Perfect

Kaleidocera krakows are footwear that are part of a broader set of kaleidocera equipment. Kaleidocera equipment, including the kaleidocera cape, kaleidocera muffs, and kaleidocera krakows, have some of the highest all-around resistance values of any equipment in the game. Each piece of equipment also grants a bonus to Ego and a small chance to refract light-based attacks.

Kaleidocera equipment can be obtained by butchering the corpse of a kaleidoslug. However, the kaleidoslug has only a 6% chance of dropping a corpse when it is killed. Once a corpse is obtained, butchering the corpse guarantees one piece of kaleidocera equipment, but the specific piece of equipment obtained is random - each has a 1-in-3 chance of being butchered from the corpse.

Advantages and Disadvantages

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.

Despite having the highest resistances of any footwear in the game, along with several other bonuses, the AV and DV values of the kaleidocera krakows (♦1 ○1) may be considered too low for some players when compared to alternative high-tier footwear, like the zetachrome pumps.
