Plans: Conquistador's Cuirass

Plans: Conquistador’s Cuirass is a single-use Recipe Paper in Windrose. Reading it permanently unlocks the chest piece Conquistador’s Cuirass, the torso slot of the Conquistador Set.
Recipe Papers are looted in the world: most often from chests in Pirate Camps, ruins in the Coastal Jungle, and Points of Interest scattered across the archipelago. Some merchants in Tortuga also rotate a small selection of plans through their stock. The paper is consumed when it is read. Reading the paper adds the listed entry to the relevant crafting station’s recipe list permanently for that character, with no further fee.
Reading the paper unlocks Conquistador’s Cuirass at the Armor and Clothing Workshops. The Cuirass is the chest piece of the Conquistador heavy-armor line, one of the six rare armor sets in the game. The Conquistador set is the ingot-based heavy line, so the Cuirass is crafted from metal ingots rather than leather or cloth; check the Conquistador’s Cuirass page for its exact material list and defense value.
The Cuirass is one slot of a full set. Each piece has its own plan that must be found and read separately. The Conquistador Set page lists the full set bonus; the related pieces are:
Slot | Piece | Where the recipe comes from |
|---|---|---|
Chest | This plan | |
Head | Its own recipe paper | |
Hands | Its own recipe paper | |
Legs | ||
Feet | Its own recipe paper |
Drops most reliably from looted chests in Pirate Camps and ruined Points of Interest, with occasional appearances in cargo crates from defeated NPC Ships and in random trader stock at Tortuga. Once read, the unlocked entry is bound to the character that read it; share-base members must each find and read their own copy.

Carry duplicates as trade bait. Until a base stockpiles every recipe paper for an armor set, an extra copy is a strong barter chip with other crews.
Collect the matching plans together. A single piece gives no set bonus, so the Cuirass pays off most once the rest of the Conquistador Set is unlocked and crafted.
Read papers at a base, not on a ship. Being at the Armor and Clothing Workshops lets you preview the new entry and check its material cost immediately.
Once read, the unlock is permanent for that character. Reading a second copy does nothing, so a duplicate paper is best traded or sold.
