About this armor

Weighs 9.9 and provides 20 poise. It has no hidden attribute, weapon or spell bonus.

Istvan awards the four regular pieces directly. Magma Shot comes from reporting the contract to Tanith; it is not needed to make the armor work.

Cannot be altered. It can be mixed with other armor without losing a full-set effect.

In-game description

Greaves worn by Old Knight Istvan.

The corroded metal is reinforced with rock-hard scales, making it highly effective against non-physical attacks.

Istvan is one of a few wizened Tarnished who survive to this day.

Where to find

Old Knight Istvan's invasion sign

Limgrave

Starting Site of Grace: Warmaster's Shack

Before you go

  • Obtain the first Letter from Volcano Manor naming Old Knight Istvan.
  1. At Volcano Manor in Mt. Gelmir, speak to Tanith beside the armored knight and agree to join. Take the Drawing-Room Key and open the drawing room down the corridor. Collect the Letter from Volcano Manor from its table.
  2. Read the letter to mark Old Knight Istvan on the map. In Limgrave, start at Warmaster's Shack east of Stormhill Shack and head north toward the colosseum. Find the red invasion sign below the approach to its entrance.
  3. Use the red sign and defeat Old Knight Istvan in his world. This is the contract target, rather than a roaming knight. Winning gives all four regular Scaled armor pieces directly.
  4. Return to Tanith and report the completed request for Magma Shot. Her spell reward is separate from the armor, and reporting the kill makes the next letter available.

Notes

  • Weighs 9.9 and provides 20 poise. It has no hidden attribute, weapon or spell bonus.
  • Istvan awards the four regular pieces directly. Magma Shot comes from reporting the contract to Tanith; it is not needed to make the armor work.
  • Cannot be altered. It can be mixed with other armor without losing a full-set effect.
  • The outfit's name does not add a separate combat effect. Its protection comes from the listed defenses, resistances and poise, rather than an attack or skill buff.
  • If Istvan's letter is already available, his invasion can still be completed after Rykard. Tanith's spell reward then appears on the letter table, but the next main letter does not appear. The armor is not automatically lost just because Rykard is dead.
