Ironclad Armor

In-Game Description

Armor worn by Ironclad Soldiers.
Provides high defense, but is so heavy that
it requires great strength to move.

The Ironclad Soldiers were minions created
by the Old Iron King, their life granted by
an enchantment of souls.

Once, the Old King could have unraveled the
greater mysteries, with the aid of his great soul,
but he was led astray by his enormous fortune,
becoming nothing more than a vulgar hedonist.

Availability

Ironclad Soldier drop.
