Who uses it and why

Pilgrim Pauldrons spreads across 8 classes (Spiritmaster (45), Assassin (44), Chanter (41), Cleric (40), Sorcerer (36), Templar (33), Ranger (32), Gladiator (24)). The split is not even though: lower-ranked characters lean in on Spiritmaster, Assassin, Chanter, each a gap of ten points or more between the bands. All recorded wearers are Light. The item data lists no race lock, and the sample alone does not show why.

Region mix of wearers: Europe 20.7%, NA West 19.3%, NA East 19%, Latin America 19.3%, Asia 21.7%. The sample uses an equal per-region quota, so this mix does not show the real regional player split. Sampled 2026-10-26, confidence Official-sample.

Lower-ranked characters actually wear Pilgrim Pauldrons more often (24.4% vs 0.5% at the top), a gap of 23.9 points that reads like a stepping stone the strongest characters have already replaced.

Wearers do not always outrank non-wearers: on Gladiator the medians read 66,976 vs 77,599, about 10,623 lower for wearers, so this is not a pure power pick.

Across 295 sampled wearers the p25, median and p90 enchant are +0, +1 and +5. The single most common level is +0 (146 uses); even the p90 of +5 sits at half of the +10 cap or below, so wearers rarely invest deep into this piece. Its median of +1 runs about 4.0 under the shoulder slot median of +5, so wearers stop enchanting earlier than usual for the slot.

Dark counterpart: Liberator Pauldrons

Every Pilgrim Pauldrons wearer in the sample is Light. Liberator Pauldrons lists the same base stats (Defense 225, HP 103) at the same grade and level, and its wearers are Dark, so it is the Dark side's version of this piece. They are separate official records with different names, so each keeps its own page.

By class, Pilgrim Pauldrons leans toward Assassin (14.9% against 9.6%), measured as each class's share of all wearers of each version. The sample takes the same number of players from every class but not from every race, so part of this gap is the Light and Dark mix within each class.

Pilgrim Pauldrons wearers tend to run the rest of the Pilgrim set. Share who also wear each piece: Pilgrim Earrings 90.8%, Pilgrim Ring 87.8%, Pilgrim Bracelet 80.7%, Pilgrim Necklace 80%. On the Dark side, Liberator Pauldrons goes with Liberator pieces instead.

How to get it and priority

The official data lists these sources: Quest.

Our read on priority: Worth picking up. Signals in favour: top-two pick in its slot (rank 2); the official data lists a named source; typical wearers stop at +1 of a +10 cap, so it works without deep investment; the strongest 400 characters wear it 23.9 points less than the rest, a stepping stone they replace later.

Editorial. Pilgrim Pauldrons scores 3 points. Score one point each for: top-five rank in its slot, a slot share of 30% or more, being tradable, a listed source, and a median enchant at half the cap or lower; top-two slot rank scores two, and when the top band wears it at least five points less than the rest we subtract one for being a stepping stone. Four or more points is high priority, two or three is worth picking up.
