Tomb Prospector Trousers ❘ 墓暴きのズボン	Attire

In-Game Description

Attire of tomb prospectors who explore the old labyrinth on
behalf of the Healing Church.

The Healing Church traces its roots to Byrgenwerth, and is
therefore aware of the ruins' true importance.

They contain much more than mere hunter trinkets, indeed,
they hide the very secrets of the old Great Ones, sought after
by those with the insight to imagine greatness.

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 the highest defense combination of attire can be found on the Highest Defense Armor Sets page.

Tomb Prospector Trousers have the highest Thrust defense of all leg pieces alongside 12 others. These trousers are part of the Tomb Prospector Set.

Availability

Sold by: Bath Messengers [Hunter's Dream]

Radiant Sword Hunter Badge: This badge can be found on the top of Healing Church Workshop. It is one of the most important badges to collect; obtaining it adds Bloodstone Shards to the shop's inventory, which will allow you to upgrade weapons easily. It also unlocks Fire Paper and Bone Marrow Ash; these are very useful support items.

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 the Weight System page). It does affect the fall damage. Equip Load gets higher by equipping pieces of attire and right and left-hand weapons; furthermore, in the case of the weapons, even unequipped ones in your quick menu count. The higher the hidden "Equip Load," the more damage your character will take from the fall damage. Interestingly enough, pieces of attire from The Old Hunters DLC have no weight penalty; therefore, it is as if you would fall naked (more information on the Fall Damage page).

Notes

Available for purchase after obtaining Radiant Sword Hunter Badge.
