Weighs 3.9 and provides 5 poise. The regular four-piece outfit weighs 28.1 and gives 51 poise, before weapons and talismans.

Has a base 3% drop chance per eligible enemy at 100 Discovery. Higher Discovery improves the chance; a fixed number of kills does not guarantee the piece.

In-game description

Gauntlets worn by Raya Lucaria Academy knights.

Time has yet to dull their luster.

Where to find

Cuckoo Knights on Bellum Highway

Liurnia of the Lakes

Starting Site of Grace: Bellum Church

  1. One checked approach to Bellum Highway uses the Academy Glintstone Key. Collect it behind the sleeping dragon north of Temple Quarter, then examine the seal at South Raya Lucaria Gate to reach Main Academy Gate.
  2. From Main Academy Gate, examine the other blue seal at the northeast end of the junction. It takes you across the broken bridge to East Raya Lucaria Gate; walking along the broken bridge itself does not cross the gap.
  3. Ride north along Bellum Highway and turn toward Bellum Church on the left side of the road. Activate its grace.
  4. Rest at Bellum Church and pass time until morning for the mounted-knight farm. Night's Cavalry can appear on this highway at night and is a separate boss.
  5. Leave the church toward the southeast and find the ruined stone patch in the middle of the road. Clear or draw away the ordinary soldiers before fighting the blue-plumed Cuckoo Knight.
  6. More Cuckoo Knights patrol the nearby highway on horseback. Defeat the knights and check their loot, then rest at Bellum Church to repeat.
  7. The route above uses the academy seals to reach Bellum Highway. The farm itself is outdoors and does not require defeating Rennala or riding Grand Lift of Dectus.

Notes

  • Weighs 3.9 and provides 5 poise. The regular four-piece outfit weighs 28.1 and gives 51 poise, before weapons and talismans.
  • Has a base 3% drop chance per eligible enemy at 100 Discovery. Higher Discovery improves the chance; a fixed number of kills does not guarantee the piece.
  • Its strongest elemental protection is Magic at 3.1%, and its weakest is Lightning at 2.1%. These are incoming-damage reductions.
  • Farm the blue-plumed Cuckoo Knights. Cuckoo Surcoat and Raya Lucarian Soldier equipment belong to the lower-ranking soldiers, not this outfit.
  • The academy association does not give these pieces Intelligence, sorcery-damage or glintstone-skill bonuses.
  • The regular chest can be tailored to remove the cape. The alteration saves one weight and keeps 24 chest poise, while protection and resistances change.
