Ghost Armor

The Ghost Armor is the dark stealth outfit Taka made and Yuna gives Jin during From the Darkness. It slows enemy detection, gets you into Ghost Stance faster and makes kills scare nearby enemies, so it fits a hit-and-vanish style.

Set: Armor
Reward: Received during the main story tale From the Darkness.

Stack it with stealth charms if you like clearing camps without a fight. Jin also carries a third, shorter blade on his back while wearing it, though it has no use in play.

Ending dyesSpoilerShow

The Righteous Punishment dye comes from choosing to kill Lord Shimura in The Tale of Lord Shimura, and Vow of Vengeance from sparing him. You can get both on one save: after the credits, abandon the tale from the journal before leaving the hideout, then replay it and pick the other choice.
