Ragged cloth with plates to protect the sword arm. It's pretty dire protection, but the wide open mid-section creates an opening that leads to more predictable enemy attacks. It's lightweight and the arm plates on your forward side allow you to adopt some extra skillful combat tactics.
Assassin's Rags
Slot: ARMOR Type: Light Armour


Assassin's Rags are Light Armour that are equipped in the Body Armour slot. It is notable for having 100% coverage for the striking (right) arm only, leaving other parts of the body much less defended. This armor is also notable in that it provides 100% fist protection, making it useful for Martial Arts specialists who have not replaced their limbs with superior Robotic ones.

This armour has inventory dimensions of 6x4.

Appearance[]

Assassin's Rags are depicted as ragged cloths loosely wrapped around the neck and shoulder. The right arm is protected by metal plates strapped over thick cloth, which cover most of the arm. The left arm is slightly less covered with the cloth only covering below the elbow. Leather wrappings covering part of the stomach finish the ensemble off.

Trivia/Notes[]

  • Since its debut, the name of the equipment is misspelled as "Assassins Rags" because the apostrophe is missing on the 's'. This was finally fixed in 0.98.4X.
  • Assassin's Rags has the highest bonus Dexterity, Combat Speed and Attack of any clothing piece. It is tied with Ninja rags for the best dodge bonus as well.
