Version 0.13: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
This armour was reportedly created by enchanting the hide of a now-extinct species of troll. Whether this armour is truly a remnant of the legendary unseen terrors of the wind or merely an appropriation of the name to add mystique is something of a mystery; its power of rapid regeneration at the occasional expense of the wearer's magic power, however, is hard to dispute.

Desirability

The moon troll leather armour is a huge upgrade over standard troll leather armour. Although it still offers only mediocre physical defense, its regeneration bonus totals to +70 (40 from the artefact property and 30 for being a troll leather armour) unless you're a troll (they only receive the +40). The spirit shield and extra MP help increase both durability and casting capacity, making it a good selection for casters and EV-based fighters.

History

Moon troll leather armour was be added in 0.13. The extinct "moon trolls" the item gets its name from were an aborted type of troll. Permanently invisible and surrounded by a Tornado effect, they would have been found in a moon-themed mini-branch that was never released.
