Possible to get Banished Knight armor?

[Ars Nova]

I tried farming these guys for a bit since their armor is some of the best in terms of stats, but the only drops I could get were their helmets, weapons, and shield.

Anyone know if it's even possible to get their body armor?

Yes, it is. I got the torso and legs, but still haven't gotten the gloves.

Drop rate on them must be stupid then, I've been using max item discovery buffs and haven't gotten any of them, but have like 3 of all the items I listed earlier. Thanks.

Yea, the drop rate is painfully low. For defense, it's one of the better sets. For poise.... not so much.

all mobs u see drops what they wear/use, to get them its just farm/rng. arcane boost drop rate from items, and there is an item similar to the one for runes drop to boost too.

Lol, when has poise ever mattered? I feel like it's almost an in-joke between Miyazaki and the other devs at this point.

Not all. Most, but not all. I did some testing on this "offline" and some enemies don't drop their weapon or armor or both. I'm not referring to special/unique weapons and armor, either.

yes all their stuff is acquirable, they have a full set of chest, gloves, boots, 2 different helms, shield, sword and halberd. just sometimes rng isnt your friend. i was trying to get a different armor set and i kept getting helmet, gloves, and boots sometimes and couldnt get the chest piece. took a break for a little bit then came back and couldnt get anything until i finally got the chest piece.
having high arcane helps, or using a silver pickled fowl foot

Yes. I'm wearing a full set for a while now.

Poise doesn't do anything anyway. It may as well not exist.

I got it very early (the chest piece). Been wearing it ever since.

I get poise during charge attacks, and it saved me many times. Of course, dodging is usually safer than tanking, but not always

Thread has already been answered, but I did use max item discovery buffs. I.e. Silver Pickled Fowl Foot, Silver Scarab pendant, Godrick's rune, etc. My item discovery was around 200, which is pretty high.

LOLwut? I guess have fun getting stunlocked when that dodge doesn't quite avoid getting hit.

I bet you think damage negation does nothing, too.

Only time poise matters is when you get a huge poise buff from an attack/ability, to the point you can actually poise through attacks.

Poise and rolls are for entire different things though. Rolls are for avoiding damage entirely, poise for for inflicting damage through an attack, i.e. if you're going to win a trade or can stun-lock someone to death.

That's hyper armor, not poise. You get hyper armor during certain attacks which is unaffected by poise. Even if you're naked, you can still hyper armor through certain attacks.
