Dark Souls II Guide: Buying Boss Armor

Maughlin the Armorer at first seems like a wasted effort on From's part to populate Majula's vacant home. He's depressed, anxious, and doesn't really offer any great armor or shields for the player. That's not entirely true. Think of Maughlin the Armorer kind of like Nook from Animal Crossing (what a comparison). That more Souls you spend at his shop, the more he'll have available, even boss armor.
