Heavier armor slows the wearer, but boosts protection. Carrying capacity rises with the Resilience stat or the Weapon Talisman. For mages who invest more in Intellect and Spellcraft rather than stamina, light armor is often preferable because it keeps agility and avoids vulnerability to attacks.
The Dragon Knight armor balances lightness with solid durability, making it suitable for spellcasters who still want protection. For pure warriors, a heavier suit of dragon armor offers greater resilience, a topic covered later in this guide.
Where to find the Dragon Knight armor
The journey starts at Crushed Farum Azul, where the boss Two of Divine Skin awaits. This encounter is detailed in a related guide.
Next, travel to the Dragon Temple Roof grace point.
Proceed downward and overcome two hindering foes.
Take the stairs, then turn left and leap onto a floating wall segment. From there, an elevator can be reached, though it is not required. Circle around to discover a chest guarded by the Dragon Knight armor set.
Where to find the Ugly Dragon Armor
Despite the rough name, this armor has a clean, stylish silhouette and strong protection, though its weight is high. It suits pure warriors or mixed builds that invest in resilience.
Progress through the main story to reach the Great Bridge Precincts grace point.
Ascend the stairs to face a tough opponent near the Beast Priest. This guard is not a boss, so calling a mimic for help is ineffective. After defeating him, the armor is yours.
