Pale Shade Set is an Armor in Dark Souls 3.




 

Attire worn by those who kill in the name of the Sable Church of Londor.  

The Pale Shades of the Sable Church are all undying Hollows, giving rise to much fear and contempt.  

Their fight is one of neither honor nor exaltation, yielding nothing but withered moans.

Gold mask worn by those who kill in the name of the Sable Church of Londor.  

A faint, kindly smile is bound to its surface, giving them the moniker Harlots of Death.  

What lies beneath that expression, however, is nothing more than the face of a darkly shriveled Hollow. (Sneering Mask) 

 




Location/Where to Find

  • After angering Yuria (hit her, kill her,kill Anri's Assassin, etc) or killing Yoel  including the moment you meet him on the bridge you have to defeat the Londor Pale Shade in both Farron Keep and Irithyll of the Boreal Valley (you need to be embered and not have defeated the area bosses in order to be invaded).
  • Farron Keep: go to Farron Keep bonfire, exit and turn right, by the basilisks.  You have to be invaded here first, otherwise you won't get his set. You need to do this BEFORE THE ABYSS WATCHERS.
  • Irithyll of the Boreal Valley: go to Distant Manor bonfire, go through the sewers he will invade on a stairway near a shortcut. Then, if you already killed him at Farron Keep, go back to Firelink Shrine (where Yuria/Yoel were) and the set will be there. You need to do this BEFORE PONTIFF SULYVAHN.
  • Watch Video on how to get the set
  • Rather resembles Mozgus from Berserk [1].





Notes and Tips

  • Gaining the armor on NG+ is recommended to not interupt the Londor quest line requiring Draw out Strength from Yoel by killing him the moment you meet him on the bridge ensuring both envasions when embered.

      So this Wiki is incorrect. It appears you HAVE to fail the Lord of Hollows questline by angering Yuria to even get Londor Pale Shade to invade at Farron Keep. Killing Yoel does NOT cause Londor Pale Shade to invade at Farron Keep.

        Yellowfinger Heysel can invade you at the same place in Farron Keep. So if you got invaded by Heysel first, kill Heysel and then reload the area. Then, Londor Pale Shade will invade.

          I was messing around with armor combinations and found out the Herald armor matches pretty well with the mask and the trousers, at least imo. Replace the gloves with Leonhard's gauntlets and Voilà!

            Five years later and I'm not sure I've ever seen a single person use this set. Once or twice, maybe? This has to be the most obscure armor in the game.

                Unironicaly my favorite set in the entire ****ing game. I love this set. It’s just so good looking. Especially the mask and chest plate. Ahhhhh it’s so goooood :D

                  Changing the model to a full skirt was a terrible artistic decision. Looks perfect in concept art, looks like poo in game.

                    Weird, I killed him in Irithyll and the set didn't spawn where Yoel was.... Really annoying. Yes, I also killed him in Farron and got the claws.

                          Not something I'd ever wear in game though I do like collecting everything, maybe ng+ I'll go through all the shenanigans to get it.

                            Make a new character, locate Yoel. Send him to Firelink, KILL YOEL. Kill Heysel in Crucifixion Woods. Proceed to Farron Keep, kill Londor Pale Shade by basilisks before killing Abyss Watchers. Proceed until you reach Irithyll. Kill Londor Pale Shade again, who invades after the Silver Knight painting room. Go back to Firelink, follow the stench of Yoel's rotted corpse and pick up the Pale Shade Set. Its not that difficult, don't be lazy...this will take about 4 hours if you are only focused on getting this beautiful, frail outfit. Stop asking for handouts and do it yourself.

                              This is a better way: Aggro Yuria by hitting her with something weak a couple of times then run away from her. Get invaded at Farron Keep and at Irithyll by Pale Shade Londor. Then BEFORE the Pontiff Sulyvahn bossfight, go to the statue at the Dilapidated Bridge and pay the fine to stop Yuria being aggroed on you. If you do the bossfight before you pay the Absolution fine, I believe she disappears from Firelink. It's a good way if you like to keep everyone alive at Firelink like I do (except Yoel, of course). Then go and claim your prize next to where Yoel dies.

                                I like the way the set looks overall, but it gives off a girly vibe, which sucks for my male dark sorcerer.

                                  Imagine if the only way to get Brotherhood of Steel power armor in Fallout was to piss their faction off. That's what this set is like, which kinda sucks.

                                    I swear to the Lords of Cinder... I would like to rush through the game and get all the sets and all that, but that's impossible in just ONE run. The problem is that I love having different builds and it takes *****ing forever to have them fully accomplished, so I have almost all my files with a PvP level character and right now I'm making a Hollow build, and I can't have Pale Shade Set without oppressing MY PEOPLE in a veeeeeeery specific way. I thought being friendly towards the Pale Shade I would have gotten the Set somehow, but that's just me jumping into wrong assumptions.

                                      A needlessly hard set to get. Seriously don't know why you can't get this with being Lord of Hollows. Really... come on...

                                        One thing i hate about this & the Sable Church questline is that you must mandatorily accept levels in order to advance. SL 111 is already ideal for me, i don't want to go any higher :/

                                          It's a real pisser you can't get this set by actually allying yourself with the Sable Church. You're one of the members, are you not? Why do you have to anger your patron/pay a crapton of souls to be absolved in order to gain it? Makes no sense ~_~

                                            you should also mention you HAVE to get invaded in farron keep first. If you kill him in irithyll he wont spawn in the swamp. learned that shit the hard way.

                                            • Hey guys. I´m looking to get this armor set but i messed up along the quest (i didnt anger yuria in order to trigger the pale shade invasion in the Farron Keep area and i also ended up killing the abyss watchers which ended up ruining everything i had planned to do with the armor). So my question is this, does anyone have an extra set of this armor lying in your inventory that you wont need? If so would you be so kind as to part with it to me? I´ll gladly give anything in return for this generosity. My psn is Darkanine99 if anyone feels generous enough to part with the extra set. Thank you for your time for reading this, Ashen Ones.

                                              • In the description of how to get it, it says kill yuria and yoel, you can't kill yoel unless you kill yuria, unless they mean that you let him die. If so someone needs to rephrase it

                                                  I think it's a bit strange Pale shade doesn't invade even without having Yuria there.. disappointing at least...

                                                    I hit yuria, ran away (i dont kill her for the ending) and beat every invasion.. Before getting the set, i went to velka for absolution. Then i teleport to firelink and found yuria non hostile.. But i dont find the set, im on ps4. Oh btw i havent update the game yet, maybe i should update the game first? Plz halp

                                                    • You can get this set without ruining any questline. Before defeating abyss watchers aggro Yuria (don't kill her). Get invaded in the swamp by the pale shade and defeat him. Progress through the game normally until you get to Irithyll. Get invaded and defeat him again. After this go to Velka's statue and request absolution. This will "de-aggro" Yuria and will let you continue the questline. You can also get the duel bow gesture by summoning him right before Sulyvahn if you didn't summon him before abyss watchers. (This might also work if you aggro any npc whose aggroing would make Yuria angry but I wouldn't risk it.)

                                                          The mask looks pretty damn amazing, especially if you're a phantom or an invader. A great piece for custom fashion.

                                                            Important info: I was after this set with my last build and got the 5 points from Yoel, killed Yuria right after she appeared in Firelink, got Pale Shade to invade me in Farron Keep but he/she was not invading me in Irithyll. I helped Sirris right in the beginning and as soon as I reached Yoshka's Church, I talked to Anri, got the gesture and killed the pilgrim. When I went to the area of the Pale Shade invasion, nothing happened several times (I kept boning out and coming back and didn't get invaded. The trick seems to be: If you helped Sirris to kill Creighton in her world, you need to be invaded by Creighton in your world and kill him in order for the Pale Shade to invade. Did this and it worked (I almost deleted the character to start over again lol).

                                                            • I got Yoel, killed deacons, got invaded by Heysel at that god-awful swamp, killed Yoel, Anri, and Horace at Firelink, went back to where I was invaded by Heysel, and got invaded by Paleshade.

                                                                I killed Yoel without doing anything with him other than chatting. Was totally unhollowed with 0 dark sigils. Went to swamp and no Shade invasion but Heysel invaded me. Killed her and wandered around a bit, killed stray demon, went back to firelink. Came back to swamp and got invaded by Shade. It might be that Heysel is queued up to invade first, so you have to kill her, then leave and come back. Maybe killing a mini-boss helped trigger something. In any case, all you have to do is kill Yoel to get Farron invasion. Yuria never even made an appearance and Anri is fine.

I killed him and then went to farron keep. didn't get paleshade invasion so i went and got the doll. still no paleshade. Then i killed Horace and Anri at the road of sacrifices and he finally showed up. (caution) you have to do all this while the abyss watchers are still alive. hope this helps because i was starting to worry for a bit there.

A lot of people on Reddit are willing to trade for this set because they actually don't know you can get it without having to level up. Please add it back.

Definitely kill the Pale Shade nonetheless and this set just popped near Yoel's dead body.

                                                                                                • I've killed the assassin, and killed Yuria, but I'm not getting any invasions. I'm assuming you need to have not killed the boss of the two areas in order to get invaded?This should be added to the above if that's the case.
