Getting the Vulture Armor Set in Divinity: Original Sin 2

Divinity: Original Sin 2 encourages exploration and loot collection, and one of the most sought-after gear sets is the Vulture Armor. This armor not only enhances your character’s abilities but also comes from the quest Keep Calm and Carrion, where players are tasked with collecting five unique pieces.

The Vulture Armor is particularly beneficial for ranged characters using finesse, making it ideal for rogues as well. To begin your journey, first locate a book titled Dwarven Customs and Traditions, found in Judge Orivand’s study at Fort Joy. This book provides essential guidance on how to craft the Vulture Armor.

How to Obtain the Vulture Armor Set

1. Defeat the Guardian of Powerful Gear

Your next objective within the Keep Calm and Carrion quest leads you to Reaper’s Coast, specifically at coordinates X:218, Y:33. To summon Duna’s Undertaker at Mordus’ Excavation Site, you need to craft a Source Infused Meat by combining Raw Mutton, Source Orb, and Earth Essence.

When summoned, Duna’s Undertaker proves to be a formidable opponent. Not only does it fight fiercely, but it also calls forth Decomposing (Undead) Dwarves to assist in battle. Each summoned enemy wields potent lightning-based attacks that can quickly overwhelm an unprepared party.

Tip: It’s best to be at least Level 15 before facing Duna’s Undertaker and its minions. Familiarize yourself with Mordus’ Excavation Site, as the battlefield has numerous environmental elements that can be used strategically by both sides.

Once you’ve triumphed over Duna’s Undertaker and its cohorts, you will receive Cursed Vulture Feathers, the crafting component required to create the Vulture armor set. To eliminate the curse, drop the feathers on the ground and cast Bless on them. Alternatively, you can bless the armor once it’s crafted and equipped.

In order to craft the Vulture set, combine the Vulture Feathers (whether cursed or cured) with leather armor. The pieces required are:

• The Vulture’s Talons (boots)
• The Vulture’s Legs (leggings)
• The Vulture’s Mantle (chest armor)
• The Vulture’s Mask (helmet)
• The Vulture’s Claws (gloves)

While you can wear individual pieces, equipping the entire set grants significant bonuses. These include permanent flight, +4m range for ranged attacks, immunity to Blinding, increased damage on hit, as well as access to the Vulture’s Prayer and Dust Blast skills. Although not the absolute best armor in Divinity: Original Sin 2, the unique benefits make it well worth pursuing.

Peaceful Acquisition of the Vulture Armor Set in Act 2

2. Avoid a Dangerous Fight by Speaking Wisely

Interestingly, you can get the Vulture Armor without combat with Duna’s Undertaker by opting for diplomacy. Instead of resorting to battle, you can appease the Undertaker by following specific actions outlined in the previously mentioned book.

Find the excerpt detailing how to placate Duna’s Undertaker in the Witch House located north of Driftwood at X:367, Y:227. Here, you’ll learn the order of actions required for negotiation.

When interacting with Duna’s Undertaker, choose these dialogue options:

1. "Tell the creature that you are here to receive this blessing."
2. "Bow with your arms outstretched."
3. "Quietly request its blessing."
4. "Say that you intend to save the souls of the fallen."

If executed correctly, your party will gain Blessed Vulture Feathers, which are also used to craft the Vulture armor set, but without any curse attached. Given the full potential of the Vulture armor set in Divinity: Original Sin 2, this peaceful approach is significantly easier as it spares you from the challenge of a tough confrontation.

The Captain Armor Set in Divinity: Original Sin 2

Combat plays a crucial role in Divinity: Original Sin 2, and the protective qualities along with unique abilities of the Captain Armor set are highly sought after by various characters. This set, which is part of the Four Relics of Rivellon free DLC, introduced four new armor styles. One of these sets provides a special item that can charm enemies, offering you a fresh approach to securing victory in battles.

You can acquire the Captain Armor Set through the quest titled “Threads of a Curse.” This set consists of three pieces of Captain Sech Zapor’s attire, which can be gathered during the game’s first act. By collecting all three components, you will unlock the ability known as Tyrant’s Charm, allowing you to charm enemies—a particularly useful skill as the game progresses.

How to Obtain the Captain Armor Set

Explore the Initial Major Area in the Game

The quest "Threads of a Curse" unfolds within or around Fort Joy, marking the beginning of your adventure in Divinity: Original Sin 2. There are several ways to encounter this mission, as the game supports various play styles, but this method is among the simplest to complete the quest.

To find the pieces of the Captain Armor set, you will need to visit three specific coordinates within the early game area. Start by looking for an Odd Skeletal Arm protruding from the sand at coordinates (X: 362, Y: 81). This arm will indicate a direction to follow as you hunt for the armor.

You can pull the arm from the ground; when dropped, it continues to point in the same direction, guiding your party toward a treasure chest.

As you proceed, you’ll eventually discover a chest encased in a purple dome at coordinates (X: 535, Y: 23). Be cautious, as the chest curses anyone who approaches it. You can dispel the curse by casting Bless. Interacting with the chest introduces you to Captain Sech Zapor, from whom you can initiate the "Threads of a Curse" quest. If you’ve previously completed the "Vault of Braccus Rex" quest, you can persuade Zapor using the Soul Jar you acquired in that mission.

Upon deciding whether to assist or confront Zapor, you will take your first steps toward locating the entire Captain Armor set. Each of the three pieces is located in different spots, typically revealed by Zapor or hidden in chests. Here’s where to find each piece:

Captain Armor Pieces Locations

Gathering every piece of the Captain’s armor will reward you with the Tyrant’s Charm upon completing the "Threads of a Curse" quest. This ability gives you a chance to pacify foes, causing them to attack their allies instead of your team—a particularly strategic advantage in challenging encounters.

Keep in mind that the charm only works on enemies without magical armor, and the target must be nearby for it to activate. Once mastered, the Tyrant’s Charm makes the endeavor to collect all pieces of the Captain Armor set unquestionably worthwhile in Divinity: Original Sin 2.
