Desert Prowler armor is a craftable Pre-Hardmode ranged armor set crafted from Stormlion Mandibles and Silk.

It consists of a Desert Prowler Hat, Desert Prowler Shirt, and Desert Prowler Pants.

The full set grants the following effects while equipped (this includes the set bonus):

  • +6 defense
  • +1 ranged damage
  • +9% ranged critical strike chance
  • +20% chance to not consume ammunition
  • +10% movement speed
  • Immunity to the Mighty Wind debuff
  • Double-tapping the ▼ Down key covers the player in sandy clouds for 5 seconds. The clouds grant +150% movement speed, -50% aggro, and immunity to knockback, at the cost of -75% defense. Upon using a ranged weapon, the clouds vanish and the next weapon hit will deal 200% damage, as long as the damage would not exceed 100. If said strike kills an enemy, the cooldown is reduced from 25 seconds to 1.5 seconds.

Tips

  • The flat damage boost from the armor's set bonus makes it more effective with fast firing but low damage weapons such as the Minishark, as it will increase the damage by a greater percentage.

Trivia

  • Various aspects of the set are a reference to the Bandit from Risk of Rain 2.
    • The appearance of the armor set is based on the character's appearance, most notably the feathered hat.
    • The smoke bomb's speed boost and disappearance when shooting functions similarly to the Bandit's, and the supercrit and cooldown mechanics function like the Bandit's "Lights Out" special ability.
    • The sound effects related to the smoke bomb are also from Risk of Rain 2.
