Recommended Epic Armor
| Armor/Set | Recommendation/Features |
|---|---|
![]() | [Recommendation] ★★★★・ - The +5% Movement Speed is powerful - Recommended if you don't have Milene's Boots or Rockin’Billy Shoes |
![]() | [Recommendation] ★★★★・ - Good balance of Health and Guard - Can be crafted from Blueprints - Requires Epic Rarity materials |
![]() | [Recommendation] ★★★★・ - One of the few Armor pieces that increases Attack - Head and Legs pieces provide a low Health increase - Easy to obtain from Yotsuyama Heavy Sentry/General |
The Boss Set is powerful, but it's not that strong considering it requires Epic Rarity materials obtained from bosses and other sources, so if you have the Milene Set or the Rockin'Billy Set, it's an option not to upgrade your Armor.
Tips! | The Kurohatsu Set is one of the few pieces of Armor that can increase your Attack, so using only specific parts is a valid option. |

How to Choose Armors
Prioritize Armor with High Health

Armor is equipment that mainly increases Health, though some pieces also improve Guard or Stamina Recovery speed. Since Guard only reduces damage when you actively use it, beginners should generally prioritize armor that provides a large boost to Health.
How to Get Weapons and ArmorShoes Gives Less Health, so Prioritize Perks

Among all Armor pieces, Feet Armor provides the lowest Health increase, so prioritize equipping options with high Stamina Recovery or Movement Speed +X%. In particular, Movement Speed +X% is extremely powerful, making it worth equipping immediately or keeping in Storage.
Beyond Demon Gate Labyrinth, Guard is Important

If your playstyle focuses on Guarding and Guard Counter, prioritizing Guard increase is a strong option. From the Body Rank 3 Demon Gate Labyrinth onward, enemy attacks become much more intense, making increased Guard especially valuable.
Tips! | If your Guard is 100, you will no longer take Damage when Guarding. |
|---|
Best When Using a Counterattack Healing Core

Equipping a Body Core with 'Health (per Counterattack)' restores 200 Health per Counterattack, making a Guard-focused playstyle and higher Guard especially effective for smoother Exploration.
Best Cores to UseChoose Armor with Strong Perks

Even within the same Armor piece, performance varies based on its Perks. Always choose the version with stronger Perks, with Stamina Recovery +X%, Guard +X%, and Movement Speed +X% being the top priorities.
