Bone Mail is a powerful armor and can be bought during the last Chapter in Baron for 37,500 gil. It provides 18 Defense, 72 Magic Defense, 1% Magic Evasion, -10% Evasion, and prevents Poison. It also strengthens defense against attacks from undead enemies.
Final Fantasy V
Armor fit for a corpse!
Description
Bone Mail is the strongest armor in the game, defensively speaking. It provides a whopping 30 Defense, +10 more than Vishnu Vest, as well as making the user immune to instant death, Poison, Blind, Old, Confuse, and Berserk, and absorbing the Poison element and halving Ice-elemental attacks.
However, the downside to equipping the armor is that the user is also immune to Regen as well as being weak to Fire and Holy-elemental attacks, giving -5 Stamina, and once the user is KOed in battle, they cannot be revived during the fight. Therefore it is advised to equip the Bone Mail with caution.
One is found in Drakenvale, while others are won from Hades or stolen as rare steals from Necromancers.
