How to get	Crafted by Kaziir the Armoursmith in The Dunes

Silver Armor Set is the highest armor tier in Kintara, consisting of four protective pieces that each reduce the damage you take. A complete set grants 15% damage reduction and requires Combat 25 to equip any piece.

Silver armor represents the endgame defense — the most protective gear available and the ultimate investment in survivability.

Complete Set

The Silver Armor Set consists of four pieces, each craftable separately:

Piece	Smithing req	Damage reduction	Durability	Cost (per piece)
Silver Helmet	24	3%	2,500	80 silver ingot + 60 molten rock + 15 brute horn
Silver Body Armor	30	6%	2,500	100 silver ingot + 80 molten rock + 25 brute horn
Silver Legguards	28	4.5%	2,500	75 silver ingot + 70 molten rock + 25 brute horn
Silver Boots	26	1.5%	2,500	40 silver ingot + 20 molten rock + 10 brute horn

Total cost for full set: 295 silver ingots + 230 molten rock + 75 brute horns

Set Bonus

Wearing all four pieces together grants:

• 15% damage reduction total (3% + 6% + 4.5% + 1.5%)
• 2,500 durability on each piece
• 100% coverage (head, torso, legs, feet)

There is no extra bonus for completing the set: the 15% is simply the four pieces added together. Partial sets still help — each piece adds its own reduction independently.

Damage Reduction

Armor no longer widens the shield pool — it reduces the damage you take instead. The shield pool stays at a fixed 100 points regardless of armor; restore it with Shield Potions.

Configuration	Damage reduction	Notes
No armor	0%	King Scorpia, Venomweaver cave hazards, Giant Scorpions and Magma Brutes deal 1.5× damage to unarmored players
1 Silver piece	1.5–6%	Depends on the piece; any piece also removes the unarmored penalty
Full Silver set (4 pieces)	15%	3% helmet + 6% body + 4.5% legs + 1.5% boots
Comparison: Full Iron set	10%	Iron tier

Silver provides 1.5× the damage reduction of Iron.

Durability & Repair

Each armor piece has 2,500 durability. Every hit you take costs 1 durability point on each piece you're wearing.

All worn pieces wear simultaneously — a full set consumes 4 durability points per hit across the set, but each individual piece still survives 2,500 hits. Wearing the full set does not make any single piece break sooner. A piece that reaches 0 durability breaks and is destroyed, so repair it before then.

Repair at Grimjaw in Frostmere or Harun the Forgewright in Dunes West (crafting is done at Kaziir the Armoursmith's):

• Repair cost: 60% of the full forge bill (ingots, Molten Rock and Brute Horn), scaled by durability loss, each material rounded up (minimum 1)
• Example: Silver Helmet (80 ingots to forge) at 50% durability ≈ 24 silver ingots + 18 Molten Rock + 5 Brute Horns to repair

Crafting Progression

Silver Armor Set is the pinnacle of the armor progression:

Tier	Armor type	Damage reduction (full set)	Combat req	Smithing req	Status
First	Iron	10%	15	14–20	Entry-level armor
Second	Silver	15%	25	24–30	End-game / Best-in-slot

Silver armor is the final armor tier — there is no higher protection available.

Sourcing Materials

To craft a complete Silver Armor Set:

Material	Amount	Farming location	Notes
Silver Ingot	295	Smelt 4 Silver Ore + 8 Coal per ingot at Grimjaw's or Harun's forge	1,180 Silver Ore + 2,360 Coal in total; Silver Ore needs Mining 20
Molten Rock	230	Lava fishing at Emberstone	One per catch, with the Fire-Resistant Fishing Rod
Brute Horn	75	Kill Magma Brute at Emberstone	1 in 5 drop rate; ~375 kills on average

Mining & Smithing Gates

Silver armor requires end-game progression:

Gate	Requirement	Notes
Mining 20	Unlock Silver Ore gathering on the Dunes maps (a forged pickaxe is needed there)	Must reach Mining 20 first
Smithing 24–30	Craft individual Silver armor pieces	Includes the highest Smithing requirement in the game (Silver Body Armor, 30)
Combat 25	Equip Silver armor	10 levels higher than Iron requirement

Silver armor is a serious end-game goal requiring both high Mining and Smithing progression.

Trading & Marketplace

Silver Armor pieces can only be listed on the Marketplace when undamaged (100% durability):

• Damaged pieces: Cannot be listed on the marketplace; player-to-player trades accept them, and the piece keeps its durability
• Repair first: Repair at Grimjaw or Harun to restore to "like new" condition
• Undamaged pieces: Fully tradeable and extremely valuable
• High demand: Many players seek complete Silver sets but few complete them

A full undamaged Silver set is one of the most valuable commodity items in the marketplace.

Combat Considerations

Scenario	Details
Damage reduction	Cuts incoming damage from mobs and players by up to 15% (full set) — the highest armor defense in the game
Unarmored penalty	With no armor at all, the four late-game mob families deal 1.5× damage; any piece removes this
Heat immunity	Does NOT protect from The Dunes heat (heat ignores armor and shield)
Durability drain rate	All worn pieces lose 1 durability per hit simultaneously
PvP readiness	Full Silver set is the highest defense tier — competitive in all content
Partial sets	Still provide their reductions; no penalty for wearing incomplete set
Comparison to Iron	1.5× the damage reduction (15% vs 10% for the full set)
Relics	Every Silver piece is eligible for a Relic from Qadim the Relicweaver
Death	Worn armor is lost on death: it drops into your tombstone in the Wilderness, Emberstone or the Dunes, and is destroyed outright in the Glade Cave

A full Silver set with a Silver Sword and Strength Potion represents the complete end-game PvP loadout.

Set Acquisition Timeline

Progression milestone	Details
Combat 25 required	Before you can equip ANY Silver armor piece
Mining 20 required	Unlock Silver Ore gathering (prerequisite for crafting)
Smithing 24+ required	Begin crafting with the Silver Helmet (24), then Boots (26), Legguards (28) and Body Armor (30)
Complete end-game set	After crafting all 4 pieces
End-game status	Full Silver set is the final armor tier — nothing higher exists

Most players farm Iron Armor first, then transition to Silver farming once reaching Mining 20 and Smithing 24.
