Dark
Armor

There is a reason why this armor was chosen to be on the box art for Dark Souls Remastered and that is because it is one of the best all-around armors in the entire game. It is a 'jack of all trades' set that defends you a decent amount in almost every category. That's pretty much the character creation menu. Details for classes and gifts can be found in the links above.It does not matter what your character looks like in any sence it has no effect on the.

Dark Souls 3 is a wonderful addition to the long-running franchise. Much like other aspects of the game, the armor you'll collect for protection has gone through a few changes. Most notably, armor isn't upgradable this time around, and features set stats more akin to Bloodborne ware. It's a nice change that gives players more resources so they can focus on their weaponry. But more importantly, it gives players a better opportunity to find a suit of armor that makes them look like a badass with their weapon of choice.

The armor sets in Dark Souls 3 are extremely varied in detail and orientation, ranging from the plated armor of the Lothric Knights all the way down to the leather garb of everyone's favorite assassin Leonhard. Each set features a slightly different set of resistances – but let's be honest with ourselves here, its all about the look.

Does Armor Matter In Dark Souls

Here's some of our favorite armor sets from Dark Souls 3 and where you can find them in the game.

Undead Legion Set

Featuring a large pointed helm atop a mix of chainmail, plate and leather, this armor set once belonged to one of the Abyss Watchers from Farron's Undead Legion. These undead warriors took on the duty of guarding against the darkness of the Abyss and would destroy entire kingdoms if they even showed the slightest sign of exposure.

In order to obtain this set, you'll have to progress to the Abyss Watchers boss encounter within the game and defeat them. After defeating the boss encounter you can head back to the Shrine Handmaid and purchase the entire set for 31,000 souls.

Leonhard's Set

Easily one of our favorite characters from Dark Souls 3, Leonhard sports an armor set that gives off a vibe similar to something you might find in From Software's Bloodborne. Featuring a distinctive silver mask to cover the burns on his face, Leonhard's attire was designed to hide his entire body after he suffered grave burns as a young adult.

Leonhard's set is one of the more difficult to obtain if you wish to complete his questline (which we recommend doing), although you can immediately kill him for it when you see him appear at Firelink Shrine early on in the game. Upon death (via the questline or by your hand), he will drop his mask and you can purchase the rest of his set from the Shrine Handmaid for 10,500 souls.

Wolf Knight Set

Worn by the legendary Artorias the Abysswalker, the Wolf Knight Set is one of the biggest lore-heavy armor sets within the game. One of the four knights of Lord Gwyn, Artorias was sent to hold back the inevitable spread of the abyss as it worked to consume the world Lord Gwyn was trying to save. While fighting the Abyss Artorias was corrupted himself, tainting his armor with the very dark of the Abyss.

In order to obtain the Wolf Knight Set, you'll have to progress through the game until you reach the [Consumed King's Garden](http://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Consumed+King's+Garden. Complete the area and defeat Oceiros, the Consumed King to gain access to the passageway behind Oceiros. Follow this passageway until you see a dead end with a chest. Behind the chest is an illusionary wall that you can hit with your sword to get through, leading to a secret area called the Unintended Graves that models the very beginning of the game. Complete this entire area to reach a familiar shrine, where you can purchase the entire set from the Shrine Handmaid for 46,000 souls. In order for the set to show up however, you must have killed the Abyss Watchers.
