1. Blackfeather Ranger Set

Best Armor Set for Agile Builds.

I recommend The Blackfeather Ranger Set as it is a relatively Light armor set versatile for various situations. This Armor Set is also very easy to find during the early game, so it is recommended to find this Armor Set as early as possible.

2. Cursed Set

Best Armor Set for Enduring Physical & Wither Assaults.

This is a set suited to deal with Physical and Wither damage. It is a Heavy Armor Set but is still lighter than the heaviest options like the Tancred’s Set. I like to roam around a lot so being able to move freely with lightweight armor is a blessing.

Cursed Helm

Type	Heavy Head
Weight	10.4
Location	Proceed across the Bone Bridge, past the Umbral Tumor at Manse of the Hallowed Brothers. Ascend the stairs to encounter a Bringer of Stillness and several Remnants. The Bringer of Stillness may yield a Regular Deralium Nugget, a Vestige Seed, and Dimexus upon defeating them. The Umbral Belly, when Soulflayed, drops the Cursed Set.

Cursed Armour

Weight	39.3
Location	Cross the Bone Bridge at Manse of the Hallowed Brothers. After encountering it, pass the Umbral Tumor and ascend the stairs to the summit. Face a Bringer of Stillness and several Remnants.

Type	Heavy Arm

Cursed Leggings

Type	Heavy Legs

3. Pieta’s Set

Best Armor Set for Strong Holy Damage.

If you are looking for a Medium Armor Set that offers good Holy resistance, look no further than Pieta’s Set. It also offers decent damage mitigation against Physical attacks and increases your survivability in many difficult situations.

4. Lightreaper’s Set

Best Armor Set for Max Defense.

This set is particularly suited for Physical and Frost damage. It is still comparatively Light so that you can have more agility than the Tancred’s Set.

5. Tancred’s Set

Best Armor Set for Absolute Defense against Physical & Fire Attacks.

Tancred is the heaviest set in Lords of the Fallen but provides the most damage mitigation against Physical attacks. It is also really strong against Fire damage. Keep the Weight in mind while donning this. I recommend looking into Tancred’s Set for those who like a tanky build.

Tancred’s Helm

Type	Heavy Head
Weight	11.2
Location	Defeat Tancred Master of Castigations and Reinhold the Immured at the Tower of Penance, and Soulflay the boss Stigma to obtain Remembrance of Tancred Master of Castigations and Reinhold the Immured. Now, Molhu will sell it to you at Skyrest Bridge.

Why Others Were Not Chosen?

• Hallowed Knight Set (Heavy):  Offers strong Physical protection and good Burn resistance, but lacks specializations that would make it a top choice for specific builds.
• Orian Preacher Set (Medium): This set provides excellent Holy resistance but doesn’t excel at a single type of physical damage mitigation. It is not chosen for its less universally focused stats.
• Antique Hallowed Sentinel Set (Heavy): Great for physical and Holy protection, but its incredibly high Weight makes it less desirable for players who prefer agility.

My Few Bits On Armor Sets In Lords of the Fallen

My playstyle is very agile. As a result, I am personally biased toward Light Armor Sets like Pieta’s Set. They offer the best balance between protection and agility for me.

But you cannot ignore the importance of the heavier sets we talked about, like the Tancred’s Set, even if they felt too cumbersome and slow to me. They offer the most protection against all attacks in Lords of the Fallen. Pair them with your favorite weapons to have the build of your dreams.
