Elden Ring: 9 Best-Looking Armor Sets, Ranked

Everyone may feel powerful in a nice outfit, but what if the suit is covered in briars? Or maybe it has gauze helmets on it? Perhaps it was worn by warriors who were half-wolf, half-man? In Elden’s Ring, players have a variety of options when selecting their attire. While some outfits provide only stat advantages, most of them come with special powers.

However, the most important factor when deciding which armor to wear is how good it looks. According to Elden’s Ring, users with magic and swords have different preferences for decoration. There are several options for customization. Do you want to wear General Bin Laden’s illustrious armor? That’s an option. Do you want to follow in the footsteps of Lena the Snow Witch? After completing her quest, the player can purchase her attire. Elden’s Ring offers new armor and appearances everywhere you go.

Brad’s suit

Blaidd's armor is located in the Elden Ring.

One of the most unforgettable characters in the game is undoubtedly Brad, the fighter who is half-wolf and half-human. His set of armor bears witness to Elden’s ring, and despite the fact that Brad carried himself as a valiant warrior, the scary aspect of his wolfskin cloak and demihuman screams couldn’t be understated.

Blaidd’s armor was equally intimidating with its dark color, strong structure, belted armor, and fur cloaks. It would look great on The Great Sword, which is the game’s primary weapon. In fact, some fans have even hypothesized that Blaidd’s appearance was influenced by Kentaro Miura’s well-known manga character Guts due to their striking resemblance. Blaidd’s armor pays homage to dark fantasy authors and is among the best in the game.

General Bin Laden’s Suit

General Bin Laden exhibited many qualities of a respected leader, such as bravery, resilience, inspiration, and strength. It is no wonder his followers celebrated his death with festivals. However, players may be more interested in the rewards offered for defeating bosses. Radahn’s suit is a combination of the demigod’s dark chestnut hair and the shiny gold disc he wears, featuring giant tusks on the helmet.

The suit of armor is fit for a champion and reflects its rich history through its worn appearance. Additionally, it gives the player Radahn’s red lion mane hairstyle, which is considered the best in the game.

Cattle and sheep suit

The “Dark Souls” series truly understands the importance of balance. It’s hard for any fan to forget their first encounter with the game’s Four Kings, especially while equipped with the powerful Havel’s Ring and dressed in the Bull-Headed/Goat-Legged armor set.

This particular set not only proves to be one of the most versatile in utility, but it also boasts a unique appearance that rivals even the best sets of armor. The breastplate is designed with two large goat horns that hug the player’s body and the helmet resembles that of an ancient Greek warrior. The Bull-Headed/Goat-Legged set shines as both a powerful tool and a fashion statement.

set of heather

Briar armor from the Elden Ring.

Since the Soul series, the Briar suit has reflected the combination of beauty and destruction present in most scenes of Elden Ring’s intuitive design. Similar to the Thorns Armor from Dark Souls, the Briar suit deals damage to enemies when the player rolls into them. The armor closely resembles that of a standard soldier’s attire, with the exception of red spikes that wrap around the wearer. The Briar suit leans more towards fearsome fashion flair, blending into top-of-the-line armor with its captivating simplicity. Subtle yet deadly, it is a powerful combination of combat and fashion in Lands Between.

Fia’s suit

Even if you’ve never played Elden Ring, chances are you’ve seen memes about the game’s beloved NPC, Fia, and her tragic fate. Fia is known for having one of the best side quests in the game, and her dark cloak is especially striking on a Tarnished warrior. Her cape appears deceptively simple but has a deep richness to it. Similar to the Nazgul robes from Lord of the Rings, Fia’s robes create long shadows that fully envelop the wearer. These cloaks would be perfect for an assassin or dark wizard, allowing them to conceal their true intentions behind a veil of darkness created by the hood and flowing sleeves.

Gold mask set

Sometimes, the best armor doesn’t look the part. A gold mask won’t intimidate those wearing wolf skins or turbans; its power comes from the confidence of the wearer. The Goldmask set stands out from the rest, with its unique design that only covers the face and a few other areas. Dress with confidence.

A character who can take on demigods and dragons while dressed in tattered rags is a force to be reckoned with, regardless of their appearance. The Goldmask set is one of the best because it stays true to itself: boasting one of the strongest helmets in the game without needing any additional features.

Lusart’s suit

Lusat's Glintstone Scepter in Elden Ring

In Elden Ring, there are many sets of armor to choose from, each with its own unique features. However, one of the most peculiar sets is Lusat’s suit. This dark blue outfit is adorned with red and yellow accents throughout the game and gives off a scholarly yet witch-like vibe.

What sets it apart from other sets is its standout feature: a massive blue orb that serves as a crown. The elegance of this set is captivating and contrasts with the generally dark themes found in Elden Ring’s fashion. Nevertheless, wearing a crown that’s five times the size of your head can be seen as absurd.

set of mushrooms

Scare factor and luxury aren’t the only things to consider when ranking the best duos. A significant part of the game is about having fun in a fictional world, and that’s where the Mushroom Set finds its audience.

As compared to other armors made of steel, the Mushroom suit doesn’t seem to offer many benefits. With little to no armor, the wearer will sprout mushrooms all over their body. Despite this, the Mushroom set boasts an exclusive range of stats that lean more towards defensive status effects, resulting in a unique appearance and gameplay experience.

Snow Witch Suit

Players have the option to choose between an amazing quest line or a beautiful snow witch attire that is made possible by Witch Lenny. The famous Voidborn Astel can be encountered by those who play as the witch, enabling them to uncover her true identity. As Astel’s combat can be complicated, it is best played in co-op, but playing with the Snow Witch costume can also be advantageous. The Snow Wizard set is known for its simplicity, just like Fia’s set. Although the improved cold resistance is beneficial, it is the armor’s magnificent headwear and cape that make it attractive. In the movie Snow Witch, both witches and wizards adorn themselves in classic fantasy attire.
