About this set

Finger Reader Enia

Roundtable Hold

Starting Site of Grace: Table of Lost Grace

Before you go

• Defeat Maliketh.
• 45,000 runes for all four regular pieces.

1. Defeat Fire Giant and continue the story at the Forge of the Giants to reach Crumbling Farum Azula. The small section reached through the Four Belfries does not connect to this boss route.
2. Progress through Farum Azula and defeat Godskin Duo. Continue through the northern ruins and Dragon Temple Rooftop route until you reach the lift to Beside the Great Bridge grace.
3. From that grace, climb the stairs and turn uphill on the great bridge. The downhill side leads toward different loot. A Draconic Tree Sentinel guards the uphill approach; defeat it or get past it to the fog door.
4. Enter the arena and defeat Beast Clergyman and his second phase, Maliketh, the Black Blade. This victory changes Leyndell into the Ashen Capital, so collect any missable Royal Capital items before finishing the fight.
5. After the scene, activate Leyndell, Capital of Ash grace. You can return to Roundtable Hold now without defeating Gideon or the remaining main bosses.
6. Return to Roundtable Hold and enter the room behind the main table where the Two Fingers and Enia are. Open Receive equipment of champions and buy the armor with runes; exchanging or keeping the boss remembrance does not control this purchase. Buy the helm for 10,000, chest for 15,000, gauntlets for 10,000 and greaves for 10,000 runes.

Notes

• Includes Maliketh's Helm, Armor, Gauntlets and Greaves. The four regular pieces cost 45,000 runes, weigh 30.5 and provide 51 poise together.
• The armor does not add Destined Death, health drain or black flame to attacks. It has no separate matching-outfit bonus, and Maliketh's weapon and incantation are different rewards.
• The full outfit reaches 51 poise, useful for withstanding some lighter hits in ordinary encounters. It does not prevent stagger from every attack or replace active weapon and skill protection.
• Altering only the chest lowers the outfit to 29.5 weight and 49 poise. That saves weight but drops below the regular outfit's 51-poise total, so the cape change has a practical combat tradeoff.
• The shop unlock follows Maliketh's defeat, which also changes Leyndell. Collect missable Royal Capital items before that fight rather than expecting the armor purchase itself to trigger the change.
• Buy the pieces with runes without using the remembrance. The final capital bosses are not required, and the pieces can be worn separately.
