5+The confirmed max-refinement stats are 36 Attack and 17 Defense at +10, with two socket effects: Flameward I and Fortification I. At +0, the gloves are listed with 0 Defense and a 714 Copper price in equipment listings, so the old base-defense framing was misleading.

5-Valortread Plate Gloves is a Ultimate Plate Armor gauntlets piece in Crimson Desert. Plate gloves for a brave warrior who never retreats in battle. Brass-colored metal wraps from the fingertips to the elbows, lending destructive power to clenched fists. The flexible finger joints perfectly absorb the shock of swinging heavy weapons, allowing for steady, unwavering attacks.

26+Valortread Plate Gloves are best understood as a quest-set glove with defensive socket utility. Flameward I gives fire-related coverage, while Fortification I adds a flat Defense bonus. The +10 Attack value is high enough for an offensive glove slot, but the main appeal is getting the complete Valortread set from one questline reward chest.
27+ 
28+Quest reward: complete the Legendary Animals route instead of expecting a normal vendor purchase.Set handling: keep the gloves with the other Valortread pieces if you are comparing full set identity.Socket value: Flameward I and Fortification I provide defensive utility.Refinement target: +10 reaches 36 Attack and 17 Defense.
