Mythril Armlet

A Mythril Armlet is a Bracelet-class piece of armor found in Golden Sun: The Lost Age. It is acquired by giving a Mythril Silver to Sunshine the Blacksmith in Yallam, where he will randomly forge it into either that or four other items. Visually, the Mythril Armlet resembles a metal armlet with a pair of rubies set into it.

The Mythril Armlet features a defense rating of 46, and it increases the wearer's Critical Hit and Unleash Rate by 10%. It is bought for 9700 coins while its resale value is 7275 coins. As a Bracelet, it is only wearable by four Adepts: Ivan, Mia, Jenna, and Sheba.

At first glance, this seems like a good strong piece of handwear to equip on a magic-centric Adept that can also physically attack quite well, because it has a higher defense rating than any other bracelet and has a very good effect of a 10% increase to Unleash rate, but in a perfect game this is ultimately a placeholder to a hand armor that does exactly what the Mythril Armlet does but better: the Riot Gloves. These gloves can be equipped by all Adepts, have a defense of 45 (the one-point difference is negligible), increase Attack by 15, and increase Critical Hit and Unleash rate by 20%. It can be viewed quite simply as an upgrade to the Mythril Armlet, so if an Adept is wearing this armlet for the purpose of attacking better, it is definitely recommended to try for an additional pair of Riot Gloves later on to replace the armlet.
