  Tier 2 Armor - Swamps

  Alongside gameplay improvements, we're gradually adding new content in preparation for Early Access, which is very likely to launch on November 19, 2026.If you played the demo, you explored the starting area - a relatively calm and forgiving place. The next region - the Swamps - lies beyond the copper mine. There's an outpost blocking the way, and getting past it won't be easy.That may be for the best, because the Swamps are considerably more dangerous than the starting area. The enemies are stronger, the conditions are harsher, but the loot is also much more valuable. And this new armor is one part of that progression.This armor set is directly tied to the Swamp region. Enemies wear it, armor pieces can be looted from defeated enemies, and you can also craft your own set using resources found in the Swamps.For human enemies, we created two main color schemes:Green - local militia, knights, and other more or less organized fighters.Rusty red - local bandits and other shady characters.Each variant comes in leather and metal versions, and the sets themselves are built from multiple layers.

A caster, on the other hand, can get additional elements like robes. And if all the metal pieces are enabled at once, you end up with a fully equipped heavy armored enemy.For human enemies alone, this gives us roughly 8 armor set variants, with some additional customization within each one.But this armor isn't limited to enemies.The player will have their own versions of the same sets - leather and metal - but corrupted to better fit the visual style of Lord of Undead.We've also made two versions for the player's pets. They use the same visual style and materials, but don't wear the full sets - no need to make every skeleton look like it suddenly became a high-ranking knight.So, from this single Swamp armor lineu...
