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) 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.

Trivia

The extinct "moon trolls" the item gets its name from were an aborted type of experimental troll which never even reached trunk. Permanently invisible and surrounded by a Tornado effect, they would have been found in a moon-themed mini-branch that was never released.

The base regeneration rate of this armour was changed from +30 to +40 in 0.14 (Regen++), for a total of +80.

Moon troll leather armour was added in 0.13.
