Lore
Savage Bandits raid mountain hamlets and attack travelers, who specialise in hard-hitting physical attacks, and is great with weapons such as axes and straight swords.
Their equipment offer protection against the blazing sun, dust, and sand, and it helps them tell friend from foe in the heat of battle. The Spider Shield offers good defenses and has excellent poison resistance.
In the Valley of Drakes, the Brigand Set can be found on a bridge filled with Blue Drakes, right at the main entrance to the lost human city of New Londo. The environment in the Valley and outside New Londo can be considered mountainous and harsh: this could be the area were the bandits operated, as it grants the ability to travel quickly between interesting points for them to raid, such as New Londo, Blighttown, Darkroot Garden, and so on.
Their Spider Shield also grants the bandits with a incredibly high poison resistance, hinting possible attacks at Blighttown, or at The Depths. Regarding this last area, it's important to note the presence of a corpse holding this Spider Shield, and near it, a giant rat, with an axe embedded in its left eye. It looks like a bandit died fighting the rat, half-blinding the beast.
