In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, armor sets differ from the typical RPG format. Unlike many games, there's no bonus for equipping a complete set, and often, mixing and matching is more beneficial. However, if you're keen on using full sets, here are the top armor sets to consider in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.

Best Armor Sets in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Armor sets in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* are unique in that they are typically found in specific locations or dropped by particular enemies, leading to set names that reflect their origin. Exceptions include Twitch drops and pre-order bonuses.

Best Armor Sets for Protection

Praguer Guard Armor

Wearing this armor allows you to navigate the camp freely without being questioned or attacked by guards, making your quest to find Sam much smoother. Additionally, it offers solid protection with defense stats that can reach 269 stab resistance, 312 slash resistance, and 146 blunt resistance, depending on its quality.

Cuman Armor

The Cuman Armor, obtained from enemies in the Kuttenberg Region during the "Bellatores" side quest in Bylany, is not ideal for stealth due to its high noise and conspicuousness. However, it excels in combat, providing good protection against slashing and blunt damage. Its defense stats include 149 stab resistance, 181 slash resistance, and 65 blunt resistance, varying with quality.

Milanese Cuirass Armor

Available for purchase from merchants in Kuttenberg City, the Milanese Cuirass Armor is a solid choice for defense. Though it's on the heavier side, its defense stats are impressive, with up to 392 stab resistance, 286 slash resistance, and 100 blunt resistance, depending on quality. Keep an eye on merchant inventories, which refresh every 7 in-game days.

Vavak Soldier Armor

While the chest piece isn't the strongest, other pieces offer substantial stab and slash defense. Its stats include 352 stab resistance, 264 slash resistance, and 99 blunt resistance, depending on quality.

Brunswick Armor

Exclusive to pre-order players and obtained through the "Lion's Crest" side quest, the Brunswick Armor is exceptional for its early availability. It's perfect for surviving the initial quests before Semine's wedding, with defense stats of 704 stab resistance, 567 slash resistance, and 239 blunt resistance when worn as a full set.

Best Armor for Stealth

Cutpurse Armor

For those who engaged in Twitch drops, the Cutpurse Armor is an excellent choice for stealth missions. However, it's currently unavailable unless reintroduced in future events. Its defense stats include 24 stab resistance, 53 slash resistance, and 54 blunt resistance when fully equipped.

Overall Best Armor

The best armor strategy in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is to mix and match pieces to suit your build's needs. While full sets look great in cutscenes, they offer no combat advantage. Effective armor choice, combined with the best weapons, can help you navigate the game's challenges more successfully, whether you're focusing on combat or stealth.
