Despite obtaining a few chests and acquiring considerable money by eliminating pigs, the notable reward here is the exclusive White Undershirt (M) item. Keep an eye out for a particular white pig equipped with this item, who’s immune to various types of damage.

Note:

The White Undershirt (M) carries a familiar MapleStory-style description that reads:

+2 STR S>2m or best offer @@@@@@@@.

This description translates to “top enhancing strength by +2, listed for sale at two million or the best offer.” However, the joke is purely a reference and holds no actual significance. In gameplay terms, this shirt provides only three pieces of armor.
