The Trang-Oul Avatar is a 5-piece set designed for use by a Necromancer. However, any class can use the helm, body armor, gloves, and belt, but only a Necromancer can use the class-specific Shield. Unlike other sets, each individual Trang-Oul Avatar item is decent and gives relatively good bonuses.
Here are the five elements and their individual analysis in the Set:
Note: The partial bonuses for each item are listed multiple times because you get a partial bonus for each of the other items in the set. For example, with the scales of Trang-Oul, you receive +50% lightning resistance if you have two other items in the set. If you have the full set, the Scales of Trang-Oul grant you 25% resistance to physical damage.
Trang-Oul Appearance (Bone Face Set)
Defense: 180-257
Minimum strength: 106
Level requirement: 65
25% faster hit recovery
Replenish Life +5
+80-100 Defense
+150 mana
Attacker takes 20 damage
Analysis: One of the weakest elements in the Set. It adds a nice boost to Mana using characters, but after level 65, you shouldn’t have a problem with Mana. The 25% faster hit recovery mod is good, but its biggest drawback is that it lacks any resistance increases.
Scales of Trang-Oul (Chaos Armor Set)
Defense: 857
Minimum Strength: 84
Level Requirement: 49
+150% improved defense
Requirements -40%
Run/walk 40% faster
Poison resistance +40%
+100 Defense vs. Missile
+2 to Summoning Skills (Necromancer only)
Lightning resistance +50% (3 items)
Damage reduced by 25% (full set)
Analysis: Chaos Armor generally has a very high Strength requirement, but the -40% Requirements mod makes this armor more accessible. 40% faster run/walk is rare for body armor, but pair it with a good pair of boots that have a nice run/walk bonus and you’ll be flying all over the place. Add to that a very nice +40% to Poison Resistance and +100 Defense against. Missile, and you have decent armor. Use two other items and you’ll even get an incredible +50% lightning resistance.
