Much of your character's power lies within Crimson Desert comes from the device. Most of the stuff you'll find early on will be pretty basic, but if you know where to look, you'll be able to get your hands on some unique gear that can take your experience to the next level. In the following items Crimson Desert All can be found within Hernand, the starting province of the game, although for some, you need to do a bit of trekking in the snowy western mountains of Hernand.
Cloister of Destruction Guide in the Crimson Desert
Get ready to fight a pair of Entumbra bosses to unseal the Cloister of Ruination in the Crimson Desert.
shadow armor
Players can obtain all three parts of a Shadow Armor set (ie the chestplate, robes, and boots) without having to fight a single enemy.. All of these pieces are far superior to any armor sold by Hernand's Blacksmith, and they're free, too. Just keep in mind that all of these armor pieces are in the western mountain range – you won't need any cold weather gear, but expect to do a lot of climbing, mountaineering, and horseback riding.
Plate armor of shadow

You can get this chest weapon by opening a chest inside a small cave with a restricted entrance. Go to the map marker mentioned above, then Look for the entrance along the crag near the Everfrost Watchtower. Light the brazier next to the entrance to release the bars, then grab the piece of armor from the chest.
Shadow Armor Cloak

- Refinement: 3
- Fire Resistance Lv 7
The cloak is inside a ruined fortress south of where you found the Shadow Armor chest piece.. Look for the Hoenmark Relics by the river, then go to the map marker shown above. Look for a broken building with a barred door. Go to the roof of that building, then look for a stone section on the floor that looks out of place. Stand on top of it, then punch it with Force Palm. You'll find yourself inside a building, next to a chest Plate Cloak of Shadow.

The boots are inside the waterfall (marked on the map as Frostclaw Cave) down south from the Hoenmark Ruins.

Inside, you'll find a chest containing Shadow Plate Boots.
To get the rest of the pieces, you must finish Chapter 6 of the story and return to the Hoenmark Ruins. Defeat the boss there, and you'll get a quest pointing to a helmet and gloves.

To get it, enter the building through any window on the second floor, then look for a gold chest on the first floor.
Plate Gloves of the Fallen Kingdom

This pair of gloves is great for your health. It increases the healing you get from food, and it also adds more passive HP regen. You can find it inside the cave behind the waterfall west of Hernand.

Odeck's protective plate shoes

- Defense: 5
- Refinement: 3
- Movement Speed Lv 1
- Damage Reduction 1.0
Unlike the boots from the Shadow Armor set, these can be obtained much earlier. Go to the Sanctuary of Temperance southeast of Hernand (South of the Goldleaf Camp where you fight the Hornsplitter in one of the main quests). Once there, look for a small entrance blocked by leaves, next to the floating cube. Once you get close to it, the cube itself will appear on your minimap. Head into the small opening to find a small trove of loot containing Odek's Protector Boots, which will reduce your movement speed and damage when worn.
Oath of the Dark Crop
Despite its fancy name, the Oath of Darkness Earring starts off pretty weak. However, once upgraded, it provides much better stats, including a passive HP regen boost that stacks with other resources. To get it, you need to open one of the strong boxes in Bluemont Manor specifically, It's in the northern building, inside a sturdy box with an owl picture puzzle.
Finely crafted gold necklace
- attack: 1
- Critical rate +1
This necklace is right next to the Oath of Darkness earrings. From North Bluemont Manor, head south to the neighboring building. Enter the second floor from the balcony or any window, then find the strong box with the tumbler lock puzzle. The Finely Crafted Gold Necklace will give your offensive prowess a modest boost by providing extra attack points and some critical hit chance.
The Oath of Darkness and the Finely Crafted Gold Necklace must be stolen from their respective strong boxes. To do so, you must wear a mask – you can buy these from black market vendors, or you can randomly loot them from bandits. Alternatively, request a bounty to capture Geoffrey in Hernand to get a free mask.
gold bar
Inside Lioncrest Manor is a 500 silver gold barAnd you can steal it for some quick and easy money. Go inside the manor (again, through the upstairs window), then go up to the first floor. The fireplace is on the opposite side of the main entrance. Put on the mask, turn off the fire, then hold Ctrl/L1 and inspect the fireplace. Press the steal prompt that appears, and you'll find yourself a gold bar.
Steal the fence just after entering the hallway next to the roving guard on the first floor. This should give you enough time to let the crime/theft meter die down. Once you get the Gold Bar, Don't sell it. Instead, invest in Hernand Bank once you scrape up at least 100 silver to register your own strongbox.
