rest of the Root Set, it adds up to 24 armour, which turns a 100-damage hit into 76.
How to Craft
You craft it at a level 2 Workbench from:
- 10x Root: dropped by Abominations in the Swamp.
- 10x Ancient Bark: chopped from Ancient Trees in the Swamp.
- 2x Deer Hide: dropped by Deer.

Properties
- -2% Movement speed
- Resistant(0.5x) VS Pierce
- Weak(1.5x) VS Fire
- Root Set bonus:
- +15 Bows
- Movement -2%: what wearing it costs you in speed and in the cost of a dodge roll.
Notes
- The movement speed penalties of chest and leg armor add up, so a full heavy set is 10% slower even before a shield is drawn.
- Armor reduces physical, fire, frost and lightning damage, but it does nothing against poison or spirit damage.
- Every craftable armor piece except Rag Armor gains 2 armor with each upgrade.
