Buy Crimson Desert Accounts

In Crimson Desert, the armor system is designed to offer players a high degree of customization. The stat differences between most armor pieces are negligible, meaning a character's combat effectiveness isn't significantly affected by their armor choices.

This article details the unique armor sets in Crimson Desert, including their appearance, component composition, and acquisition methods.

Identical Sets Obtained with Contribution Points and Purchased from Shops

Demeniss Ceremonial Plate Armor four-piece set lacks a glove piece, but since the glove slot itself provides offensive stat bonuses through specific equipment, this omission isn't a substantial loss.

Demeniss Ceremonial Plate Armor set boasts a highly distinctive appearance. While the chest plate is already quite impressive, the boots and cape are truly remarkable. These two pieces feature unique decorative styles, offering immense potential for mixing and matching with other set pieces.

To obtain this set, travel to Varnia in the northeastern part of Crimson Desert region. The helmet, chest plate, and cloak in the set are sold by the town's contribution points merchant for approximately 59 contribution points.

The boots, however, require reaching 100 trust points at the equipment shop in Varnia to unlock their purchase; they cost only a few silver coins.

Scattered Sets Collected Through Chests in the World

Crimson Desert hides numerous chests, with some armor sets' Crimson Desert Items tucked away in these inconspicuous corners.

Executioner of Darkness Armor

This armor set, designed for Damiane, while lacking a chest plate, boasts extremely high overall quality. The cloak is the most outstanding part of the set, offering a stunning visual effect when properly coordinated.

The helmet is located in a hidden area north of the letter K in Gorthak's tag on the map, opposite the road to Marni's Outpost. The location features a circular structure with a spinning wheel in the center, and a leaf-covered opening to its east. Destroying the covered planks reveals the chests.

The cloak is located at Arrowhead Rock on the west coast of Delesyia. A massive stone pillar stands on the north side of the island, with a small cave entrance on its eastern surface.

The gloves are located near Bowsprit Cape, south of Steel Mountains, on a tiny rocky island with a cave that can be jumped into.

The boots are among three stone pillars on the west coast of Delesyia. The middle pillar has a crack about halfway up its length, concealing chests.

Skyblazer Armor

The helmet is located in a hidden cave near Wyvern's Nest in the southwest of Delesyia. Several stone pillars can be seen looking down from the ledge; drop down and use Focused Force Palm to enter the cave. The cloak is located at Fort Windridge in the southwest of Delesyia. Climb to the top of the tallest central tower and use the skill Flip Panel to enter the secret room containing chests.

The chest armor is located at Sanctum of Devotion. There are stairs and a door on the front of the central tower. Reach the top of the wall and use Force Palm to attack the wall, causing it to rotate and allowing entry into the secret chamber.

The gloves are hidden in a waterfall cave at the confluence of rivers below Delesyla sign on the map. The chests can be found in the waterway behind the cave.

Advanced Sets Obtained Through Crafting and Trust with NPCs

In Crimson Desert, there are sets that require players to simultaneously master crafting recipes, accumulate Crimson Desert Items, and build trust with multiple NPCs.

Lizard Skin Set

This is a unique set that can be crafted as both a helmet and a cloak, and it can be refined and upgraded.

To obtain this set, you first need to acquire the crafting recipe book, Leather Armors of the World Volume 4. This book is located in Ridgehunter Tannery, near the roadside woods in central Pailune. This area is initially an enemy stronghold; after clearing it, enter a locked house. Use the key to open the door, and the book on the corner shelf contains the target recipe.

Duskfang Leather Armor

This three-piece set from the Hellhounds leader Hemon Beindel includes a cloak, chest armor, and gloves. The cloak is essentially a complete dog skin; while it cannot be dyed, its uniqueness is irreplaceable.

The cloak is located in a hidden cave near Greymane's main camp, in the area surrounding Hernand. There are destructible planks on the cliff face; the cloak is in a tunnel behind the planks.

The chestplate is in a waterfall cave called Whispering Grotto, southwest of Greymane Camp. Find the pile of rocks at the bottom, use a Stab to cross the water, and follow the tunnel to find the chest plate.

The gloves are in Castlewood Ruins on the east side. There's a pile of thorns to the right of the stone door; clear it with fire damage, and below is a lantern. Light it to open the door.

Practical Sets Purchased Directly from Merchants and Collected Through Side Quests

In Crimson Desert, some armor sets require little effort to obtain: simply spend silver or finish a few basic side quests.

Jester Leather Set

This set strikes a balance between comical appearance and formal elegance - the cloak, chestplate, and gloves have refined fabric aesthetics suitable for formal occasions. For the helmet, simply purchase it from Demeniss Circus tailor shop, or craft it using Leather Armors of the World Volume 3.

The remaining three pieces can be purchased from the clothing store in Demeniss Wildlife Park, with the breastplate requiring 100 trust points with NPC.

Autumn Banquet Plate Set

This leather armor set, designed for Damiane, offers a completely fresh look from the previously introduced sets. The helmet can be collected in the world, located in a ruined pit west of Kingshield Mountains tag, with flammable thorns in the corner. The cloak and boots can be purchased from the tailor at The Laughing Marionette Circus near Demeniss.

The breastplate is located in Sanctum of Mortification, north of Demeniss. There's a door on the west side with two lanterns nearby; lighting them will open the door. The gloves are hidden on a cliff north of Spire of Clockwork; jump down and look back, and you'll see a narrow crevice you can walk through.

Masked Liberator Armor Set

This four-piece set lacks a helmet slot. The default color scheme is bright, but this can be changed by dyeing. The cloak is located south of the letter R in Crimson Desert tag, directly south of Abyss Nexuses; the chests are behind a door in the ruins.

The chestplate is a reward from Masked Liberator Boss, who appears in Fort Manub near Tashkalp marker. The boss spawns after completing the quest to collect three items.

The gloves are in Firesand Helmhole, inside a small tower south of the letter S (any S) in Crimson Desert tag. Use a key to open the locked door.

The boots are in a pit in Gearmelt Confectionery in Drywind Valley region north of Gorthak. Use a Focused Force Palm to open the wall to find the chests.

The armor set system in Crimson Desert provides players with a wide range of cosmetic options. The vast majority of armor pieces have negligible differences in attributes, which means players can customize their armor according to their aesthetic preferences without worrying about sacrificing combat effectiveness.
