Notes

Olthoi Armor was first developed by the Olthoi Hunter of Arwic during A Time of Chaos when the Ancient Olthoi Queen was tunneling to Dereth to kill Asheron. The armor was crafted from the remains of various lesser queen-type Olthoi under the brood of the Ancient Queen. Other olthoi hunters, such as the ones living in a cave in the Paradox-touched Valley that craft weapons also seem to be able to craft armor from the remains of Olthoi. The Arcanum's source for the armor is unknown.
Loot Generated Olthoi armor was introduced in Ancient Powers as part of the new tier of loot. It is only found in the Arcamun's Mana Forges and the society stronghold chests. Its art is based off of the quest Olthoi Armor.
Its armor properties are identical to Covenant Armor - it has high base AL (up to 499), is unenchantable, cannot be tinkered with steel, and requires base defense skills to wield.
Olthoi Armor can only be found in chests or on creatures that drop tier 8 loot
The main material of the armor is metal (gold, silver, steel, and so on)
The armor consists of 9 parts (helm, girth, breastplate, pauldrons, bracers, gauntlets, tassets, greaves, sollerets).
Some parts of the armor are semi-transparent, and take on the color of the underclothes: see the white parts on the images below
When dyeing, the veins stay the original color (see below for dyed variations).
The dye turns the armor into a rather bright variation. Fail dye turns the armor into a bright orange
