Moon troll leather armour
| 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. |
The +4 moon troll leather armour
Spirit shield
MP+5
Regeneration (+40)
Desirability
The moon troll leather armour 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.
