About this armor
Weighs 2.2 and provides 3 poise.
The clothing has no hidden hand-to-hand, kicking, Faith or martial-arts damage bonus. Matching the outfit adds no separate effect.
Dane's Hat comes from his friendly duel at Moorth Ruins, along with Dryleaf Arts. The robe, arm wraps and cuissardes are a separate three-piece corpse pickup beneath the river waterfall.
In-game description
The sun-faded and lightly soiled hat of Dryleaf Dane. Worn low over the eyes, it obscures the wearer's vision.
Meeting the gaze of another can overcome the senses, often leading to the downfall of those who would walk the noble and solitary seekers' path.
Where to find
Dryleaf Dane at Moorth Ruins
Scadu Altus
Starting Site of Grace: Moorth Ruins
Before you go
- To enter the Realm of Shadow, defeat Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood, then touch the withered arm in Mohg's arena at Mohgwyn Palace.
- Access the Realm of Shadow and reach Scadu Altus.
- Collect the May the Best Win gesture at Highroad Cross.
- Reach Highroad Cross in Scadu Altus, just beyond Castle Ensis's northern exit after Rellana. Collect Monk's Missive and the May the Best Win gesture beside the cross.
- Follow the road east toward Moorth Ruins and activate its grace. Dryleaf Dane stands near the cross there. Talking alone does not start his duel.
- Stand in front of Dane and perform May the Best Win. Let the gesture finish to enter the duel, then defeat him. You can retry if you lose.
- Back in your world, collect Dane's Hat and Dryleaf Arts from the reward beside his position. Do this before burning the sealing tree and advancing to the final Enir-Ilim encounter if you want his earlier rewards.

- Dane's Hat comes from his friendly duel at Moorth Ruins, along with Dryleaf Arts. The robe, arm wraps and cuissardes are a separate three-piece corpse pickup beneath the river waterfall.
- The duel does not permanently kill Dane or prevent his later story appearance. Dane's Footwork is a different weapon awarded through the later encounter, rather than a reward from the waterfall.
- This piece cannot be altered. Only the robe has a tailored version.
