Ancient Hallowed Greaves

Retro gait armor and altar fabrication

Crafted from 18 Hallowed Bar ingots at a Demon Altar or Crimson Altar, Ancient Hallowed Greaves provides 11 defense. It boosts all damage dealt by 7% and raises movement speed by 8%. Alternatively, players can acquire this piece by transmuting modern greaves in shimmer liquid, gaining access to the legacy visual style without forfeiting equipment statistics or hardmode combat effectiveness.

Set compatibility and tactical mobility

These greaves function identically to their modern counterpart and maintain full set bonus compatibility. Combining them with modern or ancient Hallowed helmets and torso pieces activates Holy Protection, granting a single-hit absorption buff on a 30-second cooldown after striking an enemy. The universal damage increase and swift ground velocity make this piece suitable for any combat playstyle when maneuvering around dangerous bosses and avoiding hazardous projectiles across wide arenas.

Trivia

• Crafted at an altar rather than an anvil, costing 18 Hallowed Bars.
• Provides identical stat bonuses to modern Hallowed Greaves while displaying retro sprites.
