Most DLC armor sets and pieces are only improved by 25 or 50% (Twinkling and regular Titanite, respectively).įor example, Faraam set has 295 physical defense in its base state, 442.5 (which is rounded up to 443 in the wiki page) as a +5 and 590 in a +10 state (which also differs a little from the wiki page). Some of the heavier armor sets are improved by 40% (Velstadt, Vengarl, Dragonrider, Looking Glass Knight, Smelter Demon, Havel).

To view individual pieces of armor please see the Helms, Chests, Gauntlets, and Leggings pages. Poise has also made a return through armor sets as well.Īrmor is also a cosmetic choice, and individual pieces can be mixed and matched to create an optimized setup, from a defensive and fashion perspective. Rolling and movement speeds have changed now but in order to fast roll properly you now need Adaptability. A piece's defenses now scales with the player's Vitality has and it affects how fast you can roll. Armor works differently in Dark Souls 2 than in previous titles.
