Desert Prowler armor is a craftable Pre-Hardmode ranged armor set. It requires 6 Stormlion Mandibles and 23 Silk to craft the entire set.

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

The full set grants the following stats and bonuses (this includes the set bonus):

• 6 defense
• Increased ranged damage by 1
• 9% increased ranged critical strike chance
• 20% chance to not consume ammunition
• 10% increased movement speed
• Grants immunity to the Mighty Wind debuff
• Pressing ▼ Down twice in quick succession covers the player in sandy clouds for five seconds. The clouds increase movement speed by a factor of 1.5x, halves aggro, and grants the player immunity to knockback at the cost of 75% of the player's total defense. The cloud vanishes when the player uses a ranged weapon, increasing the damage of the next strike by allowing it to perform a critical strike with 300% damage as long as the damage does not exceed 100. If the aforementioned strike kills an enemy, the cooldown reduces from 25 seconds to 1.5 seconds.

Tips

• The additive damage boost from the set bonus of this armor 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 reminiscent of 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 smoke bomb utility, 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.
