Night's Cavalry Armor

Pitch-black armor thinly painted with dried blood.

Worn by the Night's Cavalry who ride funeral steeds.

The Night's Cavalry, who now wander the dim roads of night, were once led by the Fell Omen and were deliverers of death for great warriors, knights, and champions.

Starting Site of Grace: Inner Consecrated Snowfield

Before you go

• Obtain both Haligtree Secret Medallion halves and use the secret destination at the Grand Lift of Rold.

1. Obtain the right Haligtree Secret Medallion half from Albus in Village of the Albinaurics, beneath southwestern Liurnia's plateau. Follow the village path uphill past the perfumer, reveal the large pot before the bridge and speak to Albus. Stop attacking once he appears.
2. Obtain the left half from the rooftop beyond Commander Niall in Castle Sol. After defeating Niall, go through the exit behind his arena, ride the tower lift and collect the half beside the seated spirit. It is a separate pickup from his direct weapon reward.
3. Return to the Grand Lift of Rold and switch the action to Hoist secret medallion. Follow Hidden Path to the Haligtree through to the snowy exit. The ordinary Rold Medallion goes to the other part of the Mountaintops.
4. Activate Consecrated Snowfield grace near the exit. For Inner Consecrated Snowfield, continue north through the blizzard until the open ground becomes clearer; keep the grace as a safe return point.
5. Rest at Inner Consecrated Snowfield and pass time until nightfall. Ride southwest toward the moving caravan pulled by two trolls. One mounted black knight carries a flail and the other a glaive.
6. Use a ranged attack to pull one rider away from the caravan. Bring the fight back toward the grace and away from the rest of the escort; going farther south risks drawing in the ghostly Dragonkin.
7. Defeat the first rider, then find and defeat the second without resting between them. Watch the caravan's rear guards while drawing him away. Both riders must fall for the combined reward.
8. The reward gives the regular helm, armor, gauntlets and greaves together, plus an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone. The chest on the wagon holds a separate weapon and is not where the outfit is stored.

Notes

• Weighs 12.8 and provides 25 poise.
• There is no hidden attack, stealth, mounted-combat or night-only bonus. Wearing the matching outfit adds no extra effect.
• The four regular pieces are a combined reward from the two Snowfield riders at night. Other Night's Cavalry encounters award different items and do not provide random pieces of this outfit.
• Defeat both riders in the same attempt. Pulling them apart makes the fight easier, but resting after the first starts the encounter over rather than preserving half the armor reward.
• Tailoring the chest removes the cape and reduces weight from 12.8 to 11.8, and poise from 25 to 24. Protection and resistance also decrease.
• These alterations use ordinary tailoring, cost 500 runes per piece at a grace and are reversible. Boc can perform them through his available free service.
