In-game description
"Infantry armor of the Spanish tercio. Favored by buccaneers of the archipelago for its ideal balance of protection and mobility, essential for hunting the local beasts."
Defense
Like all Rare and Uncommon armor, Pikeman's Pants has three crafting tiers that set its base Defense. Each tier can be upgraded several more levels at the Upgrading Station using the same recipe materials.
Item Level | Defense | Craft Tier |
|---|---|---|
1 | 100 DEF | Base tier |
6 | 160 DEF | Second tier (upgraded recipe) |
11 | 200 DEF | Third tier (top recipe) |
Crafting
Requires the craft plan Plans: Pikeman's Pants to be unlocked first. The Plans: Pikeman's Pants is sold by the Smugglers of Port Royal Provisioner at Reputation Rank 2 for 200 Piastres; the Provisioner is reached by building reputation with Smugglers of Port Royal.
Item Level | Station | Materials |
|---|---|---|
1 | ||
6 | ||
11 |
Each tier unlocks a new workshop attachment: the Shoemaker's Bench at ilvl 6 and the Material Rack at ilvl 11. Both attach to the Armor and Clothing Workshop and require its Bonfire coverage to function.
Set bonuses
Pikeman's Pants counts toward the Pikeman's Armor 5-piece set. Set bonuses apply globally once the stated number of pieces are equipped at the same time.
Pieces | Bonus |
|---|---|
2-piece | Increases maximum Health by 160. |
4-piece | Increases two-handed weapon Damage by 15%. |
Flavor text
"All enemies should be taken seriously. Even if it's a dodo."
Notes
Together with the Pikeman's Cuirass, the Pants plan is one of the two main pieces sold directly by the Smugglers of Port Royal Provisioner at Reputation Rank 2.
Counts as one piece toward the Pikeman'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.
