About this armor
Weighs 1.1 and provides 2 poise. This is light clothing with limited protection against being interrupted, even though its wearer fights at close range.
It does not raise Strength or Intelligence and has no maximum-FP penalty. Those effects belong to Haima Glintstone Crown, not the rest of the outfit.
It does not boost Cannon of Haima, Gavel of Haima or other sorceries. You can wear it with a different headpiece without giving up a matching-outfit spell bonus.
In-game description
Manchettes worn by scholars of the Raya Lucaria Academy, tattered from being worn on the battlefield.
Where to find
Hill near the northern broken bridge
Altus Plateau
Starting Site of Grace: Road of Iniquity Side Path
- Reach Altus Plateau with both Dectus Medallion halves, from Fort Haight and Fort Faroth, or by climbing Ruin-Strewn Precipice and defeating Magma Wyrm Makar.
- Follow the road north from Altus Highway Junction, past the map monument, to Forest-Spanning Greatbridge grace. Use the waygate beside the grace to cross to the northern end of the broken bridge.
- Leave the northern bridge end and go a short distance north. Look on the western side of the road for a lone Battlemage standing on a rocky rise, east of West Windmill Pasture.
- Approach the rise from its accessible side and defeat that Battlemage. Watch for the large magical hammer at close range and the cannon spell if you stay farther away.
- Collect Haima Glintstone Crown, Battlemage Robe, Manchettes and Legwraps from this fixed reward. This is not a random armor farm, and the dancing village farther east is a different destination.
Notes
- Weighs 1.1 and provides 2 poise. This is light clothing with limited protection against being interrupted, even though its wearer fights at close range.
- It does not raise Strength or Intelligence and has no maximum-FP penalty. Those effects belong to Haima Glintstone Crown, not the rest of the outfit.
- It does not boost Cannon of Haima, Gavel of Haima or other sorceries. You can wear it with a different headpiece without giving up a matching-outfit spell bonus.
- The particular Battlemage on the northern Altus rise drops all four pieces together. You do not need to farm repeated kills or defeat Battlemage Hugues.
- There is no altered version, and it cannot be reinforced with Smithing Stones.
