Many Crimson Desert players are getting lost in the world of Pywell, doing things like watching NPCs or managing inventories, all while killing bosses and recruiting allies to revive the Greymanes. You need a good outfit to go along with your adventuring in Pearl Abyss’ action-adventure RPG, and Redditors are out here posting the drippiest fits around for everyone to consume and copy.
There are likely hundreds of pieces of equipment for you to collect in Pywell. From unique swords and legendary shields to iconic chestplates to rare helmets, Crimson Desert players on Reddit are finding and sharing it all. And in the process, they’re swagging out the playable characters in idiosyncratic garb and familiar cosplay. Redditor frankiexile posted a Jon Snow cosplay, with their Kliff donning what appears to be an archetypal Night’s Watch uniform, replete with an all-black ensemble and a big sword to match. Meanwhile, user Jaycoon335 dressed all three characters–Damiane, Kliff, and Oongka–in more East Asian-inspired outfits with ornate adornments, expensive plating, and gold accents.
Elsewhere in the official Crimson Desert subreddit, users DrGreenThumb117 and MrSkits94 shared Kliffs who look like a human boss you’d see roaming around The Lands Between in Elden Ring. Redditor xehparr posted a red-clad Kliff who’d fit perfectly as a Red Mage in a, say, Final Fantasy XIV party. And posters Agreeable-Wall-9781, ovingzz, and Hor-Re-Behedeti put their Kliffs on display, all of which wouldn’t look out of place inside the fantasy settings of Skyrim and Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon.
Everything any Redditor has shared is totally findable, too. If you browse the comments of those posts, you’ll learn what the pieces are and where to snatch them for yourself. To show up to the Pywell Halloween party as Jon Snow, for example, frankiexile said the Leddic Cloth Armor and the Ynitium Armor are suitable options for that. Xehparr’s Red Mage-looking Kliff–whom they’ve called Igris the Bloodred, a reference to the popular manhwa Solo Leveling–is wearing the Crimson Warden Armor. And MrSkits94’s Kliff, who’s kind of giving a Dark Souls 2 moment, has on the Hernandian Honor Guard Armor. In fact, MrSkits94 is one of the few Redditors who broke down their entire outfit with exactly where they found or who they purchased each piece from. Other posters didn’t share every item their Kliffs were wearing. After all, Crimson Desert isn’t the TikTok Shop or something like that.
Regardless, much like how Fashion Souls reigns in the souls-like community, the fashion community in Crimson Desert is starting to flourish. Call it Crimson Fashion or Fashion Desert; either way, there’s no doubt that we’ll see more outfits as more people play.
And boy, are there people! Developer Pearl Abyss recently announced that the open-world action-adventure game sold over 4 million copies, and just a couple of weeks after launch, the game’s popularity continues to rise as it breaks its own concurrent record. Despite all the success, players are still feeling irritated with the game’s inventory-management system, even though Pearl Abyss released a patch attempting to alleviate these headaches.
