About Rock-shell plate
"A sturdy body armour made from rock crab pieces."
| Defence | Value | |---------|-------| | Stab | +82 | | Slash | +80 | | Crush | +72 | | Ranged | +80 | | Magic | -6 |
Requirements: 40 Defence | Weight: 10 kg
| Stat | Rock-shell | Rune Platebody | |------|------------|----------------| | Stab Def | +82 | +82 | | Slash Def | +80 | +80 | | Crush Def | +72 | +72 | | Ranged Def | +80 | +63 | | Quest Req | Fremennik Trials | Dragon Slayer I |
Key differences: - +17 Ranged Defence over rune platebody - No Dragon Slayer I requirement — accessible earlier - Compatible with Ava's device (not a metal platebody) — arrows/bolts are not blocked
Range Tank PvP: The Ava's device compatibility is the defining feature. Players can wear this for melee defence while still benefiting from Ava's ammo-saving effect, making it viable for range tank builds at 40 Defence.
Storage: Can be stored in costume room armour case as part of complete Rock-shell set.
