Dark Souls III: How to Get Solaire of Astora’s Armor

Step 2: Trading items with the Crow

Before we can be grossly incandescent, there are a few hoops to jump through, and we’re going to need some items to leave in the crow’s nest to be traded for Solaire’s armor. I’ll list the items in the set and the item you need to trade for it side by side, along with a little description below to show you how to get it.

Iron Helm – Lightning Urn

• Greirat (the vendor locked in a cell in the High Wall Of Lothric) will sell Lightning Urn’s later in the game after sending him on scavenger hunts. Or you can find them at the entrance to Lothric Castle in the late game by jumping off the bridge.

Armor of The Sun – Siegbrau

• You acquire this pint of brew from Siegward of Catarina, Dark Souls III’s very own onion knight. He is located in the tower with the bowman shooting down upon you in the Undead Settlement. Once you’ve found him and have spoken with him, ride the elevator up and roll out of it to a hidden ledge where Siegward will be sitting. Talk to him again and drop down to fight the fire demon and he will come running to your aid. Defeat the beast and he will give you his special mug of beer.

Iron Bracelets – Homeward Bone

• This item is a Dark Souls staple, and you should have some in your inventory through your travels. If not, grab some off the same maiden that you bought the Tower Key from earlier.

Iron Leggings – Seed of a Tree of Giants

• Another item hailing from Dark Souls II, you can find this one at the petrified tree just next to the entrance to the aforementioned tower which we opened. To make the seed drop you need to have been invaded 10 times, so have fun with that.
