Overview
The Saint's Necklace is a Necklace accessory in Crimson Desert. With +5 Defense and a Vitality active effect that restores Stamina, it is the most defensive necklace in the game and one of the few accessories that provides an active ability. The necklace is a relic associated with a saint who served Solumen.
Players can equip one necklace at a time. The Saint's Necklace offers a dramatically different profile from offense-oriented options like the Tarnished Necklace (+1 Attack) or the Finely Crafted Gold Necklace (+1 Attack, Critical Rate Lv.1), making it ideal for players who want survivability from their necklace slot.
Stats
Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
Type | Necklace |
Defense | +5 |
Attack | 0 |
Active Effect | Vitality (LT + RT) |
Sell Price | 9.50 Silver |

At +5 Defense, the Saint's Necklace provides five times the defensive value of the Tarnished Necklace's zero Defense. The high sell price of 9.50 Silver also makes it one of the more valuable accessories in the game.
Active Effect: Vitality
The Saint's Necklace has an active effect called Vitality. When activated by pressing LT + RT, it stabilizes the wearer's breathing and relieves muscle fatigue, rapidly restoring depleted Stamina. This makes it highly useful during prolonged combat encounters or exploration segments where Stamina management is critical. The active effect has a cooldown period before it can be used again.
How to Obtain
The Saint's Necklace is the reward for solving the Hillside Manor Strongbox puzzle in Hernand. Hillside Manor is located just below the eastern tip of Hernand Castle, directly above the Church of Hernand. The main doors are heavily guarded, but players can bypass them by climbing up to a second-floor window on the southwest side of the building.
The strongbox uses a wheel combination lock. The solution is: 2, 3, 4, 5, 5. After solving the puzzle, a Mask that allows criminal behavior must be equipped to collect the necklace.

"A relic said to be an object belonging to a saint who served Solumen. By stabilizing the wearer's breathing and relieving muscle fatigue, it rapidly restores depleted Stamina."
Notes
The Saint's Necklace is one of two accessories obtained from Hernand strongboxes that feature active effects (the other being necklace slot items from later regions).
Hillside Manor is one of five strongbox locations in the Hernand region. See Strongbox Puzzle Locations and Solutions for all solutions.
The Vitality active effect is particularly useful during boss fights where Stamina drain is high, such as encounters with Excavatron or Gregor the Ruined.
