The Frostcursed Armor set is one of the best armor sets in the game, which can carry players from the early chapters of the game up until the endgame. This is owed to the armor's high defense as well as Ice Resistance. Additionally, this armor can also be reinforced through the Kuku System of the game, allowing it to gain more defenses than it already has.

The Scorchflame Armor set is similar to the Frostcursed Armor, but with fire resistance. Though the full set cannot be obtained through exploration, the pieces that you can take from exploring grant a significant defense boost for starting. Similar to the Frostcursed Armor, it can also be reinforced through the Kuku system, amplifying its stats to gain more defenses.

Alternatively, players can also use the Armor of the Shadows set for fire resistance.

The Blackwing Armor is a great early armor for lightning resistance. However, the armor truly shines in its ability to amplify the damage of Unarmed Builds through its Critical Bonuses.
