Having a great set of armor in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC not only makes you look cool while dying, but it means you take longer to die, and many new armor pieces and sets have been added in the Shadow Realm.
You’re going to die in Elden Ring. Unless you’re one of these streamers who can beat a Souls game with their hands stuck in a toaster while being on fire—you’re going to rack up deaths. Even with Shadow of the Erdtree‘s new items, the “You Died” screen is a regular occurrence, but armor is an effective combatant.
Throughout out travels in the Shadow Realm, we’ve come across a lot of new armor, with many worth considering.
