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 item on the Avatar of Trang-Oul is decent and grants 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 every other item in the set. For example, with Trang-Oul’s Scales, you get +50% Lightning Resistance if you have two other set items. If you have the full set, Trang-Oul’s Scales grant you 25% resistance to physical damage.
Trang-Oul’s 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 weaker items in the Set. Adds a nice boost to Mana using characters, but after level 65, you shouldn’t have any Mana issues. The 25% faster hit recovery mod is nice, but its biggest drawback is that it lacks resistance increases.
Scales of Trang-Oul (Chaos Armor Set)
Defense: 857
Minimum Strength: 84
Level requirement: 49
+150% Enhanced 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 on body armor, but pair it with a good pair of boots that have a nice faster 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 amazing +50% Lightning Resistance.
