Ancient Greaves

Ancient Greaves are the heavy leg armour reward for destroying the Font of Life during Stronger Than Achilles, in Anca’s questline.

My journey
An exquisite pair of greaves, crafted by a master smith from a century long gone.

Destroy the Font for Ancient Greaves

At the Font, choose destruction to receive the greaves. Letting Coen drink instead grants Font of Life, a perk that regenerates human health outside combat. Letting Anca use the Font is a third choice, with its own conditional shop selection.

Compare the reward choices before deciding: Ancient Greaves provide equipment bonuses, while Coen’s Font of Life perk provides ongoing human regeneration. The linked Font of Life guide explains the alternatives together.

The greaves are Unique heavy leg armour with magic damage, charge restoration from blocks, passive charge restoration and magic damage reduction modifiers.

Charge restoration from blocks and passive charge restoration are separate bonuses. Compare each with your current leg armour when planning a loadout around active abilities.
