Version 0.24: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
A suit of armour rumoured to have been created by enchanting the hide of a now-extinct species of troll. Whether the name rings true or is merely appropriated to add mystique is something of a mystery. The armour's innate powers of regeneration and magical protection, however, are hard to dispute.

Desirability

The moon troll leather armour[1] is a huge upgrade over standard troll leather armour. Although it still offers only average physical defense, its regeneration bonus totals to +80 (40 from the artefact property and 40 for being a troll leather armour). The spirit shield and extra MP help increase both durability and casting capacity, making it a good selection for casters and EV-based fighters.
