Wyrmscale
Breathe fire.
Set bonuses
Wear 2, 3 or 5 Wyrmscale pieces and each tier below switches on. They add up: at five pieces you have all three.
- 2+25%
health. You are immune to
burn. - 3Every 3rd turn, breathe fire: every enemy takes 60% of your
power +
arcana and 2
burn. - 5Your strikes deal +40% damage to burning enemies.
The fine print
- 2 pieces. Enemy burns never land on you, and any burn you carry is put out.
- 3 pieces. On turns 3, 6, 9 and so on, every enemy takes 60% of your power plus arcana as fire, ignoring armor, and 2 burn.
- 5 pieces. Your strikes deal 40% more to an enemy that is burning.
How it plays
The game's own set card sums Wyrmscale up in three lines:
Fire breath every third turn. Burn-proof.
- Strong against: Burners and Avarax's Scorch.
- Weak against: Golems and Heavies between breaths.
The set stat
Every Wyrmscale piece has one stat, its set stat, that is multiplied by how many Wyrmscale pieces you wear. Two pieces double each one's set stat, five pieces count it five times. That is why a third and fourth piece are worth more than their own numbers suggest. See how sets work.
Pieces
Nine pieces: one for each of the seven slots, a second weapon and a second ring (you wear two rings). Stats shown are Common, found on floor 21.

| Head | +97 +97 +6% | +6% | |
| Neck | +97 +15% | +15% | |
| Chest | +259 +259 | +259 | |
| Weapon | +162 | +162 | |

Synergies
Two pieces of Wyrmscale with two pieces of another set wake a synergy:
- Dragonhoard with Kingsguard: Fire breath also restores
armor equal to 5% of your gold. - Wyrmfire with Emberforged: Your
burn deals +50% damage.
Finding it
Wyrmscale pieces appear from floor 21 on, in The Hoard Heart and below, which is part of the full game. Loot leans toward the sets you already wear: each Wyrmscale piece on you makes the next one more likely, and while you wear two or more the floor market and the merchant offer a piece you are missing. Winning 12 battles with two or more Wyrmscale pieces on opens Kingsguard.
