Berserker's Exalted Coat

Berserker's Exalted Coat hangs heavy with crimson, a coat that looks like it swallowed a raid and wore its memory. The leather is a deep, burnished red, supple yet stubborn, with panels that sit in overlapping whispers along the torso and shoulders. A ring of dark metal plates glints at the chest, barely visible beneath the lacquered sheen, as if the garment had learned to steal light from the air itself. The fur collar—winter-white, touched with frost blue—frames the neck and gives the coat a wary, almost animal grace. Along the hem, sigils etched in gold thread glow faintly when magic stirs nearby, as if the garment remembers the hands that forged it. Its weight is reassuring, not oppressive; it moves with the wearer, not against them, like a loyal companion that knows the rhythm of a fight before the first clash rings out. Lore speaks softly of a lineage tied to the Berserker orders, those who walked the line between frenzy and focus. This coat is said to have been woven at the edge of a battlefield where fear tasted the air and courage washed the ground in brighter heat. The crest at the shoulder—a stylized maw, teeth bared in a perpetual snarl—isn’t merely decoration. It’s a reminder of vows made in the roar of a crowd and the hush between two strikes. Craftmasters whispered that the Exalted tag marks a piece that has endured trials beyond the reach of ordinary armor—dusk-lit rituals, campfire oaths, and the patient care of smiths who understood that power sometimes demands restraint. When worn, the coat feels less like armor and more like a pact: you give your heart to the fight, and in return, the garment lends you the courage to meet it head-on. In gameplay terms, the coat is a beacon for offense-first builds. It’s tuned to favor Power, Precision, and Ferocity—the signature trio of Berserker potency—shaping every swing, every crit, every decisive moment when the fight hinges on a single, flawless landing. Players tell stories of raids where a single charged hit from a Greatsword or an Axe handles the opening act, while the Exalted coat ensures the leap from opening strike to finishing blow lands with deliberate gravity. Its enchantment makes critical hits feel earned, the kind that echoes through the party as everyone recalibrates for the next burst. Yet the price of such speed is a softened edge against sustained punishment, a reminder that glory rarely comes without a touch of risk. Market chatter threads through the tale as well. In markets that braid caravans with coin, Saddlebag Exchange becomes the narrator of the coat’s journey, a place where seasoned traders haggle over its rarity and the weight of its legend. I watched a seasoned dealer peel leather from a roll of time-worn maps and lay it beside a gleaming shard of ore, bargaining until the sigils on the coat hummed in approval. The price isn’t just gold; it’s the currency of risk, of crossing deserts and storm-lashed ships to claim a piece that carries a story as keen as the blade it pounds. In that exchange, the Berserker's Exalted Coat stops being a mere chest piece and becomes a chapter in the ongoing epic of those who chase the next roar of victory.
