Ronin's Set is an Armor Set in Elden Ring. Ronin's Set is a medium weight set that is worn by Bloody Finger Hunter Yura. It is currently the most weight-efficient set for the amount of protection it offers, by a relatively wide margin, though the greaves are less efficient. Sets of Armor in Elden Ring are composed of four armor pieces which are Helms, Chest Armor, Gauntlets, and Leg Armor.
Where to find Ronin's Set in Elden Ring
- To aquire this armor, the player must kill Shabiri at the Zamor Ruins in the Mountaintops of the Giants. [Elden Ring Map here]
- The armor is also obtainable from the same location after accepting the flame of frenzy from the Three Fingers.
Note that killing Yura at an earlier stage will not provide the armor, but it will also not prevent Shabriri from possessing him.

It doesn’t hit 51 poise with the Bullgoat Talisman.
What are some replacement pieces that fit the aesthetic?

Someone else pointed this out, but there's a very interesting detail with this set. If you look at the hands, one hand is noticeably more armor-clad. That's because when Yura uses the AoW Piercing Fang, he places his hand on the Nagakiba's blade. To keep himself from being injured, he wears a full gauntlet on that hand. I love that detail so much, From really thought that out.

All Yura does is fight bleed builds in his quest, yet his armors lowest resistance is robustness. No wonder he ended up how he did...

This set but with the greathelm (crusader helmet basically) is peak drip

after the update this has around 40 poise all together without the help of the bullgoat ring!

Can't help but to look at the iron kasa as a giant cheese grater

The total poise of the set has gone up from 15 to 37 as of the latest update. That's crazy.
Head 6, Chest 16, gauntlets 4, greaves 11

"Note: If you kill Shabriri at first meeting he will drop the Ronin Set."
Can I still get the set if I kill him on the SECOND encounter??

I like to wear the Omensmirk Mask with the rest of the set.
Looks friggin’ dope.

Is legit the Elden Ring EQUIVALENT of the Elite Knight set. Saw some saying it was nothing like it, but it really is the closest thing to it in the game, and I'm glad they reimagined the design for a new IP. It would be weird if they didn't.

This set is not only fashionable, but also better than most of the armor that is around its same weight. If you sort your inventory by weight, you'll see how the pieces of this set have the best stats in their weight range.

If you inherit the Flame of Frenzy without ever having spoken to Yura or Shabriri, you will find this armor set in the Mountaintops of the Giants, where you'd usually be meeting Shabriri for the first time.

Can you get this set just by killing Yura as soon as you meet him in Limgrave?

I don't get the comment about its weight-efficiency. All the medium armors seem to be about on par. You get the Iron Set way, way earlier, and it really doesn't change a lot. The set's cosmetic, really.

If you want to cosplay a dark souls knight, this is the set for you (besides the hat)

Pair the set with the Vagabond Knight's helm and you have yourself a "DS1 elite knight fallen on hard times" cos play. Works with the hooded Banished Knight's helm too as cloak matches.

I wish FromSoft would fix how the swords poke through all the big helmets and hats

Am I the only one that thinks the Ronin Set looks suspiciously like the Elite Knight Set?
Obviously with the Samurai inspired helmet it is not but the boots and gloves match the Elite Knight set almost exact. The altered version of the chest piece is also similar, minus the tools on the belt, armor on the right shoulder, and a differing pattern of chainmail.
But the resemblance is uncanny.
Obviously ER is not in the DS universe, but it wouldn't be a stretch to connect the DS lore to Shabiri and the Frenzied Flame. Bonfires and all that

One thing I just noticed with the defense totals on the wiki, they seem to only add the armor damage reductions together, rather than calculating the total damage reduction multiplicatively, which gives diminishing returns. For example, your negation for strike damage with this set is not just 23, which is just the sum of the strike negation of each piece. You negate the damage by one piece at a time, and negating damage from the result afterwards with every other piece. So you start with 10.5% strike damage reduction with the chestpiece, giving a multiplier of 0.895 or 10.5 negation. You then reduce this new multiplier by 6.2% for the legs, bring it to 0.8395 or 16.05 negation, instead of 16.7 which would be their total by adding up. When the other two armor pieces are calculated, it comes to a multiplier of 0.7874 or 21.26% damage negation, instead of 23. I just realized now that the wiki got this wrong about the total negation of most armor sets.

Looks rather nice with Black Wolf mask and leather pants, fits in with my Barbaric roar style. I'd love to know what the metal ring is on the belt, a chakra? And the horn, pipe thing. The details are nice, the pouch and the rope belt thing, the armoured sleeve and the ragged but richly embroidered cloak. One of the nicest armours.

The armor matches well with the bloodhound knight arms and legs

There's no need to clear Yura's quest for this. On NG+ I rushed straight to the Mountaintops after getting the Flame of Frenzy, and the armor drop was in the usual place Shabriri is located. Pretty sure if you don't get the flame he'll be there alive and you can kill him for the set.

This set is probably the GOAT of the light sets, it’s low weight and decent absorption and stat resistances. The low poise is the only real downside.

Note: If you kill Shabriri at first meeting he will NNNNOOOOOTTTTT drop the Ronin Set

i don't think you need to do yura's questline past the point where you get reduvia. I just killed shabriri and the set dropped

Necessary to mention that the "unique benefit" of the Ronin's Armor, Gauntlets and Greaves, are that the three of them are VERY Damage Absorption / weight efficient at the cost of a great deal of Poise, and a notable loss in Robustness (Frostbite / Bleed resistance, which are likely going to proc frequently regardless) with all other status effects raised. They also are possessed of uniquely strong Lightning Absorption as well.
This makes the set highly competitive for Blocking + Thrusting Weapon-based characters as you need less Poise and more elemental Absorptions, though you likely will want a different helmet, which works out well for the Elden Bling endgame.

I can't find this guy I've been all around the ruins and have completed yura's questline. No where to be seen in my game

When the chest is altered it really looks like a bloodborne set imo

Just a recommendation, use this set with okina mask, it looks dope as hell! Couldn't find a better combination for my samurai.

I'm sad that the descriptions refer to it as Shabriri's first and foremost >:(

If you received the blessing from three fingers, Shabiri would be gone and drop the set
Traveler's Hat from the perfumer set matches the cape quite well
Once I reached the Zamor ruins this set was on the ground near the site of grace.
I didn't have to fight anyone.

In regards to "To acquire his armor the player must finish Yura's questline", I'm in NG+ (journey 2) and I just discovered that if you RUSH through the game from start to the Land of Giants, without exploring at all, you'll find this set lying on the ground where Yura is killed as Shabriri. I did the quest the first time, and in NG+ I didn't even saw him once.

You can also kill Shabriri on the Mountaintop of Giants to acquire this set.

Is anybody willing to trade for this set I ended up effing the quest so I’m locked out of it I’m on ps4 if anyone is interested

Found his armour next to the first Bonfire in the snow area after the Grand Lift. On my previous playthrough he was stood here preaching about the Frenzied Flame. I finished the Hyette quest and accepted the Three Fingers before coming here, so maybe that's why the armour was there instead of him.
Not calling it a reference, but aside from the helm, this set feels very reminiscent of Wolf’s set in Sekiro. And the helmet just adds to the feel of the rugged ronin/disgraced shinobi vibe.

I obtained the armor at the Zamor Ruins location after killing the final boss (while also curing myself before hand of the frenzied flame ending using the needle). It was lying where the fake Yura npc was standing (he seems to disappear if you cure yourself or finish the game).

I've only got his warning about the dragon, then he helped me with the invader near Patches' cave. I missed the rest of his questline yet I've just found his set sitting next to Zamor Ruins Grace.
yay me samurai now
