I honestly don’t care about how much an armor set helps me I just pick which ones look best
yes comrade
I'm rocking the broken armour atm, whoops 🤭
I enjoy the Ronin and Kensei armor set
Kensei armor #2 for days
Agree. Depends on your movie or other entertainment backgrounds or mood.
"a true samurai needs no clothes" - Jin Sakai after too much sake.
Why this makes me laugh 😂😂😂
Same 🤣 lost it when I read that description haha
@@justinbarnuevo8328 jin sakai has lost it 😂
I want to like it but it's 69 likes
Kenji's sake you mean? haha
That makes him Jin Sake
The only problem with the Mongol armour is I don’t wanta dress like them haha. So that armour is dead to me. Thanks for the video, I’m just starting the DLC. Loving the game and Jin’s story.
DLC armor is by far the best in the game if you are decent with parries.
@@AznCracker13it also sometimes lets you blend in
Hey it's Pewdepie!!!
Exactly the same here, I've never worn it either. In my NG+ I only used the ronin, kensai and the ghost armour.
SAME HAHAHA
the fact that the clotheless samurai build looks just about exactly like "Let me solo her" fits really well.
I end up running around with the travelers set on almost all the time just to find artifacts. Switch to the Samurai amour during big battles then switch back to travelers.
@Edwin C. same and a dope mask and im set
That's what I did for half the game. Then I got Kensei armor and ghost armor, and those just look too bad ass to change out of.
ayyy I did that until yesterday
1. Equip traveler's armor. Explore.
2. Get into a standoff. Call time out, change into Sakai armor.
3. Standoff done! Enemies remain? Time out! Change into Stagger Armor
4. Enemies done! Traveler armor.
I do it too
the best part of this game, u can change ur equipment and armor everytime everywhere, even in the middle of battle.
Imagine staring your foe in the eye, you draw your sword ready to duel to the death and right before he flicks his sword from the sheath, he takes his clothes off and puts a bucket on his head.
Radodactyl I laughed too hard at this lol thanks man.
Radodactyl that would definitely be something I would do at some point in playing
I did it in a cutscene too it was cool asf how it also changed mid cutscene
Yes!
my personal favorite armor is the Sarugami armor. Being able to blind enemies in a very wide range simply by dodging or being able to kill 3 people with one parry feels so overpowered, along with the cape and the vanity dyes looking really cool.
It’s the most powerful for sure this list is wrong
I always rock the black dye sarugami armour w the black dye Sakai helmet and either the ghost mask or the Sakai clan mask
@@aidancampos7525 saragami is in iki island dlc i don’t think it was made then
@@kennygudz9326 Thats a good combo. I also use the black dye for Sarugami but I like to use the level 2 Sarugami helmet. Those are good options for helmets too though
@@kennygudz9326 this is exactly how my jin looks
For me the Ghost armour with increased fear charms was by far the best, every single fight enemies would just drop and run away in fear it was far more useful than all of the others which offered higher health/damage.
Bro at this point theres no fighting at all💀
What's the point of fighting if you let them run away?
@@SomeGuyH3re because I played on Lethal mode during my first run and it was quite useful.
I don't really use the ghost armor just because of the terrifying effect because I want to improve at the game and I can't do that when enemies are running away
It adds to the feeling of being the ghost. When you strike an enemy down and they all run, it makes you feel really scary and powerful. It makes the game better
”get Ghost armor really early on” its litterally 70% into the game 🤔
Lmao for real though. It kinda sucks im maxed out on a lot of stuff already and still have like 20 percent of the game to do
@@skinnybuddha8988 Literally how it was for me. Side quests just straight up couldn't give me anything since I was maxed out on materials and upgrades.
@@joshuahendricks7201 sitting here saving citizens in the hope they expose some random location i haven't uncovered
@@skinnybuddha8988 Once you've completely liberated the area they can't do anything for you except give you experience.
Oh trust me you're nowhere near done

@@marlbartony1621 facts
smith lovy it is they
@@marlbartony1621 shut the hell up mate mans is tryna make a joke here
Or no pants
If you go along with the story, the armors really help you get through the game: Samurai Clan for act I, so you can learn the basics and make mistakes; Sakai for Act II, so you can abuse standoffs before it gets too difficult; Ghost for Act III, when stealth is the best approach.
I unintentionally used the armors in this order lol
But instead of the ghost armor I stuck with the sakai armor
@@andrasbelecz411same
This is probably the canonical order that jin used the armor
I usually go ronin act 1, then gosaku/tayadori (short/long range) the rest of the way. But yes, always think of the clan armor as excellent learning armor.
This is so shit lol. Samurai clan is not to “learn the basics”, it’s a resolve armor. Sakai armor is a melee damage armor
I sometimes go with a white Ronin Armor and a Strawhat only because of Samurai Jack vibes
i use White Robe and the Betrayer's strawhat.... thats my favourite look
Yup my favorite look is the white ghost armor and the betrayers hat. Definitely my favorite outfit
Same
You just wanted to get back, back to the past.
I just wear the Sakai armour and nothing else do I don't know why I'm here.
I just love the role play of it.
I'm not a ronin, I'm not a wanderer, I'm a samurai of clan Sakai.
Same
Sakai armor is one of my favorite, ghost is next as far as asetics.
But honestly, the first armor u get seems to be the best , the resolve gain on damage is so helpful.
Nevasoba white ghost Armor with Sakai helmet looks 🔥
But your not a samurai anymore once you stopped living the samurai code
Everyone: I change armor depending on the situation.
Me: *ARMOR IS ARMOR!*
Same, although Kensei armor was rated among the worst, thats basically all I wear because its the most appealing outfit when it is maxed out.
Armor isn’t armor because there is different advantages with different armors so...
Its like the Russian Road Meme
"HERE IN RUSSIA, ROAD IS ROAD, YOU DRIVE ON ROAD"
MATH IS MATH!
and Ronin attire is god
General: Sir we have reports of the Ghost attacking our forts
Khoutan: what does he look like, I want to hunt him down
General: *half-naked*
Here's the thing, the first outfit you get, the Travellers Attire is kind of the one you want to wear the entire game, it looks good, and it uncovers more of the map and allows you to find collectibles, however, you can change outfit mid fight, so I often went for a combo of Ronin/Travellers attire, I basically never wore anything else, besides Sakai Clan, Gosaku and Ghost armour and that was only for trophies
yeah but its useless once you realise the collectibles are easy to find. you uncover the hole map once you take all mongol bases, and then the only collectibles that you cant see on the map are crickets and artifacts ( wich are unworthy unless you are going for trophys ) i definetly don´t recommend you to use the ronin armour in midgame or endgame fights, but if you are happy to do that be happy
I use it always because i like the cape
I use it all the time I love the travelers outfit
I refuse to dress up as a mongol. That’s a big no, pal.
Uncle Shimura: That's my boy
Jin pretty much disregards fighting like Samurai with honor in favor of fighting just as dirty as the Mongols but wearing Mongol armor, that's where Jin draws the line lol
Why? the armour set looks so cool.
@@ansettwise0005 LoRd ShIMurA
what they did to taka was just horrible
I had the travelers for the first part of the game, because Jin was a traveler searching for allies. Then I switched to the Sakai Armor, because at this point, Jin was proud of beeing a Sakai. Now I wear the Ghost, because Jin sees himself as the Ghost.
I don't really care about specs,: I try to feel with Jin, and the storyline. And by the way, I have a katana.
Lol I did the same thing
Your Legend Grows 😎
Reflect on....
(O) Owning a Katana

😁
Cringe
@@kenkanifffromconnecticut3963 ikr too cringe
Do you own a fedora too?
Tadayori's armor is so damn fun to use if you have the arrows to use it. You can clear entire waves of enemies with such ease.
And the black dye on it looks so niceeeee
I dont care, when i finally fully upgrade the Ronin set, I'm gonna be Rurouni Kenshin of Tsushima
I almost finished act 2 while entirely playing with the rõnin attire and just by watching this I realized it's the worst😅
@@ElSemih Once you get the Ghost armor, Ronin armor turns useless.
@@charlyrob7334 Yeah but I simply prefere the looks of the Ronin
@@ElSemih same dude currently i almost completed act 2 thinking that someone might gift me an armour just because i like ronin armour
@@rakshitsrivastava6887 It's definetly the best looking
I dont have a set I "main" I'm constantly switch depending on the situation. Sometime mid battle. What I hope they add someday is loadouts!
Was just thinking that exact thing. I use travelers when I'm traveling and Sakai when I'm fighting. Constant switching
Yes, totally agree.
I think they should introduce a save armour feature. So it saves with the charms on. So I could switch & not have to reattach my charms again.
Sentient being
More like a traveling Sake 😂
💯 New game+, loadouts, challenge rooms/fort. And Multiplayer, Vs. or Team Up (imagine a dynasty warriors type of Multiplayer with waves & Waves🌊 of enemies)
My favorite is the transcendent ghost armor. The Cape is just gorgeous.
Same just got it playing on lethal, I actually think it was easier that way if you know how to parry
@@TheCrenshaw1991 Aye love lethal 😀
Ghost Armor looks best at lv2 form. Lv3 covers the pauldrons.
It’s really cool but I don’t like playing Japanese assassins creed
@@Cnote-jq9qs XD it's like Ac1 tho.
While I agree with your list, I’d say that the ghost armor could also take the top spot for its versatility. While it doesn’t give massive increases to damage or health, it gives abilities that can be used in multiple builds to great effect, which makes it an extremely easy armor to work with. The terrify bonus in particular is huge since this can easily half the difficulty of a huge swarm of enemies and can honestly feel unfair at times. But the other three armors in the top four are still amazing so honestly I’m cool with whatever.
This guy's a joke. Try kensei armor with infinite heavenly strike lol
@@GambitGodsey187-ku3wzbro people really don’t realize how deadly the Kensei armour is, bro kensei max with kunai is literally terrifying
Samurai Armor all the way. As soon as I got it in the beginning nothing else made more sense. So dependable and the resolve gain was just crazy. I didn’t ever skip a single chance to fight groups of enemies so it suited my play style lol
i get you but the best feeling is when you use the sakai armour and swipe all the enemy group just by stand off, try it.
Kensei armor is ridiculous if you play it right, “right” in this case being spamming appropriate ghost weapons to get resolve and quick kills back and using resolve abilities when you have resolve to spare after a group kill or when you’re full up. Optimally you’d combo, like throwing a sticky bomb into a cluster whose approaching you, using kunai to debuff and disabling the dudes in front of you and use dance of wrath to clean up. Amount of stuff you can do with Kensei armor is crazy but it’s a very high skill ceiling armor, and it really shines when using ghost weapons to even the odds against large groups. I’m no where close to mastering it.
Ghost armor shines when using a terror build, or a stealth build, or using both. It’s pretty self explanatory imo; use the terror major charm and either use fire doctrine minor/charms of fortune charms for massive terrify chance when you use it correctly, on top of easy stealth kills and ghost stance. Love the ghost armor. It’s perks lend it to a lot of different builds focusing on terror and quick stealth kills, rest is up to the player. Shame it’s gotten so late.
Gosaku ofc is op, what with the constant stagger and healing. It doesn’t take an genius to build around Gosaku, although I love the knockdown build you made earlier. Combo it with bludgeoning charms and it makes duels very easy, to the point that it’s probably the best armor for duels. Overall a great armor that you can use to finish the game as soon as you get it.
Agreed for stealth I think gohst is best because you can only kill up to four enemies in the mongrol armor with out real being scene but if you have a offensive game play I think it’s either saki clan or gosaku armor ( and I apologize for anything misspelled)
Ben Arellanes I think Gosaku is generally better than the Sakai Armor, but if you’re good at standoffs it can beat it. Problem is Standoffs don’t always happen and the get progressively harder in each act.
In my opinion, gosaku are the best. Gosaku with charm of bludgeoning, charm of susanoo are stagger god.
Garrett Keenan yea I know but I’m just saying there the best for offensive game play
Who needs stealth when you have a fully upgraded katana?
When you only wear the Traveling attire the entire game cuz its so useful
TheTerrorizingToast Its really not
Noob Gamer it is if you care about artifacts, banners, or any other exploration.
A Goodloe mmm im really not
yeah thats what i did too, looks the best w the black dye merchant skin on too
Shreyanth Varghese I like the white the most
I just try to get REALLY good so that I can wear anything purely for aesthetics.
Personally I would rank the kensei armor higher purely because that boost to resolve gain is so good. Combine that with a couple resolve boosting charms, the charms that give a random chance to return spent resolve, and the fortune charms to boost that random chance, and you end up with a build that will literally never run out of resolve allowing you to spam heavenly strike as much as you'd like, making it amazing for group fights and bosses alike.
So would I. My top three would be Gosaku, ghost, and kensei in no particular order, mostly because of the combo potential between armor perks and charms.
Kensei armor
The charm that gives you a kunai on perfect dodge
The charm that makes perfect dodge easier
Charm to increase ghost weapon damage
Charm to increase stagger damage
Charm that boosts resolve gains and increases stealth by 15%
Charm that boosts health and melee damage
Thats been my go to setup
This is exactly what I did, kunai are the most OP weapon in the game. I actually found myself changing off this armor because it was so good it made the game not fun. pretty much 25 free kills with 5 kunai not counting the ones you pick up and gain through perfect dodge. It should be #1 easy.
Kunai then dance of wrath. Barely ever get touched. Disagree greatly with the ranking of it on this list. You are fighting mobs way more than you are dueling. That being said these lists are always subjective. It depends on the way you play. Tbh there is no point in ranking the armors in this game. Charms matter too much to rank armors instead of builds.
The extra supplies ,yew trees ,animal skins etc charm is really good for farming
@@davestationuk7374 I ran that charm pretty much the entire game
And it's also the best looking
My favorite armor is the fundoshi just because of the description
Ahhahahahaha.
A real samurai needs no armor
I thought there would be a scene where Jin would be drunk naked😂 I can't Imagine how he ended up like that
How do you get the fundoshi
Brandon Harwell do all the hot springs.
For me the Cape physics are really cool and that's why I ended up using the traveler gear most of the time and only put the samurai armor usually sakai during battles or missions involving plot with shimura or other main characters
I just use the Sakai armor with gosaku's mask because it makes me feel like a forest spirit 😎
I did that once wearing the wolf of Tsushima mask and it looked bad ass
My favorite set up. I get the white version of the Sakai armor with the red Gosaku helmet with a red/white oni mask so I can be the a real samurai "ghost"
@@HonestOpinions4u sounds awesome, can't wait to go back and play it once I'm able to grab one of those ps5s
The Kensei is one of the most top tier armors specially building it right, the Resolve gain is general meaning taking damage and killing enemies increases resolved gained by 30 percent, couple that with the charm that enables you to throw 5 kunais at once and you have an excellent disabling powerhouse. And finishing them off with the sword is the most "Kensei" thing you could do
(Kensei means Sword Saint or Sword Master)
Aaron Buenaventura Oh hell yeah, time to usurp Isshin as the sword saint
Yea Kensei armor is great when you equip the right charms. Very fun to play with.
@@dovahkiindragonborn3950 Isshin's never been a sword saint to begin with, he's the glock saint
Hamzah Sumedi True
The best armor in Lethal mode if you want your life to become easier
The Kensei armor is awesome, I am was confused why it didn't increase the dueling stats since you had to travel all over the place and win 6 duels to unlock the armor. I found the only armor that made a significant impact on my gameplay was the traveler armor. With it equipped it took a few seconds to find the collectible item and without it equipped I missed a lot of easy to find items. The truth is once you unlock the healing ability and you turn into Terminator Samurai it doesn't matter which armor you choose because the only thing that can kill you is you jumping off a cliff.
Ghost Armor with the Mongolian face mask makes Jin look like a vengeful monkey god, which is how I play Act 3.
I use the ronin armor with a specific set of charms in duels. For one, it really is effective in duels, and looks badass.
Got the Platinum today, honestly it's been really amazing and I say one of my favorite armor sets would be the kensei and ronin. Of course it depends on play style and preference. But you don't unlock the ghost armor until near the endgame
Congrats on the plat i got mine on hard and im doin the lethal run now 😅 games fire
I got mine on the lethal XD just waiting for new game plus, fingers crossed they release it
@@Onecutetiger the day i got platinum they announced the patch i wasnt planning on going back so soon but the challenge was issued lol
hey now that you have the platinum if you still wnat to play the story mode here´s a challenge im doing :
Doing all the story as Jin would have, helping the persons he finds, doing the secondary storylines first and all that. Also wearing the armor he would have wear in that moment and not changing mid fight, also trying to do more cinematic combat than op strats.
what you think about ?
I say just wear what you think looks best tbh. Enemies die quick anyway, with stance switching/parrying on all difficulties and bosses/duels are one time only, so really no point doing builds with specific armour in mind as if it's like a Dark Souls game.
I just wear whatever looks coolest or whatever I feel like running.
Yep exactly this. The game is already extremely easy even before these builds, I don't see the fun in just cruising through the game. And then there's lethal difficulty, where you both kill your enemies instantly and they kill you instantly no matter what armor you have on; again making builds irrelevant.
Yea especially if you use the right charm setup, you'll have good melee/arrow damage, healing, and resolve gain. It's mostly about looks, or if you play harder difficulty change armors to be more tanky
I use the armor of Gosako and went to the black dye merchant best hours of grinding to get enough supplies to upgrade it
you start playing on that new lethal mode?😂
I wear them for roleplaying purposes. I wear Ronin attire for just traveling around, and the samurai clan armour for fighting enemies in act I. In act II I get gosaku's armour, which, given the fact that it is from a mythic tale, makes sense for it to be better than the samurai clan armour. Upon arriving on iki, I unlock the sarugami armour, and I use it in my time there. It is only after those events that jin finally finds the courage to go and reclaim his father's armour, and so that one becomes his main armour set. I also take the time to unlock the horse armour set here. After the events at the end of act II, it makes sense that jin fully embraces the ghost and uses that suit, but I still like to use the sakai clan armour for big fights, and the kensei armour for wandering around kamiagata, given how cold it is there, and how warm that suit looks.
After act 1 I always do the quest for Gosaku armour, and upgrade asap. It looks cool and the perks make it such a tank, especially against large mobs of enemies. After act 2 I only use travellers attire for exploring, ghost armour for taking out Mongol encampment with stealth, and Gosaku for boss fights or large scale encounters. All other armour types weren't needed. Totally agree with the list you made.👍
I have a few builds I just love.
Really hope in the future sucker punch adds in Ng+ and Loadouts menu of some kind.
And a legend on the map
NG+ has been available since last October.
@@zsu-23-4shilka2 comment was posted 7 months ago. Before ng+.
"The kensei armor is bad because you can kill things so quickly that the last perk doesn't do anything...."
Hmm
I died when reading the qoute on the fundoshi armor😂😂
I always love the least protective skin looking ones or battle damaged I feel like it adds character
Gosaku all the way. Could saw this one coming from a mile! This armor is incredible.
I personally try to use mostly just the katana. I like the skill and thought that needs to be given in order to cut everyone down, maybe not in 1 hit, but I try to play just on perfect parries and defence braking. So it doesnt really matter to me what armor I wear.
Gosaku armor breaks defense better and faster than any other armor so it should matter.
MAGA COUNTRY the game way to easy with gosaku
iAnthony7i fax because if your good at the game your damn near untouchable with that armor everyone gets cut down like butter 😂
@@babayaga4320 In lethal mode guards easily break and most of the time you can kill them with light attacks even before they have their guard up again after a parry
For samurai play style gosaku armour is the best. When enemies stagger u can kill them very easily. Plus it give u good few seconds to rapidly attacks enemy. It goes with other styles like archer, ghost or assassin.
This helped a lot since I was currently doing the gosaku mythic tale
"you get it the first few hours of the game"
nope I've been doing all the side missions first lol
I know right. The completionist in me.
i wore traveller’s attire all the way until the endgame lol
I wish you could put armor abilities on whichever armor you want to wear. Like in AC you can change your armor appearance to look however you want
Or Spider-Man PS4. Keep the suit and just change the abilities, tools, etc.
@@ki7966 same in nioh
That would be really nice
I like the travelers kit for looks.
That and the straw hat. Looks so cool.
I love gosaku's looks but i never used it. It's too op, i pushed his stagger factor too much with charms and it's an absolute train covered in razorblades: if it moves it hurts and you can't just stop it
No, stagger damage to me just seems useless, the parry and dodge of the sarugami armor are the real goat/mvp there's no match for it.
Just imagine doing the castle shimura mission wearing the fundoshi outfit 😆😆
fighting the khan with it on is the way
Ghost Armour is probably my Favourite, if you have it on max there's a minor charm I forgot that makes the % chance of something occur 50% more often.
If you use it with the ghost Armour a maximum of 3 - 4 enemies with get terrified and run away in a random encounter
Agree
I was supposed to fight 6 guys, then they just fled away after I killed 2. Make me realize why train so hard if there's no enemy.
Thanks bailey will try tonight keep up the great work ✌️
I agree with you in all sectors about stats wise but I personally think the Sakai Clan armour and Ghost are significantly better as the story behind both set of armours is honestly somewhat beautiful as well as the way the armours look, its honestly a personal view but you know, that's my personal views. Loved the video and the detail you went into...
nothing makes you feel more like a badass than the Ronin armour
You’re literally not having armor on and it’s just a massive flex
Kensei armour is like ronin x2
@@Gaspucci thats what we want.
@@rakshitsrivastava6887 when I wrote that I was unaware of the hot springs armor, I also understand now after completing the game
@@Gaspucci thats what we like about the game, the game itself is a massive flex.
Ghost armor is my favourite/Best for my play style, shame you get it so late though.
Same here
Yea me too i breezed act 2 just because i wanted to use the ghost armor for most of the game completely ignored all act 2 side quests.
@@vagueeee4352 that's quite unfortunate
Tbh i wish i left a bit left over lol,ended up finished every area before i continued the next act. And so,i had no side content remaining lol,just collectibles.
@@vagueeee4352 Me too man. I literally fast travelled between locations loll
The moment I donned Gosaku's armor and played in it I knew this was the best. Thanks fot reaffirming that.
Thanks man I needed it
Either Gosaku, with the orange tint and Tomoe's fox mask, looks sick and yeah, the stagger damage build with it is awesome. And the Mongol Commander Armor, it is so funny to run around the enemy camps and basically go super-ninja assassin on them.
Straw hats with other outfits mixed is badass
True true true
I rock the ghost armour with the thief’s wrap and black genbu hat works really well together
Considering you can switch armor easily enough, it's more about figuring out what armor to wear for specific encounters. Or just play on easy mode and pick whatever armor appearance you prefer.
On lethal mode, this list is irrelevant
Yeah I agree, this list is out when it comes to the hardest difficulty. "Invincible samurai build"...if your playing on normal 😂 I been using the Kensei Armor all day today on Lethal difficulty...I like the bonus to resolve and also the increases ghost weapon damage.
Agreed. The 5 Kunai amulet + Kensei Armor combo makes your life easier in the highest difficulty.
The samurai set on lethal mode is tanky too, always have resolve and running resistance charm 3 on top of that is a cake walk
If you're good at the basics like parry and dodge i don't think the sets make much of a difference on lethal but i do think charms are still the very helpful
For me ghost armor on mobs literally just standoff or chain assassinate and kill last 2 proceed to ghost stance after that everyones terrified already. For boss Gosaku because of the stagger. Kensei i don't really have the time to abuse it since I didn't do the mythic tale for about late act 3 because i really wanted that ghost skin so i bypassed all act 2 side content to rush act 3. Since thta mythic tale for kensei is the best tale of bosses so yea gotta save that for last.
Travelers set, ghost armor, sakai clan armor. Thats all you need.
Tadayori is a fun change of pace though
Tadayori armor is helpful too though, also the mongolcommander armor is good too
Gosakus looks so damn good though
@@skinnybuddha8988 the sakai clan armor in white looks so badass
Eggroll Edison I like it on red
I just got gosakus armor very happy to hear it’s one of the best
What’s funny is I use the travelers armor through the whole game. Pretty much was the only armor I wore other than the archer armor. I used the Ghost armor in the final fight with Khotun Khan.
The travelers armor may not have been the best in combat, but I'd have to say...I probably had Jin wearing it 10x more than any other armor. Pretty much always switched back to travelers armor after every combat situation until all the fog of war was gone
My favorite is the Ronin outfit. 30% increased melee damage + lethal mode bonus + melee charms. With the right combination, most enemies are one to two hit kills
Glass cannon build, i also use that but will be useless by act 3 due to the fact that most enemies are elite meaning brutes with heavy spears and heavy shields.
@@vagueeee4352 That's why the parry is your best friend. Leaves them open to get some damage in
Gosaku’s armour is the strongest the stagger damage is crazy and can allow you to play way more aggressive
This was really good video! Thank you for making it❤
Love the time you took to showcase it with that little runway walk, good shit mate
I don’t get what people like so much about the travelers attire my favourite is the Sakai clan armour
Its probably the most useful
great for exploration and finding artifacts is easier with it and the game is alot exploration which makes travellers super useful.
@@megalomaniacko1 oooh scary
My favorit one is the Sakai Armour the standoff perk is so damn good and it provides you with increasd melee damage.
also if you upgrade the armour to the 4th level and upgrade the standoff part on the skill tree you can wipe out all of your enemys
I’m on my 2nd play through, just using the Traveller’s Attire all throughout and its so much fun. Makes you look like weak while cutting Mongols and bandits to pieces.
What I like to wear is the Oni slayer straw hat, red Sakai mask, black travelers outfit and the pure red katana (I forget the actual name). Can't go wrong with black and red, I like to also swap the hat with the headband of ruin which is just a straight up blindfold which looks pretty cool too.
IMO it really doesn't matter what armor you wear. That's one of the best parts of this game, there's really no need to min-max anything except upgrading your sword/tanto
Seriously, I’ve cleared entire Mongol camps wearing *_JUST_* the traveler’s fit
I agree, but not with the Kensei Armor... this is my take...
Stealth: Ghost/Mongol Commander's Armor/Ronin Attire (also good for combat)
Aggressive/Offensive Fighting: Sakai Clan Armor/Gosaku's Armor
Defensive Tank (Best for beginners or those struggling with combat): Samurai Clan Armor
Ghost Weapons & Max. Resolve: Kensei Armor (Prob. the most op armor with the right charms equipped)
Ranged Combat: Tadayori's Armor
There are two minor charms that grant u two bonuses. They are the best for almost every build and I would run them all the time: Inari's Might and Charm of Silence.
Why i think Kensei is the best all around armor to use: First of all we're talking about end game, when u have everything maxed out and all charms available. Combine the Kensei Armor with Inari's Might, Charm of Silence, Ghost Weapons bonus and Resolve bonus and whatever main charms you like and this build will absolute melt... your ghost weapons deal so much damage, your resolve is pretty much all the time at max, that means u can use your special abilities as often as u want, u have still very good melee damage and health due to Inari's Might. I experimented a lot and if u enjoy using all the ghost weapons and special abilities as effective and often as possible, this build is the absolute endgame... ;)
Yeah absolutely spot on there. This guy definitely got it wrong by placing Kensei down at the bottom when what you said is exactly what I use and it is 100% the best. I always throw Kunai to injure at least 3 Mongols then use Dance of Wrath to kill all 3. By which stage I will probably have the ghost stance available and destroy even more.
I use the exact same kensei armor build you talked about lol, glad to see I'm not the only one
Dont forget the charm that make status effect last 50%longer, that makes the kensei OP with extra kunai and 6 second stun after stagger charm (turns into 9 second stun with said charm). pair that with xtra ghost wepaon dmg charm and then you have a build that makes you utilize evrything in your arsenal rather than just having stuff you never use. IMO, ghost weapons makes the game so much more fun than just swordfighting and not using what the game has to offer.
Kensei is indeed op af and this guy putting it in the bottom makes me really confused. With a good practice using ghost weapon, kensei really turning the odds in every battle i fought. Either when really on low health and then just throw some kunai to get resolve for healing then get back into the fight. And your advice using those 2 inari charms are the same as i thought when i'm seeing this armor. Right now i'm already 100% my game and all the time i using kensei armor and it always get it's job done. My suggestion for the last two sets of charms is either using the double damage charms combined with the 50% chance charms or some other charms for defense depends on style of play.
Kensei armor is not that goated tbh it all mains around ghost weapons which is extremely limited your basically hoping that you have any kunai/bombs etc when you use up all of your ghost weapons the only thing thats good is the resolve gain and its not really that useful
Personally i tend to choose armor that is useful in melee combat like the clan sakai armor or the gosaku armor just my opinion tho
Just got the Gosaku armor, and I’m torn; the Sakai armor dyed black looks so badass with the bandit face wrap and death headband. I did a black dye to the Gosaku armor, and it wasn’t Batman enough!
Ha! I see you chose the same hat to go with the Fundoshi. It really does give it an added layer of ridiculousness.
Samurai Clan Armor is my favorite as I mostly play the game as a straight up combat specialist, and it is by far the coolest looking armor in the game, especially with the crecent helmet you get when you upgrade it to lvl 3. And on Masakos 8th quest you can get the Red, Blue and Gold colored version seen here, which is the same color for Shimuras armor and the armor you start the game with. Combine that with the Elegant Fury saddle and the Fuujin's Secret sword you have such an awesome look.
Ronin armor. It gives me the raw damage I want. I just challenge everyone face to face unless stealth is required for the mission. I grew up on Anime with Ronin characters(Ruroni Kenshin, Ninja Scroll, Samurai Champloo), so the look and style of fighting has a special place in my heart.
Ronin armor looks the best once you buy armor dyes.
A really well reasoned review. Thanks
As someone that played a lot of Sifu so dont have a bad time landing parries, the new Sarugami armor from Iki island along easier parries charm is a BLAST

best armor description.😂😂😂
I like my Pre-Order Armor with Gold Mask witch is badass sword and horse all the way through
Heroes of Tsushima ?
5:03 i love that description.
Been doing the travelers outfit when traveling and depending on who’s missions I’m doing I’ll change it and charms to suit the situation.
I propose a challenge to all of you: beat the entire game, free all cities, villages etc and the campaign itself only using the broken armor and stone stand. you can't use any kind of ghost weapon or bows just the katana and your own skills. you can't do stealth, can do standoff but you can use assassinations. good luck fellers
I've come to appreciate building with the Kensei armour, as I find it the most aesthetically pleasing.
For "charging bulls", Gosaku armour can't be beat.
I'm into act III right now using Ronin. If you focus on melee damage, Ronin can indeed carry you through the end game. And it has the most skin options.
Thanks!
Definitely agree with the list, though I like to run armor based on looks. My go to for looks is the Ghost armor with the Sakai helmet (the one with antlers).
I think the sides of the helmet doesn't really match i would personally not use any helmet or if u really want the sakai one i would use the second form to still cover up his head and looking good
ghost armor fully upgraded with charm that increases fear chances by 25% and then 2 charms of fortune = double kills for days
i will continue wearing the sakai clan armour for no other reason than: i got it in black and its metallic
Helpful this
Totally agree with your number 1 pick. On lethal once I get Gosaku's armour I never change again.
They need a gear swap macro system so you can swap pre-built sets on the fly!
My favorite is sakai clan or mongol commander, just becouse of the looks.
I'm glad you're number 1 is Gosaku. I today literally just found it and then upgraded it all the way.
I know this video was made before the iki island extension was added, but btw on iki island you can get a monkey armour which is seriously overpowered. It allows you to parry much better than go to ves you a massive damage boost afterwards.
