Expect to grind that material before committing.Counts as one piece toward the Conquistador's Armor 2-piece and 4-piece bonuses: pairing it with a second piece from the same set is usually the minimum to get value out of the plan.36363737Set Pieces38383939The Conquistador's Armor set has five slots. Equipping more pieces from the same set unlocks the 2-piece and 4-piece bonuses listed above, so most players craft and upgrade these slots together rather than mixing armor families.

Its Defense rises to 300 at item level 11, matching the Conquistador's Helmet and the other slots in the Conquistador's Armor line.45454646The cuirass plan is one of the earliest set plans you can buy: the Smugglers of Port Royal Provisioner sells it at Reputation Rank 2 for 200 Piastres, alongside the legs plan. Because the torso slot has the highest material cost in the set, stock up on Copper Ingot for the first tier and Mire Metal Ingot for the top tier before crafting.47474848Pair the cuirass with the helmet for the 15% Damage Resistance 2-piece bonus, then add two more slots to unlock the Bulwark 4-piece, which prevents the first few incoming hits from interrupting your attacks. This makes the set a strong base for slow, heavy two-handed weapons such as the Halberd.49495050See Also51515252Conquistador's Armor: full set overview, build notes, and mixing tipsArmor and Equipment: Windrose armor system, slots, and rarity tiersArmor and Clothing Workshop: crafting station for every armor pieceSmugglers of Port Royal: faction that sells the set plansUpgrade System: how armor scales beyond its crafted item level53535454Game Data55555656Properties57575858PropertyValueWeight2.05959Crafted By60606161Crafted at: Armor and Clothing Workshop62626363IngredientQuantityCopper Ingotx4Coarse Fabricx26464Unlocked By65656666DISCOVERY Выплавка толедской стали и изделий из нееAshlandsAncient Steel Shard67676868Disassembles Into69697070MaterialQuantityCopper Ingot×4Coarse Fabric×1Rough Hide×17171Taught By72727373PlanPlans: Conquistador's Cuirass
