At Lv.2, this is a noticeable improvement over Lv.1 movement speed bonuses found on many other footwear options. Faster movement speed helps with dodging enemy attacks, repositioning during combat, and simply covering ground faster when exploring the open world.26262727This effect stacks with other sources of movement speed, including Abyss Cores, food buffs, and headgear bonuses.

Compared to the Radiant Plate Boots (16 ATK, Fire Resistance Lv.1, Swim Speed +2%), the Sunset Reed boots trade raw attack power for higher defense and overland movement speed. The Plate Boots of the Shadows (16 ATK, 7 DEF, Climb Speed +2%) offer superior stats overall but are found later in the game and require exploring a different hidden location.44444545For early-to-mid game progression, the Sunset Reed Cloth Boots are an excellent option. The combination of 5 DEF and Movement Speed Lv.2 makes them versatile enough for both combat encounters and open-world exploration.46464747Tips48484949The Movement Speed Lv.2 bonus makes these boots ideal for players who prefer a hit-and-run combat style. The extra speed helps you dodge attacks and reposition between combos.The Sanctum of Absolution contains other treasures beyond the boots. Explore the full sanctum while you are there to collect everything.At 5 DEF, these boots offer more protection than many cloth armor pieces. Combined with the movement speed bonus, they are a good fit for light-armor builds that rely on evasion rather than raw damage absorption.The Force Palm trick to reveal the hidden room is not obvious. If you are stuck, try hitting walls on protruding platforms while standing at the sanctum's highest level.50505151See Also52525353FootwearArmorSanctum of AbsolutionSunset Reed Cloth GlovesSunset Reed Leather CloakRefinementRadiant Plate Boots54545555Database Stats56565757Grade: T5 · Slot: FOOTWEAR · Wearer: KLIFF · Max Defense: 3058585959Socket Effects60606161SocketEffectFortification I3 DefenseHaste ILv 1 Movement Speed6262Refinement Levels63636464LevelDefensePrice (Silver)Materials+0100None+11111x Cloth Piece+21222x Cloth Piece+31433x Cloth Piece, 1x Fleece+41644x Cloth Piece, 2x Fleece+51856x Cloth Piece, 3x Fleece, 15x Spider Web, 1x Abyss Artifact+620610x Cloth Piece, 4x Fleece, 30x Spider Web, 1x Abyss Artifact+722712x Cloth Piece, 5x Fleece, 45x Spider Web, 1x Abyss Artifact+824815x Cloth Piece, 7x Fleece, 60x Spider Web, 1x Long Hair Hide, 1x Abyss Artifact+926920x Cloth Piece, 10x Fleece, 90x Spider Web, 3x Long Hair Hide, 1x Abyss Artifact+1030121x Aeserion's Scale, 1x Abyss Artifact6565Crafted at: Smith.
