Samurai Clan Armor

The Samurai Clan Armor is a vital piece of equipment for Jin Sakai, especially for players who favor direct combat and standoff mechanics. This armor is acquired during the story tale "Ghosts From the Past" in Act 2. Its primary benefit lies in its ability to enhance standoff capabilities, allowing Jin to defeat more enemies during a single standoff.

To maximize the effectiveness of the Samurai Clan Armor, it is recommended to fully upgrade it to Level VI. When fully upgraded, this armor allows Jin to kill an additional two people during a standoff, beyond the standard limit. Combined with the Improved Standoff Streak ability, which allows for up to three kills, the fully upgraded Sakai Clan Armor enables a maximum of five kills in a single standoff. This is crucial for earning achievements related to standoff streaks.

Additionally, the Sakai Clan Armor, along with the Ghost Armor, can increase the chance of terrifying enemies during combat, with a 25% chance when equipped. Obtaining dyes for this armor involves completing the Mythic Tale "The Legacy of Kazumasa Sakai" and bringing six Sakai Clan Banners to the Horse Armor Dye Merchant southwest of Zasho Bay.
