There is very little difference between Havel’s and Smough’s armor. The Set of Favor is the best-looking and most bad-ass armor set in Dark Souls.

Let’s face it, sometimes how armor looks on our build is the ultimate reason for equipping it. But my favorite feature is certainly the design of the set. It offers good protection across the board for a mid-weight set, including curse resistance. This set requires Twinkling Titanite for upgrades. After you avenge Anastacia, the set is located in the same level as the Chamber of the Princess’ bonfire. You must invade Lautrec’s world in Anor Londo using the Black Eye Orb. I could not help myself and had to find a spot on this list for the Set of Favor. So let us take a tour of my very biased list of Top 10 Armor Sets. Choosing and equipping the right armor for your build can make a world of difference as your progress through the game.īesides defensive attributes, you must also carefully consider the weight of an armor set, whether it can be upgraded and required upgrade material (normal versus Twinkling Titanite). There are different armor items and sets with unique attributes that may help you with a particular boss or game area.

Stronger armor significantly increases your defense.

Armor in Dark Souls is much more important than in Demon’s Souls.
