==Aquiring Unholy Items==
There are multiple pieces of unholy gear from crafting skills, archaeology, and combat. The most powerful ones are listed below.
* Ring of Malice, Grudge Amulet, Consuming shield from the Unholy Forest dungeon.
* Eradication Gloves from the Underwater City dungeon.
It is recommended to acquire the first 3 items as they require a low investment into AoD combat. A brief summary of acquiring them is detailed below:
* Find the Mucky Cave point of interest, then kill Vampiric Bat for Barrier Sapping Gloves and Sapping Barrier gems. (optional)
* Discover Monuments Dig Site for Ancient Stone Tablet.
* Clear Golem Territory and turn in the township task for a Draining Barrier Gem.
* Discover Glacia City Ruins Dig Site for Old Route Chart through Archeology.
* Clear Unholy Forest for Ring of Malice, Grudge Amulet, Consuming shield.
Other unholy item options include:
* Unholy Gem from Archeology as it does not compete as heavily within the gem slot. This item is often worse than Agile/Accuracy gem as those give you a buff for the reckoning prayer.
* The next best item is likely Unholy Ring or Cursed Ring as they have acceptable stats relative to other pieces of gear from their slots.
* The unholy items from the Cult Grounds dungeon are extremely weak and are not recommended.
* Similarly all other pieces of combat or crafted gear which do not have an additional effect are not ideal as they compete with other pieces of gear, and the unholy marks they add are not a desirable tradeoff.

==Unholy Prayer Setups for ToTH Combat==
Coming soon.
Note: Poison pods and Natures Bloom are upgrades over cloudburst with a large amount of accuracy gained from poison gear. This can enable easy manual kills of most ToTH dungeons as manual eating does not disable Archaic Magics as it does with regular spec attacks.
