Bolton Plate Armor

Overview

Bolton Plate Armor is a Body Armor piece in Crimson Desert. It falls under the Plate armor category and is equipped on the upper torso of the player character. Body armor provides the highest defense stat among the four Armor types (chest armor, Headgear, Gloves, and Footwear).

"A sturdy plate armor associated with the Bolton name. Its heavy iron plating offers reliable protection against physical attacks, though it lacks elemental resistances."

This armor supports Abyss Cores with 3 available slots. Abyss Cores can be slotted in at specialized NPCs to add modifiers that enhance the armor's effectiveness. See the Abyss Gear article for more details on the system.

Pricing

Prices may vary depending on faction reputation.

How to Obtain

This armor can be purchased from the Hernand Contribution Shop.

Some armor pieces can also be crafted at a Blacksmith if the corresponding recipe has been acquired. Check with local Blacksmiths to see if a recipe is available for this armor.

Armor Set

Bolton Set (includes Bolton Plate Helm and Bolton Plate Cloak).

Armor sets in Crimson Desert share a visual theme across equipment slots but do not currently provide set bonuses when multiple pieces are worn together. The primary benefit of wearing a matching set is cosmetic. Individual pieces within a set still need to be refined separately to improve their stats.

Notes and Tips

The Bolton Plate Armor is purchasable from the Hernand Contribution Shop, meaning players need to accumulate enough Hernand faction contribution points before it becomes available. It pairs well with the Bolton Plate Helm for a full heavy armor look.

This armor can be refined through the Refinement System. Non-unique armor is upgraded using duplicate pieces, while unique armor requires specific materials found throughout the world.
