That's fair but you're failing to how effortlessly the game hands you the stealth armor set. It's cheap, easily upgraded, and basically obtained as soon as you leave the Great Plateau. In addition, the stealth bonus in general makes it so that collecting ingredients to be stupid easy, and you can just walk up to bugs, lizards, and fairies and grab them at a full run. In addition, stealth makes it easier to sneak kill enemies. Idk it's my only S tier armor for this reason.

[@juiceppe728]

Yeah

[@1tubax]

Yup plus the tier 2 speed bonus makes you always grind at night

[@xxspicytacoxx1861]

My favorite armor set is the stealth set but royal guards armor is good in my eyes and I also like the soldiers gear because for me by that point it's cheaper than stealth set and on first upgrade reaches 7 armor points max which i like

[@JamesL0717]

Honestly the Sheikah (stealth) set is my second favorite after the Ancient set. Sneak is too versatile, especially in the early game.

[@cassidy8307]

It's easy to get 10 minute long 3 stealth ups with 5x silent shrooms.

[@dressedmolerat]

I use Champion’s tunic with hylian trousers like in the cutscenes. Together with amber earrings it has massive defense!

[@epickid4268]

Sameee

[@Loopy_lollipop]

Oh wow my go to aswell. Link already wears earrings if no head armour equipped so Amber earrings just made sense

[@fergusonover604]

I got the same but for diff reasons lol I was making a run without upgrading stamina or hearts (outside of the divine beasts hearts), no shrines completion (just blueing them) and no towers to go blind I got the hylian trousers and the hylian shirt and after that i was short on money... when i went to gerudo town i got the earrings since i felt were more effective... and only got the tunic because of the memories I finished the game like that I also completed the ballad like that... biggest pain of my ass of my life lol

I really like the Rito set. Its looks super cool and I spend a lot of time up in the snowy mountains. My favorite outfit combination is the Rito head peice, the champion's tunic, and the Rito pants. This let's me explore the snowy mountains without dying, while also being able to spot hidden enemies before they strike. And the rito head peice has really cool feathers.

[@meesdijkman4263]

If youre exploring mountains, you should do vah medoh helmet (see hp bar), rito shirt and snow boots for walk speed in snow. For desert do desert voe helmet and shirt and sand boots

Stealth set/Stealth shirt, pants with Majoras Mask (practically invisible) 2. Ancient Armor set along with the 4 Amiibo head gears (versatility, Glowy blue weapons all get an 80% attack buff, high defense) 1. Fierce Deity armor (BECAUSE ITS AWESOME!! And that 50% attack buff is nice) Zora set would be #6 because it just looks cool and allows you to attack while swimming

[@endersand6980]

My fav armour was the ancient guardian set cuz when u upgrade it twice in the fairy thing you get a lot of defence and +80% dmg multiplayer to ancient weapons and if u have the max ATTACK up ITS BROKEN I've only had that combo onec in a save of botw

[@TinniestPlane22]

I like the solider set the most, it just looks nice. I of course like it in conjunction with the champion's tunic with it. 2nd favorite is the barbarian set, I use this set mostly just for lynels, hinox, ect and again it looks pleasing. 3rd pick is the ancient gear, as I love hunting guardians!

Put Champion Tunic in A or S tier for highest defense and seeing enemy health number for more accurate battles

[@SuperGoker64]

@@stevecouldbeme9288 I think top of B tier suits it fine for right now. Positives: You can get it early for pretty much nothing Highest defense among any armor Seeing enemy health, an effect which is only shared with DLC armor Negatives: Not part of a set- wearing this means you have to not get any set bonus No effect added Fully upgrading means you need to have access to all 3 dragons, which takes some time to set up (especially if you're a newer player While it is good for early game, its usefulness (especially the enemy health bit) falls off by late game. Also, while defense is important, it isn't a single stat to rule them all. After all, I put the Stealth Set in S-tier _in spite of_ its relatively low defense.

[@stevecouldbeme9288]

@@SuperGoker64 I mean but... isn't the point of armor in games and in real life for defense? And the Ancient Set is also more of a non-early game thing because of the resources needed and you dont usually fight gaurdians early game for a new player so I see the Champions Tunic nearly the same as the Ancient set it would at least be A Tier

[@SuperGoker64]

@@stevecouldbeme9288 True, but real life armor doesn't have effects or set bonuses. Also, for that big investment, the Ancient Set not only provides an effect that allows you to take even less damage from Guardians, but also a set bonus that gives a whopping _eighty percent_ extra power to already good weapons, which can then stack with an Attack Up effect. This is why the Champion's Tunic doesn't rate any higher in my book. Each of the armor I've placed in S and A tiers offers something that the CT cannot. Extra attack power, the ability to sneak around for Sneakstrikes or to make gathering materials easier, survivability in the multiple different cold areas, the list goes on. Heck, even the Thunder Helm (which might I add, only has a defense value of 3 and can't be upgraded) protects you from thunderstorms completely as if you had the full Rubber Set on, but because it's only one piece, you can have something on in your other two slots with other effects to make up for that low defense. So yeah, like I said, the Champion's Tunic is good for early game, especially when you don't have as much to work with and haven't developed your strategies or timing with parries or Flurry Rushes. But the farther you go on, you get more resources so that healing is less of an issue, and you become better at the game, including knowing where enemies are placed in the world. At that point, having something that's strictly high defense and gives you what would then be superfluous info is gonna get outclassed. But hey, by all means, I don't hold a monopoly on tier lists. I'd be interested in seeing where you place things.

[@stevecouldbeme9288]

@@SuperGoker64 I honestly didnt read all that I just skimmed through stuff but the champions tunic is better as someone you combine with the ancient set, for example, Ancient Helm, Champions Tunic, and Ancient Leggings, or since I see you like attack power, Barbarian Helm, Champions Tunic, and Ancient Leggings, (My personal favorite)

I always liked the Wild Set, just because it looks similar to the original 1986 outfit. I figured if I wanted to save Zelda and defeat Ganon, a "maxed-out" Wild Set is perfect for it and it has a nice callback to original game too. It's either this and the Ancient Set for me--which I only got up to Lvl2 'coz I got tired of gathering materials for them (I focued on maxxing the Wild Set more, I guess lol) I also pick the Ancient Set occasionally, just because I use the MCZ a lot since acquiring it. It matches the look with the bike so yeah...

Considering that the Radiant set is basically a luchador outfit, it would be so cool seeing Link using wrestling moves as finishers, like suplexing Bokoblins, backbreaking Lizalfos or choking Lynels.

[@egacool]

i always use the ancient set and agree with this, it has such high defense and has the ancient proficiency buff which makes ancient weapons better to use because it makes them deal such high damage. ancient weapons become pretty common mostly because of trial of strength shrines

I like the ancient armor. It is incredibly powerful with any weapon of choice with 3 attack up potions/food. It’s defense is second highest in the game. It has the most powerful attack boost and has a good design.

[@Rocco049]

My favorite combo as of yet is the Hylian garb's chest piece and hood, and the soldier's greaves. it looks good and (as I haven't had the game that long) it's my best combination because I upgraded the Hylian stuff before the soldier's armor.

I either run champion's tunic, hylian trousers, and amber earings because it is the BotW Link, and bc the amber earrings don't change too much, or I run a green-dyed hylian tunic, hylian trousers, and the cap of the wild as it looks very similar to the iconic Link with a little BotW sprinkled in. Neither of the two are sets but they are the most fun to play as for me.

[@UmbraX1]

i didn’t even research which armour was the best, i just felt in my gut that ancient was great cause i read somewhere that it had the ancient proficiency bonus

[@wutmagna7222]

I think this proves to be a fine enough baseline, but it could be improved for a more comprehensive rating. For example, how expensive or hard to get is the armor? how easy is it to upgrade? Does it hold any value outside of being armor (i.e. the Wild set being a reward for clearing every shrine)? How aesthetically pleasing is it? How are the dyeing options? How easily can one mix and match pieces of the armor set with different armor pieces? Are there any unique abilities unlocked by wearing the armor as well as how useful those abilities are? All this in mind, under such a system, I feel the Zora set would score a great deal higher. It's gorgeous, it lets you preform the aquatic spin dash, let's you climb waterfalls (and this skip most of Hyrule Castle), it's easy to obtain pretty early on in the game, and it's also the last memento of the most tragic character in the game. It might not have the raw defensive factor of the Ancient set, but IT WAS MADE WITH LOVE DAMMIT!!!

[@wutmagna7222]

I'm not coping, you're coping.

[@andrewlewis8135]

If only Zelda had animal crossing music

[@heroofthebananas9668]

For me, I would use Champion's Tunic along with Ancient Greaves and Diamond Circlet so it is practically the strongest armor set in terms of defense because of Champion's Tunic being the strongest in base defense and Ancient Set being the strongest set in the game. I mostly use because it fits better than the Ancient Helm. Some might argue that it's better because it helps with the ancient profiency 80% set bonus with the Ancient Soldier set but because I am wearing the Champion's Tunic, I didn't really bother to use the Ancient Helm. Plus, I read in the Zelda Wiki that the Circlet gives a secret bonus of 20% Ancient Profiency. I don't know if it is true but I'll stick to the Circlet anyway since I like how it looks. Edit: For a cheaper version, I would probably wear either Champion's Tunic with Soldier set for it's defense or the Tunic with the Soldier Greaves and Amber Earrings. It won't have the Guardian Resist that comes with the Diamond Circlet and Ancient Set but it is cheaper.

[@kingsquidgames09]

my favorite is the Zora set because if you dye it white it looks like a blooper and the ancient set but with the vah rudania helm because it just looks sick

A good idea for stopping the 4 way tie in second is on how practical they would be or which would get more use, for example, the Zora armor and the climbing gear both tie, but since the game requires more climbing than waterfalls throughout the game, climbing gear would win.

I love most of these except the tingle set: link looks so dorky in it 😂 I love the champions tunic too. I was wondering though if anyone knows what happens when you upgrade the champions tunic? I haven’t noticed any difference when I upgraded it at the great fairy fountain. I know that it allows you to see enemies health bar but other than that does it do anything else? 💗

I don't think it does, just increases the defence. Could be wrong, though.

[@tiare397]

@@Leekodot15 okay so it increases defence too. Do you happen to know how it is defense wise compared to other armour?

[@Leekodot15]

@@tiare397 ...Max is 32 defence. I don't jave everything unlocked, so I can't tell you where that places it in comparison to everything else. I recommend looking it up on a wiki.

@@Leekodot15 thank you! Yeah I’ll look it up but thanks for telling me anyway ☺️☺️

It has the highest raw armor in the game. But has no set effects. There IS a use for it though. You can use the gerudo helmet the champions tunic and the ancient legs to have electric immunity while having more defense than the rubber suit and also getting the ability to see hp via the tunic and the guardian resist via the ancient legs so it has its niche outside just raw defense.
