Superior Ursine Boots

Superior Ursine Boots are the upgraded footwear of the Bear School gear, the third of the base game’s four levels (basic, enhanced, superior and mastercrafted). They are heavy armor built for a tanky build that takes hits and fights back, and their headline bonus is +8% Adrenaline Point gain.

The last base-game step is the mastercrafted version, which needs these as a component, and the line ends with the Grandmaster Ursine Boots in Blood and Wine. Compared with the Enhanced Ursine Boots the armor rating goes from 59 to 69, and they gain an upgrade slot. The rest of the superior set: armor, gauntlets, trousers.
