About this armor
Weighs 4 and provides 6 poise. Include weapons and talismans when keeping your equipment load below the medium-roll limit.
Has a base 3% drop chance per eligible enemy at 100 Discovery. Higher Discovery improves the chance; duplicate pieces and empty kills are still possible.
Its strongest elemental protection is Fire at 4.5%, and its weakest is Lightning at 2.5%. These reduce incoming damage; they do not increase your own attacks.
In-game description
Mail hood of iron links covering a headband
engraved with flames. Attire of the Fire Monks.
The Fire Monks are guardians of the flame of ruin, forbidden by the Erdtree and said to be kept high in the Mountaintops of the Giants.
Where to find
Fire Monk camp southwest of Eastern Tableland
Liurnia of the Lakes
Starting Site of Grace: Eastern Tableland
- Reach eastern Liurnia's raised ground and activate Eastern Tableland grace. The camp you need is southwest of this grace, or northwest of the Artist's Shack, south of Church of Vows.
- Look for the red tents and the large campfire guarded by a Fire Monk and soldiers. Separate the enemies if you need a safe chance to search the camp.
- Target the large red-robed Fire Monk rather than only the smaller followers. Draw it away from the campfire so the other enemies do not surround you.
- Defeat it and check the dropped items. Rest at Eastern Tableland to repeat; the four armor pieces are separate random drops.
- Flame, Cleanse Me is a separate corpse pickup in this camp. Finding the spell does not require the monk to drop a whole outfit.
Notes
- Weighs 4 and provides 6 poise. Include weapons and talismans when keeping your equipment load below the medium-roll limit.
- Has a base 3% drop chance per eligible enemy at 100 Discovery. Higher Discovery improves the chance; duplicate pieces and empty kills are still possible.
- Its strongest elemental protection is Fire at 4.5%, and its weakest is Lightning at 2.5%. These reduce incoming damage; they do not increase your own attacks.
- Farm the large red-robed Fire Monk, rather than the small followers. Its weapons and armor are separate random drops.
- The clothing supplies Fire protection but does not strengthen Fire Monk or Fire Giant incantations. It does not prevent damage from Fire or lava.
- The dark Blackflame Monk outfit is separate. Neither outfit is an alteration of the other, and this outfit has no tailoring variants.
