This armor and the rest of the suit of this kind including the sword drops off of a named froglok pally in NFP. He drops the entire suit every time he's killed and is lightblue to me at lvl 55. Easy kill.
Ok, total stats wearing the full suit of Shin Initiate Armor and using the Sword are:
-Armguards: AC 5, DEX 1, STA 2, Wt. 3.0 -Boots: AC 4, DEX 1, STA 2, Wt. 4.0 -Bracer: AC 4, DEX 1, STA 2, Wt. 2.0 -Breastplate: AC 12, STR 2, STA 4, WIS 5, Wt. 5.0 -Gauntlets: AC 5, DEX 1, STA 3, Wt. 4.0 -Greaves: AC 6, STA 2, WIS 2, Wt. 3.5 -Helm: AC 5, DEX 1, STA 2, Wt. 4.0 -Blade of Shin Initiate: 8/29 Ratio: 3.625 1HS, Wt. 1.5
-That totals to: AC 42, 5 DEX, 18 STA, 2 STR, WIS 5, and 27.0 Wt. An extra 4 AC, DEX 1, STA 2, 4.0 Wt. for a second bracer. Not bad for a starting frog!
