Elden Ring is a huge game, that goes without saying. We’ve already put together lists of the best weapons and best spells in the game, and this list is dedicated to the very best armor pieces. If you want to aim for a “Fashion Souls” build, then you really can choose whatever armor pieces you like, but if you want your armor to power up your abilities in battle, then we have what you need.
The armor in this list may look cool – it very often does – but the real purpose is complementing specific builds. We have several armor pieces dedicated to a variety of magic builds here, like our Magic Swordsman PVE build, but even hardcore STR players will find armor in this list that suits their style. Just read below for the very best armor that you need in Elden Ring.
