Initiate armour



Initiate armour can be obtained after completing the Recruitment Drive quest by buying it from Sir Tiffy Cashien in Falador. The armour consists of four pieces of plate armour, white with gold trim in appearance. Players often add yellow capes, gloves, and boots from the Canifis clothing shop. They look like a white gold-trimmed armour.

It requires 20 defence and 10 prayer to wear.

This set of armour cannot be made using the Smithing skill. This armour has the same stats as Mithril armour counterparts, but with a prayer bonus. Because of its low cost and high prayer bonus, players often use this set while training on Monkey Guards, Black Demons and Aberrant Spectres as an alternative to Barrows equipment while using the Protect from Melee Prayer due to its extremely high prayer bonus and the fact that Barrows equipment degrades over time (and is expensive to repair).

This armour is also necessary for achieving a medium Falador Task.

A full set of the armour can be stored in the Armour case of a Player-owned house.

Trivia

 * As the set does not have a corresponding shield, the Falador shields are often used to make up for this, suggesting a natural match.
 * There are some speculatons about the possibility that Jagex will be releasing a White Knight counterpart: Elite White Armour. This idea started because the dying knight at the God Wars Dungeon has an Elite Black Helm but is white in colour. Also, since Black and White knights are nearly identical, this makes it quite plausible. Even so, there is no proof of Jagex releasing Elite White Armour in any future updates.
