Attire

In-Game Description

    Attire of the Choir, high-ranking members of the Healing
    Church.

    Members of the Choir are both the highest-ranking clerics of
    the Healing Church, and scholars who continue the work
    that began at Byrgenwerth.

    Together with the left behind Great One, they look to the
    skies, in search of astral signs, that may lead them to the
    rediscovery of true greatness.
Note: The same in-game description in US & UK versions. ✓

Overview

  • Each piece of attire contributes to your overall defense and changes your character's appearance. While different pieces of attire do have different effects, the changes are typically not drastic enough to override aesthetic considerations. Information on highest defense combination of attire can be found on Highest Defense Armor Sets page.
  • You'll meet Adella, Nun of the Healing Church in the Storeroom of Yahar'gul during your first trip to the village, but shell be too scared to speak with you unless you're wearing Healing Church clothing. To earn her trust, you must equip one of the following pieces of chest attire before initiating conversation: Black Church Garb, White Church Garb, Choir Garb, Executioner Garb, Tomb Prospector Garb or Gascoigne's Garb.
  • You'll also meet Ludwig, the Holy Blade (Head) in the Underground Corpse Pile of Hunter's Nightmare after you defeat him. If you're wearing a Healing Church garment in your body slot, Black Church Garb, White Church Garb, Choir Garb, Executioner Garb, Tomb Prospector Garb or Gascoigne's Garb, Ludwig's dialogue will change and he'll offer you a yes/no prompt; answer yes and he'll give you the Holy Moonlight Sword immediately. If you answer "no" and reload the area, the Seeker of Secrets will show up and finish Ludwig; at this point you can obtain the sword by speaking to the Seeker.

Availability

  • Treasure in (Main Story): Upper Cathedral Ward, in Orphanage Corridor before the Grand Hall

Clothing Defense

  • Clothing Defense is a percentage reduction after Physical DEF is applied. "Every 10 points of defense is 1% damage reduction." Each type is specific and separate in this category. The entry for "Physical" (read as, Physical damage that's not specifically Thrust or Blunt) doesn't apply to Thrust or Blunt damage, as they each have their own separate numbers. Separate items of clothing stack multiplicatively, rather than additively like you might expect. Hat, chest, arms, legs of 50, 100, 40, 40 respectively for example, would yield 212, or 1000 * (1 - (.95 * .9 * .96 * .96)), rather than 230.
  • Caryll Runes that affect damage resistance stack on top of your Clothing Defense. Note that the "Physical" defense rune increases Physical, Thrust, Blunt, and Blood. "Arcane" only affects Arcane, but not Bolt and Fire, which each have their own rune. These also stack multiplicatively on top of clothing (and each-other). A 5% rune would be like adding a clothing item with 50 defense in that category. In the example above, you'd go from 212 to 251 with a +5% rune. More information can be found in damage reduction page.

Hidden Equip Load

  • Despite hidden "Equip Load" being removed for stamina regeneration with patch 1.04 (more information on Weight System page). It does affect the fall damage. Equip Load gets higher by equipping pieces of attire, right and left hand weapons, furthermore in case of the weapons even unequipped ones in your quick menu count. Higher the hidden "Equip Load" the more damage will your character take from the fall damage. Interestingly enough pieces of attire from The Old Hunters DLC has no weight penalty, therefore as if you would fall naked (more information on Fall Damage page).

Notes

  • Has the highest Arcane elemental defense of all chest pieces.
  • Part of the Choir Set.
  • Visual glitch was discovered where you can temporarily glitch cape from your Choir Garb if you use Yahar'gul teleport or portal traps in Chalice Dungeons. You need to equip any weapon your hunter puts on their back (Kirkhammer, Ludwig's Holy Blade, Burial Blade & Whirligig Saw) and enter the teleport. It is purely visual glitch only useful for you to see how the garb looks without the cape.
