Armor and apparel pieces (head, upper body, lower body, arms, legs, accessories) provide defensive bonuses and can also carry special abilities. Equipping a full set of armor from a particular series can sometimes grant set bonuses, further enhancing your character. Prioritize defense and any beneficial special properties that align with your playstyle. Don't forget that appearance can also be customized independently of stats.

- Defensive Bonuses: Reduces incoming damage.
- Special Abilities: Unique effects like increased Soul Gauge gain or resistance.
- Set Bonuses: Equipping full sets can provide additional benefits.
- Customization: Appearance can be changed separately from stats.
