I can do no wrong, for I do not know what it is

Additional confirmation that breaking this item has no benefit: the dark grenades the skeletons in carthus throw did 127 damage to my character without blindfold mask. With blindfold mask they did 162 damage. After breaking blindfold mask, despite the fact that blindfold mask says "-15.0 dark damage absorption", my character was still taking 162 damage. Thus, the only thing breaking this item does is reduce its other protections, which are already rather lacking.

Submit

This is a part of the antiquated set…yes!???!

Submit

yeah, because streamers are great source for anything, just like wikipedia LMAO. keep worshipping e-celebs, who play games which you don't really own.

Submit

The info is wrong. Even if you break it you will still take same damage. Did the testing myself....

Submit

regarding the line of broken & unbroken, the damage remains the same & the dark absorption on the ITEM ITSELF is reduced to -15%, however under the char status the absorption levels remains unchanged.

Submit

Im going to do pyromencer build waifu. Can i use this mask???

Submit

Breaking it doesn't seam to work any more it show it on the "Blindfold" as -15 but under stats it still say -30

Submit

Unfortunately, this armor is a huge disadvantage in PVP considering half of all players do dark damage. That's not hyperbole. Mages, pyros, dark builds, or just physical builds that buff with human pine resin. So many builds deal dark damage. It's just not worth the tiny extra damage you'll do. Crown of Dusk is some times viable, this just isn't.

Submit

What? There are broken and unbroken versionssss???

Submit

Is the increase in damage worth the nerf in fashion? This thing murders my character's fashion.

Submit

not really much a fookin blindfold if you can fookin see out it

Submit

this is the black witch mask from ds2

Submit

Is it close enough to replicate fire keeper head piece for cosplay build?

Submit

Too much

Submit

What about dark arrows?

On my dark sorceries build, with dark clutch ring, two dragon rings, scholar candlestick WA + izalith staff +5 offhand WA and 45/45, Great Soul Dregs do ~1150 damage on dancer, but with Blindfold Mask added they do ~1500. Meaning there are some sources of increased damage this mask scales with multiplicatively, or the mask lowers enemy resistance instead of increasing player damage.

Submit

"It should be noted that the Blindfold Mask when not broken, gives -30% dark defence, while a Broken Blindfold Mask will give -15% dark defence, the attack buff will remain the same. (A streamer told me and showed me the comparison if you need evidence.)" This is not true, this is mearly a display error on the game's part.

Why tf does a moaning knight (aka Eygon of Carim) have this??? Well im glad you asked (let's pretend you did, ok?)! My best guess is that he gave it to Irina so she'd have a better chance to become a firekeeper but it had quite the adverse effect, making her vulnerable to those little creatures nibbling her flesh (because it makes the wearer vulnerable to Dark and my best guess is that these things are affiliated with darkness).

Submit

While breaking it does display the decrease as -15% instead of -30% when viewing the armor, going into the status tab still says it decreases it by -30%.

Submit

I'm only getting ~5% increase in dark damage. Tested this with a Dark Hand, Crucifix of the Mad King, and Murky Hand Scythe. Will look into this again when I get further into the play-through. I'm going by the numbers listed under "Attack power" rather than actual damage read-outs.

Submit

I don't have the DLC,does anyone have a mask to give me?Contact me,PSN Miky03berna1

Submit

Looking for the mask. Can somebody be able to drop it for me? Psn: BayKedi

It was *****ing annoying to break this thing at Irythill Dungeon just to conclude. The -15 dark absorption reduction, is just visual at the item description. On the stats screen, it still remains -30, no matter what you do. And I don't think this is worth for fashion souls, cause I got almost one shot by a black flame. :(

Submit

great for Bird Box cosplay

Submit

Using this for my persona 5 Joker build looks good.

Dark Souls 3:"T purple steel creation has a certain resemblance towards the Fire keeper's crown, but the similarity is purely cosmetic" Community:"The Moaning Knight is a Fire keeper!" Dark Souls 3: *facepalm*

Submit

had my doubts tbh but it looks surpringsingly good on a pretty face.

Submit

Increases damage from all Dark attacks including weapons (innate & infused).

Submit

Does this item increase the damage that that Onyx Blade do? Or does it strictly boost magical attacks?

Submit

some kinky***** was done with this.
also it doesn't really look good ingame unfortunately, because your character is most likely(almost impossible to make a decent looking character) not looking very good

Submit

Looking for a mask. I forgot to kill the moaning knight, what do you need? Password Sad, PSN Shredder975.

Anyone have a spare they will trade for something If so message me on xbox live xXLucasLycisXx

In dark souls 2, this mask was known as "domino mask" and belonged to the witch Zullie. The DS2 item description went thus:
"Domino mask worn by Zullie the Witch, seducer of Alva the Wayfarer. Strenghtens magic attacks but reduces max HP.
When Zullie the witch learned of Alva's dedication to Saint Serrate she used all manner of tricks and deceit to ruin him, but in the end she would spend her life with him, supporting his endeavors."

It appears that Zullie was interested in beguiling holy, faithful knigts who dedicated themselves to maidens. Eygon was also a Carim knight who served Irina, which would give Zullie incentive to follow him. If we assume that the Moaning Knight is indeed Eygon, it would make sense that Zullie approached him at some point and gave him this mask. I can't draw any lore connections more than this, but it's interesting to note that Irina was angling to become a firekeeper - and although the mask resembles a firekeeper's crown, it also strengthens dark and has cracks which allow sight - both in direct opposition of a firekeeper's character i.e. to 'embrace the dark' (not strengthen it) and 'be stripped of vision'.

I'm in need of this.... anyone on ps4 want to trade me something for it? Smellerbee2000

Submit

It increases inherent Dark damage on weapons, though not by much. Weapon buffs that add Dark damage are increased as well.

I made a video that proved it.

Submit

I'm not 100%, but I don't think this buffs any of the Frayed Blade's attacks.

Submit

Can confirm that if you buff a weapon with Dark Blade, while wearing Blindfold Mask, damage form attacks is increased.
Blindfold Mask + Dark Clutch Ring gives a 25-30% increase to damage dealt with a weapon buffed with Dark Blade.

Submit

It increases Dark Spell damage by ~10%, and increases the AR of the Dark part ny ~5%; for instance, for a Dark Longsword with 100 physical AR and 300 Dark AR, it would ends up with 100 physical AR and 315 Dark AR. The damage amplification effect works in the same way for both PvE and PvP.

Submit

This item increases ALL dark dmg not just spells.

Submit

I'm pretty sure this is part of the "antiquated plain set", just like the crown of dusk is part of the "antiquated set".

Use alongside "antiquated plain garb", "shadow gauntlets" and "shadow leggings" for fashion souls.

Submit

i went back to kill him, so i could go to ng+ but he wouldnt spawn.
I think maybe he only spawns if you have not killed a certain boss yet.

Submit

Kind of dissapointed its not as rare as ds2... I was the only one I ever sw wearing it in all my 1000 hours

Submit

"Do you wish to guard the bell ?"

"Nah that sounds pretty lame, we're gonna pass."

"YOU GONNA REGRET THAT!"

Submit

*Dark Souls 2 Flashbacks* Those bloody Bellwatchers....

Submit

So, the moaning knight fell off of the ledge and I was rushing through the area. I've died about 20 times since then. Other than having another player drop it for me, will the mask still be there?

Submit

It's Zullie's domino mask. Compare it to the DaS 2 item itself. Zullie has quite a bit of story bits to this entire dlc so far

Submit

This thing boosts the strength of Dark Blade as well. Great to stack with dark clutch ring. My Sharp Murky Hand Scythe +10 has an AR of 316. With the blindfold mask 319, with the clutch ring 328. Now when I buff it with Yorshka's Chime+10 (spell buff 263) the AR goes to 599 1h 603 2h. Without the ring and mask, and just dark blade: 540, with just the mask 554, just the ring, 582.

Submit

It only improves dark spells, not any weapons sadly.

Submit

Blindfold mask, dark clutch ring, witch's ring and greatswamp ring.
Can you feel the black flame?

Submit

I can't edit the page, but it adds roughly 10% more damage to Dark Magic. I got ranges between 11% and 9% so it's never exact. :/

Submit

I was thinking of using this with the antiquated plain set. That doesn't have a headpiece, and the colours seem to work together, although I guess it doesn't make much sense to use this if you're not using a dark build.

Submit

Submit

Welp. Time for cosplay. "Your Waifu" the pyromancer lives!

Submit

So this would basically be a dark version of the crown of dusk? If it becomes mandatory for dark builds let's hope at least it looks better x_x

Submit

This headwear had to give a huge dark malus in return, jeezus.

TIME FOR FIREKEEPER COSPLAYYYYYYYYYYY

Oh please be the Firekeeper's crown...
