Kaziir the Armoursmith

Kaziir the Armoursmith
Role	Armoursmith
Location	The Dunes (East)
Services	Forges iron and silver armor from ingots, Molten Rock, and Brute Horn

Kaziir the Armoursmith is an NPC in The Dunes (East) who forges Kintara's armor. All eight iron and silver pieces are crafted at his window from ingots, Molten Rock, and Brute Horn. The blacksmiths Grimjaw and Harun the Forgewright forge tools and handle repairs — they do not craft armor; Kaziir does.

Dialogue

When you approach Kaziir:

"You found me… few do. I beat plate now, not blades — a sword ends a fight, armour is what walks you out of the sands afterward. Bring me ingots, molten rock and brute horn and I will plate you head to heel: iron first, then silver when your hammer arm has earned it. Every piece you wear widens the shield you carry. But know this before you spend the horn — iron will not sit on you below Combat 15, and silver refuses anyone under Combat 25. Plate is no use to a body that cannot carry it."

(His line about widening your shield is older than the current armor system: armor now reduces the damage you take rather than enlarging your shield.)

Armor recipes

Each piece is forged from ingots, Molten Rock, and Brute Horn, gated on your Smithing level. The craft countdown is 30 seconds per piece.

Wearing armor

Crafting is gated on Smithing, but wearing armor is gated on Combat: level 15 for iron and 25 for silver. A smith below those levels can still craft the plate and trade it on the marketplace.

Armor grants damage reduction, not a shield pool: the full iron set reduces incoming damage by 10%, and the full silver set by 15%.

A player wearing no armor at all takes 50% extra damage from the Venomweaver, Giant Scorpions, King Scorpia and Magma Brutes. Wearing any single piece removes that penalty.

Armor basics

• Tiers: Iron (entry level) and Silver (the top tier).
• Damage reduction per piece: iron helmet/body/legs/boots 2/4/3/1%; silver 3/6/4.5/1.5%.
• Durability: every worn piece loses one point of durability per hit you take, and a piece lasts 2,500 hits.
• Repairs: Kaziir does not repair armor — take worn pieces to Grimjaw or Harun the Forgewright, where a full repair costs 60% of the original materials.
• Selling: armor can only be listed on the Marketplace at full durability; player trades accept worn pieces.
