Armor | Elden Ring Wiki

I enjoy how unique and goofy these sets are.

Submit

ah yes, the armor sets where you skin malenia and godfreys hair from their scalps and wear it for a sweet sweet boost in defense

Submit

Elite knight, Giant, Havel, Black Iron, Black Witch, Velstadt, and much more.
DS1 had a lot of great looking sets, DS2 had TONS of great sets, DS3 mostly reused previous games sets.
Now what? I struggling to find ANYTHING decent looking, there is like one or two okayish armor sets for every weight class.
It felt like FROM burned out of ideas for armor designs.

Submit

It seems they left out Radahn's set altogether...

Submit

i like the prisoner class a lot and im sad there isn't more armor sets like the high page or the mirrah set from ds3 that give u a more distinguished musketeer-ish vibe.

Submit

I feel like the strongest sets that I have analyzed are either an ok look or down right horrendous and i feel like its unfair because you get cool armor sets with bad stats so why not do the same with SOME of the strongest ones NOT ALL OF THEM, SOME OF THEM

Submit

Why is the Carian Knight pic so blurry?

Submit

I wanted to roleplay as a barbarian exclusively wearing rags, but the closest thing to that is the Champion set. Quite disappointing with the lack of variety there.

Submit

Wish you could change the color on these like how you can in botw

Submit

dear god almost everything looks like ****

Submit

Imo, DS2 and ds3 have better fashion, feels like there is less variety and that a lot of the armor feels less special since you have to grind most of it, Personally I would like some better "cleric" robes like Irina's set or the dingy set from ds2

Submit

most of these are ugly as **** lol

Submit

use morgots robes fire monk hood and radahns gloves and leggings for a pretty cool look

Submit

Need DS3's Fallen Knight set.

Submit

I want something similar to Zullie's the Witch and Karla's sets if there is a DLC, the lack of cool witchy sets besides the Ranni one is a bit disappointing.

Submit

I wish more of the metals on the armor sets matched

Submit

I’m probably in the minority but imo DS armors including Demons Souls and BloodBorne looks so much better than Elden Rings. I hope dlc gives us nicer looking stuff

Submit

Anyone done an ornstein cosplay yet?

Submit

Hope they add the ability to upgrade armor in a DLC. Could maybe help with some of the endgame damage. Don't think it's gonna happen, though.

Submit

Even after the rebalance theres still so few sets between 51 and 71 poise. So if you want poise youre pretty much committing to going a complete super heavy set or at least matching in some of the bulky pieces that just don't mesh well with other sets. Theres a ton right at 51, but thats not really a significant poise checkpoint. I feel like all the "knight" sets should have had like 66 poise with a bit more weight if anything, but they only have a few points of poise more than the footsoilders when you compare.

Submit

I hope DLC has some more Good Guy Paladin looking armor sets instead of just the edgy kind

Submit

Not enough sets.

Submit

I wish there was an equivalent to the Masters set like in ds3, Wearing literal strips of torn up cloth

Submit

Great survey. What I really miss in game is the possibility to swatch the stats from one armour to any other. Also hiding helmets would be needed. Why create a character if it's never been seen at all?

Submit

Probably the best armor sets in any Souls game, except for the helms (and even then, there are some that are exceptionally good). With that said, armor is largely pointless here, so instead of having some armor be potentially better than others, now ALL armor is kind of trash in the name of "muh fashion" but STILL requires END investment to even properly use some of them. Given how bloated damage gets late game, ER could have seriously brought back armor upgrades from Dark Souls 1 and probably would have been better for it instead of forcing everyone to jack VIG to 50-60 for every build.

Submit

I really miss the armor foley sounds from DS1, it sounds so meh in elden ring

Submit

I know it's always done for balancing reasons but god I wish all armor sets had higher defense values that actually felt like they had some meaning. Even with the stats as they are, some sets are just done dirty in defenses despite the physical appearance covering plenty of the player's body from harm in scales, chain or plate.

Submit

Please list the armors in the same order as the game.
How about a list of helms, armor, arms and leg pieces in the order as listed by the game.

Submit

What should i do for an Abyss Watcher ?

Submit

How are you gonna put them in alphabetical order rather than the order they appear in you're inventory like you did for every other weapon, spell, cookbook ect. on this website.

Submit

I miss cool ass black knight armors that are well adorned but not too much like the old dragon blood set from souls.

Submit

A lot of these armor sets would look so much better if they didn't have that skirt thing

Submit

Problems with armor in E.R

Almost every set comes from an enemy you see in game. For example the Radahn soldier set.

This actually clashes with role play because why would your character be wearing a set of armor that signifies their allegiance to radahn?

Second, there’s barely any realistic looking armor sets.

Third, there’s a severe lack of clothing type armor sets. The only **** (non garb/robe) in the game is the prisoner shirt, which looks terrible.

Submit

Heavy armor selections so dismal. The top 3 are so incredibly ugly compared to the Heavy sets in Dark Souls.

Bill-Goats may be the worst looking set they have ever created. Hope DLC fixes this. There’s TONS in Dark Souls.

Submit

wish there were more realistic knight armors like the chain set. the bloodhound bascinet is an attempt but looks weird and the drake sallet is so butchered I mean they added an armor alteration system yet didnt make any good use of it

Submit

Farmed every armor in this game in less time than it took me to farm heirs of the sun medals for sunlight spear in ds2

Submit

does anyone know what armor set has the highest absorption per weight for physical damage?

Submit

This list about attire is great! I use it the attire time, it is the Ever Made!!!

Submit

Bloodborne and DS2/3 are games with many cool armors but unfortunately it's not the same case with Elden Ring. The game indeed have some cool outfits, but almost everything is endgame loot and this is sad :( Also, the coolest sets are V-E-R-Y heavy.

Submit

I can't be the only one who finds the attire selection abysmal am I?

Submit

Does anyone know a better resource to see all S tier sets as of patch 1.8 , I currently am using the Tree Sentinel set and wondering if there is better.

Submit

Man I just want a short skirt + boots legwear in this game and most of my Elden Bling characters would be complete.

Submit

Error in this page's Fia's Set description. It calls her a deathbed champion, when it should be companion.

Submit

The picture for the raging wolf set looks kinda funny on this page where every other set's picture is very normalized.

Submit

Any ideas for an abyss watcher cosplay?
thx

Submit

duelist helm + champion chest piece + radahn gauntlets and leggings looks ****in sick

Submit

Burial watchdog mask in the DLC or riot.

Submit

Beast Master Chest and gauntlets have a nice combo with the Kaiden Helm and any silver boots of you choice (Cape off of course)

Submit

I'm partial to Maiketh's gauntlets and pants, with the Axe Crucible Knight Chest, and the Fire Monk hood. Very fun if you go big red beard and Chaos Flame ending.

Submit

Best fashion is no fashion except for goofy hats.

Submit

except three or four of them, armor sets here look awful

Submit

i know this has been stated multiple times but we absolutely need an Elden Bling page

Submit

There is 1 armor set that is either unknown to wiki or it just does not drop as a set.

1. Go to Nokstella, Eternal City Grace
2. Face East, look up - there is a ladder to climb up on the other side
3. Go through the cave to find a 3way, kill 2 ants and 1 bighead ant
4. Turn Right (South) until you find two guys on a cliff

Their armor looks unique. It is not an armor set I can see otherwise - it seems to be their very own armor set.
I don't know what these guys are called, they use gravity stones when attacking you and do drop gravity stones

Anyone have any luck with these guys and find something out, hollar back

Submit

What would be a good Ringwraith look?

Submit

For my fashion souls I decided to try to make something that looks good in this game. As in ds3 I decided to dress as a plant monster... It was beautiful. I want a more rogue appearance in ER though so I got Black Hood, Raptors Black Feathers, and the Fire Monk Gauntlets and Greaves. I know metal armor usually isn't a rogue thing but I am ng+7 and heavily appreciate any extra absorption I can get, plus it actually looks pretty nice to me anyways. So I am gonna keep it.

Submit

Distinctive lack of stone armor. Havel would be disappointed

Submit

DSK2>1>ER>3 armor wise

Looking back, fashion souls is TOUGH in this game.

I think they didn’t put much design into how players choose their armor according to the stats (mostly poise), while having options for looks.

I’m not sure what this hierarchy of stats in the armor is based on.

Not talking ****, just something I thought about.

Submit

The thing I love the most in souls games are honestly the armors sets, like it's easily the thing that motivates me the most here. For some reason I feel Elden Ring kinda lacks of good looking armors set, while this is debatable since we all have different tastes, I'm still convinced that the game needs a lot of good armors. I mean, I do love lots of sets here like Malenias, Alberich set, Raging Wolf, Night's Cavalry, Hoslow set, the Ronin hat, Blaidds armor, Crucible Knights and a couple more but honestly I like them like B tier if I can describe it like that? I only like 2 armors as A tier of good looking armors, compared the Dark Souls armors I used to love almost every set lol, I'm really looking forward for Elden Ring Dlcs, I wouldn't mind at all having some of the nostalgic armors back like Ornstein, Artorias, Havel etc. but I kinda feel childish asking for that you know? I don't mind not having them as long as there are better looking armors but huuuh you know what I think about it, dam even the iron Dragonslayer armor was my personal favorite on Dark Souls 3! I just haven't get that awesome feeling of having an armor that I'm obsessed with, maybe I'm asking too much but it's what I wish for and I'm willing to support the game buying Dlcs for it, aside from that... 0 complains about the game, the abilities, sourcery, weapons skills are amazing as ever, maybe it's not very balanced but with some skills you can still kick the asses of those spammers playing in groups, I can assure you that.

I'd like to know what people thinks about this topic bcs I feel like I'm the only one feeling like that lol anyways I still enjoy and keep playing the game, happy adventures everyone.

Submit

They need to add being able to change armor colors as dlc content

Submit

Trash game, can't wear Radagon's sexy clothes.

Submit

The deathbed set needs to be added, cant for the life of me figure out how to edit it tho, do you need to be VIP? Im already signed in and everything.

Submit

How would I do a Link (TLoZ) outfit? I don't care which Link, they're all good, but if it matters the build is going to be based of OOT adult link

Submit

any cosplay for the 4 knights of gwyn?

Submit

No matter what set i grind, its always the bloody pants that take hours to get. I can get gloves, helmet, chestpiece, within like 30-40 minutes but pants always take atleast a hour to get. Hell in Dark souls 3 it was also like that, and it carried over to elden ring. Why miyazaki, why am i cursed to grind pants for however old the erdtree is, grind longer than the first flame exists, no matter the game.

Submit

Best fashion w/ 62 poise is Banished knight helm unaltered + haligtree surcoat + bull goat greaves and gauntlets. Add spiral horn shield and claymore and you’re drippen.

Submit

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

havel's armor no exist.bad game.i wants to cosplay da boulder boi

Submit

I really wish they had a ninja armor set. They literally have a ronin, and samurai set

Submit

Briar, Bloodhound, and Fingerprint sets are my favorite. I would like the Scaled set to have a closed helmet variant. I would also have liked a barbed cape alteration for the Briar set, that would have looked wicked.

Submit

I know this isn’t really a Fromsoft thing to do, but I really hope that they might add layered armor to the game. It should be disabled in multiplayer, obviously, but there are sets that I like so much better cosmetically but don’t fit my build at all. I don’t actually expect them to do this, but I can hope. This is From’s biggest game, and armor alterations, though limited, are a thing. So I’m hoping. Just not a lot.

Submit

No Ornstein or Artorias set :(

Submit

lol it seems i have nearly every armor in the game

Submit

WHAT IS THE MOST SEXY ARMOUR?

Submit

What armor set looks the most like Nine-Ball from Armored Core?

Submit

i wish armor was upgradable so i could were my favorite sets without worrying about my defense

Submit

You cant skin Elden beast and wear it as armor -99/10

Submit

So many armor pieces i would like more but there's always 1 small detail that i dont like, for example hair that comes with helmets. It would be a great opportunity to make alterations that remove hair or beard out of helmets....

Submit

My curse is that most of my favorite sets are at the end of the game, my blessing is that my favorite set is confessor's. I don't care if I'm building a mage, I will start as a confessor.

Submit

they did light armor dirty in ER, heavy armor is just so much better

Submit

Too bad there's not more green knight/plant themed armor

Submit

Wish there was more green armor

Submit

WOOOOOH I'm halfway there!

Woooha i don't wanna farm Gladiator in ng+...

Living on a prayer!

Submit

I've gotten a helm from one of the frozen ghost knights at castle sol but I don't see it here on the list...am I just missing it or what gives?

Submit

Night's Cavalry armor + Lionel's greaves, trust me.

Submit

Maliketh's set and Knight cavalry set is fire

Submit

Joshua graham, bloodsoaked helm and gauntlets, still figuring out what torso and legs should be, we shall see

Submit

what would you guys recommend for an abyss watcher cosplay?
thx

Submit

Fill in all the empty places of the map with enemies that drop new armor. Make some better light and heavy armors, add more variety of capes and Headwear. Incorporate the animals and beasts in the game with the armor more.

Submit

I hate poise

Submit

From Software carefully crafting the ugliest armors I've ever seen. The true peak was the DS2 era. It only goes downhill from there.

Submit

90% of the armor in the game can't even tank a hit from small weapons without bullgoats talisman. just why...

Submit

I don't understand why the fully modelled and functional sets that were in the game at release but unobtainable through normal means were patched out and replaced with error text instead of being patched in as droppable items, the Ragged and Braves sets deserve to be more than just cut and forgotten content

Submit

And the winner for most ugly heavy armors in the Fromsoftware games goes to elden ring! We got here: an armor with old dude face covered in goat horns (elf boots included), an onion like armor with a fancy trimmed helmet (looks even fatter than Catarina armor), an armor literally in sewer color with sheared off omen horns on it that was once worn by dung eater (do we even need to say anything...), and old fan favorite Smough armor but dyed black with an additional red cloth cover. Honorable mention to veteran's armor with it gigantic taky obscuring half the screen cape. All other armor sadly can't be considered heavy cause of them beraly or not even reaching 62 poise without using any aforementioned pieces of heavy armor...

Submit

we need some more basic knight armor

Submit

I don't know if Malformed Dragon armor set or Twin armor set counts as a beast armor set. But I do wish this existed, I want to commit to the beasts in a build. So far I'm using Malformed Dragon Armor and Beastclaw Hammer, but it doesn't fit precisely, but close enough.

Please tell me which one is the "true" beast armor set for Beast hammer

Submit

Does anyone kinda miss upgrading your armour like in dark souls 1? It added another layer to sense of progression in my opinion

Submit

Having good Elden Bling is more important than high poise

Submit

am i the only one who feels like the mix and match potential in this game is sorely lacking? All the metal armors have slightly different tints that don't match each other, and the cloth ones are similar. I miss ds3's standardized metal tint, made fashion almost limitless
