For both crafting and upgrading Armour, you'll need to speak to good ol' Moyra Heigsketter, who can be found in her forge on the southern edge of Ramsgate, next to Arkan Drew and Wils Bormen.Ĭertain Armour sets also have elemental leanings, depending on the Behemoth you created them from. Each piece of Armour in Dauntless must be crafted from the remains and resources you pick up during your quests - and you can level each piece up a maximum of 15 times, increasing both its Resistance and, at certain thresholds, its perks as well. So you won't be penalised by an attack hitting you on a certain point where you don't have any armour.Īrmour pieces not only provide you with increased Resistance, but they also contain Cell slots and useful Perks. Much like in Monster Hunter, they all contribute to a total armour value (called Resistance in Dauntless) which protects every part of you. Click any of the links below to skip ahead to a particular section.Īrmour in Dauntless is divided into four parts: the Head, Body, Arms, and Legs - but it may as well be 'Piece 1', 'Piece 2', 'Piece 3', and 'Piece 4', because there's no intrinsic difference between any of them. Below I've included an overview of Armour - how it works, and how you should put together your own unique Armour sets - before listing each different type of Armour in the game, organised by element. With all their stats, levels, Cell slots, and Perks, Armour in Dauntless can be a bit, well, daunting (heh, heh) at first glance. There you'll find in-depth beginner's explanations and useful tips, as well as links to every other part of our series, from the best Dauntless weapons and Dauntless builds to strategies on defeating each of the Dauntless Behemoths, and much more.

This here armor guide is just one small section of our guides series on Dauntless, all of which you can peruse from our central Dauntless guide & tips hub. Our Dauntless armour guide will walk you through every set, every piece of armour in the game (including Exotics), along with some handy tips and details so you can better decide your attire for the coming hunts. So while it's important to always equip yourself with the best possible weapon for the job, it's important to put just as much thought into the armour you wear and upgrade. Those Behemoths in Dauntless can get pretty nasty, often one-shotting you from across the map with a sudden charge, or a volley of quills, or some other horrible method.
